In my view, any modern programming language that aims for high performance should have some form of generics in it. {Generic blurb here}

For many companies, application modernization projects are difficult to execute. Here are three tactics for addressing the challenges. Management, the budget, and hard-coded tail fins?

The privacy-focused DuckDuckGo browser purposely allows Microsoft trackers on third-party sites due to an agreement in their syndicated search content contract between the two companies. Morals for sale (tuppence a bag)

They're third party trackers in this case and my MS-Edge settings block them by default.

I recently read a report that tested all major browsers. The only ones that didn't manipulate results by dropping or downgrading various websites were Brave and the Russian Yandex. Yandex probably manipulates Russian results, but the searches were using English, so that wouldn't have shown up.

The service provides developers with access to a range of OpenAI’s AI models, including the GPT-3 base series, Codex series and embedding models. Something-something brains-clouds (sorry, my cloud is currently empty of brains)

While Copilot was previously available in technical preview, it’ll become generally available starting sometime this summer And then they came for developers, and I did nothing as neither did the AI really
Very clumsy sentence, that.

Quote: GitHub’s AI-powered coding tool, will be free for students
I wonder... Will the number of "Gimme Code plzzz, its urgnt" and "Do my homework for me, because I am too lazy or too dumb to use google" users decrease after it being available?

Possibly, but those questions will then shift to "professional" programmers who used this tool.

Hmm, so by providing "answers", students will learn even less. Yup, that makes sense.

It does, in a predatory system. With college education available to anyone and everyone there are too many "skilled" workers out there. By creating a population of useless programmers who are totally dependant on suppliers to be functional, you create market, and allow the few who rise out of mediocrity to set their own employment terms.

Not building potential in favor of short term cutthroat practices has been the end of countless civilizations. Those who don't learn from the past...

Unless the politicians mix themselves in the matter somewhere along the way and make everything even worse...

Microsoft has tried and tried again with some form of "widgets" for Windows. You enjoyed them all the other times they tried in the past

The focus of this release was on enhancing our Figma plugin which generates your app XAML directly from Figma designs, as well as advancing Uno Extensions to help bootstrap your apps faster. For those that don't want to go to MAUI

According to Microsoft, Smart App Control is not just a simple block all unsigned apps feature as it also uses the power of artificial intelligence (AI) to only allow apps that are predicted to be safe So it works then?

Imagen is the company's version of OpenAI's DALL-E, but it isn't available to the public. Finally - I can get a oil painting depicting a fuzzy panda wearing sunglasses and a black leather jacket while skateboarding on a beach

The software maker will soon start testing a new feature that allows you to restore apps onto a new Windows 11 PC. The bad news? You have to get the apps from the Microsoft Store
|
|
|
|
|
One reason to do a fresh install is to NOT install old apps.

Not having to reinstall all my apps again is why I'm still using W10 OS install that started as either a Vista-64 or W7-64 install something like 15 years ago.
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?

I scrape and reinstall everything on my computers every 4-5 years. It's a good way to get rid of the cruft that collects over time - both on the disk and in memory (unneeded services and such).
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.
