Weekly survey?
-
Why not ask if people are planning on developing for the iPad, and/or owning one ? Seems timely. Or ask 'why have you not bought a Mac yet ?' Answers: 1 - I have, I'm not stupid 2 - I like computers that crash 3 - It's an adventure wondering if Windows will work today 4 - I am related to Bill Gates 5 - I own MS shares, and I am trying desperately to get them to rise in value again 6 - I'm just dumb.

You've forg0t point 7. 7. I'm planning to do, so I don't have to hear Christian Graus whine on all the time.

Anyone have any ideas for a weekly survey? I have a few bubbling away but I figured you lot would surely have some burning questions you're aching to know the answer to. - average length of mouse cord - cable or wireless peripherals - Legal or A4 - Pencil or Pen The list is endless.

A4 is illegal now? :omg:
Personally, I love the idea that Raymond spends his nights posting bad regexs to mailing lists under the pseudonym of Jane Smith. He'd be like a super hero, only more nerdy and less useful. [Trevel]

Had to vote you a 5, thats rather ammusing. But Windows isnt that bad, its the third party SW that tends to kill it. Its too popular you see, and SW engineering for a popular device will always be of lower quality.
God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; the courage to change the things I can; and the wisdom to know the difference

It would be interesting to know what technology people would use to start a new RIA project with .Net. Ex: 1. Silverlight 2. ASP.Net 3. MVC and Javascript (jQuery, MooTools, etc) 4. Any other choices Pierre Boucher

Hey! I did that. Back in the 80's I was working on a simulation for the USAF that stipulated FORTRAN77. I wrote a translator for certain parts of the code that went from VAX FORTRAN to FORTRAN77 in DCL. Yes, it was ugly and a damned stupid thing to do. But it sure was fun...

Boxers or briefs Ginger or Mary Ann What languages have you programmed in (Assembly Cobol, PL/1, Fortran, Pascal, Ada, Lisp, C, C++, VB, C#) What was your first personal computer (Atari 400, Apple 1, Commodore 64, Pet, TRS-80, etc) When did you start programming *for a living* (probably have to use date ranges to keep it simple) During daylight hours, what can you see from the window nearest to your computer? (White sandy beaches, a tree, the sky, a city street, a handy cliff, I don't have a window)
