For God's sake respond you pile of crap named VS 2010. It's taking ages to delete 20 odd class files.
Feels better now.

I like the fact that you can organise your solution so that the poor ones are the odd files. Did you rename them to make it get like that.

It isn't an odds and evens issue..
It is the weird ones (odd ones) that he is deleting.
If they were great classes, then they would delete themselves immediately.

That was awesome. I hope you were not serious.

I wasn't being serious. It was purely word play.

Oh darn.
I was hoping we'd found a new naming convention for files.

Just think of the coding wars that would take place. You'd either be an even namer or an odd namer, and it would get very bitter, very quick.

The last typewriter[^] has been made in Britain.
Ok, they were a pain to correct, and a nuisance when it came to cut and paste, but they saved a lot of work, and they still affect us today - our keyboard layout goes right back to the early days of them.
So, shed a tear (probably of pain) if you ever used one, and if you didn't - now you can't!

I learnt to use a typewriter when I was but a wee lad. My father only stopped using his maybe five years ago when the mistakes started to outnumber the correct text.

And next to any typewriter would have been a bottle of Tipp-ex or correcting tape. I had two in my time and I fondly remember an IBM golfball typewriter which once and for all eliminated jammed keys and you could change the ball to one with a different typeface.
Trying to compile a typed page was an absolute bitch, however.

Your logic seems a bit flawed! Just because they are no longer manufactured doesn't mean you can't get them or even use them. Even if you couldn't get one in the UK you could get one from somewhere else on this planet. There are still plenty around, you know?
I'll chalk that up to being either under-caffeinated or maybe some sheep passing by the window of your study/workplace kind of distracted you.

Use a second hand typewriter? Do you know where those fingers have been?

You've got a valid point there. For all one knows they could have "touched" sheep and we all know how hard it is to get rid of wool grease, now don't we? You could try to rub it off with alcohol before you use it though. Just so you know, I was thinking of the typewriter.
Cheers!

Which would you prefer when coding, dark text on light background or light text on dark background?
|
|
|
|
|
Dark text, light background.
It's too Gothy otherwise.

Isn't old people used to code in light text dark background? 
|
|
|
|

Nope - the ink was dark, the parchment was light!

Light background during the day, dark at night. I never did work out why "night mode" wasn't built into OS themes from XP onwards.
