Better than 8 doesn't tell me anything meaningful. How does it stack up against w7's numbers? Both projected from a few months after launch, and in terms of what the actual upgrade rate was seen to be after the fact?
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?

Pod. Work group. Committee. Autonomous collective. Whatever you call it, you’re part of one at Google and probably wherever you work: a team. So if we know what makes managers great, why don’t we know what makes a team great? Bonus #6: Not whatever the Google+ team does

Hey, that's just hurtful. Come on.
Google+ is a million times better than Facebook, okay? Okay?

Viewing agile as a business movement—not just a development movement—can influence improved alignment between development teams and key stakeholders such as sales, marketing and customer service. Adopting the agile mindset of team-based work and continual improvement in business functions could even improve basic processes such as customer service and support. Duh, when will businesses get it?

Haha, I mean what is agile really anyway? Working together? Do we really need a methodology to tell us we should work together?

That's nice, but when are they going to port WPF and give us a native IDE that runs under Linux?

Scientists at the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST) have proven beyond reasonable doubt that Einstein was wrong about one of the main principles of quantum mechanics and that "spooky action at a distance" is actually real. Spooky

Einstein was wrong a lot. But I guess so was Edison.

Science IS wrong, it is ALWAYS wrong. Because we discover things bit by bit, approximating and with finite datasets limited by technology - which evolves when we are at least partially right, allowing us to discover whole new data that point out the errors and mistakes of the cycle before, then we make new extrapolations and approximationx which are limited by technology, which evolves...

No, it's not wrong. It's just not completely right. Or more commonly: it's correct to within a certain margin of error.

Define "width of universe".

Everything is relative... until it becomes absolute
Everything is right... until it is proved wrong
It has been needed some decades to find this out. Maybe in some decades more this is wrong as well.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

From headline I thought this was referring to relativity. Instead, it's just a more robust confirmation of quantum entanglement.
