The truth is, most software systems don’t have automated tests for everything. What should we prioritize? "Here there be dragons"

I would be happy if some companies had automated tests for something at least

Jozef Jarosciak just put millions of early Usenet posts on a browsable archive for the first time. Sadly, 1.1 million of them are, "What's this Usenet thing?"
And another 300,000 are, "ASL?"

Not to forget...
"Test"
"Do you read me?"
and...
"Why the does this piece of... not work?"

Every time that critical patches come out for any operating system, device or app that we think you might be using, you can predict in advance what we’re going to say. Patch early, patch often. "I see you have the machine that goes 'ping!'."

Microsoft researchers have built an artificial intelligence system that can generate captions for images that are, in many cases, more accurate than the descriptions people write. But it's still not doing blurbs yet, is it? Is it?!

Ever since Nick Bostrom of the University of Oxford wrote a seminal paper about the simulation argument in 2003, philosophers, physicists, technologists and, yes, comedians have been grappling with the idea of our reality being a simulacrum. Chance of bad math? A little higher
|
|
|
|
|
The first rule of a simulation is, don't let the participants even think they are in a simulation.
Once they start down that thought path, everything you wanted to test with regards to the simulation has to be thrown out.
Uh oh.
|
|
|
|
|
Maybe the purpose of the simulation is to see how long it'll take 'em to figure out that they're in one.
|
|
|
|

Technically, the chances are either 0% or 100%. Anything in between makes no sense.

In the corporate world, managers know how to interpret standard metrics, especially when those are accompanied by dollar signs. But just as flower boxes can suggest that a community is blooming, managers can judge whether their teams are healthy by looking for subtler signs. (items_in_backlog/num_developers)*(num_managers^3)

Microsoft says that Windows 10 and Windows Server users will be blocked from installing incorrectly formatted third-party drivers after deploying this month's cumulative updates. That should help with the first-party drivers as well
I'm really surprised it took them this long.
