No code is the best way to write secure and reliable applications. Write nothing; deploy nowhere.
Actually, code isn't the problem, it's data. First we had flat files. Then we had SQL. Then we had No SQL. I think it's time for the "No Data" revolution!

The subcontracted workers were challenging their termination, but they couldn’t hold out. “Union, Union, Union City blue”
Technically subcontractors, but no one has heard of Lionbridge, so the headline mentions Microsoft.

Microsoft should have just hired some exterminators to get rid of their bedbug and roach problems.

With Sketch 2 Code, developers can draw wire frame sketches and export them into source code. No, it was supposed to be a monkey, not a database front-end

So how does the algorithm solve the "magic happens here" portion?

With a little AI pixie dust, of course. I’m sure it’s 100% effective.

Am I reading it right that it's output is raw html, as opposed to the specific flavor/markup/WT![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) used by <insert buzzword="" compliant="" frontend="" library="" here="">?
If so it seems like it'd be really limited in actual use beyond the simplest of quasi-static or fully static pages.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing 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?

Antimatter continues to behave just like regular matter, no matter what tests scientists throw at it. And in the face of yet another new challenge, antimatter has again refused to crack. Probably best not to try to catch it though
|

If they keep disturbing the antimatter, they might make it madder.

Antimatter continues to behave just like regular matter .. so whats the point in dropping it ?

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

Antimatter has mostly been manipulated via electromagnetic forces, and indeed behaves like matter in this respect. We have yet to collect enough antimatter in one place to test how it reacts to gravity.
If, for example, it has a positive inertial mass so that it accelerates "normally" but a negative gravitational mass, that is it falls "upwards", we would have to rewrite quite a lot of physics. Don't you think this would be interesting?
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

To see whether it doesn't when dropping it.

To gain a better understanding of how many code snippets hosted on GitHub's gist system are actually executable, researchers at North Carolina State University conducted a thorough evaluation of the executability of publicly available Python scripts hosted on the platform. Executable, or justification for execution?

Russian arms maker Kalashnikov on Thursday presented its new electric car inspired by a rare 1970s model, saying the new technology will rival Elon Musk's Tesla. Well, they've certainly brought the S3XY with that model!

From the article: rare 1970s model
There's a reason it was rare, yuck.

A coffee-delivering drone that can detect when people are tired and bring them a drink has been patented by technology company IBM. That's what I hear buzzing over Chris' office?
|
|
|
|
|
Now that's a good idea! Will it make the coffee? Or just a delivery service?
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

IBM? Does Wally work for IBM?

This could be useful when they close down and spin IBM into International Coffee Machines ICM

Why change the name? What could possibly be more important to a business than ensuring that its employees have a steady supply of coffee?
