You're not comparing VS with fine German engineering, are you? 
Just a BMW's ABS means it shouldn't crash as often as VS.

VS to BMW is like Lada to Learjet.

I wonder if you boss knows you are doing this, or may be you don't have a boss.

My boss is only interested in the SSIS part of what I do and having it in TFS; and that requires VS.
How I write the utilities that I use to make my job easier doesn't interest him.

Well, for that he (and you) can just install Atom.io[^]

I think I looked at that a few years ago.

A few "years" ago?  It's only just recently been released... Perhaps you're a time traveler?

You're thinking of the latter, but that was the "beta". It is now out of beta and has been "released". There was a post about it in the last few weeks in the "Insider News" forum.

You can lead a developer to CodeProject, but you can't make them think.

What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?
The metaphorical solid rear-end expulsions have impacted the metaphorical motorized bladed rotating air movement mechanism.
Do questions with multiple question marks annoy you???

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I am sooo glad I never had to use a line editor. While some of my classmates were using EDT (?) in line mode, the cool kids showed me how to use TECO in screen mode (this was on a PDP-11).

mmm, good old days, PDP 11/60 RSTS/E, OMSI Pascal, (?Variant)BASIC

BASIC-PLUS is what I first learned on a PDP-11. Then some form of Pascal also on a PDP-11. Most of my college work was in VAX Pascal.

Holy sh*t! I completely forgot about that from my PDP-11/44 days back in school. It was far better than using the line printer terminals, but in those COBOL days, anything was better than sitting there writing it out on paper.

Also glad I never had to do that. The 80s was a great time to begin using computers.

Because "succeed" is not in their dictionary?
Hey, what's the past tense of "succeed"?
|
|
|
|

In this case because it's an entire book series[^]
The books are about 100 pages long, hence the "Succinct" part
