Web pioneer Yahoo may sell its core business, as the company's latest turnaround efforts continue to stall, The Wall Street Journal reported last night. Anyone want to dig in the couch cushions to start a collection?

I'll start the bid at $5USD. But I won't go over $10.

Inspired by the reactions to snunkoople, Westbury set out to determine whether it was possible to predict what words people would find funny, using entropy as a yardstick. Mathematicians don't get invited out much

PI looks around and see e alone in a corner with sad face.
PI walks to e and says: Hey, why don't you integrate?
e answers... why? There's not going to be any change.

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?

My friend Logarithm is trying really hard, but definitely cannot integrate. So sad...
I never finish anyth

I see that there are a lot of people out there with enormous amount of spare time and huge budgets to waste on stupid things...and they call themselves scientists...A professor!!!

Really? Using entropy to predict the outcome of a sentence is a stupid thing? It's a step forward to improve the understanding between AIs and humans, and to emulate emotional inflections in automated speech.

Ah...I would start with that...IMHO all the AI thing is stupid! We have a history of a few thousand years already full of miserable events, just because of our great intelligence...Let us do first things first - cure that intelligence instead of re-creating it...

Entropy is like golf - lower scores are better. 
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Panos Panay and the Surface team are building their own ultimate Windows Phone — but you'll be waiting a while for it. Just in time for them to cancel Windows 10 mobile

The references to "long anticipated Surface Phone" made me laugh, as I've never seen any mention of such a beast until reading that article.
(I want a phone that works well as a phone, not a PC that fails to be a good PC or a good phone)

Attrition has been a top-of-mind problem especially in the tech industry, where the turnover has been rising every year since 2012. I'd put a blurb here, but the web page I use just changed jobs

A Texas company filed over 60 lawsuits against big brands that utilize HTTPS on their Web servers, arguing it that deserves monetary compensations for one of the technologies used to encrypt Web traffic. If only these trolls turned to stone in daylight

To lazy to work, to stupid to steal...sounds like patent trolling is right up your alley.

I'll put it on my list of suggestions for my next job. I wonder if the patent for a button is available?

If not I'm sure button hole is up for grabs.

And right next to Q&A, it is a wonder.

I think I heard once that another troll got a patent for the air we breath.
