1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions. Or if you must, use the Back Room[^] - but enter at your own risk.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen. For those discussions where you wish to be a little more frank, use the Soapbox[^]
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

According to History of Windows Store: Total number of apps, there are 800,000 windows store app now.
I am contemplating to do a UWP app in my own free time. I am good in C++. But standard C++ support is still in beta. And C# UWP does not have directx support. So I am kinda stuck with C++/CX.
Some of the old tutorials I read still mentioned Metro and Windows 8.
Any advice for me?

Thanks mate! I'm going to spend Sunday, going through your UWP articles!
Thanks again!

Thank you for checking out my articles. Hope they help to give a start in the right direction.
If you get a chance, let me know what you think. Thanks.

You might want to also put the books etc. in your profile bio as well, as no one would know if you didn't tell them. Just a thought. It could be there already, I just didn't find it.

I can't see it in the mirror: I am down on my knees, giving thanks for this blessing ! [^]

Try to eat some garlic. If you don't like it very much, your 'blessing' means that you have become a vampire. Do you have an urge to wear a cloak and speak with a Romanian accent lately?
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Or try put your glasses back on

Put 'em glasses where? Dude, the head has disappeared!

I have always wanted to be a vampire except for the stuff with blood, and I admit to finding Romanian women fascinating. However, I love garlic.

I enjoy it in food, but I wouldn't want to marry one. If nothing else, the kids would be bullied.

My message thread in the C# forum on hashing passwords is gone. The whole thread has disappeared. Can any see it? I can't.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
Everything makes sense in someone's mind.
Ya can't fix stupid.

I had a case where my answer ended up being duplicated, and then someone said I should not answer twice, and then both answers disappeared. Maybe a software glitch and they deleted one and so deleted both, just like I added on solution and it ended up being duplicated.

My message in the C++ forum also disappeared.
I'd rather be phishing!

Looks like a few boards have been restored from back-ups circa 17 June, 2018.

I hate it when things like that happen. I don't need anything else that causes me to doubt my sanity.

We just switched over to a new Redis server and the cache will take a couple of minutes to get back up to date.
