So, few hours earlier I made this[^] post bragging about my Rep point being a certain prime number and also expressed my joy of being able to hop over as many prime numbers as possible.
A kind hearted gentleman turned my wish into reality by taking the pain and effort to down vote my answers and posts as many as ten and as old as a few years ago. And no, he's not a newbie or a sock puppet account, each of his down vote set me back by -16 points. Being a person with positive thinking, I assume he wanted to give me the joy of experiencing the same prime number again. Thank you gentleman

The first rule of Reputation Points is, "don't talk about Reputation Points".
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

Who cares? My reputation here on CP can't be any worse than in "real life".

Don't take it to hard - it's a ritual. You can find endless cases where someone down-voted answers in a row. Me to had it a few weeks ago. The only one can catch such a 'pure soul' is CP staff, but I think they have other things to do...
So rant here to spill the bad feeling, than really try to enjoy your prime numbers - you deserve it!
I'm not questioning your powers of observation; I'm merely remarking upon the paradox of asking a masked man who he is. (V)

Too bad it was gone again the second you posted that 
It's an OO world.

I'm starting a new project that will be using the latest and greatest stuff from MS. MVC, Web API, ASP.NET Identity ...
I want to test base on the Business Requirements, hence the BDD approach. The step I'm at now, before I write too much code, is selecting the tools to create and execute the tests.
Because the current version of MVC (5) still has a dependency on System.Web, it is easier to drive the browser than mock up the static objects needed to properly test the controllers and views. Plus testing controllers and views is implementation testing not requirement testing.
I have pretty much decided on using SpecFlow for the creation of the test stubs and execution of the tests.
I believe the current practical Browser Automation tools boil down to WaitN, Selenium and MS Code UI Tests.
Does anyone have experience, recommendations or warning on these or other tools that might make my life easier and the product wonderful?

Damn, it was knowledge of time travelers that caused the 'Problem'. I've caused the very thing I was sent back to prevent.

I used to work with Ranorex for any kind uf UI tests, and I believe their Browser Automation is pretty great, too.

IMHO getting a trial copy and just have a look at it is worth the time.

Saw this headline in the newspaper today, "US vs Portugal ESPNs highest rated non-football game"
I'm in the (can you guess the country?) but still it struck me as amusing, considering all the WC banter on this site.

I'd say the US as a whole is into sports and rather patriotic... you combine both and you get a great ratings.

While you're correct of course, I was refering to their use of the term 'non-football'. I would imagine that in most if not all other parts of the world that headline would be considered an egregious mistake.

An American I follow on twitter tweeted a couple of days ago something along the lines of "you know when a guy called Kevin starts work somewhere that already has a Kevin the new guy gets a nickname. That's why we call it soccer".

It is rather strange that we call American football, "football" at all given how little it has to do with kicking it nowadays.
|
|
|
|

There is a school of thought that football originally referred to sports played with a ball on foot, as opposed to on horseback.
The was very little use of the foot to propel the ball in the earliest forms of the game, and Australian Rules Football was codified at about the same time as Association Football (Soccer).

So while typing "<" I accidentally hit "M" and intelli-nonsense inserted the word "Manipulation".
I have never seen it before, so I looked it up[^].
"Manipulation Class - Contains methods to get and update information about a manipulation"
Clear as mud.
BTW, anyone ever used this class? What's it for (aside from the plain and obvious description on MSDN)?
If it's not broken, fix it until it is
