In a strategy shift, Microsoft will make Extended Security Updates for Windows 7 available to smaller business customers, too, starting on December 1. Welcome to "pay-to-play"

At this point, why not just take the last step, include W7 home; and make the paid patches available to anyone business or not. 
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?

We just released a GA version of .NET Core 3.0 that includes support for Windows Forms and WPF. And along with that release we’re happy to announce the first preview version of the Windows Forms Designer for .NET Core projects! Now you can code just like you did back in 2005 (but with new bugs!)
What a sexy product name!

Leaker Evan Blass has spilled details about Windows 10X, said to be Microsoft’s fork of Windows 10 that’s built for dual-screen devices. I guess someone at Redmond wanted to put, "10x programmer" on their resume?

this is not a forum for questions like that: it is a forum for news. take time to get familiar with the forums here.
in general, a very broad question like yours may not get a response. try and make your question specific, and include information about yourself relevant to the question. or, ask others what their specific experiences with ML courses is.

Nim is a compiled statically typed language focusing on efficiency, readability and flexibility, and the developers say Version 1.0 marks the beginning of a stable base and that future versions of Nim won’t break the code you have written with the current version. Because it's been ages since we had a new language (to complain about)
No, these aren't the Knights guys

Support for various backends: it compiles to C, C++ or JavaScript so that Nim can be used for all backend and frontend needs. So I can program in NIM and compile to C so that I can compile to .....
Would that make this an extra-high level programming language?

Playing games, literally, is a powerful way of facilitating creative thinking, because it can lower the barriers of established behavioural norms and routines by offering new rules and sometimes even new realities. Now to convince the boss that a new console would be a business expense

Tesla’s “Smart Summon” feature, which lets cars navigate themselves in parking lots, isn’t even out of beta yet. But Tesla owners are already using it in some mind-bogglingly stupid ways, Electrek reports. "Wizard's First Rule: people are stupid"

I was going to launch my own new internet protocol called "hhttppss" but I didn't for fear of an anti-trust investigation against me. 
See! "Government Holds Back Innovation" is not an unreasonable headline!

Richard Stallman, a free software movement activist and programmer received an invitation from Microsoft which he accepted by sharing his views on a lot of things on September 4, 2019, at the Microsoft campus. Strangely, "Why can't you just die?" didn't make the list
I'm sure they'll follow all of them

Especially the ones that spell 'Microsoft Windows' with a $ or 'doze'
