No current plans to update.
Looked at a link of four things you should know to run W8. From "Start Me Up" to "where do I start?". Sound like if you have been using apps on a phone (I have not) you are good to go.

I do not fit the generalization.
..but then again, I'm also not attracted to blogs with a number in the title.

This
Random r = new Random();
do
{
double d = r.NextDouble();
double x = (d + 1) * 1070000000;
int y = (int)x;
if (y == -y)
break;
} while (true);
Console.WriteLine("Exit"); is an infinite loop.
However, this
Random r = new Random();
do
{
double d = r.NextDouble();
double x = (d + 1) * 1080000000;
int y = (int)x;
if (y == -y)
break;
} while (true);
Console.WriteLine("Exit"); terminates with probability 1 (try it, it exits quickly in practice).
Quiz: explain why
OK, some people got close, but.. it's trickier than that.
Take a look at the spec[^], 13.2.1:
o In an unchecked context, the conversion always succeeds, and proceeds as follows.
• The value is rounded towards zero to the nearest integral value. If this integral value is within
the range of the destination type, then this value is the result of the conversion.
• Otherwise, the result of the conversion is an unspecified value of the destination type. So why 0x8000000? Implementation details, but that's what it does - usually. Not always, for example:
Console.WriteLine(unchecked((int)1E100));
Prints 0.
On x64, the JIT compiler uses cvttsd2si[^] which gives 0x80000000 when the value is outside the range of an int.
On x86, IIRC the JIT compiler used to use fistp[^] ("the integer indefinite value" is 0x80000000) (using fistp is annoying because it requires you to change the rounding mode twice) but now it stores the double to memory and then uses cvttsd2si (at least in my tests). I'm not sure if it ever uses fisttp, but that would also give 0x80000000.

Because 80 isn't 79.
I thought we'd already established that.

Hm. Makes sense for French speaking people. Q is used quite a lot there, I guess...
And yeah. There are quite few pages on the web where you can use it

Or IDSPISPOPD (later IDCLIP), to save time.
Funny how the really important things always stay in your mind.

Hmm...(2-5/2) = -1.5, (3-5/2) = -1, therefore -1.5 != -1.0, meaning 2!=3, 79!=80 and wings stay on aeroplanes and it all falls apart, took two looks over to get it, am I right!
Dang someone post it before me! Leslie mode engaged !

I am glad you did not really think that 79=80.

Edit: You can't expect me to do algebra this early on a Monday morning.
Wait, it's the afternoon already?
Well, at least it's not Tuesday yet.

I don't know, I studied in France.
Anyway, in this part of the world, (a-b)^2 = a^2 + b^2 - 2ab.
If a=2 and b=5/2, (a-b)^2 = 4 + 25/4 + 2*2*5/2=4 + 25/4 + 10
If a=3 and b=5/2, (a-b)^2 = 9 + 25/4 + 2*3*5/2=4 + 25/4 + 15
