Microsoft is releasing a new test build of Windows 10 today, just a week after the company announced some new features for the OS. The biggest addition is running native Bash on Ubuntu in Windows 10, and testers will have access to test this feature today. Windows 10 build 14316 includes bash, and it can be installed by enabling a developer mode.

Alongside Bash, Microsoft is also enabling some new Cortana cross-device features with this latest test version of Windows 10. These will work on Windows 10 Mobile devices and Android phones, allowing you to receive phone low battery notifications on a PC. Microsoft is also enabling find my phone through Cortana on Android, and Cortana will ring a phone to locate it. Even map directions can be shared from PC directly to phones, but full notifications from phone to PC isn't present just yet.

Microsoft is also releasing new Edge browser extensions today. We're still waiting on AdBlock, but two new additions include OneNote Clipper and Pin It Button for Pinterest. If you're interested in the new Skype app for Windows 10, this is also included with this latest build for PCs.

Windows 10 is also getting some UI tweaks with this new build. Emojii has been updated to align with Microsoft's Design Language and the Unicode standard along with skin tones. If you're a fan of the dark them in Windows 10 then Microsoft is including a toggle to allow it to extend to apps like calculator, Store, Alarms, and settings. The new dark mode won't apply to all apps, as developers can set their own themes. Other UI changes include a new update progress experience, and the ability to pin a window so it's available on every virtual desktop.

If you're a Windows Insider the latest build is available through Windows Update right now. Microsoft plans to roll out these features and more as part of the Anniversary Update to Windows 10 this year.

The Edge office building in Amsterdam prides itself on good coffee, lots of natural light - no desk is far from a window - and a gym that allows you not just to get fit but also to contribute to the energy supply of the office.
It also flushes its toilets with rainwater, has a robot security guard that will challenge you if you wander around at night and a whole range of clever technology to make the building sustainable.
The developers behind it, Dutch firm OVG, liked it so much that they moved in when it was finished.
So is the office that has already been dubbed the world's greenest, really as smart as it seems?
The building, whose main tenant is consultancy firm Deloitte and was designed by London-based architects PLP Architecture, boasts "smart" ceilings embedded with 28,000 sensors, which measure temperature, light, motion and humidity. The lighting, designed by Phillips, is also smart - each one of the LED panels is ultra-efficient and requires only a tiny amount of electricity.

Workers can control the temperature, lighting and blinds via a series of apps on their smartphones and work is ongoing to unify them.

Users select the temperature they want from a sliding gauge on their phone and it will in turn adjust the valves in the pipes above their head. Each valve controls the temperature of around four desks so they do have to hope that the colleague sitting next to them is also happy with the change.
Facilities manager Wybe Van der Mey tells me, with some degree of pride, that in the first year of opening he only received a handful of complaints about the heating.
"In a traditional building that would be our headache number one," he said.
Workers can also use one of the apps to book meeting rooms, open lockers and check in to their desks.
When The Edge first opened its doors in September 2014, around 20% of the workers checked themselves in via the app. That quickly fell to 10% and is now at around 1%, according to Mr Van der Mey.
"We hoped everyone would check in to their desks daily but they haven't done that."
Each floor of Deloitte's office is laid out exactly the same, making it the ultimate hot-desking environment. It should in theory mean the firm can allocate desks - if people used the app.
"The dream of a facilities manager is to tell people where to go based on available space. Technically it is possible, but behaviourally it is not. People want to go to the same place every day and sit with their peers."
Neither is the app-based system to book meeting rooms running entirely smoothly. Many don't use it, leading to double-booked rooms, while others book rooms that they never intend to use because it gains them an extra parking space.
It is unclear how many use the stickers with QR codes which adorn all the meeting rooms, allowing users to connect to everything inside the room via their smartphone - including powering up the 4K screens to show their own presentations, controlling the lighting and heating and even lowering the blinds to stop their audience from daydreaming out of the window.
There is no doubting The Edge's green credentials however.
In December 2014 it received the highest ever BREEAM (Building Research Establishment Environmental Assessment Methodology) which has become the de facto test for sustainability in buildings.
It got an outstanding rating with the highest-ever score of 98.36%, making it a star pupil in a business world that is increasingly being pushed to go green.
It means that Mr Van der Mey has become used to a new job role - as tour guide. He has hosted architects, developers and news outlets and rejected a request from the Amsterdam tourist board to show a group of Chinese tourists around the building.
They come to see a range of features, including an innovative approach to solar power.
When it became clear to developer OVG that covering the roof with solar panels was not going to be enough to provide 100% of The Edge's electricity it turned to its neighbours - the VU University of Amsterdam and the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences - to install a further 4,100 sq m (44,100 sq ft) of solar panels on their rooftops in return for the free use of any spare electricity.
The slanted atrium also has a job to do - draining off rainwater to be collected in troughs and reused for cleaning and flushing the toilets.
The building is doing its bit to encourage its workers to go greener. There is a huge space for bikes and a whole wall dedicated to electric car charging points in the underground car park.
The building is heated and cooled via an aquifer thermal energy storage system. Hot water is stored in wells in the ground during summer to help heat the building in winter and cold water in the same way in the winter to cool the building in the warmer months.
There are no radiators in the building - all the heating is provided by cables that run through the ceilings. One carries data and the other water to provide an ambient temperature across the whole structure.
Both Deloitte, the building's main tenant, and OVG, the developer, are open about the fact that The Edge is an experimental project and that not everything has worked.
One of its biggest challenges is making sense of the mountains of data generated by the sensors.
Maintaining the smartness of The Edge has, Mr Van der Mey jokes, turned his hair grey.
"It is challenging to cope with all the data and we are still learning how to read it," he told the BBC.
For the moment the answer lies in data dashboards, which both the facilities teams and workers can access.
It displays a variety of real-time data points - including the number of workers in the building at any given time, how many visitors, energy consumption and temperature.
It also has some more fun data sets, such as a pie-chart showing how much coffee, and what type, is being consumed in the building at any given time.
It became apparent from the data that lattes and cappuccinos were by far the most popular choice, meaning milk was frequently running out so Deloitte asked the manufacturer to make a new bespoke model with a larger compartment for milk - a real world example of how access to data can improve working lives.
Every coffee machine is also connected to the internet, meaning facilities staff can see which ones are getting low and refill them before someone finds it empty.
The towel rails in the bathrooms are similarly connected.
The hours that cleaners work have also been changed as a result of the data and Mr Van der Mey is keen for this to happen more often.
"We want to predict how things will happen in the building - that will be the really smart thing," he said.

Twenty-seven-year-old Ransom Linus Martin, four months into her first pregnancy, has come to the Land of Promise church near the city of Calabar for prayers, but it is also where she will be giving birth.
She is not alone in her choice, but campaigners are trying to end the practice which is widespread in southern Nigeria.
The stocky woman, wearing a knee-length lace dress and a deep yellow beret is blunt about why she, and other women, opt for a church birth with a traditional birth attendant rather than going to a maternity clinic.
"They do fasting and prayer here, and if you are pregnant you need to go to the place where there is God and there is daily fasting and prayers.
"At the hospital there is nothing like prayer. They don't pray. They only give you injections. But as you pray at the church, you get closer to God.
"On the day of your delivery, God will help you and you will deliver successfully."
Ms Martin believes that the church and God will offer more protection than modern health facilities. Unfortunately, there are reports of many women dying while giving birth in the facilities provided by a church.


Dr Linda Ayade - "I have first-hand experience of pregnant women being rushed in at critical times when they can no longer be helped."


Dr Linda Ayade, the state governor's wife, is so concerned about the possible dangers of a church birth that she is campaigning to ban the practice, and is encouraging women to instead go to health centres to deliver their babies.
She has been going from village to village across the state, trying to persuade expectant mothers.
At a meeting in Uwanse village she speaks with passion in a local language, Efik, and the women are attentive, excited at being visited by a high-ranking official.
Later, she explains her motivation: "I have worked in hospitals in Nigeria and I have first-hand experience of pregnant women being rushed in at critical times when they can no longer be helped.
"Some are even confirmed dead on arrival, and it happens quite often. I have taken it as an obligation to save lives and reduce incidences of maternal mortality relating to child birth and delivery, knowing what it means for a mother to die and leaving children behind."
It may, however, take some time before everyone is won over, as child delivery is associated with deep-seated traditional beliefs.


Dr Ayade's status does attract a crowd to her meetings, but prayer sessions are also packed out.
At the Land of Promise church, a congregation of mostly pregnant women sings and prays, asking God to intervene and deliver their babies at the appointed time.
Attached to the prayer hall is the room where the women will give birth - it is small and dirty and lit by a paraffin lamp.
Sister Indoreyin Sambhor is the pastor and the church's traditional birth attendant. The short, middle-aged woman says delivering babies is a tradition in her family handed down from mother to daughter.
"This is the work that God gave me to do. From my youth, I helped my mother to deliver babies. God has been helping me, and God will not allow anything dangerous or evil to happen.
"I pray with the mothers and my followers can testify about my skills... Every pregnant woman that has come to me has delivered safely and gone home with their children."

Sister Indoreyin Sambhor - traditional birth attendant: "God has been helping us so I don't even believe that there can be complications in children delivery."


Twenty-six-year-old Mercy Martin Udofia, in her eighth month of pregnancy, is a follower of Sister Indoreyin.
The dark-skinned woman, wearing a tight-fitting dress that shows her bulging tummy, says she gave birth to her first child in this church, and she will come back for a second time.
"As a child of God, you do not stay idle, you have to be closer to God. So that as a pregnant woman, when it comes to the time of delivery, everything will be easy for you."
But things are not always so rosy. A woman recently died while giving birth to twins at a church in the Burrow Pit suburb of Calabar.

A relative of the deceased said she passed away following complications arising from a retained placenta which the traditional birth attendant could not deal with. The twins survived and are currently being treated at a hospital in Calabar.
The authorities are taking action to deal with the issue.
Head of the state primary health agency Betta Edu says the state government will soon be passing a law aimed at stopping pregnant women giving birth in churches and seeing traditional birth attendants.
She thinks that many traditional birth attendants tell women that hospitals and health centres only carry out caesareans, and some of them could die as a result of heavy bleeding.
With such fears at the back of their minds, they see the birth attendants as the best choice, as they are both closer to God and have the traditional skills to help them deliver safely.
But Dr Edu argues that the practice will die out with a change in the law and the building of new health centres in every community.
All those involved in trying to change attitudes recognise that a lot of work still needs to be done.
"Our people are deeply religious, and some of them are so deep in the traditional practise that it's usually very difficult to shrug them off," Dr Ayade says.
"We need to educate them, encourage them and even entice them."

Pupils at Milton Hall School in Essex will soon be treated to lessons inside an actual private jet.
The disused plane was bought by the school earlier this month for an undisclosed fee and will be used to ‘inspire creative writing.’

The Cessna Citation fuselage, which was brought to the school’s playing field by crane, was said to be ‘a lot cheaper than building a classroom’.
Once it’s washed and gutted, it’s expected to hold up to 15 children.

Jon Baker, Milton Hall’s media manager told the BBC: ‘The children just want to get inside it, but we need to make it safe first.’

The next steps will be to add new aluminium wings and to jet wash the whole thing.

Mr Baker added: ‘It’ll comfortably fit half a class when we’re finished. The children have been writing stories about how they think it got there.

‘A couple of the reception classes have turned their classrooms into airports. It’s been a catalyst for inspiring creative writing.’

The school has been fundraising to pay for the renovations.

Once it’s ready, the school hopes to use it as an IT hub and for media studies.

They estimate it’ll take four months to transform the space, with seating, lighting, solar panels and wind turbines.
