I'm nearly up to it mentally, so I'll be back in play probably next week.

See what happens around here when you go AWOL? It all falls apart!
Also, if you can't get tomorrows then I think we are just going to have to call it and pull your plug. It's the kind thing to do.

I thought my last one wasn't too bad. It was just going to be a straight double definition, in which case it would've probably been solved within minutes, with the help of a dictionary if need be.
I did mention Werewolf2 being up today along with yesterday's answer, but he hasn't posted since his last CCC 6 days ago.

Well it was still too hard for me! Then again, I am not great at solving them anyway.
If Werewolf2 turns up then they can decide if they want to do it... but next full moon isn't until June so not holding much hope for that.

I'm not very good at them either, whether solving or setting!

As an outside observer, I detect a clear conspiracy. What?
Well I've seen a rumbling, now and then (see a rumbling because posts must be read) about how C has outlived its usefulness. That's the beginning of the tale. And some even tout that for C++.
Now, of course, you see it. Take 'C'; add a couple more C's (as in ++) and you have your CCC. There is clearly a movement afoot to usurp the position.
It may be, if you post something like PythonPythonPython it will receive better attention.
The only other logical alternative is something like CCC[^].
All that being said, as an outside observer I can only hypothesize. I don't even know how it's done/played/used. Also, by the time I get up in this beloved time zone, someone seems to have done with it whatever is supposed to be done.

Just got notified of VS update 16.6 - 2.31 GB ! insane

Perhaps because Windows Forms Designer for .NET Core Released | .NET Blog[^]?
It should be included in VS2019 v16.6.
2.31 GB is still a lot though.
Bigger than any WinForms project I could make, that's for sure
<edit>
Just updated mine and it's "only" 1.48 GB for me, going from 16.5.5 to 16.6.

Do you have any NuGet problem either with 16.5.5 or 16.6?

Nope, my only problem with 16.5.5 was that when I went to "View -> Other windows" (from the menu at the top) it would crash Visual Studio
It's not something I use a lot, but it happens.
In fact, it happened to me earlier this week, that's why I updated to 16.6 asap.
The problem seems to be fixed now.

Yeah, me too.
I still have one customer who has a WinForms application.
I didn't make it, but I'm maintaining it.
Just last week I wrote a Console app, it just need to check for some files to mail every few minutes and it HAD to run on a local Exchange server.
Other than that it's all web nowadays.
Although I did speak to a potential customer earlier this year who needed software to interface with (label)printers, scanners and possibly other hardware.
A web app isn't going to do that, so it's either WinForms or an alternative.
I don't really see the added value of WPF except that it can do some nice graphical stuff that I don't need, Java is out of the question, and I'm not sure if an alternative like Electron has the same maturity as WinForms.
The guy put everything on hold because of COVID-19, but if he ever decided to continue that project and I get to be the one that writes it, I may go for WinForms.

You'll probably be wanting all the NPM libraries bundled with your update I imagine...
Not everyone has a fast broadband, I am lucky enough to have 100Mbps download but I imagine most of the world has a much much slower download speed.

My experience with npm is that I've got 3 MB spread across 20,000 files.
That is NOT an exaggeration.

I am impressed with the small size, it is pretty amazing what minification can do.

definitely a case of coders riding on the shoa rtbus.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

You think that's insane? Hah! Try mine:
Visual Studio Community 2019
Update Version: 16.6.0
Download size: 4.17 GB
Progress: Not started
Current Version: 156.5.2
Last Updated: 4/1/2020
!
[edit]
And the first thing it tries to do when I click "Update"?
"Updating Visual Studio Installer" ...
[/edit]
Glad I wasn't planning on coding any time soon ...

I'm so glad I'm having to fiddle only with Visual Studio code.
|
|
|
|

As for me after downloading and installing the update, I open Visual Studio and it's still the same version as before. So I have to again download and install, this time it tells me I have to restart my computer.
I've had issues like that on 2 different computers, where I download and install VS and still it's not updated. What I would usually do is redownload the installer.

I thought for a moment they had rebranded WPF.
