Following Microsoft’s decision to stop selling the ARM-based Surface 2, followed shortly by the Lumia 2520, the tech world began to speculate about the fate of Windows RT. To add salt to the wound, Microsoft announced during its Windows 10 keynote that Windows RT will not be upgraded to Windows 10 and will instead receive an update that backports some of its new features. RT: Resurrected Technology?

NASA's scientists have been conjuring up mission concepts to Europa for more than a decade, but now they're absolutely sure that the Clipper concept is the one. "All these worlds are yours, except Europa. Attempt no landing there."
What part of that don't they get?

So what NASA is saying is no warp drive in at least a decade.

To this day, the Russian Federal Space Agency refuses to talk about the weapon—though it’s an open secret. Astronauts heading to the International Space Station have trained with it, and some have even talked about it. "This is my boomstick!"

In this entry I introduce a new series on NoFlo, a visual programming framework for JavaScript based on the concept of flow-based programming. In it you will learn what it is, why it's important, and how to use it. Because "visual programming" will solve all problems - I think I read that in the 70s. And the 80s

The idea is great, and I already implemented something like that 25 years ago (in WinG of all things) for testing different data compression techniques. However, the idea is also obsolete -- the idea of data flowing in pre-programmed ways is so boring, so deterministic, so inflexible. Now, if you have semantic data the components connect themselves[^].

Saves me the trouble anyway.
I just took some corporate online training and it contains that particular error. So in the survey at the end I told them to do a grammar check.

As is customary, this ReSharper 9.1 EAP release includes new features, improvements to existing features, bug fixes and also continues improving our impending release of ReSharper C++. Not that C++ folk like pretty code, but there you go

After years of using C# + ReSharper, then recently getting back into C++, I can tell you I've missed a lot it's features mightily.
svm[tab] is a lot less to type than
static void main()
{
}

There are few examples of software about which I can say I can't "live without them."
ReSharper is one
«I'm asked why doesn't C# implement feature X all the time. The answer's always the same: because no one ever designed, specified, implemented, tested, documented, shipped that feature. All six of those things are necessary to make a feature happen. They all cost huge amounts of time, effort and money.» Eric Lippert, Microsoft, 2009

In an editorial published earlier today, FCC chairman Tom Wheeler laid out the broad strokes of the agency's upcoming proposal for new Open Internet rules. "The NET is a waste of time, and that's exactly what's right about it."

While I'm all in favor of "net neutrality or an open internet", I'm also not in favor of gov't regulation. I think a morally voluntary approach would be best and most flexible.
However, that said, the Internet Providers brought it upon themselves by being a bunch of greedy arses.
