I read this article, and now all of my intelligence has been sucked out of my brain. The first comment has this spot on. And the word "redundancies" is something that should just go away.
Skills gap? I don't think so.

Artificial intelligence programs still struggle with basic problem-solving skills that people excel at, new research claims. The AI, or the researchers?
I suppose that was a softball one

That would make the book title (one of my textbooks) "Artificial Intelligence vs. Natural Stupidity" pretty appropriate.

Windows users are reporting that Hewlett Packard's HP Smart application is appearing on their systems, despite them not having any of the company's hardware attached. That HP printer must be around. Have you looked everywhere?
Just checked, and sure enough I had it on my machine as well. Odd. Thanks, Microsoft.

If there's an HP printer anywhere on the network Windows will install it.

Nothing HP in this house. I think it just got mistakenly added to an update.
(I suppose at some point I may have connected to the same WiFi network as some HP device, but that would have been the closest I got.)

There were lots of announcements this week of cool new features, AI enhancements, performance improvements, and much more. That was a lot to digest, so I thought I’d bring attention to some of my favorites. Not mine, his. But you get the idea?

Primary constructors is one of the new exciting features for C# 12.
However, there have been concerns from developers about whether to use them. Secondary constructors still considered acceptable

This article is pure clickbait. Clicking on the link, it took me to Cloud News or something. I'm sure Gartner got some $$ for the self-serving article.
Both of my primary customers started migrating to the cloud years ago. The first one has given up. They are now deploying appropriately spec'd generic servers and creating VMWare virtual machines as needed. They are doing this at the big sites of the corp.
The second customer has gone insane with security. They are moving to the "cloud" - Wipro - and to be honest, it's a complete abortion. Maybe that's a little harsh on Wipro. Most of the support is outsourced to India, and it's less than responsive. We're about to have a heated status meeting in 1 hr 9 minutes.
