If a scientific paper that may result in winning a Nobel prize never gets rejected, the criteria for acceptance is too lenient. If a scientific paper that contains rubbish never gets accepted, the criteria for acceptance is too strict.

Why is Office your only reference here? Office also runs on Android. It needs to be more portable. Other references: Visual Studio runs on WPF and many Windows apps are UWP.

Being able to call python code from SQL is super scary!

The vulnerability probably wasn't in the cards. That is, the cheater could not read the card RFIDs directly. It is more likely that he has been able to access, in real-time, the system reading the cards and storing the card values.

It actually sounds kinda like it: "We are inventing a new computational medium where people work together with real objects in the real world, not alone with virtual objects on screens."

Granted the IoT buzzword naming is confusing. Windows 10 IoT Enterprise is simply the good old "Embedded" edition which is fundamentally Windows 10 Enterprise with a price-tag. LTSB means that they have a specific version of Windo

It's not a mess. Windows 10 IoT Enterprise has a price-tag. I'm involved in a low-volume system and it's not a nightmare.

When implementing that protocol, dependency to JSON should be minimized, contained and preferably eliminated.

I don't understand the JSON obsession. JSON as any other file format should be a small detail in any application and require very little plumbing code. In every application, any dependency to JSON should be minimized, contained and pre

It's not going to happen. They are still going to support the embedded Windows use-case that has been supported for decades.

You should use the appropriate edition of Windows 10 for your use case: Windows 10 IoT Enterprise. You can disable all the updates and everything you want.

I hate it how the accepted answer is incorrect and does not teach the fundamental property of regular expressions.

How exactly does the Windows design here prevent writing compilers? The API is stable, it just isn't on the syscall level. Please educate yourself about the Windows architecture.

This is the first time I see the C language referred as Clang. Yes, I know LLVM.

Seems like a simple tool that takes data files and tells about outliers. Why does it have to be used with a web browser? If one runs it locally, it probably should primarily have a command line interface.

There is nothing "Java-family" about Clojure. Merely the run-time.

I fully agree. And it still is like that today in the retro computer scene. Many Amiga utilities and libraries could have been open sourced years ago, which would have benefited the community but the authors rather die with the source code

In the Windows operating system there are multiple components running in kernel-space. One of them is the Kernel. CreateWindowEx does not run in the Kernel, yet it has parts that run in kernel space.
