Next year will be the monochromatic dark theme look.
The following year will revert to the block look, no curves allowed.
The third year the icons will be invisible requiring psychic training.
The fourth year there will be no icons, as AI will know what you want to do.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

With completed consumption support, you can now call any Windows APIs (past, present, and future) using the Rust language projection. I thought the vinyl ones didn't have that problem?

A bottle of French wine that orbited the Earth for more than a year has been put up for sale. It's no Romulan Ale, but it might put you in orbit

To pay almost (or maybe over) 1 million to open the bottle and have vinegar...
On the other hand... if the bottle was correctly closed... Do you really think that ingravity will affect something?

Any sediment in the bottle wouldn't sink to the side of the bottle while it was in space. Some wine bottles "travel" poorly, presumably because the shaking mixes the sediment in with the wine, and it takes a while for the sediment to resettle. I expect something similar to happen to this bottle. Otherwise - no, I doubt microgravity will have much of an effect on the wine.
If the person who buys this wine could be persuaded to also buy an earthbound bottle of the same vintage, perhaps the comparison would receive an ig-nobel award next year.

Some of the first data on user behavior exceeds advertisers' worst fears. Seems people don't like companies tracking them. Whodathunkit?

Surprises me they thought nearly 40% would opt in!
As with anything though, I’d be curious what would happen if they swapped the buttons over, as I'm sure 90% of uses just select the first option.

Fortunately - to Apple - it is about application tracking... At the OS level nothing changed...

Pyston, a faster implementation of Python, releases version 2.2 - and it's now open-sourced. Who debugs their Python code anyway?

Off topic, but...
Quote: Dropbox wrote its backend services and its desktop client almost entirely in Python and it even hired Python creator Guido van Rossum in 2013 to help wrangle its four million lines of code written in Python
Can someone explain to me how Dropbox could possible be 4M lines of code?
I've written apps that designed communication satellites, drawing the frequency plan and the entire switch network in Visio, calculating equipment requirements, mass, solar and battery requirements, generating the wiring diagrams, of course everything is DB persisted, etc., and that didn't even come close 1% of the Dropbox code.
Why? Why? Why?[^]

Research from James Cook University shows increasingly complex website password restrictions often leave users frustrated and lead to poor password security. So maybe I can drop the '1' at the end now?

Hear, hear! I tried to use an easy-to-use password for everything that satisfies the simple 'string-together' rule, but was denied because it didn't have a number or special symbol in it. Like I said, it is a simple but secure password which I may as well share, since I couldn't use it anywhere: "everyoneElseIsAnIdiot".
Just kidding! It made me laugh, though...

Quote: the tougher the constraints of creating the passwords the safer users feel with their information The deception seems to work for some people.
In my experience, enormous constraints mean just the opposite thing: unsafe passwords, and - I am pretty sure - low quality of safeguards on their side.
Why are ÄäÖöÜü߀§ (available on German keyboard but not US keyboard) so often not acceptable? Because they store passwords using the absoulety safe method of "ASCII encryption"?

We have made substantial runtime performance improvements in the x86/x64 C++ compiler for Visual Studio’s default debug configuration. Great news for those that forget to switch to Release builds before shipping
