Yeah, i dont know why, my PC is core i7 with 16gb of RAM but when using VS2012, all the process is slower than VS2010, so i really hate it

Been there so many times. I have no clue why they force the user to follow them painfully. Windows updates screen is an eternal enemy for me.

This should have been coded by a trainee software developer at Microsoft and QA might not have had enough time to go through it and the product got released RTM.

VS2013 has that dialog, although it says 'required' instead of 'background', which makes a little more sense. My guess is that the person who coded that dialog didn't really grasp the 'background operation' concept. I also don't see the dialog as often as I did with VS2012 (where pretty much any action would cause it to pop up).

Apparently, Happy software developers solve problems better[^]
At least they used the correct number of developers for the test:
Quote: We report a study with 42 participants to investigate the relationship between the affective states, creativity, and analytical problem-solving skills of software developers. The results offer support for the claim that happy developers are indeed better problem solvers in terms of their analytical abilities.

..lots of words to explain how they proved the open door to be open. And yes, asking whether someone is happy is a form of "measuring" and totoally non-subjective.

The boss was there while they 'measured' the happiness of the developers?
No doubt a very subjective test...

Stumbled across a couple of videos where they have put video cameras down thousands of feet into oil and gas wells.
I was surprised at actually how much detail can be seen, and they can see all the different problems and general characters of the wells. You can see the differnt perforations feeding in the oil/gas/water, failed corroded casings, dropped tools etc. etc.
Certainly not what I was expecting to see, I expected darkness...

I wonder what current hardware could do. There are bad VHS tracking artifacts on that of the sort I haven't seen since my parents bought a better VCR in the early 90s...

Reluctantly I posted a C# question in the C# forum. I wonder if there is an answer to be found? To be honest, I believe that if I get anything it will be merely links to the LINQ answer which I specifically asked not to receive.
yes, this is a blatant promotion for a programming question I asked in the C# forum. Down vote at will : )

I was tempted to reply with "Use LINQ" but found an alternate target for my day before the holiday boredom.

Doesn't look like a C# question. Is there a Mongo forum? 
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Unfortunately, it is a C# question since I can do it in Mongo just fine : (, it is specifically the C# library itself.
