    In visual studio go to Help -> "Add and remove help content" and that will allow you to download entire topics like .net 4.5 docs. You can even throw whatever you download on a net…

    You only need the pro version for plugins.. Although I haven't used express so I cannot speak on if it supports plugins too..

    Exactly my feelings about it. Being able to specify types, and having the compiler warn me of mistakes is a godsend when comparing it to just writing javascript. And when valid jav…

    It feels like using the mouse is the tradeoff for using Microsoft products. I use Visual Studio and SQL Sever at work, and they are such a productivity boost, but I hate how often …

    Agreed. I had searched for a couple minutes to make sure I was putting the bug in the right place when I reported it. And even then there was no great way to search that it wasn't …

    IE10 has a smaller chrome at the top than both Chrome, and Firefox. I hear you on the plugins though.

    There is a price for it right at the top. Granted, the page took ages to load (could just be the HN load though).

    The way you prevent cheating in a game like this is that the game itself runs on the server. The client side is merely showing a representation of the server state. If people want …

    win8 x64 didn't go down for me at that time.. Wonder what the difference is? I don't sync among devices, but for the people that it did crash for do you sync among devices? Maybe t…

    I disagree that needing to learn something is counter productive. They are simply extra capabilities, and you don't need to use them if you don't want to. I've been using visual st…

    The quoted line was from going back, editing, and even screwing that up. haha I can see what you're saying. I still feel like intuitive code == simpler, but we'll have to agree to …

    That is in no way simpler, only faster. I have no experience with writing for C64, but to me at a quick glance it makes little sense just skimming over that. Now take a language li…
