“What is this a picture of?” Humans can usually answer such questions instantly, but in the past it’s always seemed out of reach for computers to do this. For nearly 40 years I’ve been sure computers would eventually get there—but I’ve wondered when. "Looks more. Like a sycamore. To me."

A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king."

C++, C#, and Visual Basic .Net make the biggest popularity gains in May's Tiobe index. "Hooray for our side"
I'll completely ignore the mention of C++ as a "Microsoft language"

Bot traffic surpassed humans this year, now accounting for 59 percent of all site visits, according to a new report. And I'm sick of "The Man" telling me what to browse!

The Internet giant is flipping common corporate security practice on its head, shifting away from the idea of a trusted internal corporate network secured by perimeter devices such as firewalls, in favor of a model where corporate data can be accessed from anywhere with the right device and user credentials. "Open sesame"

This actually makes a lot of sense - only when you free your mind form the myth of a secure boundary can you start to do security properly.

If Standard C++ is so great, why isn’t anyone using it to write Windows apps with the Windows Runtime? Because Standard C++ is not enough. I thought that's what VB was for?

Standard C++ is enough. It's just that the average programmer is not enough.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

One year ago, a European court ruled that Google should comply with requests from individuals to remove certain results from search results; it became known as the Right To Be Forgotten. Twelve months after the initial ruling, Google has published a new transparency report that shows it rejects more requests than it complies with. "You can check-out any time you like, but you can never leave"

A study has found that a large percentage of Americans are a little foggy on what cloud computing actually is. Well, if they didn't... why would they call it cloud computing?
Not (as many would think) just a reason to laugh at those living in "Canada's bitch", as I'm sure it spreads past the border.

Quote: A whopping 51 per cent believe that a storm could play havoc with cloud computing. ...and I'm one of them and I DO know what "the cloud" means.
If a meteorological storm causes power / communication outages it can wreak havoc with one's ability to access data & apps in the cloud.
But lets not let that stop us from click-baiting.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.
