Sorry in case I offended/disturbed you, my only intention is to help. Search for Beta in the article.
Nevertheless, in case you explicitly let test it, it will you help to exclude it. Information means to preclude uncertainties 
Sorry again.

Now help an old man, please. How one can get a link to a specific chapter in wiki?

Click on a header in the contents.
The page will go to something like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthyroidism#Beta-blockers
The #whatever at the end is an anchor and will take you to that place in the article

I see, works fine. Thank you very much

I had to do a presentation of a new utility program I had written for PC-mainframe file transfers (back when this was a new thing). There were supposed to be 4 or 5 attendees so I printed off 6 copies of the hand-out just in case someone else turned up at the last minute. When I opened the door to the conference room there were 44 people in there! I had to send my manager off to photocopy the hand-outs a lot.
I was surprised by the numbers but apparently word had spread and lots of departments decided they could use my little utility.
Luckily I had previously been a professor for three years so was experienced in public speaking as it were - but even then my class was never more than 20 and spread out in a lecture hall. This was a lot of people in a conference room that had them standing around the edges as there wasn't enough chairs. I felt I had to present my info quickly because of all the people who would have to stand through it.
It all went well. I cut a 45-minute talk down to 25 minutes (and then a lot of them left) and lots of question time for those that remained.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

Many years ago, my mentor at the time told me: "When you have to speak to a large group of people, imagine that you are looking out over a field of cabbages. Then address them like you are talking to a cabbage patch."
I never forgot that advice.

Unfortunately, it's not that simple.

I just didn't know how to respond to that and it made things a bit awkward.
I don't think she really appreciated my advice of taking more (legal) drugs
The conversation was pretty much over after that.

So talking about beta-blockers is a c*ck-blocker?
Gotcha. Cheers.

They generally take a couple of days to be visible, but I got the "approve" email from Urban Dictionary for Manrange: Of flowers, to be stuffed in a vase so the multi-coloured bits are at the top.
I got you some flowers dear - I manranged them in that vase
I've had one of those days: we got up this morning, and found no hot water, so I've had to fix that - turned out it was the immersion heater thermostat (cheap to buy) but whoever built the abortion that is the water cabinet only gave me 16 inches between the top of the hot tank and the bottom of the shelf supporting the cold water tank. And the thermostat is 18 inches, so getting it out was ... um ... fun. Getting the new one in was even more so since I had to be rather more careful with this one.
Arranging Herself's weekly flowers tidily was never going to happen. Manranging was. And did.

Congratulations on the word! ![Jig | [Dance]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/jig.gif) I also had a nasty experience with a household contraption last week. We suddenly found our refrigerator bottom drawer for the freezer compartment was stuck. It turns out over time some stuff in the freezer had fallen out and behind the freezer drawer, preventing its door from closing completely. Moisture got into the freezer and froze the drawer slides solidly in place.
Luckily it was just a matter of cleaning out the freezer compartment, to get the drawer operating again.
The joys of home ownership!

The element is always fun - particularly with an old tank, as the neck gets brittle. So when you put that big spanner on and start turning, it may not be the thread that is moving - and then it;s new tank time.
I leave those to people who have insurance against damage like that ... fortunately this was just the thermostat, which is - in theory - remove two wires and lift up. Until it hits the ceiling and there is no more up to lift it into. :swearword: :swearword: :swearword:

Congrats with the word !
I had some fun too today placing a floodlight next to the backdoor of our house, mounting the thing was no problem but then I had to connect it to an existing junction box.
The box seemed large enough, but it proved to be a real hassle to cram everything in!

Microsoft's CodeDOM does not support operators like += or ++ so while I can emulate them, sort of, my emulated operators will not call the appropriate operator overloads.
Well in the C# compiler that shipped with very early .NET I think you could call the static operator overload methods like op_Addition() manually.
Now, it throws a compile error. This is terrible.
A) There shouldn't be special knowledge of certain static methods, such that the compiler flags them as uncallable.
B) Now I have no way to truly simulate certain operators using the CodeDOM in a language independent manner.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

Can't you just translate the lines with that operators back to "normal"?
M.D.V.
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

No because I don't render the code in the final target language. I simply build the abstract syntax tree for it, and the AST doesn't have anywhere to indicate these types of operators, ergo, the target renderers cannot render them.
A long time ago, I made my own custom renderer for C# that would take things like that, and turn them back to normal as you say, but it requires a custom renderer for each target language, which defeats the purpose of my code.

There must be a way to do it - the LINQ Expressions API can handle it. Perhaps some spelunking on Expression.AddAssign might reveal the secret sauce?

It's not the expressions library and there's no secret sauce 
It's just an object model without the appropriate enum for representing those operators.
And there's no backdoor in the renderers that's standard across all of them, not that i know of anyway, and i don't know that there are magic cookies you can send them to render different than stock things in the first place.
