It won't take off until they add a pokemon-catching module.
It'll be a bit cumbersome and awkward (and even dangerous), though, fixing a computer monitor to some kind of harness, so that it will stay in front of your face as you walk; not to mention that you'll also have to carry a base unit and a keyboard -- and a generator, to power it all.
Perhaps they need more research -- into the meaning of "HUD", for example.
If their code is written with keyword errors that big, it'll be an absolute disaster.

Wow! You can copy and paste code that you don't understand from Stack Overflow without having to switch between windows? How cool is that?
Will we be seeing fewer "can you do my homework?" questions on CP from now on or will the question just change to "how do I get Kite to do my homework?"
Slogans aren't solutions.

Our annual survey shows moderate 3% growth in IT pay -- but salaries could be headed for a roller-coaster ride, with wildly different forecasts from experts on IT spending, hiring and compensation. That's OK, I hear mo' money means mo' problems

In a recent study (pdf), economists Daren Acemoglu of MIT and Pascual Restrepo of Boston University try to quantify how worried we should be about robots. "More human than human" is our motto.

2000AD got it right, then.
Build a wall around a section of North America, and populate it entirely with the unemployed.
Incidentally, I (and just about everyone in Europe) will happily contribute to the eastern wall, Russia would be over the moon to pay for the western wall (they'll just hack Wall Street, to get the money), so all we need to know is whether or not you Canadians are willing to pay for the northern wall (the rest of us will chip in, if it runs too expensive).

Our brains’ creative flow isn’t time-bound the way the typical brainstorm is. Here are a few ways to shake things up. Cage match!

Quote: Split your team into two groups, and put each in a separate room. The teams are set up to work on the same topic or problem statement. Team 1 doesn’t speak; they write down their ideas quietly and individually. Team 2 has a more traditional brainstorm, calling out their ideas and writing them up on the whiteboard.
Team 1's conclusion: "Jeeze, those guys are idiots!"Quote: Tell everybody to take them home, read through those notes, and sleep on them. The next morning, have everybody take 15 minutes to write down any new ideas that came to them. Then share these ideas with everyone in the group.
Non-attendees' contribution: "boobies, Boobies, BOOBIES, Boobies, boobies!"Quote: A group of people come together to brainstorm on a given problem for a half-hour to an hour. Their ideas are written up and handed out to the entire team. Now everyone is sent outside for a walk.
Perambulists' contribution: "Can I Please go back to my desk, now?"
But they missed one:
The Functional Method
Get everyone to write down what they think of HR, then give the results to HR and watch until they start crying.
This method works because they and their bright ideas get out of your way, for a while, so you've got time to think.

Developers are scrambling to fix flaw that allows theft, malicious code execution. There's a problem keeping all your passwords in one place?

The only problem being that it takes me ages to type out the ASCII art.

The code of these projects will still live on GitHub and Google’s self-hosted git service, of course, with the new site functioning as a central directory for them. Everything they'll cancel next year, in one convenient location!

That is a classic example of style over substance. The horrible drifting tag cloud thing in the "projects" page fails to offer any way of seeing projects by subject, author or anything remotely useful. OK you can search, but that isn't the best way of discovery by accident.

Given their abundance and the voraciousness of their appetites, two European biologists recently wondered: If you were to tally up all the food eaten by the world's entire spider population in a single year, how much would it be? Just thought you should know. Also: AaaAAAAAAAAAAaaaHhh!

A team of scientists from Boston University have found a way to hack into mammalian cells -- human cells, even -- and make them follow logical instructions like computers can. They're good at P problems, less so with NP problems

I wonder if these guys realise that they've just signed the death warrant for universities.
Who needs to sit in lecture halls, listening to boring old farts, when a simple injection will give you the knowledge you need?
Oh, and training cells to not degrade during mitosis will turn everyone into boring old farts -- really old boring old farts.
You think the Interwebs and mobile technology are good? Wait until all you need is a tree or a flower, nearby.
Hell, I had all this stuff ideated years ago -- decades, even -- because it's the only completely concrete idea for the way things could go.
I just wish they'd get a move on!

Unit testing, or saturation testing?

Don't know both of them. I know only customer testing; very effective and very very expressive answers in case of failures
