Hyperpolyglot is an awesome tool for looking up the differences and similarities between programming languages and tools. "I'm kinda buzzed and it's all because this is how we do it."
Yes, it's a Leslie, but seeing as how that was 2011, and only for a subset of these languages, sue me.

More than half of all Internet Explorer (IE) users have less than 10 months to discard their browsers, and either update to a new edition of IE or dump Microsoft for one of its browser-making rivals. If only there was an alternative!

The Visual Studio Feature Timeline gives a glimpse into what’s coming in future releases. "We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives."

not much of a timeline when it stop at Visual Studio 2015.

Especially since until a few months ago that product was known as VS2014.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

Agile is continuing to be a driving force behind software development. VersionOne recently released its results from the annual State of Agile survey and found that 94% of organizations are practicing agile. * To varying definitions of 'Agile'

Most code I've seen developed under "Agile" is anything but agile. Most code is usually fragile.

Meaning that 93.999% of them don't have clue what they're talking about.

Recent high-profile vulnerabilities have put the lie to the 'many eyes' theory -- but also driven real progress in securing the open source ecosystem. "Given enough eyeballs, all bugs are shallow." (Need more eyeballs)

Last year, Amazon gave a boost to its Prime members when it launched a free, unlimited photo storage for them on Cloud Drive. Today, the company is expanding that service as a paid offering to cover other kinds of content, and to users outside of its loyalty program.

Just so you know, x86 machine-code is now a "high-level" language. What instructions say, and what they do, are very different things. Low is the new high

But they don't say anything; they only do.

I spoke with x86 instructions many times. Normally it were only curses or pleads from my side though...

When Windows 8 entered beta and Microsoft showed off its new apps and design style, they called it Metro. But after some legal headaches, the company stopped referring to them as 'Metro' apps and went with 'Modern' apps instead. When in doubt, rename. That will fix it.
