I am working on a project, and it contains a wrapper class for an interface (to add additional validation for things). I hadn't implemented the interface yet, and had the variable for the wrapped interface. When I went to use the 'implement interface' option, VS gave the option to implement it through the wrapped variable. Quite handy, I must say. Reduces the typing I need to do.

Personally, I don't see that as a good thing in itself.

It speeds things up quite well, once you are used to it - it does work out what you are trying to do pretty intelligently and suggest good code.

VS2022 has been integrating a lot of Jetbrains ReSharper functionality. You all think this is cool but I have seen most of this for years via ReSharper.

I believe that's been in there for some time. At least if I understand what you're talking about, I've used that for ages.
My favorite feature of 2022 is the fact that you can just smash tab over and over and it will bang out a program.

So, MS's version of Whitespace (programming language) - Wikipedia ?

I haven't really done much programming for quite some time (other than some Lua for the OpenComputers and CC:Tweaked mods for Minecraft).

Visual Studio 2025 won't have a UI at all. You simply have to install it, and then it uses Chat-GPT² to generate the code you would have written.

I rendered (typically anti-aliased) vector fonts and an entire monitor screen on a 128x64 .96" monochrome OLED display. The display is impractical for most purposes, including this. I could make it legible, but there's no way to discern between the temp and usage lines in just 2 colors.
There was really no other reason other than boredom and curiousity, but because of the way the display controller works I had to rearchitect my user interface library to support it. I'm glad I did while it's still in its infancy, because I broke a lot of code.
Sometimes that's a good thing, if it brings design limitations and flaws to the fore in the early stages of development so in this case, it was all worth the effort, even though I didn't expect the result to be usable, and did it on a lark.

Well you found an issue before it was shipped. I found an overflow bug that would have cost the company a small fortune, problem was the software had passed 'test' and was shoved in some subsea equipment. Put on a container ship and was mid sea when I found it. Told my Boss said well done, later in the day get a lecture that finding faults is not my responsibility and leave alone by the QA manager  . Thing went bang on the sea bed... Better to find bugs and squish while you can.

I'm curious; are these fonts TrueType?
Back in the long ago times when I messed with font rendering, TrueType gave you the option of storing pre-rendered hand-tweaked rasters in the font for selected resolutions and sizes. We had a vetted set of such fonts for our 120 dpi inkjet printer products.

Yes, but my tiny engine does not support the raster feature =( you have to make a lot of sacrifices on IoT. I may be able to add it though.

Hi All,
Happy Days, Sun is shining, I have got a test rig working, I know have a plastic skull shaped item sitting on my desk which has the trachea action(!). Am building a test rig for testing a product (Medical stuff), task with designing test rigs for a new product. Hit a error, went to lunch, came back cured it, device started work (with a grinding sound) Let out an Evil Laugh, followed by a "They said I was mad, but it's alive, alive I tell you". Look around the marketing types are looking at me with a WTF expression. I looked up said "Sorry" and went back to what I was doing... Please tell me I'm not the only one who does things like that.

One day, due to a construction accident the power went out on the part of the Microsoft campus where I was working, so I started running through the halls yelling that the GUID rollover bug came early.

I'm not gonna say that explains a lot, but, that explains a lot. 
I like the way you think.

There's a GUID rollover bug?!

Not happening until like the 31st century or something. We'll probably have wiped ourselves out by then.

... or upgraded to 256-bit UUIDs (Universally Unique IDs). That (~1077) would almost be enough to give every elementary particle in the Universe its own ID.

You do realize how many other universes you would need to consume to list them all?
