Are we saying that if someone's main strength was that he'd always been "like really smart", he'd be pretty damned irresistible?

It’s been just two days since The Register first reported that all Intel x86-64x processors were subject to a severe security vulnerability, and already Intel has been hit with at least three separate class action lawsuits related to the vulnerability. Only three?

You'd think there would be at least 86.

Microsoft rushed to get an emergency fix out to Windows 10 users, promising that Windows 7 and 8 users will be patched in the near future. The company has also released a PowerShell script that lets users check whether they have protection in place. Find out before someone finds out for you

Yes...check your security by installing a package from an untrusted repository.

OK, lame attempt there. Going to sit in the corner and think about what I've done.

How blockchain, NLP, AI-driven tools, machine learning, serverless computing, and devops innovations will change life for developers in 2018. My predictions include: complaints about JavaScript, complaints about CSS, and about 63 new JavaScript frameworks that are the moose's caboose

Coming to Devops-Developers working in multiple projects can work together and can check in their code simultaneously without taking latest of files and finally pull requests has to be triggered and team lead has to merge all code changes.By implementing this practice no one will be in silo and we call it as a feature Continuous Integration.Now to make sure a continuous deployment to happen your project should pass your unit test cases.By implementing Test driven development you can make sure there are no unit test fails and you can move to the higher versions as per your need.There are also auto commit builds features are present in DevOps tools which makes project coordinators or managers life easier.This technology wouldn't cut jobs rather make sure to use existing testing resources to write code and automate the test by using tools based features.If application module is large then testers can also write unit test cases and pass them to implement a through checkpoint before application moves to higher environment.
AI- driven tools development will be one of the hot cake in 2018.BOTS/chart tools creation will obviously cut repetitive jobs that basically needs human support.The BOT/Chart should mature itself by taking more requests then they can perform the accurate actions.This must take time hence human resources who are in this field can upgrade themselves before this tools gets a full swing.
Machine Learning-This can be divided into Supervised and un supervised algorithms and a key driver for implementing AI.Data scientists will have a great role in implementing algorithms and core developers can get opportunity to write the code that implement these algorithms.
Natural language processing needs some time though and i don't feel there will be huge amount of job.This job will be limited with companies like Microsoft,Google,Apple or any kind of ISV's. Candidate with this niche skill is rare in market and if there is a surge then right people with this experience will get opportunity to grow themselves.I believe those who want a fresh start in this field has to crack in the above mentioned companies.

Intel has "already issued updates for the majority of processor products introduced within the past five years," per the company press release, and expects to have 90 percent of affected chips produced within the past five years patched by the end of the week. Well, allrighty then, problem solved. Moving on.
Say... I don't remember patching my CPU, do you?
|
|
|
|
|
One question remains: which 90%?

Intel claims sale was unrelated, but he planned sale after researchers disclosed bugs. What a coincidence!

Is he going to pay for the bug-damage himself?

I doubt it. 
However, this appears to be a textbook case of insider trading. I expect the SEC to come down on him like a ton of bricks.
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.

The key thing software companies and developers need to focus on when developing a new product is not writing more code. Is this another one of those sneaky, "test first" articles?

If you want to use reusable code, you first have to write reusable code.
