Sure, but that's because everyone uses SHGetFolderPath or Environment.GetFolderPath to get these paths instead of hardcoding them. Right? Right??

This is about the .net TLD and has nothing to do with .NET the framework. It doesn't take long to realize this, it's even outright obvious considering ICANN is involved, but still... It seems weird to me that they would write .NET

On the one hand I wrote down the whole thing easily in (I think) less than 30 seconds. On the other hand I wrote Z25 (uh-oh) and I couldn't spot my mistake until I had the computer write it down too. All the letters were there. But I w

Less than six months ago I found this same site and I was practicing religiously multiple times a day. Several weeks ago I interrupted my practice for one reason or another and last time I tried my score had dropped to below 40%. I need to

I haven't actually tried either Dapper or PetaPoco, only perused their documentation. But I was sold on LinqToDb after seeing how it supported CTE and seeing our close code to generate updates [1] and joins [2] ended up looking like th

I've heard that due to time dilation time runs slower inside the Earth's core, enough to make it a couple of years younger than its surface.

It's interesting how I strongly disagreed with you before reading the linked blog post, but I fully agree with you after reading it. I still rather think of "git branches" as the technically correct "just refs" and

Type `1. <text>`, then just press Enter to add new items. Press Enter twice to finish the list. Also, tab and shift+tab seem to work to indent and unindent, for sub-lists.

by Zecc 4y ago
Shift+Enter is your friend, at least in that one particular situation. Alt+Enter seems to work as well. Ctrl+Enter will send the message.

I expressed myself poorly. In retrospect it sounds like the exact opposite of what I meant, in fact. What I meant is if you open what you would otherwise open in an incognito window in a container instead, you can restart your browser witho

I got extremely lucky on my first try as the letters were well-positioned, so I got it right after three guesses. And the answer was AWARD. I did not have such luck on my second attempt, which left me SURLY. I liked it.

I really held back moving to 10. The feature which finally got me to move from 7 was virtual desktops. I upgraded my Windows 7 to Windows "final version" 10 the week before they announced Windows 11. >_<

Since someone is going to point this out, it might as well be me: Ian's Knot [1] not only is super-fast (once you've learned it properly), it also ensures you are tying a strong knot. Also, a heel lock [2] is a independent thing w
