If you wonder what your developers do all day, the Codealike extension provides some clues. "Working hard, or hardly working?"

Oh, the fun I could have with that! Imagine what the thing would do if you wrote a VS extension that randomly opened and closed every single file in a project solution, say, 10 times a second?

Combine it with AI (with doctorate of course) to write random, but intelligent (not artificial) code too - we all can go home for a beer...

Quote: One area where I can see the application being useful is for contractor billing, because it provides data on the amount of time spent on specific projects.
Even this seems like an overstatement because of:
Quote: Codealike provides lots of details on what a developer may be doing on a daily basis; however, no developer spends every minute working in their editor, so the "Outside the IDE" numbers may show they are not coding, but it doesn't indicate they were not productive.
At most I could see it having limited utility as an auditing tool; eg if someone claims to've spent 2 hours on project X and 6 on project Y; but this tool shows 3 hours working with X's solution, 2 hours on Y's solution, and 3 hours on the lounge trying to figure out how to baconize CListCtrl it suggests there might be a problem.
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?

Artificial Intelligence has been in the media a lot lately. So much so that it’s only a matter of time before it graduates to meaningless buzz word status like “big data” and “cloud.” Intelligence, nor artificial?

A matter of time? AI obtained buzzword status in the 80's, if not earlier. At this point, it has several doctorate degrees.

A former Apple engineer appeared in court on Friday as the final witness of an antitrust case involving the iPod and iTunes ecosystem, saying he worked on an internal project meant to box out competing digital stores and media players.

It is just like locking the door on yourself and not letting yourself interact with other people. And yet, believing you are going to lock others outside!
Apple, Oh well... any sentence beyond this would be a biased one. You know!

One of this week's Patch Tuesday updates for Windows 7 has been withdrawn after some users discovered that it blocked installation of software containing digital signatures, including first- and third-party software, and even other Windows updates. I guess it was supposed to ship later? (Near the end of Weven support?)

Or maybe the updates don't want users to update the systems at all.
I remember, 2 weeks ago I re-installed Windows 8 thinking this time I will get more space for my projects, and it was like 13GB free space after installing all of my required softwares (such as Visual Studio, MS SQL Server Express, Eclipse and JDK etc), and just after 2 days I recieved a notification saying "Restart to finish installing updates...". That was an unlucky moment, because just in 27 minutes, it left only 4GB of the space on my harddisk.
Now, I hate updates!

If your system is running fine and you don't experience any problems after updating, you can cleanup your installation from time to time using the DISM tool to regain some space.
Dism /online /Cleanup-Image /StartComponentCleanup /ResetBase ...is your friend here. More info on TechNet[^].
Especially after a new installation with an older ISO release and dozens of updates downloaded and applied it makes a difference.

Folks seem to enjoy pointing out that I use printf in many of my examples of “modern C++”, as if printf is not really proper C++. Apparently, I should be using cout. If it ain't broke...

 Use what works. The older the better. Stay portable. Don't use the latest thing simply because it's the latest thing.
