That seemed a bit familiar, so I checked history here.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

In 2016, Yahoo disclosed that more than one billion of about three billion accounts had likely been affected by the hack. In its disclosure Tuesday, the company said all accounts were likely victimized. Yahoo!

That's about half the worlds population. Taking into consideration the actual popularity of Yahoo these days and the people I know that use a yahoo account, I'd say the jokes on the hackers trying to figure out which accounts are actually valid/active/useful. HotMomma34450983405343@yahoo.com better lookout! Don't think you're out of the woods AOL, they're coming for you next!!

Academic researchers have published a study investigating the effect of programming languages on software quality, concluding the issue is hard to quantify but also identifying significant findings, such as functional languages having an edge over procedural/object-oriented languages. "Computer languages of the future will be more concerned with goals and less with procedures specified by the programmer."

[edit]OK, so I took a peek. The conclusion -- we can't conclude anything. There you go, academic research at its finest!  [/edit]

Well, the failure of premature conclusiveness is a part of science, usually the hind-end.
Does it mean anything that F# is not among the languages considered ?

Vibrating mechanical switches that can be cascaded to perform complex computational operations could take computing significantly further than today's technologies. "She's giving me excitations"
You knew I had to use something from that song, didn't you?

I was thinking along the lines of frequencies like 10GHz.

Take THAT, quantum computing! And it works at room temperatures! Now where did I put that box of old relays I had when I was 15?

Despite a reputation for fast change some technology choices have stayed remarkably static over the past few decades. In this article we look at the C programming language which is over 40 years old but still remains a core piece of AHL’s and the world’s technology stack. If it works, why add one to it? (or 16Hz)

Metals/Plastics/Aliminium... etc are ways cheaper and more amenable than wood, in my honest personal opinion. However, we still use wood - which is an older material compared to the 3 ones I mentioned above.
Same goes for C...

As usual, it depends on the intended purpose. There are some uses for which wood is still the best material.
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Why the surprise about its longevity?
In a world where the vast majority of languages sit somewhere along a scale that runs from "a bit lousy, really" to "completely and utterly lousy", C still stands out as one of those rare gems that can be filed under "not lousy in the slightest".
98.4% of statistics are made up on the spot.

Dnsmasq provides functionality for serving DNS, DHCP, router advertisements and network boot. We discovered seven distinct issues over the course of our regular internal security assessments.
There are an estimated 750 million wifi routers on the planet and many of them are using dnsmasq. There is a very high probability that YOU reading this right now have dnsmasq installed on your wifi router or other devices in your home. Android devices and most major Linux distributions are also effected.
According to Shodan.io there are 1,089,035 public facing devices running dnsmasq[^].
Update your devices.
Best Wishes,

Yeah, good luck with that! 
My company phone was new in April. It should finally be getting the July "BroadPwn" patch some time this week. And so long as nothing goes wrong, it should be upgrading from v6.0.1 to v7.x some time this month - only two months after v8 was released.
Android phone updates are sloooooooow.
