One group of scientists thinks that we may already have detected technosignatures from a technological civilization’s Dyson Spheres, but the detection is hidden in our vast troves of astronomical data. Will they settle for a Ringworld?

Dyson Sphere Program was pretty cool (PC game). It's kinda like Factorio where the basic gameplay is pretty much "logistical nightmare".
Basically you're a big robot thing that can build various industrial process, sucking up the local resources, and pouring them into launching rockets and such to build Dyson Spheres.
They added some kind of alien opposition not so long ago and I've not tried it. The game kinda stands fine without opposition, imo.
But it's really cool to plan out the whole structure of your sphere and then see it slowly take shape as 100s of launchers shoot solar sails and rockets sourced from entire planets of industrial process you built.

In other words, take the existing component and run it before making any changes to it at all. Does it work? Do not try to change the code. Only realize, there is no code.

We are very excited to announce C++ support for AI-Powered Rename Suggestions from GitHub Copilot in Visual Studio 2022. How about renaming 'i' to: 'NumberThatIncreasesEveryTimeThroughTheLoop'?

We are launching our newest flagship model and making more capabilities available for free in ChatGPT. This one goes to 'o'
It was either that, or a quote from Office Space (that I'm sure you can guess, but that isn't kid sister safe enough IMO)

Microsoft has improved the C# Dev Kit for Visual Studio Code (VS Code) with support, Aspire integration and easy SDK acquisition – but developers are complaining of “terrible quality”. But what do they know of C#

The question is... are those "improvements" in the way they are described in the dictionary or in the way they are described in the windows marketing handbook?

Adding features is faster and easier in good code than bad code. "Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill!"

On the other hand... how fast will the good code be transformed into bad code by the additions?

Old aphorism: quality, speed, content--choose two. But I'd say that's in the short term. In the long term, taking time to refactor extends a product's lifetime. Not doing so slows development to the point where it may even become unprofitable.

Now, Microsoft Word will use the ‘merge formatting’ option by default. They do listen to feedback (it just takes decades some times)
