The ‘copyright case of the decade’ is a $9 billion copyright infringement suit Oracle filed against the search giant, Google, nearly 10 years ago. Google is asking for the Supreme Court to hear the case. Will it happen? By Roger Parloff.

What is a bug? Asking that question can send you on an unusual journey, especially when you consider games like Caves of Qud, where a ‘flaw’ could easily be an incredible source of tactical complexity. “it’s possible to acquire a mental mutation that lets you dominate the minds of other creatures,” says Caves of Qud cocreator Jason Grinblat. “what this means is: for a limited duration, you walk around the map as the dominated creature—with access to their skills and powers...

Choosing the right technology for mobile app development might be an overwhelming process. Our team elaborated on the four ways of how you can build and organize your mobile app development.

What if we regarded code not as a high-stakes, sexy affair, but the equivalent of skilled work at a Chrysler plant?

As 2019 begins, make sure you follow the people that really matter in software engineering. We've put together a list to make things easy.

In a recent post, Torvalds shared some thoughts about ARM processors and servers, and people thought he was dismissing ARM's future on servers and the cloud. Here's what he really meant.

WhiteSource review of programming language security errors reveal, which languages have the most security holes. The "winner?" C. But that's only the start of the story.

With all the other Apple news, you may have missed that Apple released the latest version of its Swift programming language: Swift 5.0

From top to bottom, technology is riddled with security errors. At the lowest level, we have hardware errors such as Intel's Meltdown and Spectre bugs. Just above those, we have programming language security holes, and boy, do we have a lot of those! WhiteSource, an open-source security company, recently did a study of open source security vulnerabilities in the seven most widely used languages over the past decade.

Canonical, Ubuntu's parent company, in partnership with Microsoft has made it possible to install Visual Studio Code on any Linux distribution which supports snap.

If you think of creating large and medium-sized scalable mobile or web applications and if you are familiar with JavaScript, learning Angular would be a good solution

These APIs, from niche but useful to just plain fun, should make any software developer smile.

Top techniques that marketplace app owner should use when he makes a choice between refactoring and rewriting web or mobile application technology stack

If we review the latest stackoverflow surveys on developers we find that Rust is the programming language most loved by programmers

Not all coding camps are created equal. Here's what you need to know.

Python 3.8: In addition to a new API for the configuration, the programming language Assignment gets expressions and position-dependent parameters.

Open source infrastructure is a commons, much like our ecological systems. By André Staltz.

Updated on January 17, 2019: The Windows Server 2019 evaluation media is now available in the Evaluation Center. On October 2, 2018, we announced the availability of Windows Server 2019 and Windows Server, version 1809. Later that week, we paused the rollout of these new releases to investigate isolated reports of users missing files after updating to the latest Windows 10 feature update. We take any case of data loss seriously, so we proactively removed all related media from our channels as we started an investigation of the reports and have now fixed all known related issues.

To translate one language into another, find the linear transformation that maps one to the other. Simple, say a team of Google engineers.

Do you remember the first time you saw Rails' ActiveSupport library? I do: it totally blew my mind. The only dynamic language I had used up to that point was Perl, and it had a similarly mind-blowing effect on my young self. I thought that... | Steve Klabnik | “The most violent element in society is ignorance.” - Emma Goldman

Chris Granger is a computer programmer who thinks programming kinda sucks. It’s too complicated and too esoteric and too sprawling. But he hopes that his latest invention can change all that. Built alongside friend and colleague Robert Attorri, his creation is called Light Table, and he believes it can not only improve programming for seasoned engineers like himself, but put the power of coding into the hands of so many others. “We consider programming a modern-day superpower.

Perhaps you encountered these in math classes or an elective in your CompSci degree, and think they’re just “theoretically” interesting. (Or not.) But, Tom Henderson argues, these have relevance to the real world of programming too.

ChartJS provides a set of visualization widgets that allow you to transform data to its most appropriate, concise, and readable visual representation.

Open source HTML5 charts using the canvas tag. Chart.js is an easy way to include animated graphs on your website.

As software developers we put a lot of focus on simplicity. And rightly so, because making code readable and understandable keeps it from becoming a maintenance nightmare. Simplicity is often confused though with how many lines of code there are.

For a limited time, GameMaker Studio Standard edition is available for free. Valued at $49.99, GameMaker Studio Standard is a significant improvement upon the free version of the software which imposes harsh restrictions on the resources that developers can make use of.

Seriously Apple? Seriously? GOTOs? In your Secure-Socket Layer implementation? What were they thinking? Apple, Apple! When Ed Post wrote in 1983 that Real Programmers aren’t afraid to use GOTOs he was kidding! No one should ever use go-to statements in any program.

There are many ways to measure whether an open source project is gaining meaningful traction. Here how’s OpenDaylight’s doing it.
