Since we depend even more on getting online for everything in our lives, we’re more than ready to be done with passwords. You'll take my P@ssw0rd1 from my cold, dead fingers

What could go wrong? In this "no password" future... a new windows update to roll out the most important change of colour in the icon than nobody asked for and then... 60% of the windows users are locked out everything that is based in its "no-password-system"
why the ![Elephant | [mastadon]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/elephant.gif) don't you concentrate in improving your operating system and stop breaking things everytime you roll out an update, instead of messing around with things that you should not even touch?

Rust's appeal among developers and software engineers is growing as giants like Microsoft and AWS look to the language to help build infrastructure and systems. Who doesn't want a language that never sleeps?

Quote: The Rust project's developer survey from the first quarter of 2020 attracted less than 4,000 developers, many of whom didn't use it regularly. The project's September 2020 survey drew a record 8,323 responses and 83% of them said they actually used Rust.
Oh... a survey about rust, done by Rust Project with a bit more than eight thousand votes and the major part used rust...
And not even "using", just "used"
Quote: But the project notes that this is not part of Rust's stability guarantee, even though Rust is designed so that new warnings don't break dependencies.
hhhhmmmm why should a warning break something? Am I missing something?

What's remarkable is that in a survey of Rust developers, 17% don't actually use it.

The C world can't add new warnings because doing so would break the builds of everyone who configured their tools to only succeed on zero warnings, but have processes as rigid as they are unwilling to allocate developer time to address potential problems that an improved tool chain could theoretically detect.
I'm guessing what they've done is to version warnings so ![Sunshine | [little ray of sunshine]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/sunshine.gif) s running a zero warnings and zero code changes world can just baseline their tools on the 2020.12 warning level, and blissfully ignore all the language maintainers attempts to help find more problems with their code short of production.

Thanks for the explanation. I didn't thought of it.

New research has shown robots can encourage humans to take greater risks in a simulated gambling scenario than they would if there was nothing to influence their behaviors. If the robot jumped off a bridge, would you?
Apparently, people would.

Or the participants knew it was all a game and decided to "go for broke".
(That they associate robot with AI shows that the researchers know how the grant game is played.)

These desktop technologies were unavailable before .NET Core 3.0, as earlier versions of .NET Core focused on web-based applications via ASP.NET Core. Or for cross-platform .NET - all of the above

0) I don't understand why the talked about the XAML-2009 support. It's not a "breaking change" that they STILL haven't added it.
1) They released the WPF source code on GitHub, effectively abandoning further development.
2) Avalonia - while a great idea - is still not even at 1.0, and the most recent version (0.9) came a year ago.

Calling out the removal of the 1.0 statusbar control felt a bit odd. Elsewhere IIRC reading that they dropped a number of other 1.0 UI controls: The datagrid, main menu, context menu, and toolbar. The 1.0 grid was awful, being a pre-generic control it only supported collections of `object`s and had terrible customization; we used multiple 3rd party grids (with their own issues, which is why we used several different ones in the same app) to actually make a useful application. When we finally upgraded from 1.1 to 3.5 (legacy OS requirements wouldn't let us do so earlier), one of the first things I did was to switch everything to the new typed 2.0 grid. (The first thing I did was to spend a few days unsuccessfully trying to port the old grids forward.) We also upgraded the menus/toolbars for that release, but other than newer looking UI styling I don't recall what was actually different between them and the old versions.

IBM just shattered previous records for magnetic tape’s data storage capabilities, ensuring it meets demand for the next decade It's sticky on both sides?
I'm probably wrong here, but I think if you want to store 580 TB on a single tape, there are better solutions to your problem.

Deloitte Consulting published a report today that suggests a golden age of AI is in the offing, assuming organizations can implement and maintain a consistent approach to machine learning operations (MLOps). Someone left the buzzword generator on again?
"MLOps, however, is different from artificial intelligence for IT operations (AIOps)."
