Mobile devices that use Bluetooth are vulnerable to a glitch that could allow attackers to track a user's location, a new study has found. While they're hacking the Bluetooth, can they also fix the pairing problems I've been having?

The year ahead will be a tumultuous one for software developers. Read Forrester's top three predictions for software development in 2023. "If you make a great number of predictions, the ones that were wrong will soon be forgotten, and the ones that turn out to be true will make you famous."
Kind of ironic that I picked that one up from Malcom Gladwell.
"Citizen development will lead to a headline security breach" <-- kind of an easy guess, IMO.

This short guide helps you brainstorm how you might incorporate these common leaderboard types in your own applications. I'm #15 with a bullet on the bug leaderboard!

I love my company: we'd create a cartel with a minimum performance and would rotate the leaderboard position weekly. I mean, we already do that in some capacity with performance reviews.

The implant will be inserted into the forehead with the reader on the desk, so you can bow to the inevitable.

I am imagining a secondary sensor implanted in the forehead, with a mechanism to detect the separation from the optic nerve sensor. When the value decreases by a millimeter it sends you a dopamine hit!

Those not happy with the taskbar in Windows 11 will be glad to know that Microsoft is about to restore the ability to enable seconds for the clock in the notification area (system tray), getting the new operating system one step closer to feature parity with Windows 10.

Quote: getting the new operating system one step closer to feature parity with Windows 10. So someone admits that W11 was a step backwards?

One of the basic design patterns in .NET is the static Parse function. Virtually every class that can be instantiated from a string representation has one. Yet before C# 11 and .NET 7, there was no way to create an interface that accommodated this. It's just like regular parsing, but with a plain yellow label
Not sure if that Canadianism translates outside the country.
