German chemical plant that makes a resin (PA-12), needed for a wide range of automotive parts and components, burns to the ground [^]

While I don't doubt that a difficult supply disruption will occur for that resin, it's more likely that a replacement for the resin will occur. Albeit causing an increase in cars and car parts.

As many as 200 automotive industry representatives were expected to meet at a secret location in the Detroit suburbs today, ...

I signed up for one of those group-buy sites and got this one in the mail today. Made me do a "spit take", to be honest!
Only $49 for Colon Hydrotherapy [^]
Mede me wonder if someone received this and actually went "WOW! Just what I was looking for! A professionally performed enema!"

I wonder if they rinse the fire hose off between usage?

And if they added something sweet smelling, it could be called cologne for your colon.

$49 is a ripoff. $5 worth of habaneros will clean you out just as well.

Consider this statement:
Because you create a ControlTemplate in XAML, you can change a control's appearance without writing any code.
Source: MSDN
I know that there is a difference between 'Markup' and 'Code'; however, the statement still seemed humorous to me because the phrase 'without writing any code' usually implies a designer or wizard - or ease of use - when in fact XAML can be quite involved.
Consider the following tiny snippet of XAML:
<ControlTemplate TargetType="ComboBox">
<Grid>
<Border x:Name="ContentPresenterBorder">
<Grid>
<ToggleButton x:Name="DropDownToggle"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" VerticalAlignment="Stretch"
Margin="-1" HorizontalContentAlignment="Right">
<Path x:Name="BtnArrow" Height="4" Width="8"
Stretch="Uniform" Margin="0,0,6,0" Fill="Black"
Data="F1 M 300,-190L 310,-190L 305,-183L 301,-190 Z " />
</ToggleButton>
<ContentPresenter x:Name="ContentPresenter" Margin="6,2,25,2">
<TextBlock Text=" " />
</ContentPresenter>
</Grid>
</Border>
<Popup x:Name="Popup">
<Border x:Name="PopupBorder"
HorizontalAlignment="Stretch" Height="Auto"
BorderThickness="{TemplateBinding BorderThickness}"
BorderBrush="Black" Background="White" CornerRadius="3">
<ScrollViewer x:Name="ScrollViewer" BorderThickness="0" Padding="1">
<ItemsPresenter/>
</ScrollViewer>
</Border>
</Popup>
</Grid>
</ControlTemplate>
Is the take away supposed to be: Thank heavens I was able to write that in XAML and didn't have to resort to writing any code. I just don't see the big relief here. The selling point: Do it without code is falling a bit flat.

Reading that hasn't changed my view that I was right to stick with WinForms.
|
|
|
|
|
Eloquent, and yet I am unconvinced. MS are still supporting MFC, so WinForms isn't going away, and I believe I will still be "singing this tune" for some time to come.
