I have not seen it, but it sure sounds like his usual role[^].

His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Well, no surprise there then. I haven't seem it either, another one to add to the list then.

Both correct. Would you really claim a two day trip to Spitzbergen[^] for 14 people in December?

Yes. The place looks beautiful....and very, very remote. Nice.

In December you would not get to see very much of it. No daylight at all.

Now honestly. Have you ever seen such inspiring slaughter anywhere else? Imagine what they could have done with Cobra's and Apache's. Maybe a warthog or two.

Exactly how this was intended to be seen. Also one of the greatest failures to bring the intention to the audience. It's not a coincidence that they chose Wagner, just like some guys in brown uniforms. The fashion color 'turd' was shure popular among them. The problem is that those idiots were damn good when it came to making heroic propaganda. Emulating them has not quite worked out the way they thought.

Couldn't see this mentioned anywhere.
VB6 just got an important boost from Microsoft blogger Scott Hanselman. In his post (bit.ly/2rcPD0f), Hanselman shows how to configure a VB6 app to be hosted in the Windows 10 Store, using the Microsoft Desktop Bridge infrastructure and tools (bit.ly/2HFVzcc). That’s huge, as hosting an app in the store means that Microsoft is at least somewhat vouching for its compatibility and content. Potential purchasers perceive it as sort of a Good Computing Seal™
Real programmers rejoice!

"Real programmers" and "VB6" are not something I'd expect to see in the same sentence. Except when separated by "don't use" of course.

Haven't used VB6 in years. I have seen some appalling stuff written in it (functions called "UseThisOne", "ThisOneWorks" (it didn't) and "Fred2" (wonder what happened to Fred1 ?) together with your own personal favourite lots of "Resume Next" etc).

Win10, VB6, Fred2. See a pattern?

You have a language that you haven't seen appalling stuff written in?

|

Yes - APL. That could just be because I wouldn't know what appalling APL code looks like (or perhaps ALL APL looks appalling)

A post is not the same as support. VB6 has not been supported for a long time now. Anyone who still uses it, deserves it

I think support in this case means Microsoft tests the old code against new Windows versions. Don't know what they would do if it didn't work. Still, it is an excellent RAD language (Runaway After Deployment).

No, it doesn't, and no you don't.
VB6 is a dead language, and has never been excellent.

VB6? Was that the one that came with a chisel and a tablet of stone for an IDE?

I'm not positive that the chisel had been developed yet. VB6 wasn't up to that job.
