It is very highly ignorance, that higher rep members are welcome with such a post here and not noticed to read first the top of the page or explaining "Google is your friend" 
Nice sh*t

Google is great for specific questions, but when you're wanting a recommendation based on other people's experiences, Google is not the place to go. A forum like this is.

Yes of course Sir.

Remember you in case a low rep mem ask a Q like this here!

Because I prefer asking real professional/person instead of guestimate what is good on google.
I'd rather be phishing!

I started on winforms and decided to learn WPF.
Before I did so I read around a bit and what I read was that it's a steep learning curve.
I actually found that this book really helped me - Sams Teach Yourself WPF in 24 Hours (Sams Teach Yourself...in 24 Hours)[^]
...and yes it was a very steep learning curve for me, I was unable to bring very much from my winforms experience to bear on learning about xaml and binding.
I would advise against picking up bits here and there on various forums as there is a certain amount of background you need to know before you can do very much.
The good news is that it's a rewarding challenge and understanding the binding and xaml will be of use in other areas and other frameworks you will encounter.
[edit] LINQ is a bit more straightforward and some decent 101/essentials tutorials online should give you enough to start with, I use LINQ a lot nowadays as it simplifies a lot of nested/ienumerable logic[/edit]

If you get off watching screwdrivers in action, and cable routing, you'll certainly want to watch the entire show.

I'm afraid I've put together enough PCs in my time to know better than to expect to be entertained by watching others do just that.

Yes, December 15th, 1999.
There are two kinds of people in the world: those who can extrapolate from incomplete data.
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

Citation from BBC news ...
"In principle, if someone was able to... hack all the autonomous Teslas, they could say - I mean just as a prank - they could say 'send them all to Rhode Island' - across the United States.
"And that would be the end of Tesla, and there would be a lot of angry people in Rhode Island."
This is really scary ... but is it possible ?

Yes. Everything can be hacked.

Sure, why not? Do yours come in secure packages?

Yes a bag of flour can be hacked - by spreading it evenly through the air as an aerosol and igniting it, it makes a very effective explosive!

sounds like double hijacking - real hijacking by technological hijacking

Only if they are all pretty much there all ready: the Tesla range is less than 300 miles according to t'interwebs.

Personally I would rather this being a possibility for Audis.

XKCD did it first.

The keyword here is 'in principle'.

That's two words

I thought about that as I typed it, but the sentence 'the operative two words are...' doesn't really work.
