I have absolutely no idea what you said, but it sounds like some medieval torture involving flogging and putting sharp objects where the sun don't shine. Hmmm, sounds like you're talking about git.
[edit]Ah, ok, the joke is on me, mostly. I wrote the above comment before clicking on the link. Well, it sure sounded like something real! I think that speaks volumes about the inane syntax of Git! [/edit]

Even the US government is getting in on the act for don't use IE[^]. The question is - will MS be forced to issue an emergency XP patch for older versions of IE (because later versions of IE are incompatible with XP).

I doubt it, given that there's a workaround[^] available.

If we ignore ie long enough, it will probably go away!!

Gathered on sites such as the subreddit r/darknetplan, entrepreneurs and activists discuss plans to create an alternative to the current Internet by beaming data packets from router to router, circumventing ISPs. Let's all be mesh buddies!

Makes sense to me; good to see it's working in some areas.

These folks[^] have been using mesh network for a while now. I just finished working on a project for them helping to write the Kiosk software.
I would think that mesh networks will definitely be the way to go in the future -- it's secure from the biggest vulnerability the Internet has in security: governments shutting down ISP's. And it's secure from the second biggest vulnerability: corporations in control of the network.

Up until this point, the musical genre known as "drone rock" had been a weird, indie niche that consisted of slow, loud guitar noise. If machinists and programmers have their way, that description will need some major rewriting—but it'll probably seem just as weird. Bands with real people playing real instruments are soooooo last year.

Facebook and Twitter are on a well-documented mission to one-up each other. But Facebook threw the latest punch on Thursday, announcing a new feature that caters to Twitter’s most avid users: Journalists. Breaking news! I just ate a delicious grilled cheese sandwich.

In my experience, journalists seem to be quite avid users of Wikipedia. It's quicker than having an independently acquired education.

The problem is, is that 99.9999999999999% of the drivel posted on farcebook is not "news".

In yet another sign that the internet is eating traditional television, Netflix announced on Friday that it has inked a deal with three cable TV companies to make watching Netflix as easy as changing the channel. In related news, the company also announced that it will now be known simply as "Flix".

Always using the latest high-tech gadget is one way to boost your image at work, new research suggests.
Indeed, business professionals who want to be perceived as leaders should be investing in the latest technology breakthroughs, according to a study published recently in The Journal of Product Innovation Management. "No. I'm not playing games... I'm advancing my career."

This article highlights how a discovered quirk is just a few steps away from becoming a feature. "It's a feature." Here we go again.

Chaochao Lu and Xiaoou Tang at the Chinese University of Hong Kong say they’ve developed a face recognition algorithm called GaussianFace that outperforms humans for the first time. Yea, but can it write a symphony?
|
|
|
|
|
I can write symphony, but still I don't like to do so. Am I artificial intelligence or not?
|
|
|
|
|
The article contained: But when the algorithm is faced with images that are entirely different from the training set, it often fails. “When the [image] distribution changes, these methods may suffer a large performance drop,” say Chaochao and Xiaoou.
The problem where the computer defeats humans is a narrowly-defined situation where the system is trained with a specific set of faces.
Typically humans can recognize thousands of faces in various contexts much of the time.
It is still an impressive accomplishment though.
