Apple has recently addressed a vulnerability that lets attackers with root privileges bypass System Integrity Protection (SIP) to install "undeletable" malware and access the victim's private data by circumventing Transparency, Consent, and Control (TCC) security checks. Is it just me, or does it seem like all the OS companies are looking at everyone else's for vulnerabilities?
And ignoring the log in their own eye?

Windows 11 has received a batch of new widgets that let you keep an eye on CPU, GPU, RAM, and network utilization. In case you need to monitor if your computer is working

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?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Even though Edge and Chrome were the first to abandon ship, Mozilla Foundation decided to keep supporting Firefox users on Windows 7 and 8/8.1. However, this cannot last forever, so after months of careful consideration, Mozilla is finally ready to reveal the end of support date. I'm sure those users will be bothered by the lack of updates

Although ChatGPT is still in its infancy, its appearance has impacted virtually all fields relying on technology. Which is to say, pretty much everything is or will soon be touched by it.

Microsoft’s C# lead designer Mads Torgersen, along with principal software engineer Dustin Campbell, presented a look at what is coming in C# 12 and beyond at the company’s Build event last week. If they update it will be trouble, and if they don't it will be double

Mads and colleagues ... well, i am curious what next really-big-things will/might shift the tectonic plates of C# and.NET around ... like LINQ, TypeScript ?
Once the whole stack is ? : webified, chatified ? well, anyhow, we got tabs and colored delimiters in Win Terminal to chew on a while

We knew this generative AI tool could create code, but did you know ChatGPT also can explain and rewrite your code? Maybe we should call it the Code Whisperer. With a pinch of pixie dust and a wave of the magic wand
|

It'll be interesting to see how generative AI becomes integrated into IDE's. I fear it'll be like someone watching over my shoulder, making suggestions and corrections, and will be rather distracting. Brings new meaning to "pair programming."
I'm not sure this will make code better, but I am sure that I pity the programmers of the future.

ai will write what it feels like .. another ai will test the code .. find bugs... and both will fight and screw up and later resign and go... then they will hire another ai to read the code that the old ai wrote.....

I decided I would build a physical Turing machine that could execute code written for a real processor. Or you could just download a copy of the game and play that?
Yet another person that needs a new hobby, IMO

With that headline I was expecting a Stadler and Waldorf type remark.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

"Windows 365 might just be the first significant step toward a future where you don’t need a dedicated Windows PC to use Windows"
Just the exact wet dream like desires of major tech companies cloud providers. To get users to let go of that last bit of physical hardware so the cloud provider and whoever they are partnered with fully control everything. If anyone thinks this kind of control want be abused they have their heads burried in the sands or possibly in the cloud.
