Microsoft Formally Shuts Down Its TechRewards Program (neowin.net)

From a report on Neowin: A few months ago, Microsoft announced that it was shuttering its TechRewards program in 2017. The project, that was originally started by Nokia under the name DVLUP rewards program, aimed to reward developers with badges, XP, gift cards and other prizes for developing or incorporating new features in their apps. When Microsoft acquired Nokia's devices and services division back in 2014, the program was rebranded to Microsoft TechRewards. Today, Microsoft has formally shut down the TechRewards program.

    Hillary voters won't be paying?

    The simple fact is: We don't need a wall, we need a national ID program, for jobs _and_ voting. Legal immigrants could also get a job with a green card.

    Implement a good ID program, put teeth into the laws regarding hiring wetbacks and the Mexicans will go home on their own dime.
