to "latest and greatest" version of Windows in 2014 either.

MS may as well start selling retail copies of Win 7 again

So good test should catch this goto fail for sure, either functional test or an unit test. Looks like neither are thorough for the library.

Bot more importantly, if static analysis or structural coverage of code was done, both would point out that there is something wrong with the code.

All of these testing strategies should be done for such s critical piece of software.

Well agenda to force tabs on top (next to title bar) upon all users has won... you no longer even have option to move them between address bar and web content. Last few versions had at least configuration option buried in about:config. Maybe not a big deal, but to me it requires more mouse movement from content to tab switching - which is opposite of what good UI design is.

Forcing bad UI to users : how did it work for Microsoft, Mozilla?

If you're mafia, or Apple.

64K tech people have jobs, so they are not as desperate as Apple and Google are to not get their dirty laundry out. And since both companies have more cash than US gov't, obviously this was never going to trial.

Interestingly, Apple posted quarterly financials today ... so how much this has cost them we won't know for 90 days... and even then it will probably be well hidden.

Maybe Heaven is just a better simulation...

so baddies have been warned, they have plenty of time to apply corrective actions. And employees with nothing to hide will be only ones affected by this.

and when we are already there, favorite version of Windows?

Model based development.
You design the model, simulink makes the code.

Both Eclipse and Netbeans do parse the code using gcc parser

Huh? QCreator, Netbeans and Eclipse C/C++ IDEs are fully integrated with GCC, including both debugging and compilation.

You get them made from your own designs in Taiwan, which is not exactly PRC.

How hard it would be to decrypt, knowing that each pin is exactly 4 digits?

I would think if salting was not using, it is just a matter of the time.

Netbeans - although their focus is Java, C/C++ support is great.
