My limited experience with VS2010 told me to skip that version and wait for VS2012 which is a lot better (performance wise).
(I just wish we could goto VS2013 instead, but are limited by 3rd party libraries).
I'd rather be phishing!

If it ain't broke, don't replace it.
Whether or not you'll encounter bugs depends on what you do with it.
I use 2010 at home and never had any trouble with it. At work I do a lot of SSIS, and encountered problems in 2008, 2010, and 2012; that's just the nature of the beast.

I use VS2010 for C# development at home and it works well. However, I'm limited to .NET 4.

That is reassuring, I only tend to write stuff to interface to hardware in C# not really much else!

I upgraded from VS2008 to VS2010 a long time ago and haven't regretted it for a moment. I tried VS2012 when it came out and removed it from my system in short order. I will stick with VS2010 as long as possible and then probably go to VS2017 or whatever it is called, if necessary. I expect to be using VS2010 for a long time yet. For what I do, it just works, mostly.

We have been on 2010 for some time and I manage to crash it every couple of days, I have to reboot at least every day otherwise the systems grinds to a halt. This is probably due to VS negotiating with every AV product known to man that is inflicted on my system .
I find 2012 dramatically faster when starting up and 2013 about the same which may be due to better AV handling

Interesting article, makes sense that intelligence agency would use that sort of thing to recruit!

As these hackers got more and more into it, the CIA and NSA were tracking them more and more carefully. If the two organizations were doing something covertly, what better way to distract the best hackers by releasing a puzzle for them to waste time on.

Great find Dalek Dave, would love to have seen +Fravia's attempt. Though sadly, that wont happen.
It reminds me of a similar challenge I tried years ago. Think I got as far as about 6 or 7 steps out of the 30. I'll have to see if I can find a link to it, if indeed the pages are still online.
EDIT: Found it and it's still active!
Try this on for size people: "The hardest riddle on the Internet"[^] (I got emailed a link to it in 2008, not sure how old it was then)
Thanks for the fascinating read.

Fascinating, thanks, Dave !
"What Turing gave us for the first time (and without Turing you just couldn't do any of this) is he gave us a way of thinking about and taking seriously and thinking in a disciplined way about phenomena that have, as I like to say, trillions of moving parts.
Until the late 20th century, nobody knew how to take seriously a machine with a trillion moving parts. It's just mind-boggling." Daniel C. Dennett

I'm more intrigued by the links in the 'More from Telegraph' section at the bottom of the article.
