A few days ago, I closed the laptop lid on my Toshiba and went to where I was going. It never came out of standby and as a result - had to cold power it. Unfortunately for me, I had Visual Studio open, and when I re-opened my solution - only 36 of the...

In the world of adopting .Net as a programming language of choice, the ultimate question is, "Where are the samples I can learn from". If you are reading this, you learned your basics maybe on your own or from some programing class, but you probably actually...
