I have to do this to get it to work:
Start-Process PSMsgBox.exe -ArgumentList "/msg:""This is a test message"""
".45 ACP - because shooting twice is just silly" - JSOP, 2010

Interesting. I wonder if perhaps that colon after msg was the problem? Even though it worked in my test; which is very basic of course.
[edit]
There is a section in about_Special_Characters - PowerShell | Microsoft Docs[^] headed "Stop-parsing token", which may be of interest.

The colon isn't a special char. I even tried combinations of single/double quotes...

(Not sure if this is the correct forum. I'll give it a try.)
In my Visual Studio solution I have several projects. (ProjectA, ProjectB and so on...)
My solution also contains a .gitignore-file.
I would like to add all projects´ /bin and /obj folders to the .gitignore file.
These folders, and files in them, always updates when I even the smallest changes.
So when I want commit something in Team Explorer, I always see this folders and the files. I don't care about them.
In other solutions, I have been able to add folders and files to the .gitignore file in the Team Explorer of my choosing. In those cases I have added the /bin and /obj folders.
For this particular solution, this is not possible.
I wonder what I'm doing wrong.
Any suggestions?

Are they not excluded by default?

I can find the same list of items in my .gitignore.
But still the /bin and /obj folders and files are shown in the changes dialog.
Here are the items I don't want.
Solution folder
/.vs folder, sub folders and files.
Project A
/bin/Debug folder and files.
/obj folder, sub folders and files.
Project B
/bin/Debug folder and files.
/obj folder and files.
Project C
/bin/Debug folder and files.

Did you add or update the .gitignore file after checking your project in for the first time?

Unfortunately I did not.
Several commits after the first commit I added the .gitgnore-file. 
I'm looking for the "Ignore this local item" selection.
Please see the answer in this link from StackOverFlow.
This option only seem to be available before doing the first commit.
I don't understand why.
Is there a solution for me?

Once you've committed a file to Git, it will be tracked even if you update the .gitignore file to exclude it.
You'll need to delete your local copy of the file, commit your changes, and then restore your local copy.
In this case, try cleaning the solution, committing the changes, and then rebuilding.

Thank you for that tip!
I deleted the folders and files.
Commited the deleted stuff.
Now VS will not try to include the /bin and /obj folders and files in every commit.
Thank you!

Hello guys,
I've been given a chance to work in a company as a web developer, but they want me to use Oracle Apex which I've never heard before.
What do you know of the plataform? Is it worth learning it?
|
|
|
|
|
I don't know much about it; however, since it is a low-code platform you will likely not write much code so it depends on what you want to do in your job.
Social Media - A platform that makes it easier for the crazies to find each other.
Everyone is born right handed. Only the strongest overcome it.
Fight for left-handed rights and hand equality.

Well you have a simple choice: accept the job and learn it, or find a different job.
|
|
|
|
|
Hope you're doing well. I need help with my project, can you help me? please let me know. Thanks
Vikram

cp (articles) search result[^]
Sorting these to obtain off-title items can be done by altering initial settings in the left panel. If you choose an article and go to it's page sometimes you'll get more off-title matches listed in the right panel.
[EDIT]
Sorry, I mispoke, there's no right-panel "Related" stuff in article. That feature is found in Question & Answer. You can always read an article, try it's code to see if it suits your purpose, or better yet recieve an error during compile, and post a general question about that error there. Better yet just ask questions about the code you download through the article right there at the bottom of the article page.

I was thinking of doing the page source on each and every messageboard page and cntrl+a then cntrl+c and then pasting it into text files and just going back and deleting everything except usernames and actual messages, but is there a freeware or trialware program that can do this, basically ONLY copy the actual messages (including html links) and the username the message belongs to, ignoring all the user profile info, signatures, times/dates, etc.
Any and all help would be appreciated, I would think this wouldn't be too complicated to just write a program for, ignoring some text and just accumulating certain other text. I am very rusty on programming is there a website that I could just ad-hoc a solution for this and built a rudimentary program to scan thousands or millions of pages of 10 messages each? Thank you!

You probably need to write a web scraper. Google will find samples and tutorials on the subject.

I haven't found any reliable answers on google so I am asking here. I know these two expressions produce the same results but I would like to know which one is faster and why is it faster. If I were to use them in two different loops with each one iterating about 100 times, would one loop finish earlier than the other? and by what margin?

So why not try it out?
It could vary with the implementation, and with the Python version. If you try it out for yourself, you get the right answer for your installation.
I would be very surprised if there was any difference at all. There will always be some random fluctuations, due to interrupts and OS activity, but that should affect both alternatives equally.
In any case: In 100 iterations, the difference would be so small it would not be possible to measure. Iterate at least a few million times before drawing any conclusion.

Well I don't know how to try this out for myself. I am just a beginner in python so I don't know much about measuring the time taken by a program to complete. Could you please explain how this could be done?

I do not code in Python on a regular basis, and if I do, I have to google a lot...
So I googled "python timing", and the first hit, at performance - Measure time elapsed in Python - Stack Overflow[^] discusses a few alternatives. It looks like the best solution would be something like
from timeit import default_timer as timer
start = timer()
# ...
end = timer()
print(end - start) # Time in seconds, e.g. 5.38091952400282 Obviously, the "# ..." indicates where you put you one-million iterations loop.
