Discovered a great, inexpensive Chinese restaurant aptly named “So Tasty”. Just behind Crossroads Mall. The vegetables with garlic are great. Best fried chicken on the east side. Probably the best egg tarts we’ve ever had. Highly recommended. https://t.co/3NgFQ2NOEf

Bringing this country back together depends not only on safeguarding against tech’s potential as a weapon, but on capitalizing on its phenomenal potential as a tool. @BradSmi on @TheDailyShow. #ToolsandWeapons

A great portion of us will need #assistivetech at some point in our lives. And while #Windows 10 introduced countless accessibility features, people often don’t know these functions are there. The future, @hminto tells us, depends on awareness. @guardian

30 years ago, 2 boys invented a writing system for a centuries-old language without an alphabet. Through their perseverance, and assistance from #Microsoft, they got it encoded onto computers – helping an ancient people write its story. Inspiring stuff.

So exciting to get a first look at @minecraftearth. Using #Azure’s new spatial anchors, the game’s inviting players to the intermediary space where lines between the digital world and meatspace are blurred.

“Whether it’s our pursuit of quantum computing or it’s a pursuit of A.G.I., I think you need these high-ambition North Stars.” Inspiring that we keep setting our sights on the ‘impossible.' @nytimes' piece on @Microsoft’s $1 billion investment in @OpenAI

@Microsoft could have been a classic victim of “creative disruption,” writes @TheEconomist. Instead, it underwent an extraordinary change in corporate culture. Read how Microsoft’s comeback has it once more vying for the title of most valuable company

Devices like #HoloLens are revolutionising the workplace – putting high-tech tools into the hands of frontline workers to assist in training, scheduling and regular communications. Great article from the @nytimes explains how @Microsoft is leading the way

When it comes to being a socially responsible company, we can be both well-meaning and simultaneously self-serving. A great interview with #Microsoft's @BradSmi on @FortuneMagazine
