How many times have you created a console application to run specific tasks in .NET? 25 points
50 if it did my work for me.

Imagine you could get the entire web in a database, and structure it. Then you would be able to get answers to complex questions in seconds by querying, rather than searching. This is what Diffbot promises. Try it before one of the search engine buys the company

Fortunately for those whose names are likely to be flagged by filters, many platforms are increasingly relying on humans to moderate content since they can better understand the context. Just checking to make sure everyone's email filters are up to snuff

Presumably with a first name of "Seymour", just to satisfy Bart Simpson?
Of course, email address generation policies can make even perfectly polite names sound rude: Megan Finger on Twitter[^]

Oh, my. Poor Megan
I think email admins just look for some of those. Of course, I would never be tempted.

As always, life imitates Dilbert.

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?

The worst name I had seen was back in the 90's on an old research paper from NASA. The last name was "Leaky", first name "Colon". The name is bad enough, but the report was from a study on cow flatulence.
When you are dead, you won't even know that you are dead. It's a pain only felt by others.
Same thing when you are stupid.

Over the last few updates to Visual Studio 2017, we’ve been hard at work adding new features to boost your productivity while you’re writing code. Time to program my fingers for new keyboard commands

Many of the improvements have been nice. Unfortunately, Intellisense for C++ has gotten measurably worse and they still haven't fixed intellisense for things like emplace_back or make_unique.

Mozilla today announced that Firefox will soon block web trackers by default. In conjunction, Firefox will also let users control what information they share with sites. That should go over big with advertisers

Just as it has in the past, Yahoo mail continues to scan the content of its users’ emails in order to sell that information on to advertisers. If you're still using Yahoo email, you have bigger problems

I hate yahoo. They keep hijacking my browser. Wish they would just die.

A project to build the $50 phone has been launched on Crowd Supply, promising to deliver "an open-source, Linux-powered" handset with "no carrier locks, bloated apps, or data mining" and that "doesn't depend on big companies". If I wanted an ugly, limited-function phone, why not get a Nokia?
OK, I don't think Nokia's are ugly - especially the bananaphone[^], but I needed a name people would recognize.

Holding that thing is going to hurt when the RPi's header pins stick you in the face.
I'm just kidding, of course.
I'm sure they'll make sure the RPi's header pins face outward toward your hand.

Commuters are so regularly using travel time for work emails that their journeys should be counted as part of the working day, researchers say. What about lying in bed at 3am thinking about that bug?

only if you could ask the office to pay you for it.... "researchers"... which bug ? the bed bugs hheee

Mimecast examined more than 142 million emails that had passed through organizations' email security vendors. The latest results reveal 203,000 malicious links within 10,072,682 emails were deemed safe by other security systems -- a ratio of one unstopped malicious link for every 50 emails inspected. I'm sure they have no vested interest in that result

So what? "Virustotal" fails with about 100% of links in emails I submit there.
Oh sanctissimi Wilhelmus, Theodorus, et Fredericus!
