This post will explain what the recently-finalized C++17 Standard has done with old features, and what to expect from future VS 2017 toolset updates. The C++ language has been deprecated. Recommend you replace with JavaScript.

Microsoft has released an out-of-band patch for two severe flaws in Windows Defender discovered by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC), a unit of UK spy agency GCHQ that dispenses cyber defense advice to the government and public. Maybe we'll rename it Defendish?

Research presented this week at the Black Hat Europe 2017 security conference has revealed that several popular interpreted programming languages are affected by severe vulnerabilities that expose apps built on these languages to attacks. "Everyone said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built in all the same, just to show them."
But still: interpreted languages might be insecure? Tell me more of this hidden wisdom.

We reported a week ago on Microsoft responding rather carelessly to a request to bring Android apps to Windows 10 Mobile, to make up for the efflux of apps from the store. It's dead man, move on

A few days ago we released Visual Studio 2017 version 15.5 and an update to Visual Studio for Mac, and today we are releasing the first preview of the next minor update: Visual Studio 2017 version 15.6. Why waste time developing, when you can just download and install a new version of VS every few days?

I don't have the time (or the inclination to act as an unpaid beta tester; I only download the released version.
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.

Very interesting and a huge miss for MIcrosoft.
They show you how to connect to Azure data using the mobile app you create.
==>> The example app is an Android app.
If only Microsoft had a Mobile device. If only! I guess Surface doesn't count -- according to this book anyways.

If management had its say, there would be a committee created to determine the optimal rise and set times, then someone would suggest altering the color of each sunrise and sunset, then someone else would recommend that the sun simply stay stationary at noon. And then there would be a separate committee formed to decide on moonrise and moonset, which would come up with conflicting design ideas, and eventually the entire thing would be implemented in a duck-typed language with a function called "whenever."
