    string keyToFind = "asdfgsd44rtgr";   Dictionary<string, object> dctTemp = GetDictionary();   object theObject = dctTemp.ToList().FirstOrDefault(x => x.key == keyToFind).Value;

    Should be:

    object theObject = GetDictionary()[keytoFind];

    will return null if it's not in there, and with a dictionary you can only add one unique Key per...See:

    using System.Collections.Generic;

    namespace ConsoleApplication2
    {
    class Program
    {
    static void Main(string[] args)
    {
    Class1.Sample();
    }
    static class Class1
    {
    private static Dictionary GetDictionary()
    {
    var retval = new Dictionary();
    retval.Add("asdfgsd44rtgr", "1");

    			//Throws Error
    			//System.ArgumentException was unhandled
    			//Message=An item with the same key has already been added.
    			//Source=mscorlib
    			//StackTrace: {ommitted}
    			retval.Add("asdfgsd44rtgr", "throws error");
    			return retval;
    		}
    		public static void Sample()
    		{
    			string keyToFind = "asdfgsd44rtgr";
    
    			Dictionary dctTemp = GetDictionary();
    
    			//object theObject = dctTemp.ToList().FirstOrDefault(x => x.Key == keyToFind).Value;
    			object theObject = GetDictionary()\[keyToFind\];
    		}
    
    
    	}
    
    }
    

    }

    IDK, Liferay just seems like it is going to have a lot of maintenance issues... unless your company is very good about restricting which bits of the open source project your developers work on... and then there are still things like reporting capabilities, mobile phone access.. cloud access.. that you get from sharepoint...???

  • Observing Schrodinger's cat [modified]
    E ely_bob

    using your argument there is actually a meta-duality in the the state of "observation".. the entropic knowledge that the cat has is equivalent to the knowledge of the observer as they are one in the same, however when the observer opens the box to measure the entropy is released and the system becomes slightly more ordered. because it is a closed system the net result is only one observation. -- once a quantum mechanics grad student... :-\

    Or the interview may have gone far better than you realized.

    I (am sadistic and mean,) pride myself on "breaking" an intervewee :suss: I like to see how people behave underr fairly stessfull situations when unrealistic goals have been set, so i will often be in charge of the Coding portion of the interview and after a few plesantries will ask the interviewee to show me how to do X where X is Way outa their league in complexity. and sit back and watch them "handel" the situation. It is a good sign if they ask a few questions before getting started, and or check with me to see if they understand the question. Then once they start "coding" I look for things like simple code, reusable code, will it work, have they trapped all the edge conditions, without exceptions, are they tackeling the problem with the right approach to coding this type of problem, do they meet the requirements etc... I've only had the question answered correct twice!, one was hired the other wasn't. However, a large number of people couldn't answer the question, and some of them were hired... :cool:

    I do some of the Interviewing for my company, I have never read a cover letter, I could care less about how well you can formulate a paragraph. Your time is best spent on your credentials and experience in your resume. Pointer: give some type of indication as to your level of experience with the technology for which your interviewing, as an interviewer the first red flag i try to find is just how blatently padded your resume is! Pointer: NEVER interview for position in language/technology x without having written a codeproject Article :-D ... No seriously if you haven't worked with the technology/language recently (within the last 3 months) open up you editer and whip out a little project using a new bit of learned info, that new panel, or graphichs widget etc... this will refresh the syntax in you mind for the interview, and give you a talking point.. "ohh I was playin arround with a rotating cloud tree widget this weekend." . .. makes for great small talk, and it shows your passionate about learning new Tech..

    At my place of employment favorites are: -someone walks away from an unlocked computer: Set background to Image of David Hasselhof[^] -- Find out who "Hoffed" you then -- put tape on their mouse sensor (clear celo works best) -- Switch their monitor cables (left to right etc.) -- Rotate the items symmetrically in their cube. My most favorite prank was to frame a guy for belittling me by "in his style" posting up disparaging remarks about myself, with the hopes that he would get called out on it... (unfortunately I was laughing to hard as my manager walked by... :doh: ) :cool:

    I think you should be careful with the "threading" option.. it's not something that get used very frequently outside of Lind, or delegates.. the System.Threading namespace would probably be out of scope.
