It's taken Microsoft quite a while to realize that can get free work, hasn't it?

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging 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?

It was said that Windows 10 would help the ever declining PC market gain traction once again, but even though Windows 10 has been out for 5 months now, the PC market continues to decline, with the previous quarter seeing the biggest market share decline in history. You're letting the market down - get out there and buy!

I can't find the quote, but I vaguely recall someone from the Fish Shoppe saying something along those lines as part of their "billion devices" promise.
Or it could have just been a tech reporter. They say the silliest things sometimes.

The absence of XAML/WPF support makes it a no-go. It's gotta do it all, or it's pointless. I'd love to move off Windows, but my WPF work keeps me tethered to it.

Depends on what you want to import from VS - I'm pretty sure they will allow importing VS projects.

Reply from Matt Elis:
"ASP.NET support is already there, including loading DNX (project.json) based apps. We’ll have support for editing XAML, but no plans for a XAML designer right now"
I do get your need for WPF - personally I'm not a fan. And that's simply because the editor sucks BIG TIME. I think the one that can come with a good XAML GUI will make a lot of money 
And unfortunately, that's not gonna be me

"Furthermore, the direction finder tracks the position of the pilot who subsequently can be arrested. Due to the Smart Responsive Jamming Technology developed by Airbus Defence and Space, the jamming signals are blocking only the relevant frequencies used to operate the drone while other frequencies in the vicinity remain operational. Since the jamming technology contains versatile receiving and transmitting capabilities, more sophisticated measures like remote control classification and GPS spoofing can be utilized as well. This allows effective and specific jamming and also a controlled takeover of the UAV."

If Boeing could track and disable the operators, they'd really have something!

I know I saw a proposal for a counter sniper system that would trigger automatic weapons fire back at the source. Combine that with a DF antenna to find where the drone controller is at...

New research finds evidence for an innate ratio processing ability that may play a role in determining our aptitude for understanding fractions and other formal mathematical concepts. n/m of you will understand this

I understood about 1/2 of that.

As a school kid, there was a puzzle our teacher posed:
That fraction'th part of the sum of half a fraction and twice the same fraction, is equal to that fraction itself. Find that fraction.
Note: I am translating this from my native language Kannada; so there are possibilities of ambiguity in the translation. Kindly excuse me for that.
