With Windows 8 being RTM’ed and a slew of new devices to be launched on October 26 (just a few weeks away) I can’t help but wonder where the new keyboards are. Sure, Microsoft has announced some new keyboards and mice, but they’re not gesture enables and have no charm keys on them. The keyboard is just a fairly standard keyboard with the new Windows logo on it. Boring! So, what do you want on your keyboard?

The keys R,T,F,M and the Enter key.

only n00bs remove their eyes away from the screen
and turn with keyboard
and backpedal
and click with mouse to activate toolbar items :P

It means I do not have to login to see the current status
..and yes, only noobs use a mouse. We disconnected them in class, forcing people to memorize the shortcuts on their keyboard. Not only did they gain in terms of productivity (it's simply faster than using a mouse), it also looked more professional.

Razer Switchblade UI does not extend/duplicate screens, however, I believe this is closer to what the OP is looking for

Basically I have been disgusted with keyboards for years. The ergonomic keyboards are almost all junk unless to get top end. How the hell do you call a keyboard ergonomic when the keys are still slanted like a standard keyboard that was designed of the original typewritters that needed to pass levers to actuate the keys. Also, why are almost all the wireless keyboards without a touch pad. I want a touchpad with a wireless keyboard.

I see a lot of people get excited about extreme concurrency in modern hardware bringing us closer to the magical holy grail of raytracing. It seems that everyone thinks that once we have raytracing, we can fully simulate entire digital worlds, everything will be photorealistic, and graphics will become a "solved problem". This simply isn't true, and in fact highlights several fundamental misconceptions about the problems faced by modern games and other interactive media. The Matrix doesn't have you... yet.

Google today announced a huge change for Google Apps, including its Business, Education, and Government editions. As of October 1, users will no longer have the ability to download documents, spreadsheets, and presentations in old Microsoft Office formats (.doc, .xls, .ppt). Assuming the Google Docs included Google Apps will be following in the footsteps of the Google Docs available to consumers, this means that the search giant will still support exporting into these Microsoft formats: Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), and PowerPoint (.pptx). Of course non-Microsoft formats will continue to be supported: ODT and RTF for documents, ODS and CSV for spreadsheets, SVG/PNG/JPEG for presentations, as well as PDF, TXT, and HTML for all three. One small step for information workers, one giant step for open documents everywhere.

Of course, now the only versions of Office that do not support the new formats are almost 10 years old, so why support a format that is inherently hard to support, and being replaced by the xaml versions.

Since the dawn of the space age, more than 20 000 objects larger than a softball have accumulated in Earth’s orbit. About 1000 of those objects are spacecraft that carry active payloads, serving many valuable missions for mankind. But the rest could best be called junk, the by-product of thousands of launches and routine spacecraft deployments, nearly 200 explosions, and several collisions. And this junk poses a serious problem. Cosmic pinball.

Spectacular fail on an iPhone, spectrum.ieee redirects to m.spectrum.iee which redirects to ........ spectrum.ieee, maybe it's lots of redirects on one page rather than stupidity, but the iPhone goes bonkers either way! Pity, wanted to read it.

Randall Munroe began his career in physics working with robots at NASA's Langley Research Center. He is famous, however, for engineering a creation of different kind: the iconic web comic that is xkcd. Last week, Munroe won the web's wonder for approximately the thousandth time when he published comic #1110, "Click and Drag," a soaring, spanning, surprising work that encouraged users to explore a fanciful world through their computer screens. As Rev Dan Catt pointed out, if you printed the comic at 300dpi, the resulting image would be about 46 feet wide. Someone on the internet is being interviewed...

The goals of a programming system should be: 1. to support and encourage powerful ways of thinking, and 2. to enable programmers to see and understand the execution of their programs. A live-coding Processing environment addresses neither of these goals. JavaScript and Processing are poorly-designed languages that support weak ways of thinking, and ignore decades of learning about learning. And live coding, as a standalone feature, is worthless. How do we get people to understand programming? We change programming. We turn it into something that's understandable by people.

The ultimate goal is to take a passphrase, tokenize it into individual words, and find low-entropy words in increasingly-long contexts (0th order Markov model, 1st order, 2nd order), using completely local data sources. The front end is a straightforward Backbone.js GUI. Those models and views rely on querying for the existence of 1-grams, 2-grams, and 3-grams in pre-loaded data structures. The backend needs knowledge of roughly 10 million 2-grams and roughly 40 million 3-grams. Test it right in the browser.
