Did you notice that this article about an interactive application is signed by someone called 'Kortina', which sound suspiciously like 'Cortana' ?

Is it pronounced "EFF-in"? As in, "I don't want that EFF-in operating system".

In a December 2014 survey of 2,100 hiring and HR managers, CareerBuilder found 50 percent of hiring managers know enough about a candidate to make a hiring decision within the first five minutes. Wait 15 minutes, and 90 percent of interviewers will have you pegged. Bonus #0: You notice the 'notes' he's taking involve Tetris

I hate to say it but we can usually tell how an interview is going within 30 seconds.
If you've made it through the front door for an interview chances are the company has already vetted your resume, references and technical skills (or they should have: it's simple enough to do before the interview and saves everyone time).
The interview itself is about whether you want to spend 8hrs a day for the foreseeable future, through thick and thin, with this person.

This is why, I always place a warm loaf of fresh-baked bread under each armpit before entering a place for an interview.
<SNIFF> I smell like happiness, warmth and a cozy day at home. Hire me!
Hey, it works for selling your house.
Yes, sometimes interviewers do ask about the large bumps under my sweater, but I tell them that is possibly a harrassment issue and then the job is definitely mine.

My mother, for whatever reason, was called "Tim" from the time she was young. We don't know how it happened, but...
When she moved to the city I grew up in as a young woman, she interviewed for a job as a waitress... the owner was only told the person coming in was called Tim, but not the gender.
When she arrived, the owner said, "This is the first time I've met a 'Tim' with bumps in the sweater."
So, your comment made me smile at the memory of my mother telling that story.

Apple is building a self-driving car in Silicon Valley, and is scouting for secure locations in the San Francisco Bay area to test it, the Guardian has learned. Documents show the oft-rumoured Apple car project appears to be further along than many suspected.
In May, engineers from Apple’s secretive Special Project group met with officials from GoMentum Station, a 2,100-acre former naval base near San Francisco that is being turned into a high-security testing ground for autonomous vehicles. Who's next? Microsoft?

Microsoft's version will be better, if they can manage to stop auto-updates.
