They set their goals too lofty. Should have started smaller... like something that would go to the refrigerator and automatically retrieve a beer.

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.

Given a grappling hook and a sheet metal cutter, we could have quite a party freeloading off one of those trucks.
EDIT: Oops - just noticed that was American Bud - screw that, that's torture. Czech Bud is perfectly acceptable.

To help track the constantly shifting security terrain and meet demand for insights, twice each year Microsoft publishes the Security Intelligence Report (SIR), a comprehensive security analysis based on data we collect from around the world. Did "calls from 'Microsoft Technical Support'" make the list?

It includes support for additional Linux distributions, has many updates and is the first Current release. "Restart the core somehow?"

1.1 can't come soon enough...

Having played around with the first version, I suspect we won't see real improvements until v3.

In these versions (1.x) - as was stated - Microsoft will fill the gaps of the core functionality and fix bugs. Also test more Linux distros and some compatibility with existing projects... I would say, that these are real improvements, but the true improvement is the fact that .NET came out of its shell and start taking new positions...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

This new major version of Node.js includes: V8 5.4 which brings along with 98% coverage of ES6 language features, improved reliability and performance, and a new experimental URL parser based on the WHATWG URL standard. Now giving you even more reason to complain about JS taking over the world

Microsoft may have missed out on mobile but CEO Satya Nadella says his company won't make the same mistake with augmented reality and virtual reality. If only they had a five year head start on the iPhone...
OK, maybe they needed a six year head start?

I'm praying the day Satya would leave MS. He just backward MS from Mobile industry. Not to mention killing Nokia. So sad...

"We clearly missed the mobile phone"
Not only that, but each successive iteration abandoned existing customers to oblivion due to incompatiblity, so they couldn't retain any customers either.

They were too busy forcing mobile-phone UIs onto desktops to actually do anything with the phones.

Microsoft has been actively missing the embedded space since 2006. I find Windows CE (Windows Embedded Compact) to be the best non-real time embedded OS with the overall best development support. Yet, Microsoft has let it languish. Granted, I'm being entirely selfish here since I've been working with embedded Linux, which is arguably the worst non-real time embedded OS.

The Wi-Fi Alliance is now beginning to certify smartphones, laptops, routers, and other devices that include a super-fast Wi-Fi standard called WiGig, which nearly doubles Wi-Fi’s current top speed "Third gear, hang on tight"

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?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Unless they solve WiFi congestion, this won't do a whole lot of good.

Over the last few months, we have heard a lot of requests with respect to adding capability to Visual Studio Code to allow developers to build their C/C++ application. Build it like it's 1999
|
|
|
|
|
The most important point is, that Visual Studio Code now also runs on Linux and the MacOS.

I've tried it several times and always find it too... Linuxy. Meaning, you have to fiddle way to much with everything. I'd also say it tries to be a jack of all trades and thus is a master of none. In the end, when working on Linux, I find CLion to be vastly superior.

Attackers can reliably flip bits in physical memory cells in order to compromise mobile devices and computers. The problem with turning it off and on again
At least if you do it really fast.
