My boss should manage me ? Really?
I didn't know that. No wonder why he forgot about my existence and in the right moment, there are so much problems I should manage by myself
Microsoft ... the only place where VARIANT_TRUE != true

You may be waiting until you have to learn JavaScript, but maybe you should learn JavaScript to make you a better developer. Because we all need the joy of debugging prototype

But do me a favor - first learn some 'real' language (plain C I think)...

English doesn't hurt either although I hear that German is popular too.
Don't comment your code - it was hard to write, it should be hard to read!

There are indeed some german Forums, but I've made better experiences with English forums - They tend to be more "up to date" and only a small percentage of the pros are speaking German.

In high-Level languages I agree with you.
In PLC-Programming there is more material in german. Although quality is not always according to quantity.

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

My second point. Big problem for german forums (in fact, almost any language forum, except english maybe).

IBM and Toyota said Monday they will team up on a platform to develop the automaker's T-Connect telematics service.
With the move, IBM is in the middle of a series of partnerships and announcements as automakers race to offer better in-cockpit services. Google has its Open Auto Alliance. Apple is in the middle of in-car entertainment. BlackBerry's QNX platform is strong and Microsoft helped give Ford a lead with its Sync in-car system.

And the Crash-Test Dummies drive on!
And you think SkyNET will be a problem?
Just wait until RoadNET comes online (and pray yer darnedest it's not based on .NET! )

Haha true, but Road .NET would be a clever name

Microsoft has launched a new feedback site aimed at developers. "Missing Platform APIs" can be used by developers to make suggestions about desktop Windows APIs that are not yet available in the Store. This is an important new channel of communications which will undoubtedly be widely welcomed. Oh, this should be good. Who's making the popcorn?

Does this site connected to the same deaf Microsoft that every other developer channel was before?

I hope you're right, I posted a suggestion to allow using XAML/WinRT in desktop apps (native). I doubt very much they will listen.

Yeah I never got that, surely a version of WPF for WinRT would have made the whole thing much more appealing

What, you mean have two Microsoft technologies actually work together rather than inventing a new additional one? Oh look, a flock of pigs flying by...

I hope you're right.
Native development for Windows often feels like you're missing most of the goodness.

That *cough* was deliberate. Let's just leave it on that.

The decline of OS X Snow Leopard has accelerated in the last three months, perhaps because users have realized that Apple has stopped patching the 2009 operating system for the Mac. Compare and contrast with reaction to the end of support of XP (after 12 years)

REVISED: A "complaint" from a family member (which I've heard more than a dozen times. I'm the resident support help complaint department just because I "know" computers ...
================
The reason for this is that OS X 10.7 introduced "sandboxing" wherein only apps coming from the Mac App store would be available. If the app didn't adhere to sandboxing policies, it would not be granted access to key OS toolbox calls, I/O functions, etc., all in the name of "better security".
That's a bunch of BOVINE FECAL MATTER!!
That "better security" directly translates into "better FINANCIAL security" for Apple to charge developers to 'serve up' their app from the Mac App Store.
OS X 10.8 and OS X 10.9 increased the constraints of the "sandboxing" security features.
The apps I use, dating all the way back to 2000 when OS X 10.0 came out, don't work in OS X 10.7 or later due to sandboxing "security".
What this means for me is, I need to spend nearly $3,300 to upgrade all my apps, printer/scanner hardware, and a new Mac should I move to 10.7 or later, yet ...
THEY ALL WORK JUST FINE AS THEY ARE, THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!

So you've been paying the Apple tax for fourteen years and didn't see this coming?

Not me. Just complaining on behalf of a family member. Revised my post accordingly.
I'll be certain to pass along your question/response, though!!
