One thing that surprised me was that the code itself was rarely the problem. He occasionally had some comments about the way I wrote or structured the code, but what I clearly had no idea about is testing my code. "You know what happens when you assume."
And yes, obligatory xkcd[^]

Unlike with earlier Windows releases, Microsoft has now switched to a new update cadence with Windows 10, promising far more frequent improvements and additions to the OS - and the first post-launch update may be just a week away. Or as most people express it, "the real Windows 10 release date"

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?

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"?

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?

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.
