There are still ways to run DOS apps under 64-bit Windows and Linux, and a lot of free apps to choose from. As nature intended

At least eight robotaxis from the General Motors subsidiary navigated to the same street corner and then stopped in the middle of the road, blocking traffic. This is how civilization falls...with traffic jams

Are we sure the cars were confused? Maybe they were waiting for the homeless camp, of which San Francisco is notorious for, to move out of the way.

Somebody's radar must be running on extremely slowly propagating waves.
The fix was rolled out to all my Ubuntu systems in January, and refined in February.
apt changelog policykit-1 for those that are interested.
And as it's a local privilege escalation, I have worse problem if someone is in a position to exploit it.

A survey of 250 software developers and architects in the U.S. found nearly three-quarters of respondents (74%) reported that the average cost of an application modernization project is nearly $1.5 million, with 79% noting that at least one of these projects has failed. Just bolt a few tailfins on it and call it done

Ya know, in the car enthusiast community, we have a saying - "Buy once, cry once."
Modernizing a monolithic application does indeed cost a lot, but should be done with an eye on maintainability and using lessons learned about what is changed, implementing a degree of future-proofing into the new code base. The cost for the modernization will ALWAYS be less than the cost of future maintenance.

Toxic discussions on open-source GitHub projects tend to involve entitlement, subtle insults, and arrogance, according to an academic study. Bad behaviour amongst developers? It can't exist!

I think what they're trying to say is that just because you're a developer, doesn't mean that you aren't subject to human nature.

The sixth edition of the C# language specification allows for more openness and community participation in changes to the language, Microsoft said. Good news for those waiting for it to be standardized.
Yeah, yeah. Sixth edition. Still, let's call it ECMA# from now on.

Phishing simulator data from Kaspersky’s Security Awareness Platform shows that workers tend to not notice pitfalls hidden in emails devoted to corporate issues and delivery problem notifications, with one in five (16% to 18%) clicking the link in the email templates imitating these phishing attacks.
