They check, but not so visible as before, and they offered also Win10 mostly for free. Better for MS to have Windows 10 on all machines rather than deal with a gazillion of legacy things. That's why they do not hassle the user as msoobe did previously.

Ubuntu To the Rescue -
Ubuntu To the RescueMost likely in those AV cases are either the hypervisor/boot protection, or (more likely) real time monitoring ("on access" feature). Temporary disabling real-time things (either if is disk access, firewall, web traffic) on the AV usually solves such things.

Ubuntu To the RescueExactly. Was restarting like 20 times (very nasty setup on that particular machine, a Lenovo laptop, with whitelist/blacklist on wifi adapters etc) and I died and resurrected with each reboot. But on the end the only thing not working was wifi on hackintosh (even with kernel patching), no other hassles. Truly my respect for Win32 guys was (again) on the roof.

A question for MAC OS users (update the OS)Most likely the processor will not be supported, but best contact a support rep from apple. If the machine is for net only, perhaps save the time (and money) and put some user-friendly linux on it, it should work.

Ubuntu To the RescueStopped working can be a million on things. There were issues with registration, upgrade to Win10? I installed 30 times last year and not a single one has failed. Especially a triple boot xubuntu/Windows 7 x64/Mac OS (hackintosh) and I was sweating during the upgrade of the (non-main) partition of Win7 to Win10 (boot loader is osx). All went perfectly.

What the hell Microsoft!?Tools > Options > Debugging > General for "Enable Diagnostic Tools while debugging" and "Show elapsed PerfTip when debugging" Text Editor > C/C++ > Advanced => Intellisense Auto Tune Max Cached Transation -> False Max Cached Translation Units -> 2 (my setting, not 15)

What the hell Microsoft!?VS2015 is a hog compared to VS2013 (which in itself was one, but better than 2010). Disable perftip, diagnostic tools and stuff like that. Limit also autocomplete background to 2 threads insteaf of maximum (15). Even the full debug symbols load (both MS and private), the browser we supply in the product - I'm talking about Bitdefender full consumer product - which in itself is CEF-based which 1.5+ GB .pdb just for one file, libcef.pdb and still is not that bad as perftip + diagtools.

New Agile termHydragile it is. Although, for the sake of correctitude, it should be Zerglingagile, or, for professionals, Lingagile.

Go 1.5 is out: Say goodbye to CShame on me, I guess, to took the bait.
-
Go 1.5 is out: Say goodbye to CI didn't imagine that anyways. But point taken - the title is at least misleading.
-
Go 1.5 is out: Say goodbye to CWho used Go for C anyways? Go is just another language to use when you are afraid of pointers. I suppose they have some form of pinvoke anyways :D

The pitfalls that you should always avoid when implementing AgileI don't remember this in bug reports, I'm afraid. And last time I searched for "agile" in a crash dump returned 0 rows as well.

Microsoft ignored focus group feedback about Clippy"Too masculine"? I never saw Clippy, but I suppose it wasn't modeled after Pete Steele or Manowar. Next complain I suppose will be "too gay", "too white", "not child friendly" and so many political incorrectness whining. I want my Clippy to look like a zerg hydralisk, crawl over caption bars - if those still exists, and hissing and spitting to programs attempting to write in %PROGRAMFILES%.

Introducing Mob programming: The best team technique you've (probably) never heard ofDoes this include torches, banners with "Burn the witches"? Note. *Nobody* will touch my 1997 keyboard which is still in use today.

Software developers are failing to implement crypto correctly, data revealsNobody got excited looking into PCCERT_CONTEXT. Last time I checked. Or XOR-ing with the tens of flags just to decide if a certificate is to be accepted or not.

The pitfalls that you should always avoid when implementing AgileHow about I want my project to be successful, not agile?

Why agile skills are more valuable than certificationsWow, there are skills now in agile? I thought knowledge, coding and delivering are skills. Not telling people what to do without having the slightest idea on what's on the corner.

CP website in sufferingConfirmation email address every month or more. And this while I'm logged in. Also, I cannot vote due to "You must have a confirmed email" blah blah. Which I just confirmed. Again. And again. And I'm member since 1999 with the same email and password. And pages are more slow to load each visit. (Different computers, company LAN, company laptop, personal laptop, 3 different OSes etc etc). Someone else encountering this confirmation email thing? (Which is by far the most annoying).
