    Griff, I read your lounge message the other day about that 10 GB update for Visual Studio and today I read [this report](https://www.digitalocean.com/currents/december-2019/) about open source projects by Digital Ocean. This part of **Generational Expectations for Open Source Maintenance** section was interesting.

    Open Source 2019 Q4 report:

    Younger generations want a faster pace for updates and maintenance, reflecting their general enthusiasm for the work being done in open source. Older Gen X and Boomers, who report higher feelings of burnout, take a less hurried approach. There is even a slight difference in who these generations believe should be responsible for maintenance in open source. We expect this gap to only widen until the time that Gen Z and Millennials make up the greater part of the community. In the meantime, there seem to be some generational gaps that need to be addressed. While the older generations’ attitudes towards big tech in open source could be construed as pessimism or distrust, it may just be a matter of experience — some have decades of veterancy compared to their younger colleagues. Overall, optimism remains high across age groups and younger generations can learn a lot from their more experienced community members.

    How is that 10 GB download coming?

    The shit I complain about It's like there ain't a cloud in the sky and it's raining out - Eminem ~! Firewall !~

        Back in Pakistan, due to slow internet speed, I could not afford to update my Visual Studio each time there was an update. Now, I am in Turkey so I try to do this as well. You know, why not. :laugh:

          Couple of minutes, was all. (50+Mb Fibre-to-cabinet connection) If you want to include someone, use the at-code system: and at-sign followed by the Username (not necessarily the same as the "Display name", your Display name is "Afzaal Ahmad Zeeshan", but your user name is "afzaal_ahmad_zeeshan"). If you do that, they get an email alert that you are talking to them. You can find the Username on the user homepage, top left corner, just below the DisplayName @afzaal_ahmad_zeeshan Just like that!
