Updates are easily the biggest problem facing the Android ecosystem, and Google is working hard to fix that. "Once in a blue moon" is 'regular', isn't it?

std::variant is a library addition in C++17 for sum types, and std::visit is one of the ways to process the values in a std::variant. Because every language needs a variant type

for safety's sake, when the var is is captured by an auto, does the compiler throw a std::elephant_you exception?

In 1900, German mathematician David Hilbert proposed a list of 23 math problems that would change the world. Some have been solved. Others remain. DARPA attempted to update the list a few years back. Here are the highlights. In case you need something to keep you occupied for your next coffee break

Google says it will take steps to ensure that humans are not fooled when they get called by software bots that can convincingly mimic the human voice. I thought humans didn't use phones anymore, wouldn't that be a clue?

After 26 years, Boston Dynamics is finally getting ready to start selling some robots. Frickin' lasers sold separately

A team of researchers in Germany and at the University of Michigan have demonstrated how infrared laser pulses can shift electrons between two different states, the classic 1 and 0, in a thin sheet of semiconductor. Also, may cause seizures

Over 15,000 bricks and a Lego Mindstorms heart bring the game to life. Wizardry!

It's hyper-cool but I rather suspect that a classic pin table would have cost less than 15,000 Lego bricks.

Microsoft Principal Software Engineer Adam Tuliper explains the .NET Standard, a formal specification of .NET APIs that are intended to be available on all .NET implementations in order to establish greater uniformity in the .NET ecosystem. .NET Standard, not to be confused with standard .NET (or .NET Core, .NET Dry, or .NET menthol)

t this moment there’s a proposal to add standardized 2D graphics support to C++, known as P0267 or simply IO2D. It hasn’t been published as TS yet and there’s some controversy around it, but still, the proposal was proven to be implementable on different platforms and the reference implementation is available for test usage. See C draw. Draw C, draw
OK, it's C++. Whatevs, that didn't work into the rhyming scheme

Sounds like a terrible idea. Create a whole different standard if you want that. You could even call it OpenGL or something like that.

I disagree, this could really help. College courses can use it to teach basic graphic principles without tying to a particular vendor or implementation. Useful for basic output such as graphs. I don't believe it is intended for use in production graphical applications - simply to allow basic graphics to be available on most platforms.

CodeAI is able to predict new defects in code and suggest simple fixes for the issue. Does it include the option, "throw this out and start again?"
