Yes.

How did you apply for the job?

I heard there was a vacancy via myself, and then invited myself to an interview. Nice guy, nice interview - I met me in a pub and we talked it over while downing a few beers. A quick competence test, and discussion of salary, holiday, and perks (whatever I can get, none, and none) and I was in. Been here for ten years or so now, and not planning on leaving, though I can be a hard b@stard of a boss from time to time. The daily commute is nice and easy!

Good job.
When was the last time you asked for a raise from your boss
Hello World!

Apparently, I can have a raise when I prove I am a better coder than him...

I've found Nokia's DVLUP[^] site to be a great WP8 dev-community site that encourages wpdevs to create new apps & games & improve them by rewarding devs with prizes - gift cards, smartphones, tablets, advertising, xbox 360, and other cool stuff. This month Nokia added 20 countries in which DVLUP is now available. If yours is one of them, I recommend checking it out.

I will check that out when I get home from work. Ironically the website (at least the front page) does not seem very user friendly when I view it on my Lumia 920.

Meh, a programming language is a programming language (admittedly, IIRC, you have to manage your stack manually in Lua, but that's not that bad). I'd be more worried about learning the scriptable program's API.

I agree.
Lua is easy to learn, fast and powerful. Just remember that it is a loosely typed language.(That will bite you if you are not careful.)

There's 20 minutes until the closing bell and $MSFT is still up over 6% on the day - have I entered an alternate universe?

It was up 5+% last night (after hours) after their earnings announcement.

Yeah - I just can't believe it held for the whole day - finished up $2.01 (+5.96%). Maybe Wall Street is finally warming-up to Microsoft.

You're basically equating price with value. Here @CP we might see clearly where MS is heading, but for the average Joe it still is a 'safe bet'.

Well, actually, I'm equating Microsoft's stock price with whether I've entered an alternate universe, but I see your point.

My favorite isn't in the list.
It started with a warning that water has been detected in the hard drive. Then it announced that it was going to spin dry the disk. A series of clicks through the onboard speaker made a noise like a washing machine spinning up, held for a few seconds, then slowed to a stop. Finally it announced that the spin cycle was complete, and the water was gone, problem solved.

I'm editing some CSS and have
.content-item {
-webkit-transition: all linear 0.1s;
-moz-transition: all linear 0.1s;
-o-transition: all linear 0.1s;
transition: all linear 0.1s;
}
I wanted to change "all" to "opacity" so started editing the last (standard CSS) item. As I was editing the other entries for the browser specific versions were automatically updated:
.research .content-item {
-webkit-transition: opacity linear 0.1s;
-moz-transition: opacity linear 0.1s;
-o-transition: opacity linear 0.1s;
transition: opacity linear 0.1s;
}
That's so cool.
