On it's way already, going by today's news[^].. 
How do you know so much about swallows? Well, you have to know these things when you're a king, you know.

If you are personally familiar with ThingWorx, (like, you've actually written a piece of code in an embedded device, and used ThingWorx) then...
Please give me your SHORT opinion, quick off the top of your head, about it.
Let's say, ten sentences max, with 75 words max.

Who meets my giant muscular programmers arms! 
Last year I started working out, and for the first time ever pretty serious!
I think I held out for about two to three months, but I stopped and never picked up those dumbbells again...
Until about a month ago.
Unfortunately I couldn't lift what I lifted last year, so I took off some weight and started going at it again.
I just added the weights again and had a successful workout 
Looking to buy some new weights as I start adding new workouts to my routine

Glad to hear it man. As devs, it's really important we stay physical like that to counter-balance all the sitting on our arses we do. So, rock on!

Code with one arm, do curlups with the other then switch. Butt clenches. You could do your programming in one of those training chairs where you push weight with your legs. Or hold laptop with one arm, use other to type and do squats. It could be a new thing, out with the coffee and in with the smoothies and protein shakes.

Never!
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 can only encourage you to keep it up.
When we left the states in 1980 I had to leave behind my beloved and much used weight lifting set.
Because of the weight which of course was limited when we moved back to Germany.
Only recently I've embarked on a mission to return. Momentarily I get my workout in the basement doing serious wood working stuff, but for enhanced stamina I've been taking up riding my bike to work and back. (37.2 KM to and fro).
Cheers!

Me too!
Great way to keep in shape, keep it up!

I do my regular bit of pushups since I left the air force 4 months ago.
The Training there was a good start, and I'm now looking to improve that Level further.

Wow, nice job!
Good luck

Well, carrying ~15kg of gear during a -3 degree (Celsius) night, through the Woods (everywhere was snow) over something 20-ish Kilometers (Average Speed: 7.5 km/h, by foot) gives you some Training, even though those were rather rare occasions.

Nice! A developer, and one with muscles. The girls don't stand a chance.

Go for it! I really should start running like I used to, I enjoyed that quite a lot. I no longer need dumbbells, I have something much better - they ask me to carry them and give me quite a workout. The only trouble is they usually are asleep when I get home from work.

On Wednesday, August 5th of the year 2015 AD on the Gregorian calendar, I just installed VB6 to update some legacy code.

Pretty sure VBA is not licensed to give absolution, so I'd say no.

It's an existing project from back in the day.

Lets just say I read the subject line, opened the message, and...well, I'll just summarize it as "surpassing my expectations".
|
|

I am not proud of this. I simply state it here as a warning to others, that should they go the way of the 6th of VB, they will then understand the shame that goes along with such actions.

Speak ye not to the grayed wizard of Up, for he shall lead thee to certain doom. Rewrite ye thine code unto the sea of sharp, using thine own two hands, and thou shalt be saved.

Verily I say unto thee, that the Lord has given-eth me time to rewrite such an abomination. Alas, I first must harken upon a call to hastily fix-eth a bug.

Nay, the existence of such a bug wouldst suggest the vessel to be otherwise. Contemplate thou the very meaning of such, and thou shalt find the creature itself to be thine bug. Bring down thine the power of the sharpened sea, and smite the insect!
Ok... I can't do this anymore... It gives me nightmares about a religious upbringing I didn't even have 
So... Minimum patch to fix the bug, then scrap the damn thing and build one that works. I did that ten years ago at my first hedge fund job... Of course, it shut down before I could decommission the old version...
