Most of the features are now in the product, but some are not yet in their final state. We expect that the release will be feature-complete with Preview 8. Because it's been over two weeks since the last time you got to install a preview build
"We announced support for Windows ARM64 as part of Preview 4. At that time, we had only enabled console and ASP.NET Core apps on Windows ARM64. The Preview 6 SDK now includes support for Windows Forms. That means you can build and run Windows Forms apps on Windows ARM64 devices, just like you would on x64. We’re still working on adding support for WPF on Windows ARM64."
WinForms and WPF were that tightly bundled to Win32 on Intel?

Quote: Removal of built-in WinRT support in .NET 5.0

More recently, we’ve been working closely with[...]
WinRT interop can be developed and improved separate from the .NET runtime.
I've seen announcement like this before. So which one is going to be deprecated... or re-prioritised, or downplayed?

Did the Wolowitz Zero-Gravity Waste Disposal System not meet snuff?
Anyways... Toilet Design Specifications The specifications listed below represent the maximum allowed values. Proposed designs should at least meet them and will preferentially be lower than them. The toilet design should:
Have a mass of less than 15 Kg in Earth’s gravity
Pardon me, but mass is independent of gravity; and will remain constant regardless if you are in outer space or sitting on Jupiter.

Microsoft is furthering its big Java push -- marked by last year's debut of the Java Engineering Group in its Developer Division -- by porting OpenJDK for Windows 10 on Arm (AArch64)-based devices. "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it."

This is kind of losing its meaning...
I suppose they (in MS) remember everytime they have screwed it up lately... (we do remember them).
And if they don't remember it (them), I think they are pretty close to Memento (2000) - IMDb[^]

The new tool comes specifically from Amazon Web Services and is designed to help their clients to craft interactive apps using a simple visual builder. No-code, with the added bonus of being written in something that can't be fixed later by a dev!
Honeycode.
Honeycode.
Who came up with that name, and who didn't decide to change it? Sounds like a dev-specific version of a spouse's todo list.
And now the jingle for Honeycomb cereal is going through my head for some reason.
"Honeycomb is big. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's not small: no, no, no."
You're welcome.

Inspired by the way an artist creates graffiti on a wall and using a novel combination of sprayable electronics and 3-D printing, the technique, called ProtoSpray, allows the creation of displays on surfaces that go beyond the usual rectangular and 2-D shapes. I thought we already had 3-D objects we could touch?

A team searching for signs of extraterrestrial intelligence has put together an Exotica Catalog, which lists every known type of celestial object, regardless of whether we understand it or not. Under the bed? Behind the couch? Utah?
Plain sight?

I don't know if there is extraterrestial intelligence (but I don't deny it either).
I only know that if they are really intelligent and have common sense they will get the hell out of here.
If they come... it is not going to end well, either for them or for us (most probably for us).

Mac users who rely on Windows virtualization software might be left in the lurch when Apple transitions to its own custom ARM processors later this year, as the company's Rosetta Intel-to-ARM translator does not support virtual machine apps. Looks like Apple has decided to save me some money

The company says it will now delete new users’ history after 18 months -- on a rolling basis -- by default. After all, that's ancient history in internet months
They get to prune data that may not be relevant anymore, and make themselves looks slightly, slightly, every so slightly less evil.

They have to set this (but the "good" news is that you can set to "only" 3 months).
Oh and because we all trust them:
Quote: If you’ve already had Location History and Web & App Activity turned on, we won’t be changing your settings. But we will actively remind you about the auto-delete controls through in-product notifications and emails, so you can choose the auto-delete setting that works for you.
