InSight landed on Mars in 2018 with the aim of studying seismic activity. I think I have some (Martian) dust in my eye
Quote: My power’s really low, so this may be the last image I can send. Don’t worry about me though: my time here has been both productive and serene. If I can keep talking to my mission team, I will – but I’ll be signing off here soon. Thanks for staying with me.

The female computing pioneer drew on lessons from her artistic pursuits. So, it was in Perl?

When guiding an engineering team, you’ve got to encourage constant growth and learning, like exploring different tech stacks. "Time may change me, but you can't trace time"

There is a wider question of what makes a software developer more effective. There's also: swearing, pleading, Googling, and copy and pasting

Dont make software solutions, make business solutions with software as a tool.
Also soo many screenwriter movies  Category:Films about screenwriters - Wikipedia
And yes I want romcom superhero movies, make the 10x 10$ million budget movies instead of generic one.
the one "hacking" are the one not writing that game for a day job, or working on chat programs, but day to day software where. Same for the copy editor at a small technical documents publisher, they gonna write over christmas that story for them and not the next big thing to break the new york times best seller.

It 'abused its dominant position' by tying Marketplace to the main Facebook site. I bet 'Big Bulletin board down by the community centre' is behind this!

Sadly, this implies that there will at least be a couple of 100,000's that will do it.

Kohler showed off the Numi 2.0 Smart Toilet way back in 2019, but it’s finally available to be installed inside homes starting today. Hey, Alexa: how can I tell people I have way too much money?
And put some bog paper on my wish list (although I guess you don't really need it with this toilet - think of the cost savings!)

I think that the bog is absolutely the right place for Alexa, and Siri, and Cortana, and...

I can't help thinking, if I'm hired as a software developer for a low/no code company, I would expect to see janitorial services as a job requirement.

Researchers recently discovered a Windows code-execution vulnerability that has the potential to rival EternalBlue, the name of a different Windows security flaw used to detonate WannaCry, the ransomware that shut down computer networks across the world in 2017. Merry Christmas one and all!
Fortunately, it's already been patched (back in September), assuming you didn't ignore that patch.
