Several Battlebots videos were taken down in the least few days, with YouTube citing animal cruelty policies. People for the Ethical Treatment of extreme Robots (PETR) strikes again!
I guess their AI was really taking it personally

It's just attention seeking (probably sponsored by Robot Wars, or similar).
If they truly cared about animal welfare, they'd take down everything to do with every flavour of pokemon.

In the EU, that falls firmly in the camp of "that will take more time to intelligently consent to cookie use than actually read the article". People really need to start stream-lining this.

OK, when a Dutch guy starts talking about eating, I just switch off.
Using the Netherlands as part of a weight-loss program is highly recommended, because nothing here is worth the trouble of eating.

Not even stroopwafel?? I used to get regular shipments from my girl friend's son when he worked in Amsterdam.

I'll grant you stroopwaffels and snert, but man cannot live on those alone!
Before you consider moving here, bear in mind that they don't even have bacon as the rest of the world knows it. And there's no legal way of having it shipped in for personal use.

There, I must disagree.
- Matjas herring
- Some of their cheeses
(Combine herring with a bagel and cream cheese, and you come close to heaven on earth...)

Dutch cheese has only one texture (rubber, in various degrees of hardness, because, unlike every other country, they don't seal the cheese properly, so it goes hard as it ages), and only one flavour, in varying strengths -- which is why they add yucky stuff like cumin, to give a bit of variety -- but the variety is only in the additives, not in the cheese itself.

"We fired our QA team, and we won't pay more than a third of a QA member would cost us in a year to find bugs in our code."
Is it any wonder MS products are turning to sh*t? That explains their focus on icons.

New Confidential Computing Consortium will promote the use of TEEs (trusted execution environments). And now I feel so secure
Oh... SEC-UR-IT-Y! That's what our customers were asking for. Well, we need a new coalition to make that...
|

So a new club links together to promote the use of tees to iron out problems?
Do they think our heads are made of wood?
OMG! A pun thread in the Insider! The sky is falling!

A team led by Professor Stephanie Wehner has developed a so-called link layer protocol that brings the phenomenon of ‘quantum entanglement’ from a physics experiment towards a real world quantum network.

I think the number of cases of "has it been hacked or hasn't it?" are due to take a sharp increase.

If you don't think that 400,000 cores is truly mind-blowing, just imagine the price of the SQL Server license!

Assuming the data I found was more-or-less current, A SQL Server 2016 Enterprise Edition 2-core license costs about $7,000 per core, for a total of $2,800,000,000 (that's 2.8 billion dollars) for the server.
I'd love to have that sales-critter's quarterly bonus.

Neuroscientists have created interactive maps that can predict where different categories of words activate the brain. Their latest map is focused on what happens in the brain when you read stories. It totally works! It just told me I was reading an article on brain mapping

While we know that many of you enjoy, and rely on the Visual Studio Command Prompt, some of you told us that you would prefer to have a PowerShell version of the tool. If this doesn't get everyone to upgrade, I don't know what will
They have already changed the icon. What more do you people want?!

The could just combine command prompt and powershell into one instead of having two prompts...
