The question is: who will read community suggestion? Microsoft support personnel?

Good question. In that case, they'll be about as good as the round file.

An LLVM for decompilation, Snowman's source code will be released soon The bad news? You get C++

Even worst - you get C!

Gawd, I'd rather read the assembly code than some horrendous C output. C is bad enough, but without function and variable names to give a clue as to what's going on, I personally consider the assembly code to be much more readable!

Yeah. I'm expecting the only real use for this might be to get out of those, "That contractor left us with an EXE and no source" situations.

Potentially not if you start with a debug build executable. I started at a company some years ago and discovered they had never done a release build and their product was going out as debug build.

Is that true for Linux .o or executable files, as well, that they have a debug build mode that includes symbols? I mean, with regards to the GCC compiler options?

Reminds me of an intergration test done with a big player in the healthcare IT market several years ago.
Suddenly a "debug assertion failed" message popped up.
"I actually expected this test to be done with a version released to customers."
"Yes, that's the correct version."
"But that debug assertion... It means a debug version!"
"We release a debug build to our customers."
"But with C++, you'll also have to ship the C++ debug dlls. And they must not be delivered to customers."
"Well, [company name] has a special agreement with Microsoft."
If you are big enough, there is no need to worry about your bad practices.

The firm says the credentials were stolen from other services and just happen to work — sometimes — on the victims’ Dropbox accounts as well. Still, couldn't hurt to change your password (again)

The fact is that the number of passwords you should memorize is pretty small, and there is no need of teaching users how to choose good passwords. Everyone knows what a good password looks like, we just can't memorize unique, strong passwords, for every single on-line service out there. Right, my new password everywhere: "horse battery staple INcorrect"

On October 13 1994, it was announced that the “Netscape network navigator” browser would be made available to download by anyone, initially as a public beta. So, there are probably people in the workforce younger than the 'commercial' Web

I wish I was one of them...

Want to switch between programming languages? These sites show developers how to bridge the gap between languages and frameworks. "My hovercraft is full of eels"

Crosswise is actually quite educational!

Is that really the word for eels? Seems a little anti-British (of course, they're pretty much the only ones foolish enough to eat them)
