The Las Vegas surgeon can lengthen patients' legs via a painful months-long process. Did people think "Gattaca" was a documentary?
Or aspirational?

A story in two parts:
1) Tech-bros.
2) Money with wings.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Get ready for the catchy 'Intel Processor' badge instead. How about "386" - that still good?

Actually, it isn't. Intel originally changed from numbers to names (e.g. 80586 to Pentium) because numbers could not be trademarked.

I wonder if they’ll have trouble trademarking “Intel processor”?

I wonder if they got signoff from the OEMs this time or just don't care.
They tried to do this about a decade ago, shortly after the Core branding came out, but had to backpedal after Dell, HP, Acer, etc all threw tantrums because: "When shopping for cheap crappy race to the bottom computers our clueless customers 'know' that Pentium or Celeron badges mean it's a 'good' computer." 😭🤮

My goal is to explore whether there's a way we can evolve C++ itself to become 10x simpler, safer, and more toolable. Why create a new language, when you can just change the syntax of the old one?

He'd better hide, a certain codewitch we all know might come to kick his scrawny little backside.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.

Open source developers are making the command line more friendly—and more powerful. We have to go forward - to the the past

Gotta make "rd <dir> /s" more powerful

Is this a bug, or a feature?

Boffins at the University of Michigan in the US and Zhejiang University in China want to highlight how bespectacled video conferencing participants are inadvertently revealing sensitive on-screen information via reflections in their eyeglasses. Another reason to avoid Zoom meetings
""Our models and experimental results in a controlled lab setting show it is possible to reconstruct and recognize with over 75 percent accuracy on-screen texts that have heights as small as 10 mm with a 720p webcam." That corresponds to 28 pt, a font size commonly used for headings and small headlines." <- Time to stop working on your headlines during that team meeting?

I got the idea to do something like that many years ago!
But then, with the amount of energy and dedication that characterize me those last 10 to 20 years... I did f*** all!
