Everybody’s talking about ambient computing. And there is so much to talk about. But with all this chatter comes confusion. People disagree on what ambient computing is, how it works and what it’s for. So let’s bring clarity to this muddled and confused concept. "Computing that happens in the background without the active participation of the user."

Quote: In 20 years, the idea of picking up a device or sitting down at a computer to actively use it will seem quaintly antiquated. All computing will be ambient — all around us all the time, whispering in our ear, augmenting the real world through our prescription eyeglasses and car windshields, perceiving our emotions and desires and taking action in the background to help us reach our business goals and live a better life. To get your head where the author;s head was when he wrote this:
Take 2 well-worn paperback copies of "1984" by Orwell. Rip off the front and back covers. Shred the covers. Puree the shredded covers with cinnamon and black-goat's milk. Drink.

Python is an important piece of Microsoft’s future in the cloud, being one of the essential languages for services and teams to support, as well as the most popular choice for the rapidly growing field of data science and analytics both inside and outside of the company. But Python hasn’t always had such a prestigious position around Microsoft. The rise of Python. Someone else would make an inappropriate joke in here, but I shan't.

"Senator, we run ads." That's what Mark Zuckerberg told Senator Orrin Hatch earlier this year during his congressional testimony when asked to describe Facebook's business model. Then let's call Facebook a ... personal data whore.

By Friday afternoon the head of the SIPC had told reporters that SIPC would not insure the accounts, and had reported Robinhood to the Securities and Exchange Commission. And by Friday evening Robinhood Checking & Savings was no more. Well that was fast.

CenturyLink briefly disabled the Internet connections of customers in Utah last week and allowed them back online only after they acknowledged an offer to purchase filtering software. Put down the ad, just, take my money and go. Don't hurt my internet.

I have only one thing to say to the litigators:
Oh, for **ck's sake, grow up!
And that's from someone who's not by any stretch of the imagination an apple fan.

i hope the public win vs apple so that the indeed stop "seeks to prevent Apple from continuing this practice" of deception and also of
"The iPhone X Product is advertised as having 2436×1125 pixels, but in fact does not use true pixels with red, green, and blue subpixels in each pixel," the complaint states. "Instead, the Product has only false screen pixels, with just two subpixels per false pixel."

Oh, for God's sake!
Define "pixel".
Is it, as you say, "a thing with a red, a green, and a blue dot"
Or is it (as the rest of the entire world says) "the smallest unit of a digital image or graphic that can be displayed and represented on a digital display device".
Just because 70-year-old CRT TV pixels had red, green, and blue dots does not mean that the technology cannot be improved upon.
I am absolutely not a fan of apple (which is obvious to anyone who's been around here a while), but there is p1ss-all wrong with the screens on their hand-held devices -- whether they're stuck using 1960s technology or more up-to-date and sophisticated kit.
This lawsuit is a disgrace, as are most lawsuits involving computer-tech companies.

Reminds me of the monitor lawsuit where manufacturers were counting the overscan area in their diagonal measurement. Trying to find the actual size was difficult.
It sounded trivial but it was false advertising.

Very few animals have ever passed the mirror test for self-recognition — even most primates fail it. The news that a fish seemed to recognize itself in one recent study has made psychologists and animal behaviorists wonder anew what (if anything) the mirror test proves. Fine I'll say it if no one else will. Maybe it's just a smart fish.

I wouldn't put too much stock by this report. Could turn out to be a red herring.

It was used to its own reef-lection?
(The self recognition test has always been problematic as it is biased to animals that a sight-centric. Animals that rely on scent or aural clues cannot easily be fooled by a mirror)

And now Microsoft is planning to bring these things together with a Microsoft 365 subscription aimed at non-corporate users Let's play a game called, "what does it come bundled with?" Fair warning: The result of this game will influence my buy.
