I have both iPad and Surface and I've had the iPad for years. I've asked my girlfriend if she wants an iPad and she told me that she didn't because she didn't really find a use case for it. When I brought home the Surface she said: "Wow, th

"All of the original Surface reviews were negative" No they're not? Then you haven't read ALL of them, mine weren't negative and most of the ones I read weren't negative either. I don't think you want to remember the positive ones, but ther

"Most of the Surface reviews have spoken poorly about the device." What reviews have you been reading? Edit: Regarding the actual topic, this is just "normal" PR it's a way to scare people into swapping from gmail to outlook.com unfortunate

I agree. Can't wait to get my hands on one and use it as a replacement in meetings/demos/presentations just to see if it's better suited for that than my "portable" EliteBook.

Can you track changes? If you can this would be Very helpful for authors like myself that use LaTeX to write books. Could just invite the proofers.

Right, but I am not talking about the reddit stuff which was one year ago and I learnt from that mistake.

Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying the book! Yeah I've purchased my book on CreateSpace a couple of times, I didn't find it much different from other e-stores, maybe it's because I had previously created an account? As far as I know you go th

I've had both beginners and very advanced programmers read it and both found things that they liked. When I wrote it I had someone that knew a bit about C# in mind and wanted to explore C# and get a gasp on when to use async/dynamic/roslyn/

The story that I shared is kind of incomplete at the moment, I haven't finished all the parts in the series. The reason that I posted this was that I wanted to show the end result which wasn't linked/mentioned in the story. Not aiming to br

Is there something wrong with showing off work that you are proud of? If something I share here gets upvotes then apparently some people find it interesting. Not trying to upset anyone here, I just want to share my work and share my story,

You're right, at the time though it didn't feel very constructive to hear those words. There are much better ways that it could have been presented to me however the impact of a nicer way to say it might have changed the outcome of the book

Right! As far as I know either you go all-in with a publisher or you don't go with them at all. So they won't help you promote the book if they haven't helped you published it. However, CreateSpace that I've used to self-publish the book ha

Since the e-book is included when you purchase the printed copy, the printed versions have sold better because you get everything. Maybe 1/3 is plain Kindle/PDF sales and the rest is printed. When it's time to write the next book I will cer

Thanks for the input! The biggest problem I had with LaTeX was after the book was done and I wanted to get it ready for Kindle and Epub. Luckily I found tex4ht which compiles LaTeX to HTML/XML which I just needed to write CSS for. Writing
