I noticed a GUID that got generated by our app for some stuff.
baa647b8...
I wonder if I'll ever see baadf00d....

Well yes, hex is written in upper case. But this is a GUID, which is frequently stored as a text string, and is case-sensitive. Google for upper/lower case GUID and you'll find all sorts of pain; some systems generate GUIDs in upper case, some in lower. For those database systems that have a field type of GUID, most will return their text form as upper case, but not necessarily all do. If in any doubt where your GUIDs are coming from (e.g. a URL querystring) always be aware when doing comparisons!

I do the UI's for our products, including the graphics. My graphic tool of choice has been Paint.NET[^] for a long time. Given that acuity in my left eye is poor and my right eye is a prosthetic, I've got the Windows mouse pointer size turned up fairly high. Using paint.net, I would lose the cross-hair cursor against the white background. I'd then have to move the mouse so that I could find the cursor against the gray area outside the image being edited, c-a-r-e-f-u-l-l-y move it back into the image, and get back to work.
The following change in paint.net 5.0.10 almost makes me cry:
- Fixed: All mouse cursors will now honor the Windows setting for adjusting the mouse pointer size
Such a small change for such a big improvement in the experience of using a favorite app.
You bet your ass I sent them a thank-you feedback message.

I've worked on code bases where I was tempted to change my coding font to Chiller[^]

At that size, natch.C# private int Double(int value)

I hope this works ...
[edit]No, it didn't - I didn't think it would work without the font installed. [/edit]

Yeah, I know. Arial is merely Helvetica with the serial numbers filed off.
I work in the commercial ink-jet printing business. You wouldn't believe how much crap we deal with because of fonts, data formats, printer language, and rendering issues.
