I prefer snooker as I like a challenge.

I wish I could get around to playing snooker more often too.

looking at some of the posts took me back in time to when we first started this. That was a lot of fun...Man, we really needed the release from the Forums. Now it seems most of us are busy with other things and don't have time :(

Although I miss a lot of the people - obviously trujade, but also Derek, etc. I'll have to send Derek an email - see what he's up to]]> http://www.wecode.in/discussion/83/did-you-prefer-the-old-forums Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:17:06 -0500 etisoppo 83@/discussions http://www.wecode.in/discussion/110/get-rid-of-the-spammer Mon, 16 Nov 2009 06:10:01 -0500 Dig-Boy 110@/discussions

I thought it would be interesting to share with each other things about our coding history.

Things like why you got into it, or what got you interested in it? Did you take any classes in college, or self-taught? Is it for fun or a hobby, or is this a career for you?

We are all from such varied backgrounds, I find it fascinating that we all ended up answering questions on the Forum. And I don't believe anything happens by accident.]]> http://www.wecode.in/discussion/133/an-offer-you-can-turn-down Thu, 05 May 2011 03:10:58 -0400 Renee 133@/discussions
We hope to write a copy of of the VMS operating system for Intel processors. Im the 70's, 80's and 90's Digital was the number two computing company. In actuality there was only one company and that was Digital. I was a VMS developer in the late 80's and the early nineties. VMS was not a graphic operating system, it was "character oriented". But VMS had Decwindows and a viewer named motif for those thar had CRT's.

Digital or DEC did a 32 bit and a 64 bit operating system called alpha as well as RSX and RT-11 for the PDP-11 family which were 16 bit processors DEC made.

If you are interested, Please see me. There is definitely a DEC way of doing things. DEC was sold to Compact and then to HP. VMS was many years in the writing and had as many as 400 people. It was the best operating system at the time.

When you use NuGet to install a package, it copies the library files to your solution and automatically updates your project (add references, change config files, etc). If you remove a package, NuGet reverses whatever changes it made so that no clutter is left.

You can also code your own NuGet package and put it in NuGet gallery

How do you want it ?

Some alternatives in my mind-

1] setup a wordpress blog. New Question == New Blog post. Hold all comments for moderation. Allow comments that dont have answer in it. Allow answers later.
This is quite tedious.

2] Wiki- I didnt get How it will work. User's answers will still be visible to others. Please explain what you mean, along with live example if possible.

3] Custom Script - Will be like Challenge series. Much like hellboundhackers.org
User will register > will get list of challenges. He can post his answer. Admin/Challenge poster will accept answer > user will get some points.Instant acceptance of answer if question is choice based.
If User has some query, he can post on forums or can PM someone.
This will take some time.]]> http://www.wecode.in/discussion/113/moving-from-winforms-to-wpf Wed, 25 Nov 2009 10:19:31 -0500 Omie 113@/discussions

Please add any music related sites to this thread.

If you become a VIP GrooveShark member ( US$3 a month or US30 for a year ) you can also upload
tracks they don't have so other users can find those tracks to play in their favourite browser too!!

Grooveshark is not my website either, but I do like it!!
