Depends on the Zune I think. If it was a V1, there is a lot to hate. Also, try using it today - this guy did and it seems like he seriously struggled: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hG3Jud-829A

Xamarin Forms already supports those platforms and you can use them today. The main stumbling block is that the tooling doesn't have project templates for those platforms yet. So you need to manually create the MacOS or WPF projects. A

For me, an iPhone 6s hold out, this looks like a solid upgrade. The 6s is beginning to show its age (battery is creaky, processor is slower than my wife's 8, camera is so-so.) Tempted to be sure.

If they follow the procedure in the UK, they can do this AFAIK. Though, they might need to make the position redundant and offer another position at a lower wage. Either way, it's a contract change.

The weirdest thing is that the first "Roku" I owned was the box brought out for Now TV (UK streaming service, owned by Sky and heavily invested in Roku apparently), and it did not include Netflix!! It also did not include Youtub

Take a look at the Continuous IDE for iOS and iPadOS. It's C# based, but it will compile and run any code supported by the platform, including UIKit, SpriteKit/SceneKit and Xamarin.Forms. The compiler is the Roslyn compiler. The o

The "two" books mentioned that were written by Serge Lidin are basically the same book, the latter is just an updated version. So really, there's only one book with two editions.

The API he is using is public and seems to be intended to do what he is doing with it. The main issue is the name - Apple probably won't like the name very much.

Do you know of a resource that shows pictograms for Polish like the one the parent shows? My partner is Polish and I’m slowly acquiring the language, butI have always struggled to visualise the meanings of the Polish equivalent prefixes

You missed two that I can think of: (1) the runtime written in F# that Frank Krueger’s Continuous uses (and I believe also Xamarin Live player uses in some fashion.) (2) Goa WinForms was a C# compiler that targeted the Adobe Flash Player,

Didn’t they try this before? I had a copy of the Photoshop Touch(?) app previously. It was on iOS and Android. I think it was 32bit though, so no chance it still works on iOS.

You might find the file handle stuff comes from the fact that a lot of the Be employees were originally Mac developers at the start, and quite possibly because they wanted to support some of the features that were in the OFS (original File

The advantage of Object Pascal is that it is compiled to binary. Lua is generally interpreted. I guess you could implement Lua execution on top of this - so you could make it happen. Depends if the Free Pascal compiler can link in the Lua i

Open arrays were in Delphi from the beginning, but Dynamic arrays were added much later (circa 4.0 IIRC.) Object Pascal was always a lot more free with setting the bounds of an array too - you could specify any arbitrary range or even an en

Isn't this about bringing Kazakh closer to say, Turkish too? I wondered if part of the motivation wasn't to align themselves more with the Turks - both languages having a common language family/ancestor.

There was some shady Classic Mac OS Source floating about on a Hotline server I used to have access to. I looked at it, but I think it was almost totally in 68000 assembler, so it had minimal use/interest to me at the time.

All of them. He flirted with them all. Jaiku, Identi.ca, App.net, etc. He was always trying to find an alternative. I've been listening on and off to him since my first iPod, so over 10 years. As each new one came out he jumped on it.

Yeah, the tools I had were picky. The size of the OS partition was very specific - it had to fit on to a multiple of a CF card I think. There was some kind of hard limit of about 32MB or something like that. I know I had it all running on a

BeIA was quite clever. The OS compressed the binaries by using a one way (?) process to pull out common code segments in to a common dictionary. The OS then read that code somehow in to memory when the apps started. You could run the OS unc
