I totally understand that sentiment. I've decided to undertake a project such that I can code everything in the native language (using internal/external DSL's where appropriate) to translate the code / meta-code to HTML, Javascript, etc. What I want as the end result is a library of common solutions to current requirements that can grow as new requirements are encountered. I'm sick of writing code, HTML, and Javascript, most of which is re-invented for every new web-app. Not to mention that myriad of half-baked j-blah-blah-blah libraries out there, each of which does more-or-less the same thing, but differently. Anyways, I ramble...

Oh, I meant to ask, what are you looking at doing instead?

I'm still kicking some ideas around.
My goal is to be out of it in 4 years.
I'm giving myself time to pay off bills, go to school, ect.

Do some Googleing and you will find that some people not just wasting their times to play that game but actually wrote code to solve it...

I am not wasting time on it. It is once in a while refresher for me. I either do that or play a game of online pool.

The mobile version has undo, limited to 2 per game. I'm assuming that it was added to deal with poor swipes across the screen, since I've done it a couple times.
That said, the purist in me does its best to resist using them unless it was an honest mistake in moving the tiles.

That's all it takes.
What I hate worse is when you get a '2' tile down in a corner where you don't want it.
No way to get that little devil out of there and the whole thing is screwed.

I think I kind of know the pattern now. It does not happen to me anymore. It used to happen initially though.

That's nuts. I don't know how many hours I wasted to get to 2048, now I'm going to have to try again!

I'm sorry.
I was addicted but once I hit the 4096 tile my desire to play turned off like a light switch.
I wish the same for you.

8192 is white with black letters. I have found a pattern, but even with that key combination, the 16384 is too long to obtain.

Are you sure 16384 is too long to obtain?
What if you built it up with 4 tiles of 4096 instead of a long string of numbers?

Oh Jeez, how do I hate thee? Let me count the ways.
93. There are 93 different ways in which I hate GIT! I have to use the bloody thing and I'm not sure if I'm pointing to the right repo or not. Elephants!

I totally agree. I REALLY don't understand how it has become so darn popular. It's unintuitive, user-unfriendly and even buggy...
Note: If you pronounce it in French, the name couldn't be more appropriate! 
But because it's the hottest thing since Salma Hayek, management insists that we used it.
No thanks, give me back SVN - it was easy and nice to work with, and no bugs (that I know of)

It is popular because the database follows you around so you can work from home, and on site without connecting back to base. You can check in stuff whenever and wherever. At the end of the day, you still have to merge it with the "master" even though there is no official "master".
Yes - I like SVN and I'm sticking to it. I just get a mini-repository when I go off site.

I suspect it is more likely that it is because all of the cool kids are using it.

Oh dear, we're supposed to be migrating to this at work. I've used the command line tool & had assumed it would get easier when I got some GUI or other.
The two posts in this thread are not encouraging.

#17 according to the Paris command line, something has happened to something somewhere. I have no idea what or where!

"Git did not exit cleanly" no information about why!

I'm working with git as an extension to VS's Team Explorer (VS 2012/2013) and had no problem so far (4 months)...

As far as I knew, VS Team Server Explorer shipped with version control (Last version I had success with was 2010, 2012 didn't play nice with the rest of the team's setup so I threw it out.) From what I've read about GIT, it seemed really unfriendly. The interfaces in VSTS were UI, web link, and command, I thought GIT was console command only.

I have been trying to learn GIT & XAML for the past 2 years. I'am certain i'll keep trying for a very long time.

I don't have any issues with it.
