Plants and bacteria, Mate. They're the computers of the future.
I've been saying that for almost 40 years, so I'm obviously referring to a later future than now.

This is the problem with the winio data slurping.
Professionals and people who know how to use computers switch off and block the data slurping, so the bulk of the metrics and "feedback" (I use that word reservedly, because the information is stolen from users, not provided by them) they're getting is from people who don't use computers in a professional capacity.
So do windows users want effective, non-distracting, efficient user interfaces, or do they want useless garbage like this?
I'd bet the numbers extracted from the data slurping say they want this useless garbage.

This article walks through the history of .NET Core and demonstrates how it has grown from basic support for Web and data workloads in version 1 to being able to run Web, desktop, machine learning, containers, IoT and more in version 3.0. Try it before the announce 4.0 and this is deprecated

Microsoft has launched a new $25,000 malware challenge for data scientists on the Google-owned Kaggle crowdsourcing site to develop an algorithm that can predict what types of Windows PCs are most likely to be soon infected with malware. Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Obviously they will come up with "Any Windows before the current version of Windows 10 will be riddled with malware." What other answer would you expect?

It's got to be just a publicity stunt, where they'll never have to pay the prize.
You could certainly feed infection data into a backprop or an NN, but the idea that the model of the machine makes a f@rt's worth of difference is beyond ridiculous.
The only thing that it might be possible to determine is what kind of person prefers which kind of device, and then that information can be integrated with shopping and location data, etc.
... So it turns out to be a personal-data slurp, after all.
No surprises, there.

Microsoft has issued an emergency update that fixes a critical Internet Explorer vulnerability that attackers are actively exploiting on the Internet. Looks like Microsoft can't release Windows Sandbox soon enough.

Internot Exploited/Dredge were the focus of some of MS's earliest sandboxing work. Anything evil attacking the OS from them already knows how to pwn an MS sandbox.
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?

We seem to be on the cusp of a revolution in storage. Various technologies have been demonstrated that have speed approaching that of current RAM chips but can hold on to the memory when the power shuts off—all without the long-term degradation that flash experiences. It is probably killing my old graduate advisor that other researchers are getting there before her.

Many users of Logitech's Harmony Hub smart home hub and remote were recently met with a nasty surprise. The device's latest firmware update, version 4.15.206, reportedly cuts off local access for Harmony Hubs. And this is why I have no interest in smart home devices. Unreliable, insecure, and short-lived.

It’s not often you can put nuclear weapons, terrorism and climate change on the same list as quantum computing, artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things, but the U.S. government believes all pose an “emerging threat” to its national security. I've been sayin' it. I've been sayin' it for ten years. Ain't I been sayin' it, Miguel? Yeah, I've been sayin' it.
