British Prime Minister David Cameron is reportedly set to ask President Barack Obama to apply pressure to U.S. tech firms that offer fully encrypted communications, to compel them to break the encryption to aid investigations. First they came for the hashes, and I did nothing...

While his motive seems reasonable, it's just plain stupidity!

Not so sure about the motivation personally.
So far, the UK has a really bad record on using legislation introduced as "anti-terrorism" measures against, for example, hecklers at Labour party conferences and political activists.
A couple of my friends who have been green activists for years have suffered from this abuse. Including being held without charge longer than would previously have been possible (we suspect to prevent them attending demonstrations).

IIRC those laws were also used against Iceland after a bank crash.
Note that I'm not fully against defining banks as terror organizations, but then they need to be consistent about it.

Thats the ones.
Never trust any government with unconstrained power. If they need anti-terrorist legislation, insist it comes with safeguards to ensure it is used for that purpose only.

Linux will die if Linus do not start caring about the people who will take over the Linux kernel when he "retires".

He'll probably just take Linux with him to the grave.

Linus still believe Linux is his own pet project...In fact if the Linux community decides to go on without Linus it will just work perfectly, while the other way around...Well Linus will left alone...

Microsoft has recently announced that VSO has been awarded the ISO 27001 certification by the International Standards Organization for its data security and management system. This would alleviate concerns from enterprises over the security of the data that is hosted in the cloud. Uhm. Yay? "Permission to say, 'Huzzah' sir?"

If you ever worked for a company that has ISO, you know exactly how much is it worth...If you didn't, than take my word - next to nothing...

Meh. I'm sure the ISO 9001/14001 certified sign stuck on the front of my building wasn't cheap. 
I'm even more sure that the burrocrazy it's added to everything isn't cheap either. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

After reaffirming his commitment to space tourism following Virgin Galactic's deadly crash in October, slightly absurd rocket enthusiast Richard Branson is tossing a chunk of his billions at a new project: former Google Satellite executive Greg Wyler's satellite-internet company OneWeb.

I hope we will not end needing to leave the earth in the future. If this continue like that, we will collide with all that space bombs.

Eventually, we'll have to build Mega Maid[^] to take care of the satellite problem. For outer space, every spaceship will be equipped with giant snow blades.

DirectX, and any release pertaining to it, is big news in the PC gaming scene. With the software having a direct effect on the functionality of graphically intensive software and its requirements, players and developers alike have a strong interest in the path that DirectX takes. Make you think about buying a new video card?

To kick off the new year, University of Texas at Austin sophomore and “actual teen” Andrew Watts decided to write an essay about his thoughts on social apps, which was meant just for himself and his friends and maybe their friends to read. He put it up on Medium‘s Backchannel, on one of the social apps he wrote about, and the post blew up — and even received some backlash. Eleven days later, he found himself on a plane to SF, flown out on Aol’s dime, to talk to us about all things apps, what he wants to be when he grows up, and what he thinks about Foursquare in one word (“dead”).
This kid is on-point.
