    I just realized that my brain is going badly... After one year of development of web/Node apps, I'm going to think in a loosely/anarchy-way than my usual German-like/obsessive/strong-way. Anyone knows a good recreation/detox place to wash my brain off any JavaScript trace, and restore the faithful C# mentality?

            Just Do It. Read some of your older C# code. Find one change you would like to make. Make it. I have to change gears like this a lot. You get used to it. It is like talking Politics, and then switching to Religion at a party :-)))

                        To paraphrase John; “VB6 is no more. VB6 has ceased to be. VB6 expired and gone to meet its maker. This is a late language. It's a stiff. Bereft of life, it rests in peace. If you hadn't booted into that old VM, it would not run nor install. It's rung down the curtain and joined the choir invisible. This is an ex-language.”

                              I forgot to add the joke icon, for which I am sorry. And believe it or not, those who pay my salary still occasionally have me write programs in VB6 by request from our customers. I don't question their sanity. Truth be told I'm not afraid to code in VB6. :rolleyes:

                                  The license as far as I know didn't expire when MS decided to stop supporting VB6, it was valid when it was purchased through our MSDN account all those years ago. Correct me if I'm wrong, I don't think we are required to buy a new license for every project we code.

                                  I've tried to extoll the virtues of using current languages on current technology, but when the customer only has Betamax machines, they want Betamax videotapes. If you don't have them, they will go to someone who has Betamax tapes and spend their money there. VB6 is a dead language, I understand this... and I have migrated a few to C#, VB.NET and even to objective C. I think we are arguing the same point, I'm not saying VB6 is all that, I am saying I like getting paid. If it involves occasionally doing things in a manner I don't necessarily agree with I'll do it.

                                    I just realized that my brain is going badly... After one year of development of web/Node apps, I'm going to think in a loosely/anarchy-way than my usual German-like/obsessive/strong-way. Anyone knows a good recreation/detox place to wash my brain off any JavaScript trace, and restore the faithful C# mentality?

I think we are arguing the same point, I'm not saying VB6 is all that, I am saying I like getting paid. If it involves occasionally doing things in a manner I don't necessarily agree with I'll do it.

                                      It was broke, so I fixed it.

                                      Sometimes I forget I have the luxury to be picky. I will not sell cars with deprecated parts; even if the customer is paying, he is also paying for the best way to spend his money. Which might mean that the recommendation would be to spend more on hardware, or sign a contract to take liability for all the risks involved in using outdated technology :) ..and sorry for ruining the joke by taking the topic seriously

                                        I don't negotiate the deals, I just get the assignment and do the dirty work. :) Have a good weekend.
