Iot is very dangerous also.
Franky, You will NEVER connect my fridge, thermostat, dog, cat, wife or me to the internet as you all who have nothing left to connect to anything want to do so much.
If iot proponents achieve thier goals someone will and (is to come) along and say "Thank you very much fools" and take control every bit of your lives.
Best leave the extents of the internet to what it is and not much further. LOL Cats and CP for example.
This isn't popular and I don't care.

What isn't nowadays. No matter what it is, there is always some group saying, "you can't eat this or that, you can't do this or that, hse this or that"
If the boundaries/extents of something weren't pushed, we would never evolve.
I suggest you go 'off grid' and find somewhere to hide on a remote island with nothing more than 'Wilson' to keep you company.

I wouldn't marry to Mrs. IoT before knowing her very well. Never been a "at-first-date" guy...
A knife is dangerous as well, but it's undoubt that without it we really miss an important "milestone-tool" for (basically) eat...
I agree with you at 100% about fridge, cat and...wives. However, I believe that the mistake is taking this tech as a "revolution" and pushing it *very* hard.
My job is about (small) industrial control systems, and the features offered from the cloud are a great benefit. Again, the wrong thing is RELYING all the system on the Internet, which (here in Italy, for instance) is pretty bad.
My two-cents opinion is that we all should promote a "safe" and educated usage of the cloud, instead refusing or accepting "as-is".

The technology is not the evil. The evil is the use or abuse that mankind do of it.
As a quote I like says:
We live a very dangerous time, mankind increases knowledge before increasing wisdom
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

I believe IoT will be a big deal in almost every industry, but not particularly for consumer goods.
And there lies a big misconception, I think. Computer networks also were a big deal long before they could convince people to connect their own PC's to the internet.

I think we are beginning to see the end of the smartphone, and here are the leading causes for taking it to the great technology graveyard in the sky. When in doubt: predict something crazy, and hope people forget you said it

I knew this was going to be drek before clicking the link; but calling the phablet a smart phone killer is a new low for SD Times. 
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?

The following aren’t brand-new technologies; rather, they’ve grown considerably in the last year or so and are showing great promise for the long term. Sadly, "lottery winner" isn't a technology on the list

Web APIs. Indeed they will have great impact for the future.Even now.

This makes me feel comfortable because it's the only one I'm doing, just hoping this article isn't BS

Well tech always changes and nothing stayed forever. You should change too. But Web API was there and I think it will stay for long time.

Completely agree. I really want to get involved in this 3D printing lark. Seems like something that is going to change the world once it gets momentum.

Agreed. Three months ago I was pushing people that way, and considering picking one up. Now that HP is moving (slowly) towards it, I think the market will become mainstream very fast (so all the good money will dry up).

Largely it is, I suspect, but these "<insert number="" here=""> things that..." articles tend to be.
One of them per article will probably stick, and then in a year they can do an article "10 things that we predicted..."

A new service has been funded by the DHS that will make multi-tool software assurance testing faster, cheaper, and easier. I'm not entirely sure that's the acronym they should have gone for

Is that the same armageddon that was going to destroy the world due to Y2K?

Forget the acronym, this has NSA written all over it. Send us all your code and we'll "fix" it. Granted, it's all open source so far.

Microsoft's open developer strategy is amazing and welcome news. But the company must still bite the bullet and make peace with open source. The job's not done until ESR has a heart attack?
