Wow. This code is pretty bad. I mean, it's bad for a college project. It's horrible for a company dealing with large sums of money. Some random red flags: - There's a class with the name of the application. (Issues: Scope, SR

"I'm not entirely convinced the off-by-1 is substantial". What? You don't think always putting ace of spades at the bottom of the deck is substantial? (given that's what "52" represents)

"no one who cares about computers uses Microsoft's anyway." That was a false statement in 2007 and is still today. I'm the evidence, if no one else. And I don't think I'm alone, although it does puzzle me w

As a developer I feel this pain as well. On the WinRT platform you actually have the "trial version"-flag which allows the user to test it before they pay. This feature is useless in the same sense as paid app is, since everyone i

WTF 8TB? Are you a movie editor or something? Anyway, I'm sure you don't change 8TB of data regularly. Back up the 7,9TB which is stale on a physical media you store at your parents', then set up online sync for anything new
