> Google rewards the richest Oh come on.. if multiplying your ranking by 0.01 (now) means that much to you, then probably you're making enough money you can afford a cert - or you probably have one in place.

And it's not in fairness to the late bidders. Everyone knows well how much the price increases in the last minute.

If the shoe were on the other foot, and you lost out on a domain due to their technical glitch I'm sure there would also be uproar. [Funny how their downtime actually brings in more money]

JSON isn't a feature of JavaScript. It's the other way around.

Sure. But "99%" of developers just need serialisation, which is supported. You (and myself) want more than that.

Why not create yourself a code generator, which analyses the class and generates code to perform the manual map<->object transfer?

What if everyone commented on an article, so they could re-read it later?

I don't think it's the technical accomplishment that's significant - more the fact that producers are increasingly recognising Linux as an emerging gaming platform.

The DOS games I've seen are DOSBox wrappers. I wonder if they've made the games work (if they didn't already) by hacking DOSBox, rather than the game.

When debugging, you usually want to see the exact code that's being run - not a "reference" version which may not have the certain bit of code that you're trying to workaround/call. The only advantage that the refer

That's not opensource. (I know you know that, but I'm just saying) Also, it provides nothing more than ilspy does (and ilspy shows the actual code on your machine)

It's for publicity + out of desperation. They have treated developers (like myself) badly over the years, many are moving away. So they've released some throw-away products as open-source, on different project collaboration site t

I believe the blame should be shifted towards the legislation that these companies must adhere to.

I completely agree. And why should my taxes go to a foreign company, who are trying their best to dodge paying taxes in my country. I'd rather it was spend on employing local people. Not only that, how can a government feel confident i

The bounty "prize" is you will eventually have a working product to use. If you don't report it, then there is slim chance of the bug being fixed.

For phones? it already is. For the desktop? it's always "next year"

It's easier than rolling your own, which is what most Windows developers do. It's strange that Windows still doesn't provide this for desktop applications. Also, VS pro is something that a Windows developer could already ha

Hmm.. I use owncloud, and the ethics of the sysadmin completely match my own. (although he is a bit of an idiot)

I mean, a single instance (perhaps one more) is hardly a "long history" or "repeated issues".

Do you have anything to support your claim?

I do this each month, where I work enough to support us for the rest of the month. Unfortunately, it's always at the end of the month when I reach that goal.

Exactly. Any AV worth it's salt should pick up something that a security update should have fixed.

No, they ask their IT department. The difference being, they can fix issues with the OS themselves (or hire someone to). With something closed like Windows, there's only one place to go for support.

I believe you get that with all OS upgrades.

The exaggeration of IE6's death has been greatly exaggerated.

While I don't blame Microsoft for ending support (they have been very accomodating already), but I find it strange of them to leave so many users stranded. Especially now there's several alternatives to Windows, all requiring a si

We know they stink, but it's what a lot of people have spent time working with. There is no straightforward migration path from vdproj to WiX, either. It's a case of re-writing all of your deployment code (which has already been t
