To fully protect yourself from potential Zombieload attacks, vendors and early benchmarks show you'll face performance losses of up to 40%. Can't we just shoot them in the head (twice)?

North Carolina State University researchers have developed a new framework for building deep neural networks via grammar-guided network generators. From someone (very) outside of the field, it really seems like we've hit an inflection point on AI dev

Excellent article 
"There are two ways of constructing a software design: One way is to make it so simple that there are obviously no deficiencies, and the other way is to make it so complicated that there are no obvious deficiencies. The first method is far more difficult." - C.A.R. Hoare

I will fight anyone anyway, despite needing the job like anybody else. The last Company got the short end of the stick: after years of Don Quichotting against them I lost all the enthusiasm and left them at the first chance.
They do love their VB6 and single-thread architecture... I don't.

When it comes to using AI to aid developers, the company wants to help at every step of the way, according to Amanda Silver, a director of Microsoft’s developer division. Including asking online for codez?

Gmails Autocomplete seems to be going well. Mix that and talktotransformer.com so whole applications make in a few words.

Tech companies used to be all about self-regulation, but now, like a kid wanting to be grounded because he just can’t keep his hand out of the cookie jar, the industry is beginning to call for federal regulation. Stop me before I ship again!

Of course they do because they can afford it and shut out competitors.

Microsoft is releasing its Windows 10 May 2019 Update to everyone today. Don't everyone rush and download it right away
Although if someone would find the bugs before I get there, that would be nice. Please and thank you.

Hey now. Microsoft products don't have bugs, they create features that nobody wants. Features like Microsoft Vista, Windows 8, Window ME. They are still cutting edge too, they had "open security" before Facebook made it cool to have your info easily stolen.

The kilogram is the last unit of measurement to be untethered from an artificial object. *Excluding the US, Liberia, and Burma
Yes, it's changed there also. They just don't care as much.

The pound is actually defined as 0.45359237 kg. Most Imperial units are now defined in terms of metric.

That... makes no sense. Which I suppose makes complete sense in this case. 
People and their units. /sigh.

The author of the article wrote:
Most of the people who will notice the difference between Le Grand K and the new kilo will be scientists who deal with hyper-precise measurements, such as pharmacologists who must dole out exact doses of medications
This is obviously nonsense. Up to the new definition of the kg the mass was known to an accuracy of 50 microgram, that's only 0.05 millionths. Who cares if he/she gets an overdose of even one millionth
He also writes "The kilogram is now equal to the weight of 1.4755214 x 1040 photons with frequencies matching a cesium atomic clock." That's not a very large number of photons, about 1500. There's a symbol missing

Given that some phamaceuticals are effective in dosages measured in micrograms, I really don't think your summary works here.
For example, LSD-25 can make you hallucinate with approx 60 microgram dosage.
