Mmm...I have to try that home tonight, looks interesting!
Although... I don't think I have any bloatware, it's good to have a second opinion!
And I did notice that FoxitP PDF Reader, and even NVidia control panel or something came with some addon stuff.. and I almost installed Adobe PDF Reader and MSI Control Panel which both, definitely have bloatware (can you believe that both install an anti-virus app?! )

Big empty tiles with undecipherable icons in the upper left corner and something unintelligible in the bottom right corner. Lovely use of space. Oh wait, they're going for the W10 tile look!
And that post didn't actually say anything useful about why I should use this tool -- a lot of handwaving words and talking about the scary God mode.

Glad to see someone is still working on the tech, but even if 5mm is better than previous versions it's also still way too thick to go into any mass market phone or tablet.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Microsoft says Windows 10, version 22H2 will be the last feature update to be released for the Windows 10 operating system. The final version of the final version of Windows
Except for all the newer versions, of course

I'm not surprised. Windows 10 was first released in July 2015. Final support date of Oct 2025 is slightly more than 10 years. For Microsoft to remain in their two year support window for each version of Windows 10 then they can't release a new version of Windows 10 after Oct 14th of 2023, but since their fall release has skewed back to November this won't work. This makes last November's (Nov 2022) the final release for Windows 10.

The lawsuit cites statements from Elon Musk promoting the safety of Tesla's self-driving software I'm not a lawyer, but that seems to be an interesting defense strategy
and one I may use from now on for everything

Safer? Absolutely, but he still regularly and constantly oversells it. It's far from, "A Tesla car next year will probably be 90 percent capable of autopilot." (with variations every year since 2014). If he pushed it as driver assist, there'd be no grounds for this case. As it stands, I'm surprised they didn't push for a class action.

Undeniably, technology's ethical and responsible usage equates with a positive and sustainable future for the masses. The other 4% were quoted as saying, "Mwahahaha!"

Embarcadero has made available the Community Edition license for the most recent 11.3 release of Delphi and C++Builder. This is a free edition of either Delphi or C++Builder for students, hobbyists and startups. "Don't you, forget about me"
Now I'll watch as you all walk on by

Hmm. It requires a license key (good for one year only) and has an annual revenue cap of US $5,000. Compare & contrast to Visual Studio Community Edition, which may be used in enterprises with fewer than 250 PCs and with an annual revenue cap of US $1,000,000.
This is basically a trial edition with slightly better terms. I can't imagine why people aren't breaking down the doors to download it. /s

Coincidentally, I've just been playing with various Chat AIs. I tried asking this, which is derived from a a Rust Rustlings HashMap exercise.
Quote: Consider these lines.
England,France,4,2
France,Italy,3,1
Poland,Spain,2,0
Germany,England,2,1
Interpret "England,France,4,2" to mean England beat France by 4 goals to 2.
Calculate the total goals scored and total goals conceded for each team and display the results as a table.
I ran this through several AIs - ChatGPT, Bing Chat, Google Bard, Perplexity, YouChat, Phind.
Even though some of them generated some nice Python code they all failed more-or-less miserably. With Bing Chat I was able to coax it to the correct answer, but it took 6 attempts.
You're right, I made a typo. The total goals conceded by Germany is 1, not 2. I'm sorry for the error.😳
The correct table is:
| Team | Total goals scored | Total goals conceded |
| -- | ------------------ | -------------------- |
| England| 5 | 4 |
| France | 5 | 5 |
| Italy | 1 | 3 |
| Poland | 2 | 0 |
| Spain | 0 | 2 |
| Germany| 2 | 1 |
I hope this is the final answer. Thank you for your patience and feedback.🙏
So there's a way to go yet before AGI!

Introduction to ASP.NET Core Minimal APIs[^]
Quote: In recent .NET versions, there’s a new way to build JSON-based APIs with ASP.NET Core: Minimal APIs. I thought "Minimal APIs" have been around a while. Did a quick search in "Insider News" for "Minimal API" and found several mentions going back a few years. Maybe it's d different this time around because of "top level" ( ) statements?
