C++, C#, and Visual Basic .Net make the biggest popularity gains in May's Tiobe index. "Hooray for our side"
I'll completely ignore the mention of C++ as a "Microsoft language"

Bot traffic surpassed humans this year, now accounting for 59 percent of all site visits, according to a new report. And I'm sick of "The Man" telling me what to browse!

The Internet giant is flipping common corporate security practice on its head, shifting away from the idea of a trusted internal corporate network secured by perimeter devices such as firewalls, in favor of a model where corporate data can be accessed from anywhere with the right device and user credentials. "Open sesame"

This actually makes a lot of sense - only when you free your mind form the myth of a secure boundary can you start to do security properly.

Touchpoint Group is planning to develop "the world's angriest artificial intelligence machine," which is named Radiant after a sci-fi supercomputer that could predict future behavior. "The Seldon plan is neither complete nor correct."

In an April 2015 survey of over 450 CodeProject members, 31 percent of respondents said they develop for connected devices. Develop all the Things!

If Standard C++ is so great, why isn’t anyone using it to write Windows apps with the Windows Runtime? Because Standard C++ is not enough. I thought that's what VB was for?

Standard C++ is enough. It's just that the average programmer is not enough.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

One year ago, a European court ruled that Google should comply with requests from individuals to remove certain results from search results; it became known as the Right To Be Forgotten. Twelve months after the initial ruling, Google has published a new transparency report that shows it rejects more requests than it complies with. "You can check-out any time you like, but you can never leave"

A study has found that a large percentage of Americans are a little foggy on what cloud computing actually is. Well, if they didn't... why would they call it cloud computing?
Not (as many would think) just a reason to laugh at those living in "Canada's bitch", as I'm sure it spreads past the border.

IT clouds everything. Impossible to see common sense is... (I needed a green smiley for this one)

Quote: A whopping 51 per cent believe that a storm could play havoc with cloud computing. ...and I'm one of them and I DO know what "the cloud" means.
If a meteorological storm causes power / communication outages it can wreak havoc with one's ability to access data & apps in the cloud.
But lets not let that stop us from click-baiting.
Contrary to popular belief, nobody owes you anything.

Somehow I doubt that is what the 51% had in mind. Sadly, they don't seem to have the actual survey in the PDF.
And I've said it before, but I will say it one more time: All headlines are "click-bait". That's the entire purpose of a headline.

And they called that a survey! Given the right demographics (redneck central) I'd be astonished it was that low!, survey a major city and you numbers are going to be skewed the other direction.

We liked the article "Criticizing the Rust Language, and Why C/C++ Will Never Die" very much. We offer the author that we will do the translation on our own, and publish it in our blog. "Hey hey, my my. Rock and roll can never die" (or C/C++)

Even mentioned in the article. Discussions about C/C++ would just start another holy war. Everyone is right. Right, write, riot. Three homophones describe it all! You try to say that you are right while writing and you start a riot (unwillingly).
