Microsoft has dominated the 'office productivity' tools market for decades and is a de facto way of working in most companies. Having significantly held back innovation in the last 10 years, Office is arguably reaching the end of its useful life as modern digital tools make it look like an old bureaucratic anachronism. Hyperbole is the BEST THING EVER!

Removing the traditional menu was a great move to promote LibreOffice.

It is just that I use Word twice a year, and don't want to learn the ribbon each times.

Wasn't Office meant to be at the End Of Its Life 10 years ago?

Got a startup idea? That and some cash is all you need to get a fully functional app built for you by Gigster. Launching today, Gigster is full-service development shop, rather than a marketplace where you have to manage the talent you find.
But can you trust them?

We previously announced that we were working on support for Edit and Continue for both x86 and x64 in the default debug engine in Visual Studio 2015. "What witchcraft is this?"

Huh, that feature was in VS 2005. Did I miss something?
|
|
|
|

Improved, and also supports x64.
Or, from the summary of TFA:
Quote: In summary, we discussed that Edit and Continue is now available for C++ applications including x64 without the need to change debug engines which means you still have access to features like natvis and async call stacks while using EnC!

I thought it was "never talk about it"

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

zeroth rule: "What happens in the code stays in the code"
If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

I don't like it.
It includes a bunch of nonsense about pandering to people who are "offended". Claiming to be offended should not be a powerful weapon.
