There seems to be a lot of confusion around the implementation of C++20 coroutines, which I think is due to the draft technical specification for C++20 stating that coroutines are a work in progress so we can’t expect full compiler and library support at this point in time. Yield to the partially completed feature!

Being a global company has its perks. There’s a lot of money to be made overseas. But the biggest US tech companies are finding out that there’s also a downside: Every country where you make money is a country that could try to regulate you. It's expensive to be the king

Are you making money here? You should comply with local regulations and pay local taxes...
If good or not... that's another question.

We reported a month ago that Microsoft has just released Windows App SDK 1.0.0-experimental, a toolkit that empowers desktop app developers to build apps with a modern Windows UI, APIs, and platform features. Now we'll actually be able to create Windows applications!
I'm too lazy to look into this to see just what the point is. Anyone care to inform me?

Makeup carefully applied to the forehead, cheeks, and nose may help you evade facial recognition systems, judging from these computer scientists' experimental work. It's a good thing these systems aren't used for anything critical, like identifying terrorists and criminals
"It was only able to correctly identify participants with no makeup on at all 47.57 per cent of the time, and when cosmetics were applied randomly it dropped down to 33.73 per cent, according to the paper."

I shouldn't. I really, really shouldn't. But if you are going to fake out AI facial recognition systems, you need to make the makeup look like this.
