Microsoft today announced the release of the open-source .NET Core 2.0, with improved performance, 20,000 more APIs from the .NET Framework world, better cloud debugging and live unit testing.

Engineers from the nonprofit say the bot learned enough to beat Dota 2 pros in just two weeks of real-time learning, though in that training period they say it amassed “lifetimes” of experience, likely using a neural network judging by the company’s prior efforts. First they came for the chess players, but I did nothing...

The main goal of DevOps is quite simple: ship software updates frequently, reliably, and with better quality. I'm going to guess 'dev'. No wait, 'ops'!

From outside the programming world, programming languages mostly just look like programming languages—a garble of mathematical symbols dotted here and there with isolated English words. Is there a .NET port yet?

It started back in 1998 as an April Fool's Day gag. Written up by Larry Masinter of the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF), error code 418 — "I'm a teapot" — was nothing more than a poke at the "many bad HTTP extensions that had been proposed". The response was short and stout

The C++ Core Guidelines can help improve your code and decrease your cost of maintenance by offering a wide range of recommendations: encouraging use of the standard library, avoiding use of unsafe practices whenever possible, maintaining a consistent style, and helping you to enforce reasonable design decisions. Odd. It doesn't seem to like printf.

There’s no immediate threat, but as sequencing becomes more commonplace, researchers face security risks. Beware of hackers bearing DNA (that they want to put in your computer)
"No immediate threat". Thanks for that. 
"To make their malware work, the team introduced a vulnerability into a program that’s commonly used to analyze DNA data files." OK, I'm going to hack your computer. Can I get the source files to Windows so I can add a vulnerability?

Windows 10 Pro for Workstations is a high-end edition of Windows 10 Pro, comes with unique support for server grade PC hardware and is designed to meet demanding needs of mission critical and compute intensive workloads. Looks at calendar. OK, not April 1. Looks at calendar. OK, not 2000.
Checks again to make sure it's not April 1. Maybe my calendar is wrong?
