  1. @paulmwatson Exactly. The property setting and method calling semantics are practically identical, yet VB devs can't read C# sample code.
  2. Every .NET developer should learn just enough of both VB & C# to comprehend 99.9% of the code samples on the web.
  3. I'm very keen to have a go at dry tooling. Anyone know a good place to go?
  4. @nextchallenge I'm fairly certain there's another 403 days until the decade is over :)
  5. @WGRyan I've no idea what a "Uffie & Ke$ha" is. Popular culture isn't something I follow (or understand).
  6. @WGRyan No, not at all. They will be making extra deliveries during the week before Christmas.
  7. Royal Mail are planning evening & Sunday deliveries in the week leading up to Xmas. Wonder what the unions make of that...
  8. Just seen the latest radar pics -- more rain on it's way.
  9. http://twitpic.com/q968o One of the finest pieces of climbing engineering on the market. It's a Size 0 Brass Offset.
  10. Someone needs to tell Mother Nature that Llanberis is only supposed to get about 100 inches of rain. Annually. Not weekly.
  11. Ha! The hiccup tweet lost me a couple followers. They are obviously not amused by such trivialities.
  12. Why is it that if you have hiccups you can't say the word "hiccup" without hicupping?!
  13. @spindlyone Why not go the whole hog: 12 mths of 30 days ea. Make 1 week = 5 days. Every 3rd week is a weekend.
  14. @Al_Humphreys Loving the idea of the Trans-Iceland adventure. I'm toying with the idea of cycling around Iceland sometime next year.
  15. @yellowpark Mostly CLI utilities. It has a HTTP lib so it could be used as a web client for APIs. Would perform faster than a script.
  16. @yellowpark I got it compiled under Snow Leopard and tried a couple of simple programs. It handles concurrency very well.
  17. @yellowpark Congratulations! That's excellent news and a really interesting opportunity.
  18. @paulmwatson That looks like a cheat mode key combo from the days of the SuperNES.
  19. "Due to the recent strikes, Christmas is now being postponed until sometime in January. Merry chuffin' Christmas!"
  20. 1st class post from Amazon now takes a min. of 3 days from dispatch. Got to love Royal Mail. No, really. Keep up the good work.
