A French data protection agency today denied an appeal by search-giant Google in a case involving the controversial right to be forgotten ruling. Remember: you must forget

Need another country to have a 'right to remember' law now...or maybe they could have a law that all french people must use .fr domains?
Another blindingly obvious result of this stupid law that achieves nothing.

A quick shift from Windows 8.1 upgraders to those updating from Windows 7 is good news for Microsoft. "I still don't know what I was waiting for, and my time was running wild"
|

|
|
So, does the increase in usage share for Windows 8.1 after five weeks imply that people who moved to Windows 10 are fed up with it and turning back now?

That looks a lot more like either a blip or a correction from too small a sample window. IOW what we're really seeing is an adjustment in the W7 to W8.x ratio. With W10 only gaining 0.2%/week at the moment you're looking at numbers that're probably on the same scale as the margin of error. Even the monthly version trend numbers have a weird bobble or two every year. 
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 effects have been extremely limited, and almost exclusively to the Chinese market. The good news is that Apple seems to be able to track it down to specific apps and pull them from it's App Store.
I can't believe that people were downloading XCode from unofficial websites though, especially as Apple give it away for free anyway.
Would you download Visual Studio from an unoffical site? And if you did, would you be surprised if it was infested with malware?

Vintage tech goes under the hammer[^] [Aunty]
An Apple 1 motherboard, a 79-year-old TV and the only surviving processor of the last supercomputer designed by Seymour Cray are being auctioned in New York.

::yawn:: Did I mention the ten-year-old HP Integrity (Itanium) server I just got off Ebay?

I'd get my hand on the Cray chip if I had the money!!!
I'd rather be phishing!

Or you you could just buy a Dell laptop, according to this[^] post.

In the era of decentralized IT, enterprise architects will find fresh opportunity to help businesses meet their most important objectives. Someone's got to build all this stuff

Twenty-seven eight-by-ten photographs ought to be enough for anybody?

Surely, all you need to be an enterprise architect is an envelope and a pencil?

And Google.

Yeah... architects design the system, convince management it MUST be implemented, and leave the implementation costs up to the sites... in other words, find the money you didn't budget for.

This morning in his opening keynote at CppCon, Bjarne Stroustrup announced the C++ Core Guidelines (github.com/isocpp/CppCoreGuidelines), the start of a new open source project on GitHub to build modern authoritative guidelines for writing C++ code. Assuming you feel he knows C++
