Cool!
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

Scientists have made a crucial step towards unlocking the "holy grail" of computing - microchips that mimic the way the human brain works to store and process information. I hope they know the capital of Assyria

I'd like to think that the holy grail of computing is to mimic intelligent lifeforms rather than humans but, blimey, that really could take things to a whole new level.

Back in May, Microsoft announced Windows 10 S, a version of Windows 10 Pro that is locked down to the Windows Store. Because who really needs to accomplish anything at work?

If you're interested in the internals of a system like the .NET Runtime, these docs are a gold mine for you. Secrets THEY don't want you to know
Oh, maybe they do. They did write the book, after all.

Still fairly secret ...

Time Travel Debugging (TTD) is a reverse debugging solution that allows you to record the execution of an app or process, replay it both forwards and backwards and use queries to search through the entire trace. You just have to debug at 88 mph

Twitter has combined gnip.com and dev.twitter.com to produce the new developer.twitter.com site, which is said to be “a complete reference centre” for its platform and a “hub for all developer resources.” All programs compile to 140 characters (or less)
|
|
|
|
|
You meant 280 or less?

Nope... the 2nd 140 are for debug purposes

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

After years of increasing involvement and engagement in open source software projects and communities, Microsoft takes what may be their most dramatic step, joining the home of the open source software movement. "There is this thing called the GPL, which we disagree with … nobody can ever improve the software."
Yeah, I know Open Source != GPL.

Twitter’s iconic 140-character limit for tweets may be on the way out. This changes EVERYTHING!
Oh, my life will now be complete. Or something. FSM knows I just lives for the Twitter. #really_people #who_cares_about_your_lunch #get_on_with_your_life

First Microsoft changes the command window colors and now this? Tech breakthroughs are moving at the speed of light here. When my grandkids are on their devices I'll be bringing up the "Back in my day we were limited to 140 characters while walking up hill both ways." I'll know we've finally arrived when they come out with a plastic bag emoji to pick up after the poo emoji.

You should copyright that.. that does sound very, very possible..
Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

New Twitter!
Now, twice as twitty!
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Oh great. Trump's rants will be longer. Maybe he can be still be limited to 140 chars. Better yet, 0 chars.
Sorry for SB-y post.

How about a random number from 0 to 16. And then a random timeout between tweets from our hour to one year.

Isn't the whole point of Twitter - assuming that it has one - that it's custom made for people whose attention spans fizzle out somewhere round the 140 character mark?
Any attempt to lengthen that will just push "#TLDR" to the top of the trending #Twit-tag list.

This is an absolutely horrible idea. The entire soul of Twitter is in the brevity of expression. Allowing users to write longer 1/many
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?
