Microsoft took that moment away from me. Now, there is this demon called "Intellisense" that will tell me what I did wrong almost before I do it. I have become a slave to this demon, obsessed with extinguishing it's Cylon-like red eye that peers at me from underneath even the most trivial of mistakes. And now, when I compile my code, I now longer have that joy of "compiled successfully" because even the mere idea of a failing is no longer possible under that watchful eye. And where there can be no pain of failure, there can also be no joy of success. Microsoft, I rue the day you brought these demon out of the depths of the digital hell otherwise known as Redmond. You have taken away my reason to live!

Nah, if people want don't want Intellisense, they should use a command line.

Nope. That just leads you into a false sense of security. You still have to run it to make sure it isn't gonna puke all over your system, which definitely bumps up against the "It compiles - SHIP IT!" paradigm.

Compiles mean nothing. This compiles:
static void Main(string[] args)
{
int x = 10;
int y = 0;
int z = x / y;
}

#include<stdio.h>
main()
{
}
Yes! It does compile with zero errors

All that means is that it is broken in ways that the compiler can't detect, so it's time to bash your head against the harder-to-find errors.

Wrong. When it runs successfully and does what it's meant to do without errors.

0 syntax errors. Correcting logic errors is still up to you, however.

This is only true if it isn't you first time building the code. If you get zero errors on the first try, paranoia begins.

I'm always fascinated by wondering what sort of cosmology / spirituality sentient life on other planets would come up with. Imagine living in a start cluster like that!

That would be interesting if it were true. It's only a "cluster" from our perspective. Those stars are actually quite far apart and rather as lonely as we are. Also some of those "stars" are likely whole galaxies.

A few weeks ago MS announced that they were expanding the W10 preview to a bunch of low end phones.
I've got a Lumia 520 that does double duty as a WP8 screw around with device, and as a music player that's cheap enough I'm not worried about accidentally smashing the screen of.
Now that the weather's finally improved enough for me to start using the giant treadmill under the blue ceiling again, I'm wondering if it's worth chancing a w10 upgrade on it or not.

Windows Phone 10 is officially coming to Lumia 520, so I think the preview will work just fine. Give it a go.

I know it's officially coming; otherwise I wouldn't've asked (like I didn't do a few months ago when they offered a build for a few high end phones). There's often a difference between minimum hardware requirements, and minimum hardware requirements to have a good experience. There's also the question of driver quality and other potential bugs. I know I can; I'm asking if anyone knows if it's a good idea or not.

After installing MVC5, the only new (MVC5) project option I have in VS2012 is "Empty MVC5 application". Is that all we get when we install that? Am I missing something?

You can try this :
devenv /installvstemplates
Ned to do that from an admin cmd console.
