We released PostSharp.Community.Packer, a free and open-source tool that you can use to pack your .NET Framework application into a single .exe file for distribution. Coming up next: Why are my EXEs so big?

Just plain stupid...
Those still targeting .NET Framework (like me) already have a deployment route... Those going for the .NET Core have these features platform independent already...
So a zipper that includes your referenced binaries in the exe totally unnecessary...
(and it will include also references that the linker discarded as unused)

The new tools are meant to help the developers of password managers and Apple hopes the tools will reduce the instances where users chose their own password rather than rely on the password manager. Because we were holding them wrong?

There have been a surprising number of studies in recent years examining the effects of swearing, specifically whether it can help relieve pain—either physical or psychological (as in the case of traumatic memories or events). In case you need some therapeutic assistance, let fly the elephants!

Perhaps change the title slightly? On the main page, it ends after the work "pain", which changes the meaning!

A hapless IT bod found the Have I Been Pwned service (HIBP) answering its own question in a way he really didn’t want – after a breach report including a SQL string KO’d his company’s helpdesk ticket system. Yes. Yes they were pwned.

Did you really intend the subject line to read "helldesk"? It does seem appropriate, from so many perspectives!

My fingers are funnier than I am today. I guess I should fix it, at least for the mailing (I won’t bother with it above, as I need to remind my fingers to try and be funny more often).
Oh - I take it back. Seems that’s how The Register had it. They are always so good that way...

I wouldn't be surprised if the register has never written an article about a helpdesk....

The Tesla smashed into the truck and its front end pierced through the roof Speaking about Elon Musk breaking up something...
Luckily enough no personal injuries to be regretted.
I have read that the "Autopilot" relies only in the camera images... no lasers or no ultrasonic for distance meassurments against potential collision objects. What could go wrong?
Only thing I am sure is... I won't be using automatic driving for a good while. Neither by Tesla nor by other manufacturers.

I've driven on snow-covered roads where there is little to go by other than the area that is flat and above the height of the shoulders. Even the road signs and reflectors can be plastered with snow. It's challenging enough for a person, let alone an automated driving system. I won't be using one anytime soon either.

I have tried to drive an automatic transmission car on these slippery lanes (I don't know the English term; the driving surface is covered with a mixture of oil and water to make it extremely slippery. They are for learning how to handle a car when it looses the grip, a manatory part of Norwegian driver's training). No clutch pedal to set the wheels freerolling to regain the grip.
It took me only one visit to the training lane to decide that I will never buy a car without a clutch pedal. Not as long as much of my driving is in Norway or other countries with similar winter conditions.

I understand they use parallax measurement of distance. The problem here is that when what the car has in front of itself is the broadside of a white semitrailer there's nothing to measure any distance against.
So it thinks it's the sky above the ground.
This is not the first accident of this kind, and I don't think it will be the last either.

There's another thing the AI missed.
If you watch the video you will see other cars changing lanes, with the car monitoring the road it's interesting that it was unable to pick up the pattern of the other cars moving out of the lane.

Yeah, but that makes the computer think, "Great, I have the lane for myself"

That could partly explain why the car didn't brake, but why didn't the driver brake? You cannot, as a driver, just turn on the autpilot and state that "Now I have no responsibility for the car any more".
