I always wait. I think it started to show up when they introduced out-of-process designer in VS for WinForms.

Has anyone noticed that:This is a terrible news for me. From time to time I'm working on an old VB6 project, and Pinvoke saved me lots of times. Even when many apis does not have vb6 syntax there it was still a helpful hand.

A good mouseI use G502 for gaming for many years. The wheel kinda broke first. It does not scrolls up well. Maybe I should clean it. Everything else works fine.

Migrating VB6 applications to .NET?My company in a migration process from VB6 right now. First things first. I don't know anything about you application so anything said down here may not be relevant. My company have many million lines of code in VB6 and VBA compatible scripting language in the 3 main application. All of the are using the same core written in VB6. We started the migration 2.5 years ago. The process is like this. 1. Write a server side C# code and connect old UI to the new (C#, .NET Core 3.1, now upgraded to .NET 6). 1.1. Create core for "migrateable" components. 1.1.1. Connect server-side components to the old UI. 1.2. Migrate those components. 2. Create the new UI (C#, .NET 6, WPF). 2.1. Create core client-side components to show server-side components. 2.2. Migrate client-side UI components. 2.3. Create the tooling. Many processes are parallel. The smallest of the 3 main projects will be fully migrated at the end of this year. The second one is planned to be ready at the end of next year. Biggest biggest project is planned to be ready in 3 years (likely it will be 5 years). The good news is that whatever is migrated is used by the customers already.

Ultrawide monitor (for development) - flat or curved screen?I'm using 34inch 1000R curved monitor for a year now, and I love it. Previously I used two monitors, but lots of applications nowadays are optimized for bigger screens rather then two screens (ex. VSCode). Browsing web is weird, many web pages does not optimized for 34inch, so I wrote many custom css scripts for some of the most used ones. It's all good now.

Is VS 2022 ready for prime time?VS2022 have more problems with TFS and SCE then before, and of course older problems are not solved. I have problems building and COM registering dlls. Using VS2019 for that. I have problems with nesting files in Solution Explorer, it was solved in VS2019, and got broken in VS2022. Got some problems with ATL C++ project but that was fixed in an update. As you can see I'm not happy. Still, my org is trying to move some services to .NET 6 witch is not possible in VS2019.

So... Microsoft buys Activision Blizzard...1. Less competition now. 2. Bobby fount a way to get more money while his company was on a decline. 3. Some of the games could be saved, because many talents were leaving the company, and now it could be stopped. Maybe.
