    Anyone notice that Pokemon Go is spreading like the Black Plague? I tend to keep an eye on the GitHub trends, just to see if any interesting libraries or algorithms come to light, and now, well... GitHub C# Projects trending monthly [^] Ten of the top twenty-five C# GitHub projects are Pokemon bots... This is really killing the signal-to-noise ratio. I mean, it's pretty much jamming the signal... With raspberry jam... And only one man would DARE give me the raspberry... LONE STAR! --Err, ok, sorry... Monday morning... Brain is in an odd state... Semi-obscure side-tracked references are likely to occur... Anyway... I was really hoping this thing was just a fad, and would die out in a couple weeks. I mean, Ingress was never this popular (I actually played that one for a short time)... But then, I said the same thing about Facebook, so apparently I'm always wrong when it comes to fads.

    Proud to have finally moved to the A-Ark. Which one are you in?

      Generally speaking, I've noticed that the stupider the fad, the longer it lasts. I don't think P/Go is quite as stupid as Farcebook, but it's pretty close... :~

        Which means that GitHub trends are useless, but probably Pokemon bot writing abilities will show on job description in the next few years...

            Don't knock Pokemon Go. I love nothing more than wandering the back streets, pissed at 3 a.m. on sun morning catching Pokemon just to see my sons face when he wakes me up in the morning to see what I caught for him.

                    I've got some bad news for you... Those things you were "catching"... Those weren't Pokemon... You should get tested.

                      Are you saying gonorrhea is not the name of a Pokemon?

                          Pokémon was popular when I was a kid about 18 years ago (and it taught me not to ride the bicycle inside :D). No way Pokémon is just a fad :D

                          Read my (free) ebook Object-Oriented Programming in C# Succinctly. Visit my blog at Sander's bits - Writing the code you need. Or read my articles here on CodeProject.

                          Simplicity is prerequisite for reliability. — Edsger W. Dijkstra
