So you are telling me that no matter what happens, I never need to worry about the vulnerability in that article! That's good news!

Exactly.
If you have access to the machine, just use RunAsSystem. Where's the difference?

How can anyone be deemed to have accepted a contract without (a) being given the opportunity to read it, and (b) being given the opportunity to decline it? And how can anyone (other than Congress or the several State legislatures) unilaterally modify US contract law? And do they really believe that this would pass muster in any other country?!
This appears to be scaremongering at its worst!

Yeah, I wasn't sure how it would go from, "Lawyers association votes on ToS wording" to, "New law". I think I missed that episode of Schoolhouse Rock!
Of course, if the lawyer's association passed it, I'm sure the politicians would rubber stamp it.

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?

In this post we’re going to look at what we, the Python team, have done to make Python easier to install on Windows by helping the community publish to the Microsoft Store and, in collaboration with Windows, adding a default “python.exe” command to help find it. I guess I have to upgrade then

Superconductivity offers the promise of hyper-efficient electric motors, ultra powerful magnets, and the transmission of electricity without losses. Not cool!
Actually, super cool if they can fix that pressure problem, and it sounds like a useful project for computer modelling.

Yes, there's a community that contributes things to Go, but Google is the gatekeeper for these community contributions So let's just keep using Java and C#

With Oracle now charging for Java, I believe your list can be reduced by one.

Somehow, I missed that announcement. I suspect Java will be a lot less popular in Universities from this point onwards.

In a blog post today, Google disclosed that it recently discovered a bug that caused some portion of G Suite users to have their passwords stored in plain text. Good thing no one uses their stuff
Oh, just the corporate accounts. Well then, nothing important would have been stored there then.

To fully protect yourself from potential Zombieload attacks, vendors and early benchmarks show you'll face performance losses of up to 40%. Can't we just shoot them in the head (twice)?

North Carolina State University researchers have developed a new framework for building deep neural networks via grammar-guided network generators. From someone (very) outside of the field, it really seems like we've hit an inflection point on AI dev
