We all knew the scent of easy money would draw scammers to Kickstarter sooner or later, and it seems the first deliberate scam in the gaming category has been exposed. [ITworld]

Story and video.
DDR is a dancing game. The classroom edition allows a bunch of pads to connect to the same system, and students can carry around cards that give them individual stats, such as calories burned.
Would it be creepy if I showed up at a school asking to dance with them?

Can't tell if you are joking or are serious.
So, which one?
public class SysAdmin : Employee

public override void DoWork(IWorkItem workItem)
{
if (workItem.User.Type == UserType.NoLearn){
throw new NoIWillNotFixYourComputerException(new Luser(workItem.User));
}else{
base.DoWork(workItem);
}
}
}

Now please port C# to Android.

I'm surprised that no-one has ported either to JavaScript yet.

Dear FSM, it is the language that will eat the world, isn't it?

Actually, that one looks like C#->JS port tool. I'm just afraid of someone writing a full .NET compiler in JS, or a Linux clone. Only a matter of time.

The purpose of a GUID is, as the name implies, to uniquely identify something, so that we can refer to that thing by its identifier and have confidence that everyone can agree upon what thing we are referring to. Here's why it's useful... and problematic. A universally unique guide to GUIDs.

Spine and Backbone are two Javascript MVC frameworks that look very similar on the surface but under the hood there are key differences. The purpose of this article is to highlight these differences and hopefully make it easier to choose which framework fits your needs. Invertebrate frameworks need not apply.

I like how you made a pun out of that!

We report on the birth and evolution of Lua and discuss how it moved from a simple configuration language to a versatile, widely used language that supports extensible semantics, anonymous functions, full lexical scoping, proper tail calls, and coroutines. From Brazil, with love.

You've installed them. You've loved them. You've hated them. But have you ever lined them up to compare one version of the .NET Framework against the others? Here's one man's attempt at a framework to chart the history of .NET versions. What's in each version of .NET? Check this table for all the details.

He left out Extension Methods -- I guess it's bundled into:

I have been moving away from the object-oriented development principles that have made up the bulk of my 17 year career to date. More and more I am beginning to feel that objects have been a diversion away from building concise, well structured and reusable software. I realised that this isn’t a sudden switch in my thinking. The benefits of objects have been gradually declining over a long period of time. The way I use objects today is very different to how I used them when they were new and shiny. The agony and the ecstasy of OOP.

"Mutable state causes pain."
I mostly disagree; mutable state is a strength of OOP, but if you feel it causes pain that would certainly appear to be a sign that OOP is the wrong tool for what you are doing.
OOP is not the right tool for all jobs and one of the few things I don't like about C# is the "everything is an object" aspect.
Having said that, without mutable state, to start your car you would have to replace the engine with a running one.

Microsoft's $300 million investment in B&N's digital business is about more than ebooks. Much more. Or at least I hope so. Success in this venture will not be measured by sales of ebooks. Microsoft should instead use this as an opportunity to create an end-to-end consumer experience that rivals Apple's and has the advertising income potential to make Google jealous. If we're all on the same page, the synergies will surely follow.
