Thanks - I had looked to see if it was based on a blog post, but didn't think about C9.

But if they did that, people wouldn't think they had some kind of exclusive access to MS developers.

I recently attended Facebook’s F8 developer conference in San Francisco, where I had a revelation on why it is going to be impossible to succeed as a technology vendor in the long run without deeply embracing open source. Of the many great presentations I listened to, I was most captivated by the ones that explained how Facebook internally developed software. I was impressed by how quickly the company is turning such important IP back into the community. It is eating the world, but will it also chew it up and spit it out?

A PayPal executive who works with engineers and developers to find and test new technologies, now says that embeddable, injectable, and ingestible devices are the next wave in identification for mobile payments and other sensitive online interactions. So much for crappy passwords
Apologies if any kid sisters are offended by a word they probably used in kindergarten.

As long as they're gluten free, organic, GMO free, no canola oil, and don't use processed sugar and use only Himalayan pink salt, then I'm happy to ingest my devices.

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

... and to think, everyone thought the issue was the missing Start button, when all along it was the lack of Solitaire.
I wonder... if the real reason the Start button was removed was because it had a dependency on Solitaire. So they have to bring back Solitaire in order to get the Start button back.
It wouldn't surprise me, it's software after all.

|

What a nonsense. It was never gone, it's just installed out of the box again.
|
|
|
|

Hmm, I don't see the original Solitaire on my Win 8 box. (I see other games).

If you mean by "original" the one that was shipped with Windows 7, then yes, this one is gone, but it was replaced by an app in Windows 8/8.1 you have to download from the Store. But even the Windows 7 one wasn't the "original", it was a polished replacement for the one shipped with Windows XP and earlier. So technically, the game itself was never gone, it just wasn't part of the OS in Windows 8/8.1 anymore.

I thought they'd changed their official name to "EY" - which is beast said in a comedy Yorkshire accent.

That's a pretty odd way to pronounce beast, even in Yorkshire.
