The article said: Microsoft states they are performing these calls in order to get a better understanding of how a feature is being used while they are in development. I can save people a lot of phone bills.
It's used to switch between apps, you F***ing morons!
The same as it's been used since windows 3 (and maybe earlier; I didn't use earlier versions).
So what they're doing is looking for more ways to break it*, probably by making it work by touching or clicking the screen on a white square that's invisible on a white background.
* They already broke the functionality that allowed you to hold alt+tab, and use the arrow keys to move between the open apps -- including up and down and backward

FYI, use the WIN key and Tab to move through your windows with arrow keys, by the way!

Works for me. It's just you.

Let's see you move up and down through the array of open windows, not side-to-side along the row.

Adobe isn't just putting Flash on ice. In the wake of customer emails, the software giant has signaled that it will discontinue Shockwave for Windows on April 9th, 2019. "You cannot kill what is already dead"

My mind is over complicating how difficult or easy will old 2000s web games will be playable in the future.
Hardware based console games are mostly can be emulated, or original hardware restored.
How much of a hurdle will it be to run a VM or Windows XP, install Firefox 5, then install Adobe Flash, just to find it complain "permission to run has been disabled due to lack of fetching Ads to server before the game"

I'm surprised someone hasn't recommended using Docker containers yet.

Perhaps we should use Docker containers instead?
There, happy now?
BTW - What exactly are Docker containers again?

Something DevOps guys should know about and be eager to implement. Or so I'm told...

The free, online course is a master class series that aims to empower business leaders to lead with confidence in the age of AI. I predict some "new direction" coming from a lot of CEOs

God almighty.
You'd think AI were something special, that can be used for everything.
It's really not.
Everyone who now thinks "Sh1t, I wish we'd never bothered with this useless 'cloud' cr@p" should remember that feeling, when reading all the AI hype.

A student or a programmer hired from Freelancer.com? Doesn't really matter. Both don't know that many things about password security. This is why we can't have nice things

The top two lessons I've learned when starting a new project:
1. Implement instrumentation first (exception handling, error logging, etc)
2. Implement security correctly second (sometimes #1 requires doing #2 first depending on your reporting mechanisms)
Then get on with the process of actually implementing the project.
Full disclosure: I often ignore those two lessons.

Beyond password security issues, some really senior professionals will invent their own encryption methods.

One of the delights of my professional life was encountering a login dialog that used a Caesar Cipher (Practical Cryptography) to "encrypt" passwords. I could probably have cracked that when I was eight years old.
