There has never been a better time to be in software, and the hiring trends prove it. According to Dice.com's semi-annual report, tech hiring is at unprecedented levels. For tech professionals, this means that now is the time to ask for a better, higher-paying job. Hopefully good news for those looking for work

The developers building new applications are very nice people, of course. But the real heroes of the programming world are the developers maintaining and extending existing applications. "Abandon all hope, ye who enter here."

After 38 years of glory, the long run of Dr. Dobb's has come to an end. And another great source of content goes belly up
Sorry, "Sunsets"

That's a shame. I don't go there often as they don't have a lot about .Net or SQL Server, so I tend to forget about it.

That's sad...I only ever really read Code Project on a regular basis, myself.

It really is sad. I've spent quite a few quality hours with Dr Dobb's.

Came a bit out of the blue that one, I've been reading DDJ for over 20 years, and one of the few sources not prone to click bait articles.
(I'd even have lived with some of those if it kept their advertising revenue up and kept them alive).

I'm so shocked by this. It is in my RSS Reader and I read articles there almost daily. Very shocking. This was a whole group of magazines that provided great content. I'm just so shocked.
I guess StackOverflow (SO) is beating everyone out!!! TERRIBLE!!!!

not just SO.
There are tons of technical blogs out there that have the same/equivalent content.
I'd rather be phishing!

Technology coming up in 2015, though, is set to make PCs more interactive, fun and perhaps nosier than you'd like them to be. "We are all interested in the future, for that is where you and I are going to spend the rest of our lives."

I have no need for any of that in a desktop PC.

You don't want to add interpretive dance when using your PC? You must be the same kind of Luddite I am.

Exactly.
the article said:
Perhaps the most interesting idea is Intel's "wire-free" PC, in which wireless technology will replace display, charging and data transfer cables. Chip maker Intel next year will show an experimental laptop that has no ports, and relies completely on wireless technology to connect to monitors and external storage devices.
{sarcasmON} wireless? Who would've thought of that? That is hugely innovative. {sarcasmOFF}

Wires are faster and better in every way.
Though I do like that my new phone charges wirelessly.

NASA has revealed that a whiff of methane has been detected twice in the last couple of years at the Martian surface by the Curiosity Rover. Bob must have eaten something that didn't agree

Must be from some Martian's septic tank...probably should call the vac truck.

You need a strong community, templates and tools to support your already-stellar API.
It's really a pain in the SaaS.

As Oracle presses forward with Project Jigsaw, it is notifying developers of potential changes to apps and IDEs that use the JDK. If you break it, you buy it

Something seems wrong with that article, I think it's the implication that Eclipse isn't broken today.
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?

Dang. *That* is the blurb I should have used. I was trying to come up with something similar to that, but my brain failed me.
Well done, sir.

If you want to take a Microsoft Certification, you need to visit an authorized test center and take it. Microsoft is now simplifying this process with online proctoring which allows you to take tests from your office or home. Also, the new Microsoft Labs Online let you order digital courseware and labs to lead in-house training. It wasn't easy enough to cheat before?

For the fame they had before it is better this way - at least one doesn't even have to waste time. Just Pay&Pick.
