Welcome back; glad to hear from ye, Keith, and congratulations-and-deepest-sympathies on your new work challenges.
It would interest me to know more about with-what/where-in (in Angular ? ... the "HTML5/CSS/JS stack" ?) you find issues with Windows. I am currently thinking that it's time I dip a toe into those shark-filled waters, and Angular is the flavor or choice, at the moment. But, I'm not sure if that will be Angular as-is, or Angular 2.0 always-on-the-horizon.
cheers, Bill

Nowhere there specifically - it's actually the build tooling we use: node and (especially) gulp.
Most of it isn't properly tested on Windows - I guess it's written by people on the exact environment whose name I dare not utter here. Specifically:
0. The Build is much slower on a similar spec name - the linters on the Win box take longer than m'colleagues whole build
1. The node environment blitzes the machine - 100% CPU, 100%time serving web pages
2. The command line has huge buffer issues - Iost a full day's effort fixing a unit test. The failure result I kept getting was actually from the first run, but kept showing up in subsequent runs.
3. File Watcher - the environment is mostly build & let the file watcher update - under windows it doesn't look like a new file is added to the watch, meaning a re-build. Not a biggie, but occasionally catches me out.

I look forward to seeing your Mac based articles. We need more of those.

Is a Mac based article when you write an article on your Windows laptop set on top of the Macbook? 
I'm sorry.. I'll get my coat.

I'll award a 5 just because I have food poisoning and my sense of humour is offline so I cannot be bothered to work out whether or not that deserved a chuckle.

Another angel, who had a golden censer MacBook Air, came and stood at the altar. He was given much incense iPhones to offer, with the prayers of all God's Jobs' people, on the golden altar in front of the throne.

Just a suggestion - what if we make it the other way round? Instead of answering, let someone (probably the winner from the previous day) set a random word and others set clues for it. After certain time, say 4-5 hours, the best one (the one the poster likes the most or with most upvotes), wins and the poster (who had set the clue) gets to set the word the next day.
That way if would give fair time for everyone.

Now, do your magic
if(this.signature != "")
{
MessageBox.Show("This is my signature: " + Environment.NewLine + signature);
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

It's a thought for a different type of game.
Might work...have a think for a while about rules and such like before you start it (gotta prevent the same guy posting it every day because he didn't like any of the answers etc.)
Not sure about the "Most upvotes" bit: sounds a bit like "fishing for rep points" and what do you do in the event of a tie? Doesn't it need balancing with "that's terrible" votes, which we can't do in the lounge?

Well, for me, your message show a post date of 4:17 AM.
While I could have solve this WSO CCC, at 4:17 AM my time, I was still sleeping...
Perhaps if the WSO CCC was delayed by 5 hours or so, others MAY have a chance to reply with an answer.
