Got the notification on my phone. Updating now. Will let you know how it goes...

I'm back! It all went smoothly. Took about an hour to download and apply. :crossedfingers:
Decrease the belief in God, and you increase the numbers of those who wish to play at being God by being “society’s supervisors,” who deny the existence of divine standards, but are very serious about imposing their own standards on society.-Neal A. Maxwell
You must accept 1 of 2 basic premises: Either we are alone in the universe or we are not alone. Either way, the implications are staggering!-Wernher von Braun

I have yet to update my PC, been on my Mac mostly as of lately. Is it worth it? I've been hearing mixed reviews.

If you're talking about going to Windows 10 altogether. I think it's better than Windows 8/8.1. I've been on it for about a year and it's been real stable and speedy. It boots faster. I don't really like the "flat/boxy" look but, that's "eye candy"
If you're talking about the "major update", I've just got done installing it and so far so good. :crossedfingers:

Windows 10 in general, and I will take your word for it. You are the Great and Powerful Oz after all.

Hope it brings back Edge and Calc.exe (which both vanished from my machine a week or two ago...)

Theoretical computer scientists are normally a fairly sedate bunch, but are humming with excitement after a potential breakthrough in a long-standing problem called graph isomorphism. Someone here probably understands this one
|
|

|

Yes but perhaps only because they don't actually describe the breakthrough..

Quote: Reports from his lecture yesterday suggest that Babai’s method involves dividing a graph into different parts and solving them separately. Some of these sub-graphs, known as Johnson graphs, are particularly difficult to analyse.
To tackle those, he borrows concepts from important work in another area of mathematics called group theory, known as the classification of finite simple groups. The proof of this is famous in its own right for running to tens of thousands of pages. “It sounds like Babai has built a monster of an algorithm,” says Williams. So, basically, divide-and-conquer.

While messaging has become central to our everyday lives, it’s currently only used in the narrow context of personal communications. What if we could extend messaging beyond this? Hey Cortana, what do you think of this idea?

Apple is in talks with banks in the US about creating its own mobile-to-mobile payments service that sounds a lot like PayPal's Venmo app, according to The Wall Street Journal's Robin Sidel. Will I need to install iTunes to send someone money?

Almost half of work activities could be automated now, a new report says. And that includes those in the executive suite. Behold, the Bad Decision Maker 3000!

In some companies I've worked, we could've replaced the CEO with a block of concrete and no one would've noticed the difference.

Automation of executives? Simplest thing in the world: It's just an endless loop of nop instructions that increments an earnings counter on each iteration, and runs for eight to ten hours a day. Each 360 days, a bonus of a random value is calculated and added to the earnings counter (condition for the random value: it must be between two and ten times of the annual salary). The program for the (now virtual) top executives runs this thing multi-threaded (which explains the exobitant value of the earnings counter for thoses instances at the end of the day).

Mozilla is releasing a “preview” build that runs within Android to give you a taste without any real commitment required.
The catch? They are shoehorning an OS on top of another OS, so the two might interact strangely sometimes — particularly at this early stage. For example, Mozilla says Android’s back button can cause some weird bugs at times. Wow Mozilla, thanks for making it easier to do something I don't want to do.
