An entire class of vulnerabilities in Intel chips allows attackers to steal data directly from the processor, according to new reports from a group of cybersecurity researchers from around the world. Intel, Apple, Google and Microsoft among other tech giants have released patches to address the flaws. Request permission to panic?

I question someone actually being able to pull off a successful attack on a system not doing just one thing.

any computer more complex than a stop light controller is doing more than 'one thing', these days.

In the wake of March's terrorist attack in Christchurch, New Zealand, Microsoft is partnering up with other tech giants to counter extremist content online. "Terminate with extreme prejudice"

Who gets to decide what is "extreme" content? These days you are called a racist or a Nazi for pretty much everything the regressive-left dislikes. This sounds like censorship under the guise of safety.
Let's be honest, Silicon Valley is a harbour of regressive-left politics, so this seems like a way of shutting down all dissenting opinions and views whilst telling us it's for our own good.
And why only in the wake of the Christchurch attack? Why not in the wake of the Sri Lankan attack which killed far more people (I think we all know the answer to that though).

Name-calling is always the first stop on the liberal railroad.

But he's correct.

It’s well known that some countries are unhappy with the Western coalition that has traditionally held sway over internet governance. internet++?

If you find yourself learning C# and .NET and come upon the "Run your first C# Program" documentation you may have noticed a "Try the code in your browser" button that lets you work through your first app entirely online, with no local installation! You're running C# and .NET in the browser! It's a great way to learn that is familiar to folks who learn JavaScript. If it's good enough for JavaScript, it's good enough for C#

I wonder how those learning .Net are going to grok these instructions to get started:
Here's the experience. Once you have the .NET SDK - Pick the one that says you want to "Build Apps." Just get the "try" tool! Try it!
Open a terminal/command prompt and type dotnet tool install --global dotnet-try
Now you can either navigate to an empty folder and type
dotnet try demo
or, even better, do this!
ACTION: Clone the samples repo with
git clone https://github.com/dotnet/try -b samples
then run
"dotnet try"
and that's it! I'm surprised the article didn't mention .NET Fiddle: [^] ... uhhh ... errr ... maybe a shout-out to LinqPad ?

Click on the "Run your first C# Program" link take you to the standard MsDocs page with the cryptically named "Enter Focus Mode" button in a box titled "Try the code in your browser".
It's STILL not exactly a "Start Here! neon sign" experience.
But, it is cool that you get Intellisense and the "you dun f***ed up" squiggly line experience.

Hi Dave, After reading your comment, I went spelunking through all the orange text in the article to, finally, find a link to the on-line trial.
Clicking the run icon with the default "hello world" content resulted in: Quote: Unexpected end of JSON input

It worked for me using the latest Chrome.
Like I said, STILL not a good experience for first timers.

Hi, I also used the latest Chrome; I filed a bug report on GitHub.

Unlike a computer, a human knows when looking at four cats, four apples and the symbol 4 that they all have one thing in common – the abstract concept of "four" – without even having to count them. 1,2,3,4,hrair

An interface member can now be specified with a code body, and if an implementing class or struct does not provide an implementation of that member, no error occurs. Instead, the default implementation is used. Because you can never have enough places to add code
I still think those should just be base classes, but whatevs.

Leslie Nielsen talked about this a month or two ago. It was generally decided that the community is split on the usefulness of such a feature. I personally think it's pointless.
I wonder if you can inherit from multiple interfaces if they all have default methods. If you can, this is handy for getting around the arbitrary single-class inheritance we have today.

Misinformation, deliberate blackouts and the worst consequences of big tech are undermining the online world. The Web Foundation thinks it may have a way to fight back. If you don't start behaving, I'm turning the web off!
