It's been many years since I was a (.NET) developer and therefore since I used automapper. Are there any VS plugins that take the tedium out of this mapping? Right click on a class, choose a class to map it to, and it creates the boile

VR is a different beast and much less comfortable than I envision the (medium to long term) future of AR to look like. I don't love watching movies/TV in VR right now, if only because I find the headset makes my head overheat.

AR, not VR. To clarify - and I should have said this in my original post - I'm envisioning the equivalent of a pair of spectacles, not a huge headset, with the knowledge that it's probably many years off...

I'll keep saying this until it happens...the biggest AR use case, for me, is replacing the television. The fact that we all have giant boxes as the centerpiece of our main rooms is something unnatural that we take for granted. I'm

I agree and would compare it to chips (French Fries) from a chipper in western europe. Grew up on the stuff and a bag of chips was affordable after school, was cheap when in college, and food from a chipper is a relatively cheap and delicio

We do this. New stuff I buy has no sentimental value attached and if it can't be easily maintained, I have no interest in it. When in doubt (which is rare because we typically do our research before purchasing) we chuck it in the dishw

Haven't tried this solution but my first thought was of those (.NET) libraries that would generate comments using a functions signature (function name, parameter name, etc.). Remember some senior devs at the company I worked for at the

I hate veggie patties and feel like they were always the frost-bitten-back-of-the-freezer-kept-around-in-case-a-vegetarian-one-day-visits option that a restaurant falls back on. Not a vegetarian any more, but I don't think in the years

had the exact same thought. if anyone works in-office and has the time/capacity (don't get fired) to do this with some colleagues, it'd be a fun and interesting experiment!

Thanks. I do however think that people are referring to home-assistant.io, not Apple Home Assistant.

How long before we can replace monitors with virtual monitors via AR? I feel like we take for granted that we have TVs taking up huge chunks of our living rooms and monitors of our offices. Obviously resolution is a (huge) issue. Another, f

That was an enjoyable, nostalgia filled, and depressing read. It's obvious he didn't have the right security in place, but it seems he also didn't insure his collectibles appropriately. It's hard not to feel sorry for so
