We’ve added a private audience capability in Dev Center. This new option is available now to all developers and allows you to publish an app or game that will be visible only the people you specify. Because just sharing a floppy is so last century

If it's only available to the people you specify, wouldn't it be better just to email those people a copy?

Yes, but that would imply the use of common sense... what actually is not that common

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?

For software agencies, departments and startups it’s crucial to optimise the output of their developers. To establish this you need to take into account what the routine of developers looks like. Because their activities look to be much more fragmented than we maybe think. Research suggests developer’s attention is broken in many pieces. On the other hand... squirrel!

Microsoft just announced a quantum-computing advancement today: a measurement that looks like an electron split in half in a piece of wire. It will be of central importance if the company hopes to create a working quantum computer. I prefer the *free-range* half-electron quasiparticles myself

In this age of instant communication, there is pressure on employees to be "switched on" all hours of the day. But do we really have the mental attitude to totally disconnect from work? Sorry Chris, I was going through a tunnel around then (from about 7pm to 1am)

For the past six years, I've deliberately not found out how to remote into work. I also refuse to put my personal phone number on the company phone list. I've gotten no push back. (That doesn't stop my brain from trying to solve the latest challenge during off-hours.)

Hire by Google, the company’s service for recruiters and hiring managers, is getting a couple of new features today that’ll make it easier to find the right candidates among the pool of potential employees who previously applied to a position at a company. Is that where you just Google the candidates and hire them based on their search results?
