If Spiderman was blown to pieces by a bomb, would he be all over the web?

I Marvel at your thoughts, they are just too comical!

wouldn't it be easier to just smoosh him with a rolled up magazine?
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

you haven't lived until you've used a dictionary keyed by collections of collections.

Oh what's so bad about it? The nested collection equality comparison? or the nested gethashcode function?

Actually, I wrote one of those as well just recently 
Anyway, it's a great key, in the same way a key on your cars paintwork is a great key

but did you nest it within another one? *raises eyebrow*
the fact that i had to makes me want to puke
You should see my _LRItemSetComparer class. It's awful.
I had to put progress reporting on this algorithm. It's CPU intensive.

So you should also report the [CPU] cost of the progress reporting!

It's dependent more on the reportee than the reporter since it implements System.IProgress<T>
All it does is fire the Report() method periodically with a status and a count. It takes very little CPU, not even enough to measure.
The implementer of the Report() method takes that info and does something with it - updating the console output, or a progress bar, or whatever. That's where the CPU is.
It's the invoker that does the actual progress display when I call Report()

Wow, never seen that before, but I checked and it's right there in my intellisense!
One of the downsides of knowing exactly what code to type is that I'm never browsing through my intellisense anymore, maybe I should do so more often

I only found out about it a few days ago. I was looking for the async await patterns having to do with progress reporting and there it was.
However, it doesn't depend on async anything. But the async stuff typically consumes IProgress<t>

I've seen the leading underscore in the class name and I'm already feeling nauseous
|

i always name my private members with leading underscores to avoid collisions in derived classes for reasons having to do with a limitation of .NET's metadata**
Even when those members are themselves classes, if they are not to be accessed outside the class they are declared in they are effectively private, and so they get their leading underscore.

Do you realize I regularly wake up screaming from bad nightmares about your lack of braces and leading underscores?
If I come across as grumpy it's because I'm tired and it's all your fault.
I'm too tired to even get up and get my torch and pitchfork...

I have a reason for everything i do.
The leading underscores are to prevent potential name collisions in derived classes.
The lack of braces is to drive you to drink.
Everything has a purpose.

At least they still use braces on loops.
for(int ic=Count,i=0;i<ic;++i)
{
foreach(var kvp in this[i])
{
if (!nts.Contains(kvp.Value.Left))
nts.Add(kvp.Value.Left);
}
}
Personally I do this:
for(int ic=Count,i=0;i<ic;++i)
foreach(var kvp in this[i])
if (!nts.Contains(kvp.Value.Left))
nts.Add(kvp.Value.Left);
Now tremble before me 
Really though, I only do it to force a mindfulness of what you're doing if you modify it. Adding braces effectively changes what the statement is saying. Braces: for(x) do zero or more statements; no braces: for(x) do exactly one statement.

That's exactly what I do and what i am being disciplined for.
