Better in the lounge than here...
This is almost not a new: no link, no extra information apart from the fact we know you will get one iPhone soon

Sorry to say that I don't like iOS7, it looks worse than Android or Windows Phone. Sigh...

Yeah, they just use the old time-tested, "insert money to purchase opinion" method.

Cracking really long passwords just got a whole lot faster and easier. I'm *so* glad their job is getting easier...

A friend of mine uses passwords longer than 20 characters. Recently he failed to change it for a specific web site: on the page for changing the password, the field for the old password was limited to 15 characters (I saw that in the HTML source), while on the page for creating the initial password, no limit was set.
How did the site's security team react when they were told about that error?
They said: use the "forgot password link" on the login page, you'll receive an email with a link to a page where you can create a new password.
Actually a case for the daily WTF or for the Weird and Wounderful...
Hashcat's new abilites were not required for that site, as 15 characters was the old limit. Perhaps now they are willing to allow for upto 55 characters?

Security Team? I think not. That is a rather 'I don't really care about this' attitude towards getting major security holes like that.

Microsoft's latest boneheaded move is to prevent developers having early access to Windows 8.1 and Windows 8.1 RT... "Yeah, well, that's just like, your opinion, man."

Like when they said years ago that soon there would be no more desktop OS as everyone would just have a browser and nothing else on their machine. Sure, there are chrome books available, but regular PCs with desktop operating systems (whatever the flavor) don't appear to have gone anywhere

Yeah, the people that miss their VT-100s keep saying we're going back that way again. I guess they think if they keep predicting it, when/if it does happen, they look like a genius.
Tablets and browsers are nice, but I don't see everyone using them for most tasks (especially creation-related).
Like others have said, the author seems to want to create some cred for himself by poking at Microsoft, while ignoring the fact that people have had access to the preview for a while. Or maybe he's just sore that XNA got axed.

That guy sounds like a Microsoft Hater that just wants Microsoft to burn in hell.
In other words, he is an idiot.
Windows 8.1 Preview is out. Devs can get the RT version on their devices.
And I have seen that "author's" (I use the term loosely here) Windows 8 Development book, and it is terrible.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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 see JavaScript as a language closely integrated with the DOM, and as a relatively lightweight server-side language, but you can flip this around and think of it as en entirely embedded language: after all, it’s embedded within web pages – it’s bridged to native data structures and functionalities that are required by the runtime. Now you have two problems

AdDuplex has spotted what it believes could be a pair of new Surface tablets accessing its Windows ad network. The advertising network says it "regularly" sees devices named "Microsoft Corporation Surface 2" and "Microsoft Corporation Surface with Windows 8.1 Pro" viewing its ads. The former device is thought to be running Windows RT, just like the current-generation Surface for Windows RT, but it looks like Microsoft might be ready to drop the "RT" name from the device. That should definitely help prevent the confusion /sarcasm

After running Go for two years in production at Iron.io, I wanted to share our experience/feelings about it. We were one of the first companies to use Go (golang) in production and we didn't know what to expect in the long run, but so far, so great. Collect $200 as you pass
