I am not so sure about the selling of that info. Zuckerburg is probably working on a way to do it.

Probably.

You have a 50/50 shot at accessing a new experiment from the Visual Studio dev team that integrates tutorials with the IDE for an experience that combines guidance with live code. The tutorials are coming from inside the IDE

It was difficult for people to guess whether philosophical responses came from the philosopher Daniel Dennett or the language generator GPT-3. It just sat around doing nothing?
I know, I know - thinking "big thoughts"

I note that the AI was "trained on millions of words of Dennett’s about a variety of philosophical topics, including consciousness and artificial intelligence."
IOW, garbage in, garbage out.

But the AI managed to create long non-intellegible sentences which are not formally wrong, cause the mind to bend and finally give up trying to understand them...

Human beings are inherently social creatures, having existed in close-knit hunter-gatherer groups for most of our 200,000-year history. If only there were some sort of place people could gather during working hours

|
In a related study about work from home vs. work in the office, researchers discovered that it's the 20 somethings who want to work in the office. As we get older the need for physical social interaction decreases, so I suspect these two findings are related to each other.

Hackers who normally distributed malware via phishing attachments with malicious macros gradually changed tactics after Microsoft Office began blocking them by default, switching to new file types such as ISO, RAR, and Windows Shortcut (LNK) attachments. It's almost like they have a variety to choose from

Apple may have already ripped the band-aid off its third-party cookie tracking situation with its iOS 14 updated on mobile devices a year ago, but it seems Google is still easing itself into position with yet another two-year window added to its proposed removal timeframe. Apparently, that's not the way the cookie crumbles

A survey of 1,000 workers by Slack finds that 86% would prefer to work longer hours over the course of fewer days, as well as broad support for flexible work options. 19 times out of 20

10 in 10 workers are in favor of a 0-day week.

I dunno. 4x10 is better than 5x8 IMO. Especially if you’ve got a commute.

If combating attacks and hijackings of legitimate software on open source registries like npm weren’t challenging enough, app makers are increasingly experiencing the consequences of software self-sabotage. "You're scheming on a thing that's a mirage. I'm trying to tell you now, it's sabotage"

This basically means the end of free open-source software (OSS) as we currently know it.
While most free OSS comes "as is", there used to be an implicit guarantee that the description matches what's "in the box." If this is no longer true, users of the software must spend time verifying each package (and each new version of the package), time that they previously spent improving their product. Under these circumstances, they might as well buy a commercial package that comes with guarantees that the package is as described.

OSS was born when programmers were few and they were all pioneers. Today there are 6 weeks courses that kickstart barely alphabetized people into programming job - the ecosystem can no longer support implicit gentlemen agreements.

In next week's news: AI vets OSS for sabotaged code.
Or maybe that was last week. Who knows, but if there was ever a good use for AI, that would be one IMO.
