What? This is ridiculous. There should've been a mass outcry of such the blatant security issues the likes of this company has just demonstrated.
Either that, or I just chose a random & old post of @Kent-Sharkey reports and commented on such.

A group of scientists say they want work toward being able to create a synthetic version of the entire human genetic code in the laboratory. "The study of Nature makes a man at last as remorseless as Nature."
Why not? It always works out pretty well in the movies when they try that.

I always find research relating to the human genome a cause for concern. I am completely in favour of research where there are clear benefits to medical science, but I am not always convinced that research such as this is justified.
Humans are a fallible species, and whilst the scientists involved may be genuinely looking for uses of this research to progress medical science, it can also be used for less than ethical purposes such as creating designer babies, which is one step away from eugenics.
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

Wouldn't a bed be more comfortable than a lab bench?
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

How about starting with something a bit simpler?

Astronomers using NASA's Hubble Space Telescope have discovered that the universe is expanding 5 percent to 9 percent faster than expected. Better find something to hold onto

My theory of dark energy due to near by color super-conducting vacume quantum state can accommodate this (no )

Just talking is enough to activate the recordings – but thankfully there's an easy way of hearing and deleting them. Don't be creepy

Well, they have read our mails and documents for years, so why not voice recording too.

Microsoft's push to update existing Windows 7 and 8.1 users is now becoming a shove, according to a new report. "One way or another, I'm gonna win ya"

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Feeling more and more lucky to have turned off wupdate.
It really simplify the w10 begging/nagging popup.

Why not monitor programmer stress levels to discover when things are getting tricky and take bug avoidance measures? Add an extra wire for shocks (for exceptions)

Microsoft Research is working on a system, dubbed Platypus, that can detect a human’s location and identity inside of a building. Hopefully it isn't equipped with a poisonous spur
But really: what happened in Australia to make even the cutest little furballs so toxic?

The researchers spotted that the exploit was being advertised on a Russian hacking forum last month, and the seller who goes under the nickname “BuggiCorp” is currently selling it for $95,000. This is why we can't have nice things anymore

A month after Microsoft ceded the No. 1 browser spot to rival Google, Internet Explorer (IE) and Edge hemorrhaged user share at an astounding rate, data released today showed. If you don't use IE, how are you going to know how it's going to break your page?

I wonder how Microsoft will respond to this challenge?
Could we fault fault that as well on the Synofsky-Balmmer Duo-Debacle?
|
|
|
|

I predict they'll try to move Edge to a more Chrome/FF-like upgrade cycle, with new releases coming out faster (and likely without user input). Not that I think that will help much. Once users are trained to ignore the big, blue e, they're not likely to return.
As for Balmer/Synofsky - maybe. I think they've had the problem a few times thinking IE was "done". IE6 was the worst culprit, but 10 also seemed to be a pause. Having it part of Windows certainly didn't help them respond at Internet speed.

At the time I thought IE 6 was great. Then Firefox came along and that made me think there was more to browsing than what IE 6 offered. Since then we've had Chrome and so on. I'm currently running six browsers, including IE and Edge.
