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.

Intel has now officially responded to these reports, calling them “incorrect” and “inaccurate,” and saying it had planned to discuss this very issue next week. "Billy did it too!" always works

Tabby's Star, also known as KIC 8462852, is quite a mystery. Located about 1,280 light-years from Earth, the star puts on an interesting light show every now and then, dimming and brightening at unpredictable times. Someone's leaning against the switch?

Is there an opposite to "Occam's Razor"; where the first answer is the most incredibly complex, unrealistic and convoluted?
Always amazed when people buy into whatever that word is and get very upset when you suggest it may be something simpler.

A new compiler tool from Altimesh, Hybridizer, is intended to address this issue by providing C# developers with a way to target GPUs by producing a CUDA binary from their C# source. So you can really see what a garbage collection cycle looks like?

Quote: Early reports suggest a massive Intel chip-level security flaw leaves the kernel vulnerable in chips released in the last 10 years. A potential PTI workaround will come at a cost of heavy performance loss.

It's a game.
Networking is part of playing the game. Trimming the fat is part of playing the game. Promotions based on likability versus merit and skill, is part of playing the game.
None of this should come as a surprise to anyone, if it does, you are not playing the game, and if you are, you are a terrible player.
With that said, not all Employers/Companies play the game, and if they do, they may only play on Friday nights. So, with an employer like that, you may have an easier time playing the game with greater odds at actually winning from time to time.

Acquired December 1997, Hotmail was the gift that kept on giving—for good or ill. I'd make a HotMail joke here, but I think they've all been said by now
Almost as good as "aol.com" for identifying the age of the sender.
|
|
|
|
|
I got a Hotmail address soon after my Yahoo one, about sixteen years ago. Hotmail was a regular spamfest, far worse than Yahoo. Since then my address has migrated to Outlook.com. I like it, but I have so much crap connected to my yahoo account, that I don't have the energy to change. Though given how bad Yahoo is becoming, I may have to force myself.
|
|
|
|
|
I think the funniest part was how they tried to implement Hotmail on Windows Server but performance was so bad they bagged it and went back to the previous implementation on Linux.
|
|
|
|
|
To clarify, the implementation wasn't on Linux, but a combination of FreeBSD and Sun Solaris--a HUGE difference at the time.
|
|
|
|
|
Yes, now that you mention it, I do remember that. At the time, Sun was huge in the server market.
Thanks

The Harvard Business Review may have published this logic puzzle back in 1996, but people are still scratching their heads over it today. Just in case you're a little short on "stupid interview questions" this week

It’s an excellent chance to make a summary of things that happened to C++! As you might guess the whole year was dominated by the finalization and publication of C++17. Yet, there are some other “big” things that happened. It's still compiling?

A fundamental design flaw in Intel's processor chips has forced a significant redesign of the Linux and Windows kernels to defang the chip-level security bug. Fortunately not a lot of people use those chips
And yes, it does include one possibly naughty acronym. Sorry for offending anyone with that.
If you noticed it.
