Do you think this guy[^] may be a Mac user?
He prefaces his little accident with - "I am the only one in this room professional enough, that I know of, that carries the Glock 40"...
On the plus side he did check with everyone else immediately after, the little accident, if they were ok.

That is why I develop web applications instead of applications that only target single operating systems, as in "there's an app for that".

I wouldn't even try to make CamoPicker into a web app, because to make it "cross platform", I wouldn't be able to use Silverlight. I had someone ask last night if a Linux version was going to be released.
This is surely a sign of the end times...

Maybe Silverlight has reached the "end of days" now that it is only viable for IE.

Forget Linux. Think tablets and smartphones. The mobile platform is quickly becoming the platform of choice to reach the largest number of people.
I don't target each system individually, I write a web application with 3 variations, full sized view model, medium sized view model for tablets, and small sized view model for mobi devices.
The code behind is the same only the view (a very thin view) changes.

http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/asia/northkorea/8977024/Kim-Jong-Un-named-supreme-commander-of-North-Korea.html[^].
This news reminded me of a fact about him I heard on TV or Radio a couple of days ago.
His father's theme song was, of course, I'm so ronery, Kim Jong Un's is I'm a little despot, short and stout.

I name him Incredible Tosser Un; Fat Porcine Un; Ugly Turd Un.
He has to be one of the ugliest people I've ever set eyes on. It astonishes me that the product of his parent's loins could spawn such a vile piece of filth as that Un.

It really wouldn't surprise me if he was responsible for his father's death.
Don't blame me. I voted for Chuck Norris.

Why isn't the US worried about "Democracy" in North Korea? May be it's time to invade.

Down at the in laws. They said their PC had stopped working and would I have a look.......
4 hours later.....its going again.
Looked like it stopped sort of working about 2 weeks ago. Eventually traced the problem to a faulty power line Ethernet bridge that was randomly dropping packets.
FIL had a spare, swapped out and everything's good again.
Time for the beer!
Merry Christmas. Ho Ho Fkn Ho.

Introduction
Before I begin, if you don't know what is PWCT it is abbreviation for (Programming Without Code Technology). A new programming language created by Mohamed El-Fayed to create applications without writing the code. It is one of the Visual Programming languages.
Background
Here is the link for more information: PWCT
The Point
The point is why we need something like this?
What will be fun and entertaining about programming if we don't write code?
In my opinion, our work (as programmers) have two fun parts (I mean fun for brain): Thinking for new algorithms and writing the code itself.
Let's think a little bit. What is the purpose?
As Mohammed said, it is to make everyday user create his own programs without previous knowledge of code.
WHAT????????????????
And what will we do? Selling groceries???????
You know something? In Egypt, it's been more than 2 years now while we are trying to form our own union for Egyptian programmers. And for what? It is for protecting us from any other outsiders. I mean here in Egypt any graduate from Business college, Medicine, Pharmacy, Engineering and even people who didn't complete their education can take some courses in C# or Java and Halaloia they are programmers!!!!!!!!!!!
I mean there is a big difference between a Computer Sciences graduate and those people. They don't study 'Data Structures', 'Algorithms', 'AI', .... etc. They just study how to code, how to deal with a database.
If you had a look on their apps you will find that they use only the Arrays in all their work. They don't know that there are things like 'Stack', 'Queue', 'List', 'Dictionary', ...etc.
But now? Here comes someone who says to them "Welcome all ignorant people. From today you ALL are programmers with PWCT".
And what makes me angry, that there are a lot of people who are happy with this. If you check the reviews on the home page of PWCT website you will understand what I mean. They made an interview with him in SourceForge!!!!!!!!!!
It cannot even be used for educational purposes. I mean a programmer must be educated and trained to write code from his first day, so he can love it.
If he started with dragging actions from a GUI he will be lazy to deal with code.
You can download the latest version and use it for only 5 minutes and I'm sure you will throw your laptop from the window.
I need to know your opinion about this new technology that will make us NOTHING!!!!!
