I wouldn't call him "it" 
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.

Shortly after The Washington Post inadvertently published a photo of seven TSA master keys, a group of security experts were able to copy their designs and release their 3D models online. Well, that was a great idea (Security, you ain't got it)

See? One person screws up once and the entire system is hosed now and forever. And they want a master key to my encrypted devices (which have a heck of a lot more important stuff than my luggage)?
They can elephant right off.

Oracle says Java EE 8 will be equipped for cloud deployments, microservices, containers, and multitenancy, but Java advocates want to see the fine print "Oh, promises, their kind of promises, can just destroy a life"

The company is sharing some pretty interesting facts and statistics on its official @Windows Twitter account to entice users to upgrade to Windows 10. The list does not include the number of swear words directed at the upgrade offer dialogs
|
|
|
|
|
Most interesting statistic:
Only 3 lawsuits filed for forced upgrade
|
|
|
|
|
Very amusing.
"Shall I file a lawsuit and spend a fortune and months of my time fighting the 3,000-lawyer-strong legal team of one of the biggest corporations in the world, or shall I just format the drive and reinstall a decent operating system?"
Try not to look too fanbois.

I like that they basically reinvented that stupid widget from some version of Office that was not much of a success, but now call it Cortana. So the average number or questions for Cortana is less than ten if there are 350 million PCs with Windows 10. Sounds like a flop to me.

So Windows 10 is good for games and web surfing! I can't see a single mention of writing code, or doing any kind of productive work with Windows 10...
Skipper: We'll fix it.
Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?
Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.

I do all my productive work on Windows 7. Partly consisting of web-based games for Windows 10!
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

"Cortana has answered more than 6 billion questions on Windows 10"
Four billion of which were "Will you get out of the *u**ing way!"

It's hard to believe that 20 years ago, Microsoft introduced the first OS for the masses, democratizing IT platforms and tools to help IT build solutions that drive success. The traditional gift for the 20th is China, so either smash a plate on your server, or buy a new one from Lenovo

Aurelia is a JavaScript client framework for mobile, desktop and web leveraging simple conventions and empowering creativity. Sorry, I can't think of anything funny/insightful here, but I thought you should know

It actually looks quite neat. I only scraped the surface so I'd be interested in other's thoughts.
cheers

Government can give you nothing but what it takes from somebody else. A government big enough to give you everything you want is big enough to take everything you've got, including your freedom.-Ezra Taft Benson

Aurelia-hoobity-what-y?
They lost me at... JavasScript client framework... MEGO!!! (My Eyes Glaze Over)
And wait a second here...Durandal. You mean the little brother project to ANGULARJS!?!
And this is a knock-off of Durandal? Whaaaaaat?

Looks clean and elegant.
My favorite line:
But where is Aurelia? Well, the answer is that Aurelia tries as hard as possible to stay out of your ES 2016 code.
Nice.

A review of European privacy laws said that "the use of end-to-end encryption should also be encouraged." There's probably a Brexit joke in there if I really tried
But then, that would be political, wouldn't it?

Sure, but I'd make a "back door" reference.

After Brexit the UK just wants to Sexit (Security Exit)? 
I'm guessing they won't stop until they've had the entire alphabet.

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.
