I live in the Netherlands and write applications for Dutch customers. I don't deal with time zones either...
As far as I know most of Europe that only writes for their own country doesn't.
It's an OO world.
public class SanderRossel : Lazy<Person>
{
public void DoWork()
{
throw new NotSupportedException();
}
}

In the Netherlands?
Which bit?
Curaçao? Aruba? Sint Maartin?
Surely they have several times zones.
In the Netherlands has something we in Britain do not have, a Land Border with France.
Aren't we lucky!

Most Dutchies don't even consider those as part of the Netherlands, me included...

Last time I checked the Netherlands doesn't have a border with France (or am I missing some obscure small piece of land that was annexed by them?) .
You might be thinking of Belgium (they are different country's you know )

There are many more comfortable climates where you do not need to deal with time zones for in country apps. Iceland is a little too close to Mother at her most aggressive for my taste.

I'd prefer the Caribbean.
Taime zones, Mon?
Tcha! Maybe tomorrow.

I seriously do not understand how this can be still be a bloody issue. Record using a proper date-time data type and format for the local time zone - 5pm in London == 12 noon in New York == 1862 in Paris.

And they havent to deal with "I18n".
But I really like to code for all people on earth

Okay, so I don't know how to post an image here - but lately, CP is regularly placing the advertising bar over the discussion text rather than in the orange background landing zone.
Any ideas to stop this irritating behavior? Donate to the hamsters?

No I believe there is some sort of trouble in CP. I opened a link to an article on CP and it gave me a total new layout, with black background color, where it must have been white.
And at the end of the page, there were 3 hamsters, telling me something went wrong.

Maybe provide your browser version. I haven't seen this from Opera v24.0.1558.61

good point - I use IE10. I'll have to see if it does it in chrome.
Note: it seems to do this when looking at an expanded discussion. Entering text like now - or looking at the discussion list does not do this.

I would never use an adblocker on CP. The ads pay for this site so we can benefit from it for free. Other sites on the other hand I use adblocker extensively.

What a stand up thing to do.
Let me ask you something, the ads only make Codeproject money if you click on them. Do you click on them? If not, then using Adblocker is not going to hurt Chris and the gang.

I do click on the ones that grab my attention, but definitely not all of them.

if the gerbils care...
- On Chrome, no display issues.
- Back to IE10, looking at the initial Lounge page, the ad lands in the orange zone at the bottom of the page.
- if I select an article to expand (I am using compact, very high, thread view, per page 10)
the ad does not seem to know the LZ moved.
- changed to 25 topics per page - same behavior.
Ha! Eureka! Changed spacing to Relaxed, and the correct behavior is back. gerbils take note.
