The EU has revealed that the COVID-19 contact tracing technology jointly developed by Apple and Google will be released to developers weeks ahead of schedule. Because it took less time to bake the security in
Because I'm sure there won't be any security or privacy issues. At all.

Of course not... 
To be an issue the goal should have been to make it private or secure in the first case...

Cornell researchers who build nanoscale electronics have developed microsensors so tiny, they can fit 30,000 on one side of a penny. How can I keep the smart dust off my tinfoil hat?

Didn't Elizabeth Holmes start with that sort of idea before she launched the infamous Theranos?
The idea was an implant that could detect pathogens and simultaneously inject the drugs required to kill the pathogen - which apparently was more sophisticated than anything that even Star Trek had.
Mind you I think she did get valued at $9 billion before the whole Theranos debacle fell apart as an alleged scam.

When the Air Force asked hackers to break into a F-15 fighter jet at last year’s DEF CON security conference, the results were both eye-opening and eye-watering. "Mess with the best, die like the rest."

 Zero Cool FTW 
Quote: In just two days, a team of seven hackers found a ton of vulnerabilities, which if exploited in the real world could have crippled a critical aircraft data system, causing untold and potentially catastrophic damage.
It was also proof that the Air Force desperately needed help.
7 people in 2 days  Quote: “We absolutely need help,” said Roper.
First step is to recognize it.

 As they found it, the actual flow was probably, "Oh, elephant, I found another Chrome flaw". "Wait! I can blame this one on Windows! Publish!"

Google today revealed that “nearly half a million developers” now use its open source UI framework Flutter each month. And 2 million developers have used Flutter since version 1.0 was released in December 2018. I wonder how many of those are just the "Hello, world" app?

Tesla has released a few impressive videos of its Autopilot-powered emergency braking feature helping to avoid running over inattentive pedestrians. It's still working on that Trolley Problem though
First step, find some place that still has trolleys
I read that headline so many times before I noticed the "avoiding".

Now the question is...
how many have they paid to the "testers"?
And if not paid, the other question is...
how much are they going to receive after suing Tesla for using them as "beta testers" without telling the implications?

Around here, armed muggers will force you off the road and carjack you, maybe shoot you before they steal your car.
So what it sounds like is with a Tesla, all a carjacker has to do is step into the street and the Tesla will stop and put your whole family in danger of being murdered.
Is there a way to override this "feature"?

Along with setting out the main missing features of Go, developers want better Go support in Microsoft Azure. It's missing the $200 every time you pass it
At least for me, that is.

Chromium browser,
Linux integration,
Go support in Azure...
Is it me? Or Microsoft is losing its own path?
