If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

Ah, yes.
I always forget that there are people who who have to keep changing their names, to hide previous sins.
My on-line name has been "Mark Wallace" since the Internet became available; I've never had the need to change it.
I need to sin more, obviously.

Not only it is insecure, it is unstable and unpolished as well. Yes, talking about Android, not Windows ME.

If you scrolled just past the list of most vulnerable products, you'd see that Apple's Mac OS X held this 'prestigious' spot the previous year.
Apple as a vendor had more security vulnerabilities (324, to be precise) than Redhad, Canonical, Debian, etc. With those many security flaws, I'd probably not categorize Apple's products as "so safe".

Everyone seems to have missed the point that the research shows winio to be the most insecure windows, and weven to be the most secure.
Selective blindness, perhaps?

You're RIGHT; can't DENY that.
CASE IN point - BULK of the software them Microsoft devs CREATE IS ABSOLUTE TOP stuff, which is the KEY to their success.
HAVING said that, I could GO FULL ON WITH the crappy SQL puns, but let's SAVE it FOR later, AND DROP it now.
Bye, THEN.
I'm OFF.
LIKE, really.
WAITFOR it.
The END.

The only thing stupider than declaring a platform to be a winner based on publicly released bogometrics (*cough*tiobe*cough*redmonk*cough*) is to do the same with a bogometric that you don't publish at all. 
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?

A team of physicists, led by research assistant Asier Marzo of the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom, has released instructions in the journal Applied Physics Letters and on YouTube for how to create a plastic tractor-beam device. "You left spacedock without a tractor beam?"
I was going to go with, "But nothing runs like a Deere", but I wasn't sure how well that one would travel.

According to the report, while companies continue to move toward agile, agile testing remains one of the biggest issues for teams. Who has time? We have a sprint to get through people!

Testing is but one, albeit huge, fatal flaw with agile. One solution is to have a testing sprint offset from the development sprint.
The notion that automated testing is the only, or at least primary, testing that needs to be done is one of the worse ideas ever inflicted on software development. Automated testing confirms the software works. The goal of actual testing is to prove that the software doesn't work. (Or, as I like to put it, testers try to show that developers are idiots; developers try to prevent that.)

User documentation is another.
If you don't tell your users clearly and (as) fully (as possible) how to use your product, they will make incorrect assumptions, which almost invariably lead to changes having to be made, to match their assumptions -- so add a few dozen blank sprints to your planning, to handle all the enhancement and change requests.
