It's the whole concept that's moronic, not the users.

I updated two manufacturer built PC's in place. One from 7 to 10, the other from 8.1. Running for some 4/5 months now with no problems.

years ago when I was doing Visual FoxPro I used to subscribe to Code Magazine[^].
Does anyone here read it? Do you get any real useful info from it?

I used to get a free subscription, I have no idea why. It actually had some decent articles in it.

Yup. Was a regular there for 15+ years. Some of the Code Magazine writers are/were members there, like Kevin Goff and Rod Paddock.

Thought so , I was ( still am at heart ) a Fox man ( my user name here might give it away ) a great language for its day, I worked on the largest liquidation in the world to date ( went on for nearly 23 years ) and most of the management / paymemt systems were written in Foxpro for Dos and latterly VFP and even later C# - great times - Remember Bonnie, Tamar, George et al

Yup, good times. Tamar was a great lecturer. George was a wise man. Bonnie helped me on some .Net stuff in the early days.

Why do hot dogs come in packs of 10, but hot dog buns come in packs of 8??

I'm working on an app that will have a component like DropBox. Since SignalR can maintain connections between clients and server, I'm using it to signal the server when a file is uploaded, then the server in turn notifies all clients.
Very simple to set up and use.
Question: Would you use this to send/receive query results as data sets?

Buy 8 packs of hot dogs, 10 packs of buns, and invite 80 79 friends for a BBQ. No leftovers.

Now why didn't I think I that?
oh ya, I don't have 79 friends.

Invite 8 very hungry friends? 
|
|

If you have 19 friends you could do this. Two hot dogs per person. The LCM of 8 and 10 is 40, not 80.

Ingenius!! Everytime I eat hotdogs from now on I will implement this waste-saving algorithm.

I think we could get by with 4 packs of hot dogs and 5 packs of buns. 38 friends. I will have two please.
