Microsoft used its recent Inspire partner event to rename the Common Data Service tools that support, manage, and work with Common Data Model entities to Dataflex Pro
MS renamed CDS to Dataflex Pro. It will get a new name soon as Dataflex is a trademark owned by DataAccess. This shows how much homework MS did in announcing this.

Microsoft publishes an “End of Service” date for each version of Windows 10. While you might think you can hold onto your version of Win10 until that date, Microsoft starts pushing you onto the next version four months early. That takes a big bite out of the promised 18-month lifespan. Because the end is always nigh

Of course... they do need to make the beta tests with the users before trying to have a working version for the deadline

Search should be a commodity, a feature that should be as easy as possible to integrate. For the next time someone tells you, "Search me"

Thank you for sharing this. This could be useful to me in my next project as I was looking at SQL full text search indexing but this could be easier.

Interesting it mentions Lucene but not the obvious inspiration which is a product called Solr.

MIT has taken offline its highly cited dataset that trained AI systems to potentially describe people using racist, misogynistic, and other problematic terms. So people will have to train the AI by hand again

Twenty-five years on from the date the famous “.mp3” filename was chosen, we take a look back at how it came to be, and why it took over the world. As a gift, may I suggest a new audio format?
I was thinking of going with 'Because some llamas deserve it', but that might be too obscure and/or not appropriate?

Source code from exposed repositories of dozens of companies across various fields of activity (tech, finance, retail, food, eCommerce, manufacturing) is publicly available as a result of misconfigurations in their infrastructure. Does this count as 'open-source'? (Or just 'opened source'?)
"Kottmann believes there are thousands of companies that expose proprietary code by failing to properly secure SonarQube installations."

We’d assume at this point that every smartphone user knows that their touchscreen is one of the nastiest devices they own. Coming soon: headphones that don't need a head
Or keyboards that don't use keys?
Powercords without power?

Meh, powercords without power are passé. I've got a couple of boxes of 'em if you'd like one.

Looks really cool, but I wonder if this can compete with other established languages such as Malbolge, Brainfuck and Whitespace.
I might use it in my next project, in favor of LOLCODE.
Most of my code is currently written in Whitespace, but best tool for the job and all that

I do hope you're printing all your source code off for long-term storage though.

Scientists successfully stored 'Wizard of Oz' into DNA, and this yellow brick road could lead to the future of a data storage. It's hard to get a decent framerate with polymerase though

I think words like "virus", "memory corruption" and similar will get to a new level...
