the Internet of Things is a security disaster, the "mobile revolution" is a farce, cloud computing is outsourcing to people you shouldn't trust, "digital disruption" is niche and completely unpredictable, and the "perpetual increase of processing power" is a lie. starting a website is not always necessary and often a burden. social media is a hellscape of volatile idiots.
people don't need to "think digitally", what they need is to think for themselves.
have many organizations shifting their staffing models toward project-based, contingent work in hopes of landing the key skills necessary for their businesses to stay competitive in a constantly evolving technical landscape.... How should you adjust to this shifting employment landscape?
the "gig economy" actually isn't new. this happened with blue collar work and they got abused badly until they formed unions. why do you think this will end any differently?
unless you have to run some business app, nobody should have Java installed. seriously, there is no need for bytecode language bullshit. Flash is almost gone, please, put a bullet in Java.
if you want to render a webpage the fastest: cut corners (standards be damned!) if you want to render a webpage properly: don't use a microsoft product
heartbleed was a blessing in disguise because companies were blindly assuming this software was secure and thus never investing a dime in it's development. this internet-scale problem woke up some people and now they are actually investing in real security.

so now the Exchange Server reads your emails and writes a fanfic where you and your boss are star-crossed lovers for 180 days? i certainly didn't see that coming.
"normal" plastic wont break down under typical conditions on Earth so the best thing we can do is change the type of plastic we are using to something that will degrade over a much shorter period of time or can be metabolized by most living things. the good news is we have already invented many variants of plastic that meet this requirement and they have been named bioplastics. why are we still using these plastics that are bad for everyone? it's a simple matter of money and legal [ir]responsibility.
"What the Fair Work Commission did find is that a pattern of unreasonable behaviour, hostile behaviour, belittling behaviour over about a two-year period, which featured a range of different behaviours including berating, excluding and so on, constituted a workplace bullying."
it just so happened that unfriending happened in that period.

As for battery life, TAG Heuer says that you’ll get roughly 30 hours of runtime in typical usage scenarios.

the trouble with socialism is "Sooner or later you run out of Other People's Money"

Programming is about logic, not language.

Don't be silly. Of course GCHQ etc won't officially hack British MP's but I'm sure the NSA and friends can lend a helping hand, and vice versa.
wait... so the British are going to invade our networks?!
THE BRITISH ARE COMING! THE BRITISH ARE COMING! SECOND AMENDMENT TIME, MOTHERFUCKERS!
I guess they designed it for the energy conscious exhibitionist.

if you use closed source software then there is no way of knowing what your handheld computer is actually doing without going to extreme measures.

So, if you go for (say) an hour's hard run, you're burning many hundreds of extra calories.
Umm... only if your name is Barry Allen or Eobard Thawne..
yes, it was interrupted but was this a non-maskable interrupt? ;)
