Give Poor People Cash

Source: www.theatlantic.com - Sunday, September 27, 2015
Before he was a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination, Ben Carson appeared on The View to talk welfare reform—an issue that continues to be debated in GOP circles on and off the campaign trail . He argued that the social safety net could breed dependency among America’s poor. “You rob someone of their incentive to go out there and improve themselves,” he said , and that’s “not doing them any favors.” What would be more empowering, Carson suggested, “is to use our intellect and our resources to give those people a way up and out.” That’s surely correct. And the good news is that growing evidence around the world suggests there’s a simple design for a safety-net system that may not create dependency—and may help lift people up and out of poverty: Give poor people cash without conditions attached, and it turns out they use it to buy goods and services that improve their lives and increase their future earnings potential. Related Story How Many People in the World Are Actually Poor? It’s a system that policymakers in many countries are loathe to try. They worry, in part, that recipients will waste the money—spending it on, say, flat-screen televisions, cigarettes, and alcohol rather than nutritious food or school supplies. For example, the United States has a very (very) small cash-transfer program called Temporary Assistance for Needy Families , which provides a maximum of $497 per month to a family of four. E

Brandon Marshall calls his dumb lateral the ‘worst play in NFL history'

Source: www.sbnation.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
THIS IS A BAD IDEA Brandon Marshall recorded a rare first down for the Jets against the Eagles, but as he was getting tackled, he did something you don't really see often: He tried to lateral the ball, pitching it off Connor Barwin's face, after which Eagles LB Jordan Hicks picked it up. There was a brief debate as to whether Marshall was down, but, nope. He was clearly throwing the ball before his knees hit the ground. There's really no good reason Marshall should've done this. Typically, a wide receiver going to the ground should only ever throw a lateral if it's the last play of the game and you're losing, and the game will end if they get tackled but will continue. After the game, Marshall confirmed he was intentionally trying to lateral. He also confirmed he knows that was not a very good idea. "Wrong time to gamble,"  Marshall said. "I was pressing, trying to make a play. Probably the worst play in NFL history." I personally love the concept of players lateraling more frequently than they currently do, but this was not the time to try. If you are going to try a random-ass lateral, there are several things you should do. Make sure you're in full control of your body. Marshall wasn't -- he was getting thrown to the ground, which made his throw wild. Make sure there's a player expecting your throw. Jeff Cumberland is there, but, well, he's not expecting a lateral. This ball probably would've just blown by him, since he's stand ...

Steve Smith will never stop insulting the defensive backs he just owned

Source: www.sbnation.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
Steve Smith helpfully details which members of the Bengals defense are trash. Steve Smith is 36 years old, and he's currently in his 15th NFL season. This age is not stopping him from owning NFL defensive backs: Against the Bengals today, he had 186 yards receiving and two touchdowns,  including this absurd fourth-down play that could've been a gain of 5 and ended up a gain of 50. Age is also certainly not stopping him from talking trash about defensive backs before and after he owns them. This is what he had to say after his go-ahead touchdown with four minutes left. If you need a translation: 27? TRASH. 24? TRASH! 43? FUCKBOY. 20? (something bad, presumably) He's referring to the entire Cincinnati starting secondary: "27" (trash) is starting cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick, "24" (also trash) is starting corner Adam "Pacman" Jones, "43" (the one who is not trash, but is, in fact, a fuckboy) is starting strong safety George Iloka, and "20" (whatever bad thing he says after that) is starting free safety Reggie Nelson. We'd tell Steve Smith to "never change," but let's be honest, he doesn't need us to tell him that. He's never going to change. This is sadly Steve Smith's last NFL season. It doesn't need to be: He could continue saying vicious things about NFL defenders and then backing up his words probably well into his mid-60s.

Source: www.mmo-champion.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
When Legion was first announced, already I was scratching my head trying to figure out why they would announce the expac at GamesCom, instead of their own personal HUGE convention. I thought it might just be the name of the expac, and maybe a few little tidbits of info. But we actually got a full on reveal, similar to what you'd normally see at Blizzcon. Then just recently they revealed the release date and the cinematic for Legacy of the Void. I feel like they could have announced the release date, and then teased that we would get the cinematic at Blizzcon. That cinematic would have cause major hype at the opening ceremony. Blizzcon was only 2 months away, surely they could have gotten away with this. As of Tuesday, they also announced two more Overwatch characters, again, only two months until Blizzcon, this could have waited, unless they have more characters, which for some reason I doubt they'll announce more by that time, but maybe. The only things I feel like we can look forward to is more info about Legion, but not a reveal like they did at GamesCom. We might get a beta announcement for that too. Starcraft, honestly, I can't see anything being announced for that. Overwatch, we'll probably get the beta announce if we're lucky, and POSSIBLY one more character, again if we're lucky.

Seahawks burn Bears with WHO'S GOT IT punt return trickeration

Source: www.sbnation.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
This is now the most popular play in Football. Last year the Seahawks were baffled by a piece of trickeration on a Rams punt return , where one player feigned as if he was about to catch it while Stedman Bailey actually caught the ball on the other side of the field, leading to a 90-yard punt return TD. The Hawks must have liked what they saw: They ran it today against the Bears: That's Ricardo Lockette pretending to catch the ball -- and really committing to the gig by falling over -- and Richard Sherman actually coming down with it, eventually being tracked down by Bears punter Pat O'Donnell. The Bears had also tried to pull this off in 2011 when they had Devin Hester and Johnny Knox,  but it got called back due to a holding call . This is actually the second time we've seen this incredibly difficult-to-pull-off play in two days:  Saturday night, Utah ran this play in their utterly dominant victory over Oregon, leading to a 69-yard TD for Boobie Hobbs : It's a tough play to pull off. For starters, the punt has to be far enough on one side of the field for the fake to work. Then the punt returner and faux punt returner have to correctly get to opposite sides of the field. Finally, the fake has to be convincing since the entire defense has to follow the right guy for it to work. That's a lot of things!

Chris Brown to be refused visa to tour Australia

Source: iloveblackpeople.net --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
American R&B singer Chris Brown is set to be blocked from touring Australia, Immigration Minister Peter Dutton said Sunday, as the government sets up its efforts to tackle domestic violence. Brown, who was convicted of assaulting his then-partner pop star Rihanna in 2009, was issued with a “notice of intention to consider refusal”, just a day before tickets to his “One Hell of a Nite” tour were due to go on sale. “People to whom these notices are issued have 28 days to present material as to why they should be given a visa to enter Australia,” Dutton said in a statement. “Decisions on whether a visa will or will not be issued are made after that timeframe and consideration of the material presented to the Department of Immigration and Border Protection.” The decision to ban the Grammy award-winning performer was mooted by recently appointed Minister of Women Michaelia Cash on Friday as new Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull unveiled a Aus$100 million (US$70 million) package to address violence in families. Cash, the former assistant immigration minister, also said she previously revoked the visa of a “very, very, very wealthy” boxing star, understood to be Floyd Mayweather, who has multiple convictions for assaulting women. Brown is due to perform in the Australian cities of Perth, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane from December 9-16.

Iraq Signs Deal to Share Intel on Islamic State With Russia, Syria, and Iran

Source: pjmedia.com - Sunday, September 27, 2015
The Iraqi military announced that it would begin to share “security and intelligence” information on ISIS with Iran, Russia, and Syria, a move that further muddies the waters in the war against Islamic State. Iran and Russia have already agreed to fight “terrorists” in Syria, which could mean that Russia’s commitment to President Assad might include fighting the non-ISIS rebels supported by the US. As far as Assad is concerned, anyone who opposes him is a terrorist. But the de facto alliance of Russia, Syria, Iran, and Iraq will strengthen the hand of President Assad as the US is being shunted to the side in the fight against ISIS. ABC News: A statement issued by the Joint Operations Command said the countries will “help and cooperate in collecting information about the terrorist Daesh group,” using the Arabic acronym for the IS group. Iraq has long had close ties with neighboring Iran and has coordinated with Tehran in fighting IS — which controls about a third of Iraq and Syria in a self-declared caliphate. Iran has sent military advisers to Iraq and worked closely with Shiite militias battling the IS group. A U.S.-led coalition has meanwhile been conducting airstrikes against IS in Iraq and Syria as well as training and advising Iraqi forces, but U.S. officials insist they are not coordinating their efforts with Iran. The U.S. also refuses to cooperate with Syrian President Bashar Assad, who Washington has insisted should step

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi broke down in tears Sunday discussing the role his mother played in allowing for his success with Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg. “When we were young, what we did to get by: we went to our neighbors’ houses nearby to clean dishes, fill water, do hard chores. So you can imagine what a mother had to do to raise her children. What she must have gone through,” said Modi in a broken voice. “That’s not just the case with Narendra Modi. In India there are hundreds of thousands of women and mothers who sacrificed their entire lives for their children.” In his answer, Modi also praised Zuckerberg’s parents for raising a child who changed the world and said he was confident that mothers would “give us strength to remain on the right path.” Modi’s remarks come during a question and answer session with Zuckerberg at Facebook headquarters in Silicon Valley. Much of the session focused on the Internet and social media, which Modi has utilized to mobilize his supporters. Modi said he hoped to build a optical fiber network to provide villages across his country with internet. Modi’s visit to the United States included a trip down the West Coast. On Monday, he is scheduled to attend meetings in New York City, during the United Nations General Assembly.

The iPad Pro's biggest challenge: finding its place between tablet and laptop

Source: www.engadget.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
This article originally appeared on Fast Company and is reprinted with permission. By Jared Newman When Apple launched the iPad in 2010, the biggest question was whether it could carve out a space between smartphones and laptops. For a while, the answer was yes, as the iPad became Apple's fastest-growing product. But since then, smartphones have become larger and more powerful, while laptops have become thinner, lighter, and more battery-efficient. iPad sales have felt the squeeze , declining for two straight years even as Apple's iPhone and Mac sales flourish. Rather than give up, Apple is sharpening its focus with the iPad Pro, which is larger and more powerful than its predecessors, with an optional keyboard and drawing stylus. The question now is whether this new space—somewhere between smaller media consumption tablets and full-blown laptops—can help revitalize the iPad as a whole. Put another way, can the iPad become even more like a laptop without losing its sense of purpose? Making Trade-offs During Apple's September event , CEO Tim Cook offered a refresher on what the iPad is supposed to accomplish. "iPad is the clearest expression of our vision of the future of personal computing, a simple multi-touch piece of glass that instantly transforms into virtually anything you want it to be," he said. What Cook didn't readily acknowledge is that the iPad Pro appears to compromise this vision, with both its hardware and software ...

Microsoft just squashed a bug that allowed Windows 10 Mobile devices to run Android

Source: wmpoweruser.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
Microsoft Windows 10 mobile update to Windows Phone brings with it a lot of new features to the OS, including a very controversial feature – the Android subsystem that allows Windows Mobile to run Android apps. While a few people theorized that this could lead to security issues with Windows Phone which is as secure as Android is insecure Microsoft’s strict restrictions on the use of system APIs helped squash those fears. Today, WMPU learned from certain individuals that it is possible to install and run Android on a Windows 10 mobile device using a bug in the Android runtime. Here’s a video showing off Android 5.0.2 running on the Lumia 830: We should note that while it is technically possible to run Android on a Windows Phone using this exploit, you would need several proprietary tools that only Microsoft has so your average hacker on the street cannot do this. The second caveat is that Microsoft is working on squashing this bug in future builds of Windows 10 mobile and it is most likely not even possible on the current preview builds. Gallery Of course, even if it were left as is, it would still be impossible to exploit as the tools to do so are nestled deep inside Redmond. Nevertheless, have a look at the video below and tell us what you think in the comments below. ...

Let's Stop Blaming Bad Teachers, And Start Blaming Lousy Parents

Source: blogs.forbes.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
The Los Angeles Dodgers selected Highland Park High School pitcher Clayton Kershaw with the 7 th pick in the 2006 Major League Baseball draft. It turns out to have been a very wise decision. Kershaw has since won 3 Cy Young awards, an MVP in 2014, plus he’s regularly had his team competitive. So long as Kershaw remains healthy, the Dodgers will annually be in any discussion of the League’s championship contenders. What’s less well known is what Kershaw did right after being drafted. Awarded with a $2.3 million signing bonus, Molly Knight reports in her 2015 book The Best Team Money Can Buy that Kershaw almost immediately wrote “a half dozen checks to the people his mother had to borrow from so they could afford to stay in the Highland Park school district.” Highland Park is one of the richest locales Dallas, and as Kershaw told Knight, his mother “took on some pretty serious debt” so that he could attend public school there. Since owning a house in Highland Park was a non-starter for someone of her limited means, Kershaw’s mother rented so that her son could attend the district’s well-regarded schools. Kershaw’s story is first a reminder that contrary to the popular conservative/libertarian narrative about kids “stuck in failing schools,” there is choice. Sometimes parents make substantial economic sacrifices meant to improve educational choice and opportunity for their children. What this also tells us is that opposite popular p ...

In New Ad Campaign, Former Baseball Star Spreads Anti-Trans Myths

Source: thinkprogress.org --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
Lance Berkman, former Houston Astros star and Texas native, has waded into the fight for LGBT protections, sharing his views in a new ad campaign this week. At the center of Berkman’s concern is Houston’s Equal Rights Ordinance (HERO), a nondiscrimination law similar to those on the books in cities across the country and the subject of an intense debate leading up to the November 3 vote. Berkman is focused on the part of the law that applies to public accommodations like bathrooms; he echoes the anti-trans rhetoric used by HERO’s opponents as he urges Houston residents to vote against the measure, invoking his four daughters and his desire to protect them from “troubled men” going into women’s restrooms. “Proposition 1, the bathroom ordinance, would allow troubled men to enter women’s public bathrooms, showers, and locker rooms. This would violate their privacy and put them in harm’s way,” he says in the ad, produced by Campaign for Houston. In an accompanying video Berkman adds, “It’s crazy and it kinda makes me want to say… Wake up, America! That’s what I want to scream at people because I mean, what are we doing here? We have the potential for men going into a women’s bathroom. The very few people that this could even be slanted as discriminating against, is it worth putting the majority of the population at risk?” Originally passed in 2014, HERO protects Houston residents and visitors against discrimination based on a wide ra ...

Microsoft just squashed a bug that allowed Windows 10 Mobile devices to run Android

Source: wmpoweruser.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
Microsoft Windows 10 mobile update to Windows Phone brings with it a lot of new features to the OS, including a very controversial feature – the Android subsystem that allows Windows Mobile to run Android apps. While a few people theorized that this could lead to security issues with Windows Phone which is as secure as Android is insecure Microsoft’s strict restrictions on the use of system APIs helped squash those fears. Today, WMPU learned from certain individuals that it is possible to install and run Android on a Windows 10 mobile device using a bug in the Android runtime. Here’s a video showing off Android 5.0.2 running on the Lumia 830: We should note that while it is technically possible to run Android on a Windows Phone using this exploit, you would need several proprietary tools that only Microsoft has so your average hacker on the street cannot do this. The second caveat is that Microsoft is working on squashing this bug in future builds of Windows 10 mobile and it is most likely not even possible on the current preview builds. Gallery Of course, even if it were left as is, it would still be impossible to exploit as the tools to do so are nestled deep inside Redmond. Nevertheless, have a look at the video below and tell us what you think in the comments below. ...

Artist Transforms Sneakers Into Amazing Works Of Art

Source: all-that-is-interesting.com --- Sunday, September 27, 2015
Tasty Crepes 2014 Source: FILFURY For artist Phil Robson, aka FILFURY, obsession shapes life–and art. In Robson’s case, those creativity-informing obsessions include the 90s, Basketball and fashion. Such obsessions translate quite well into reality, as Robson has collaborated with Nike, Adidas and Reebok–among a host of other big names. Also inspired by the likes of Stan Lee, Ron English, Neville Brody and Ewen Spencer, Robson describes his work as “a battle of pop culture vs nature,” and enjoys utilizing contemporary textures to repurpose form and painting. One such texture is–you guessed it–the shoe. Robson makes himself at home cutting and arranging soles, laces, tongues until they no longer resemble shoes but insects, guns, and even skulls. Robson doesn’t confine creativity to the sneaker, though; he also utilizes stereo parts, watches and fashion items in his work. Regardless of the materials involved, each work of transformation art emanates punk rock. If you want to score some of Robson’s work, be sure to visit his site .

The Guardian view on housing policy: Britain must face home truths | Editorial

Source: www.theguardian.com - Sunday, September 27, 2015
Thatcher-era political dogmas are getting in the way of Britain’s need for more housebuilding and more social housing It is not the duty of government to provide every citizen with the perfect home , but it is a symptom of failure when tens of thousands are unhoused. New government figures show 13,850 additional households officially entered that category in England between April and June this year – a 5% increase on the previous quarter. This conforms to an upward trend since 2010 in the full range of housing deprivation. In London, where the problem is most acute, charities have reportedly given out tickets for night buses as a means to keep people warm in the absence of hostel beds. The facts alone ought to prick ministers’ consciences. They might also dwell on past damage this issue has inflicted on Conservative reputations. In the mid-1990s homelessness was an emblematic cause , galvanising public perceptions of Tories as devotees of a callous, sink-or-swim attitude to material disadvantage. Mindful of that enduring taint, David Cameron wants to cast his party as an engine for social advancement. In housing policy, the flagship measure for this purpose is the extension of a “right to buy” to properties let by housing associations. This is meant as a reanimation of the spirit of 1980s Thatcherism: the transformation of public-housing tenants into private home-owners, mobilising to great political effect the aspirational ethos

Ben Carson Is Okay With Kanye West As President But He Can't 'Take That Chance' With A Muslim

Source: crooksandliars.com - Sunday, September 27, 2015
Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson argued over the weekend that it was too dangerous to "take that chance" on electing a Muslim president, but he said that musician Kanye West deserved the opportunity. During a Sunday interview on ABC, Carson accused host Martha Raddatz of taking his recent comments about not supporting a Muslim president out of context. "I'm reading transcript, Dr. Carson," she told the candidate. "And that's exactly what you said." Carson explained that he would only oppose a Muslim president if they did not "subjugate their religious beliefs to our Constitution." "What we should be talking about is Islam and the tenets of Islam," Carson opined. "What I would like somebody to show me is an approved Islamic text that opposes Sharia. If you can show me that, I will begin to alter my thinking on this." "But right now, when you have something that's against the rights of women, against the rights of gays, subjugates other religions and a host of things that are not compatible with our Constitution, why, in fact, would you take that chance?" he asked. For her last question, Raddatz pointed out that Kanye West had recently called Carson "brilliant." Carson explained that he had spoken to West, and he had been impressed with his business skills. "I talked to him about himself and maybe some other people in the pop culture doing some music that might be uplifting, that might give young women a sense of their

James Harden Threw Out Another First Pitch, But This Time Without Jorts

Source: uproxx.com --- Thursday, September 24, 2015
Getty Image In important NBA offseason news, Houston Rockets guard James Harden is still throwing out first pitches at Baseball games. He is not, however, wearing jorts while doing so. (The question is, though, was he wearing Nike or Adidas ?) You see, Harden threw out a first pitch last June while wearing jorts . As someone who has been photographed while wearing jorts, I can attest this is bad if someone were ever to create a time capsule. And because the Internet is basically an electronic time capsule, I can personally attest this is bad for Harden. Anyway, Harden threw out another first pitch for the Houston Astros on Wednesday and, would you look at that, it looked like it might’ve been a strike: The Beard on the mound throwing out the first pitch at today's Astros game. https://t.co/jgWCLxBFDt — Houston Rockets (@HoustonRockets) September 23, 2015 Actually, it wasn’t. “To be honest, it was a ball,” Harden told the Houston Chronicle . “It felt good. That’s all that matters. I didn’t hit anybody. I didn’t hit a cameraman. I’m happy about that.” Sounds like Harden’s just happy he didn’t drill the cameraman like Michael Carter-Williams at a Brewers game earlier this summer.

China manages capitalism for its own gain. This explains how.

Source: http://ift.tt/g5lp9S - Thursday, September 24, 2015
In this 2014, file photo, President Obama toasts with Chinese President Xi Jinping at a lunch banquet in the Great Hall of the People in Beijing. Xi is in the U.S. this week. (Greg Baker, File-Pool/Associated Press) Chinese President Xi Jinping is visiting the United States this week, meeting with American CEOs, dining at the White House, and speaking at the 70 th United Nations General Assembly. But there’s a shadow over the visit. Recently, Beijing has been acting against its foreign companies. It has pursued anti-trust actions and intellectual property enforcement in ways that are biased toward Chinese industry. And it has undertaken sweeping measures to prop up the country’s stock market, the ups and downs of which have reverberated globally . Scholars and media analysts alike link these moves to Xi’s quest to consolidate his own political power and safeguard the survival of the Chinese Communist Party . They also attribute these developments to growing nationalism and protectionism. But such actions are nothing new: State intervention in business activities and the stock market are Chinese business as usual. They date back to Deng Xiaoping’s reopening of the country to foreign investment in 1992, a few years after the Tiananmen Square Incident. My recent article shows that Chinese-style capitalism involves two primary components. First is market coordination, which combines competition with regulation to achieve industrial m

John Krahn weighs-in at more than 440-pounds and stands 7-feet tall, which would make him the biggest player in the NFL. And according to USA Today High School Sports, Krahn, who plays for ML King High School in Riverside, California, looks to have a bright future in football: And while Krahn has always loved football, he had to wait to get started playing competitively because the youth leagues in his area all had weight restrictions. Then, when he finally did get to play in an unrestricted junior high league, he broke a teammate’s arm in his first practice when he fell on him. According to MaxPreps.com, Krahn played in USA Football’s National Development Games in Los Angeles last summer, where a number of college coaches expressed interest, provided he lose some weight: “We had Division I coaches on site that said they’d consider offering him if he lost some weight,” USA Football’s Jimmy Thomas told MaxPreps. “They think he could be a force at a lighter weight.” ...

Apple lists top 25 apps hit by malware in first major attack

Source: www.oann.com --- Thursday, September 24, 2015
September 24, 2015 By Anya George Tharakan (Reuters) – Apple Inc said the WeChat messaging app and car-hailing app DiDi Taxi were among the 25 most popular apps that were found to be infected with malicious software, the first-ever large-scale attack on its App Store. The company had not previously disclosed which apps had been affected, although many had been identified by third parties. Apple said on Sunday it was cleaning up its App Store after several cybersecurity firms reported that unknown hackers had embedded a malware, dubbed XcodeGhost, in hundreds, possibly thousands, of Chinese apps. “We have no information to suggest that the malware has been used to do anything malicious,” Apple said in its XcodeGhost Q&A Web page on Thursday. Other infected apps include Baidu Inc’s Baidu Music app, a music app from Internet portal NetEase Inc and the 58 Classified-Job, Used Cars, Rent app. Tencent Holdings Ltd owns WeChat. This is the first reported case of large number of malicious software programs making their way past Apple’s stringent app review process. Cyber security firm FireEye Inc said earlier this week that the security breach was much bigger than previously thought, affecting more than 4,000 apps on the App Store, compared with the earlier estimate of 39. Prior to this attack, a total of just five malicious apps had ever been found in the App Store, according to cyber security firm Palo Alto Networks Inc. Apple said on ...

Minecraft for Windows 10 coming to Oculus Rift VR headsets next spring

Source: www.winbeta.org --- Thursday, September 24, 2015
Facebook’s Oculus VR team recently announced at its Connect 2 developer conference, that Microsoft-owned Minecraft will be coming to the Oculus Rift virtual reality platform early next year. Currently the tantalizing new generation of Minecraft comes specifically in the form of a Windows Store app for Windows 10. While little in the way of app logistics have been revealed about the forthcoming virtual reality game, Oculus VR founder Palmer Lucky also announced it would be available from the company’s Oculus Store. Unless the company decided to package the game for two specific platforms, it’s highly likely the game would not come in the form of a Windows 10 Universal app. Instead, the app could become a desktop app distributed through the store With regards to Minecraft, Microsoft has put itself in an interesting position, as it has now acquired the rights to what exploded as a cross platform game. While the company’s dramatic shift to seamless cross-platform support is readily evident in its productivity offerings, Microsoft’s gaming platform has historically been a different matter entirely. Despite Valve’s efforts to strengthen gaming on Linux, Windows remains the dominant PC gaming platform, and Microsoft has, from a technical perspective, fought to keep it that way.

From its early announcements, many have questioned whether Microsoft could target small embedded devices that don’t have screens with Windows 10. During /Build// 2015, Microsoft made an impressive albeit brief argument that it could. However, since Microsoft’s developer conference in April, the news about the company’s development of Windows 10 for IoT has sputtered out in dribs and drabs. Here we are in late September, and Microsoft is finally offering a clear picture of what’s to come for Windows 10 for IoT .

Invite is an iOS-first app that purports to simplify the process of inviting others to meetings. The process is straight-forward.

Attendees will get an email (or a notification if they have Invite installed) and can respond with times that work for them. Once all invitees have responded, the organizer can pick the time that works for the largest group of potential attendees and set the meeting time. After the meeting time is set, it is added to respondents' calendars. Microsoft says Invite will work best for those with Office 365 subscriptions, but it also functions with Gmail, Outlook, and Yahoo mail.

DirectX 12 is now out in the wild as a part of Windows 10 and the updated driver model WDDM 2.0 that comes with it. Unlike DX11, there are no major gaming titles at launch - we are now waiting for games to take advantage of DX12 and what difference it will make for the game playing experience. One of the main focal points of DX12 is draw calls , leveraging multiple processor cores to dispatch GPU workloads, rather than the previous model of a single core doing most of the work. DX12 brings about a lot of changes with the goal of increasing performance, offering an even more immersive experience, but it does shift some of the support requirements to the engine developers such as SLI or Crossfire. We tackled two synthetic tests earlier this year, Star Swarm and 3DMark , but due to timing and other industry events, we are waiting for a better time to test the Ashes of the Singularity benchmark as the game nears completion.
