I only use it for authenticating - it's pretty okay for that :)

At least you still have the keystore and if all else fails can bruteforce the password. I lost the keystore to one of my apps once :(

I'm with ReSharper here which reports option a as redundant. Omitting the elses makes the code more easy to read and saves on indents.

@ftechhelp same :D I'd need some verification please

@ftechhelp thank you for the link :)

@simulate they voted again because they changed the proposal in the mean time. The fundamental problems still stand, but the law now does not apply to small companies (<10m€ balance sheet or 50 employees).
Also, the law now states, that no automated filtering should be used now, while in fact still makes exactly that mandatory.

You could just use the Linux subsystem for windows 10

I like the first analogy. It's dangerous and possibly life threatening to use unmanaged pointers in an environment you don't fully trust.

With the same logic, things like vs code could never have happened. Perhaps, Microsoft profits most of keeping gh as free and open as it is - and the good publicity of that.
I do get that one does not like big companies. But Microsoft, Apple, Google and the like didn't get that big and, more importantly, stay alive, by not doing well.

They do, actually. The background picture changes and there are three floating text regions providing information about the scene. Or, in some rare cases, explain the benefits of using Bing or windows store.

Personally, I find the feature good enough to let it slide as long as its rare enough.

Unmetered is not strictly required, but for example vultr has not really that much bandwidth.
My project will be serving images. If the average user looks at 50 images per day with an image size of 1 MB, I couldn't serve more than about 650 clients on the 5$ vps - with the rest of the specs being fine. Going up the tiers, bandwidth scales really badly - the 80$ machine only having 5 times the bandwidth.

Blockchain is only really useful in a scenario where nobody trusts anybody. While you could argue that this might be the case here, it comes with several drawbacks - institutionalized environmental damage and the possibility of a hostile takeover by controlling more than 50% of the network being two of them.
Perhaps you could achieve the same (with your project being the trusted entity) with an "eternal log file"

Strange. I have encountered scaleway as a very fair company so far. The only thing that bothers me a bit is that you pay for images that you create, but it's understandable.

Getting a boyfriend is much easier I guess. Getting married next week!

What is their deal? Are they like a publisher?

Ever played eve online? This is a scam.

@irene of guys interested in guys. This includes bi as well.

@irene story of my life. However, in this case, it would be about the same. The numbers range from 5-15%

As for the guy to gal ratio: there is a real easy solution to that! Just be gay!
Suddenly the ratio works for you instead of against you.

@MrJimmy
Depending on what you copy, you will have the same effect in windows. Basically, at the time you press copy, the program dumps a lot of different representations of the selected object into the clipboard. For example, if you copy a PowerPoint slide, you have a text representation, an image, and a pointer to the source slide.
The receiving program asks for a specific representation (and failing that, another, etc.)
In the PowerPoint example, you can close the source PowerPoint and paste your clipboard as text or image - but you cannot paste it as a slide, because for that, the source PowerPoint would be needed.

Yes, that's why I'm waiting impatiently for 15.6

In general, a lot of C# development is quite possible on Linux. For example everything .net core as well as xamarin.

However, whenever I tried, desktop applications felt really awkward since the ui just isn't geared towards Linux-like appearance and you're loosing the most powerful desktop ui framework since wpf is not supported.

One more thing to consider is the ide. Yes, you can use whatever editor you like and can compile using dotnet and Mono. But I have yet to see an ide/debugger that is remotely as powerful and comfortable as visual studio with ReSharper.

Also, depending on what you are developing, loosing WPF is pretty much one of the worst options.

@LicensedCrime You mean uncomment lines, like with ctrl-k-u?

If you are using some kind of visual designer, using vs makes some sense. I'd probably decide for vs even when coding by hand, just because of intellisense autocomplete. If you're in for the text only, there is always vs code.

Turns out the domain was somehow not registerable at the registrar. I didn't even know that was possible :o

In our team, once a story is implemented, the qa team begins to test this story. It's not transitioned to "done" until the qa team says so.

Of course this only works because we have our build server spit out a build on every Checkin to dev.

In that case you're kind of out of luck :/

Hello my friend. Let me show you the wonders of ClosedXml!

I'm using the term syntactic sugar as well, but almost always in a positive way. And I agree with you that most of it makes code actually more readable - like async await in C# for example

Thanks :)
Great idea looking on devrant. And quite obvious if you think about it
