I completely agree. After having used C# extensively recently, and having used quite a lot of Java before that, I have a feeling that C# is what Java should have been/should be. LINQ alone makes C# infinitely less verbose and 'boi

In the end, do you think the 15-16 hour work day was close to being as productive as two 8 hour work days? I feel that in the end you will create more harm than good as more mistakes creep in during the later hours of the day which will the

VS2010 actually does implement quite a few of C++11's features, you have to be careful though and better read the MSDN documentation for each of them. A weird case I found recently was that the VS2010 implementation of std::to_string(.

You could have a look at Owncloud ( http://owncloud.org ). I played around with it a couple of days ago and seems to be quite powerful. It acts very much like Dropbox and can be installed on any web server that supports PHP.

I did the same! It also doesn't seem to like swear words and web abbreviations (like j/k for example). Perhaps with more data (from twitter or similar) it could go a long way though; as it definitely needs to learn about the more

I have seen people get around it by making their own version of the map. Those maps usually end up having the stations match their respective locations to each other more closely. They naturally don't look as 'good' as the official map thou

£20 on giffgaff? You must make a lot of calls to non-giffgaff users on the go. And how were you paying £80 before? The advantage of having a smartphone is that you can get by easily on something like their £10-12 plan simply by using data t
