Today, President Obama issued an executive order establishing the National Strategic Computing Intiative — essentially a federal strategy for making sure America leads the field in supercomputers. I guess he'll need a hobby after "retiring"?

How to apply this new style to businesses trying to become better at building and delivering software. Silly me. I always though it was about cutting your budget in half

While lasers were invented in 1960 and are commonly used in many applications, one characteristic of the technology has proven unattainable. No one has been able to create a laser that beams white light. Now how are we going to tell the Joes from Cobra?

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

Quote: Ning's group has already shown that their structures could cover as much as 70 percent more colors than the current display industry standard.
But 99% of software will still assume an sRGB color space and over-saturate colors on anything else.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

The vulnerability affects more than half of all Android devices, say researchers. Wow, Android really is the new Windows
(And the new Windows is definitely not like the old Windows)

The flaw appears to be my 2 yr old daughter. She gets her hands on any electronics, they're quickly bricked.

Dunking them in her drinks will do that

That's two-year-olds for you. Any unbreakable toys they have are useful for breaking other toys.
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.

"Unbreakable" you say? I once heard people say that their code is unbreakable... It's only unbreakable because someone with enough will/stupidity has not yet broken it beyond repair.

So... I guess that means all Android phones ship with the virus pre-installed? Because my last one was unresponsive and mostly useless out of the box.

Blazingly fast performance, prevention of nearly all segfaults and low-level control and performance without sacrificing safety or abstractions – these are the promises made by the 1.0 release of Rust. And that’s just the start. Because rust never sleeps
