On a beautiful summer's day, two English tourists were driving through Wales.
At Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch, they stopped for lunch, and one of the tourists asked the waitress "Before we order, I wonder if you could settle an argument for us".
Can you pronounce where we are, very, very, very slowly?"
The girl leaned over and said "Burrr-Gurrr-King"

I was taught how to pronounce that by someone Welsh many sheep moons ago. It is one of those utterly useless skills that people possess. 
|
|
|
|
|
Being Welsh is a skill? Well I suppose there's all the phlegm to contend with.
|
|
|
|
|
I guess it's the staying part that makes people despair.

I have never had trouble pronouncing Burger King.

Wow! Didn't know that was the actual name of a place. 
I believe PsuedoGriff lives in Ystradgynlais - something that I can't pronounce in the first attempt. So I think you could have used that in the joke just fine. 
Your time will come, if you let it be right.

This one occurred for my client:
This object file does not define any previously undefined public symbols, so it will not be used by any link operation that consumes this library (LNK4221)
I thought it amusing because of the triple negative: does not / undefined / will not.
Then I got to poke around and looked up the last of the fatal compiler errors, C1905:
Front end and back end not compatible
Yeah, I've experienced that.

I got the following error using a third-party collection once:
"Fatal rear-end insertion malfunction"
(I was getting an item from the collection)
Also (From a physics simulator):
"Fatal: double penetration == NaN!"
There are a lot of bizarre errors out there.
From Windows 8.1 Update 1 (Right after logging in):
"Fatal Error: Sh*t on a shingle!"
(Don't ask. I don't know.)
What do you get when you cross a joke with a rhetorical question?

"All of the public symbols in this object file have been previously defined, so this object file will not be used by any link operation that includes this library."
Karnaugh maps to the grammatical rescue.

This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.

As we read yesterday, Microsoft has open-sourced CoreCLR on Linux.
it can run Windows Console application.
I wonder when we can run full Windows Form Application? I have a Window Application and waiting for this opportunity.

It was already possible for some time.
Download Mono.

But how easy to build installer and deploy to client machines?

So, the great innovation of CoreCLR is the installer?
Linux is a different beast then Windows, and some things will be different, regardless of your installer. AFAIK, the installer is also not part of a programming-language, runtime or framework.
Even if you use "Path.Combine" to build a path to a text-file (so you get the correct separators) instead of hardcoding to some "C:\Program Files\MyStuff.txt", you'd still have to account for a different newline in a text-file.

if I remember corretly, to deploy .NET application on client machine, it needs some DLLs from Mono to be deployed too. If CoreCLR resolves these extra DLLs, the deployment will be simpler.

Mono comes with a runtime that needs be installed.
CoreCLR will come with a runtime that needs be installed.
.NET on Windows even needs assemblies to be installed on the target machine - the entire framework, and all other stuff you reference.
And yes, there are some distros that will already contain Mono when installed. I doubt that will be true yet for CoreCLR.

I thought Mono relied on Wine. Even a simple TreeView didn't work right in Wine. I'll take a look though.

Mono draws the WinForms controls itself. No Wine needed. It does so using a custom implementation of GDI/GDI+.

Ah. I'll have to try this code that I have then in Mono. Thanks for educating me.

From what I know, it works, but not all that well. And MWF (Managed.Windows.Forms) is kinda stalled. You may want to use MMA (Mono Migration Analyzer) to see if your codebase would even be portable.
