That doesn't look like ADA to me. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I didn't see a link from the usual suspects:
Aurora over Norway[^]
I might make that into one of my desktop backgrounds

This is something I have to go and see in my lifetime, been planing it for a long time, but money has been an issue until now.
I'm thinking of surprising my girlfriend with a trip, I know she would love to see it too

There's Matthew McConaughey in it, so that should be sufficient for her.

Well, if it's a vehicle for McConaughey and Hathaway, it might even be as good as Gravity.

'Tis true. Socket.IO is awesome. I absolutely love how easy it is to use.
var ns = io.of('/some-namespace');
ns.use(function(socket, next) {
if (authenticateFunction()) return next();
next(new Error('Unable to authenticate');
});
ns.on('connection', function(socket) {
socket.broadcast.emit('Another user connected');
});There's an awful lot going on in that code, but it doesn't take a lot to do it. In this, I've created a custom namespace for my Socket.IO connection, set up authentication on that namespace and then emitted a message about a new connected user to all authenticated users when the server receives a new connection.

where, oh, where does one obtain socket.io?

That must be one extreme (your post) - Love to hate in my thread below. And I do believe there was some other 'sucks' going on early in the day.

You're going to hate the love I show for TypeScript here as well. Models and business functions defined with TypeScript; combined with Socket.IO, Mongoose and MongoDB, this is pure goodness.

Well, I have never had such a headache as over the last week.
Following over from my mild rant at http://www.codeproject.com/Messages/4933791/Does-it-really-have-to-be-this-complicated.aspx[^]
I kept plugging along and eventually got data back to a winforms app over Windows Runtime from Bluetooth GATT messages. 70 bytes of horror chopped into <=20 byte packets.
Anyway, after getting data back, decoding and now understanding the message protocol, it is safe to say, until the official SDK for Windows is released, the beans are going back in their box.
There is just too much flakyness without full official SDK that it is just not worth the effort or the hassle. The SDK is due this month, but imagine the developers must be going through some pain!
Anyway, for anyone who wants to read about the pain, you can catch it in the article at the link below. The page maybe is a bit smudged and damp, but they are just tears and will soon dry

yeah, but mate, its all learning
I gave you a '5' for the article anyway, it was up to the usual standard, and just may help someone down the line

My latest project has been such fun for naming things. It is for submitting property listings (real estate sales) to a web service, but using data I get returned from another web service, so my code's main job is mapping input to output data structures. The required output is a Listing object, for a property, but my mapping code is dealing with lists of Listing properties.
Then, the bulk of data in a Listing object is held in an Attribute array. An attribute is a named value that helps describe a property. But, my property listing properties also have C# attributes. It has taken tremendous effort to overcome the temptation to leave in my wake classes with names like ListingPropertyAttributeList, used in heavily reflection driven code.
