I know, but it is the best word to describe my impression after having used it several time. (And my customer who codes too would agree)
The idea is cool, but the experience is filled with gotcha's and wtf bugs, thus the word "immature" is appropriate.
If it stays immature considering the long time it has been around, there is two possible explanation : the skill of their developers is at question, or xamarin is focusing on something else now.
Don't get me wrong, I like xamarin for what it permits us to do. But Xamarin Forms made me hate my life as a developer.

Inspired by the thread two steps below.
Personally I find it beautiful, sort of (jump forward 55s). but if you're having a sensitive disposition you might want to postpone watching it[^] until after you've eaten.

I have installed Kaperasky on my Windows vista ultimate, but Windows defender still prompts me I have not scanned my computer for long time.
how are you guys handling windows defender even if you have internet security?

Yes, I am still using Windows Defender... Works well, because I try to not click on Pr0n ads so that they do not try to install or provide me with any viral software for my machine.
Internet has a lot of edges where you can gain unlimited access to virus and malware, but if you try to be careful, you can handle them. I am using Windows 8-based Windows Defender. I have not found any virus running on my machine... Since the very first day that I started my programming life.

Note that he is running Vista. I understand the Defender for Win versions before Win 8 is not as effective as the one you and I are running.

 and that is exactly why I mentioned by version of operating system.

Microsoft brought out a much more potent version of Defender for Windows 8 only. I am using Win 8.1 with only Defender for protection and have never felt the need for more. However, I do take basic precautions, like paying regular attention to my restore points and taking an image of my systems drive from time to time. This way avoids the processing overhead that any additional virus protection will require.

No need to defend a sandcastle. The 'nix machine does not need "Windows Defender".

Not only India brother... Same thing happens in Pakistan too, more specifically in province Sindh. All of the students here are being provided a great environment to cheat, to grow older and give their children the same lesson; To Cheat! http://www.pakistantoday.com.pk/2013/04/12/city/karachi/119-students-caught-cheating-in-metric-exams-in-sindh/[^]
I wonder why people here keep saying, "Our government is corrupt" when they all are corrupt, they cheat in their own circles, they cheat in their neighborhood and wherever they can. But still, we say, our government is corrupt. Government, why shouldn't be? When we're the ones who provide them the grounds to be corrupt and do what so ever they want to do. Then why complain it for government only.
We (Indo-Pak) people need to first guide ourself onto good path, before we should criticize the government, or even our neighbor. I just wish, that day comes soon.

Nope, I am writing a blog post (as a critic response to those who think CPU is better than brain) and an article about Binding in WPF; also trying it out in Visual Studio.

You great man. I met two great young Developers through CP One is Tadit Dash and you.
Don't you guys sleep ever?

I won't count myself as great, define great! I am just a beginner with some background and knowledge. Tadit Dash, of course he is a great developer... being a Microsoft MVP defines his greatness. 
Yes, we do sleep... But we sleep when no one is around, as soon as someone comes around, or a new email is received; my phone vibrates and doesn't ring because I don't like noise. I wake up, and get back on my laptop or I play football. It depends on how much isolated I remain; by isolation I mean all sort of isolation, isolation from people and other people specially emails.
Sure, there are quite a lot of blogs that I own and post content at, you can read all of the content here on CodeProject; articles and tips. Or you can have a look at, http://basicsofwebdevelopment.wordpress.com[^] where I post different coding structures and posts; such as framework how-to, guidance on some programming structure etc...
My own blog (about my own views) is at, http://afzaalahmadzeeshan.wordpress.com[^].

Yes, or probably to everyone. If we simply apply this to our self and improve our own self and let others do what they're doing... I believe majority of the problems and wars could be solved.

Corruption is largely a cultural phenomenon.
The question is though, does the people make the government corrupt or is it the opposite way around?
Toute nation a le gouvernement qu'elle mérite? <-- Question sign is my addition.

What was that definition of government?
Quote: Government of the people, by the people, for the people.
Now, tell me, isn't it the people who form the government? Since it is the people, then effectively... A corrupt public would always have a corrupt government, and public would try to complain about corruptness of government instead of trying to fix themself.

Very nice write-up.
Yes - they used to say that 'In a democracy, the people get the government they deserve'. True, indeed.
A statement from centuries ago is: 'Yathaa raajaa tathaa prajaah' (यथा राजा तथा प्रजाः) (Sanskrit for 'As is the king, so are the people').
This has changed to: 'Yathaa prajaah tathaa raajaa' (यथा प्रजाः तथा राजा)- 'As are the people, so is their king (ruler)'.

The only adequate response I have is not publishable in the lounge, and probably not the soapbox either.
