Discussion groups are supposed to be transient, so archiving them just seems wrong.
It'd be like archiving verbal discussions you have with people in the real world. If you discovered that someone was recording and storing your discussions with them, I imagine you'd be pretty pissed off.

Yes certainly, the only exception being discussions with the Mrs. (which will be stored and brought up at some arbitrary time in the future)

Can't argue with that her.

The Lounge is a universe that uses a different cosmological constant than the other universes here.
In the Lounge, time's one-way arrow travels without a wake; hence there is no past, and all previous posts are mere collective fantasies, shadows of our human tendency to manufacture memories to suit motivation, context, and then collude to anoint those memories as "reality."
In the QA forums however, the universes there have a continuously circular dimension of time; all messages appear again and again, even though they are posted by different people. Some might call this re-incarnation, or, "what goes around comes around."
I would call it: "the persistence of meaningless," but, I'm a poet, and can't help thinking like that.
cheers, Bill

Hello fellow coders!
You might have read my claim that I was working on a new serializer.
You might have your doubts.
Doubt no more, preview is publicly available here:
GitHub - superlloyd/Galador.Reflection[^]
Some polishing fill follow (such as implementing the GenerateCSharpCode() method), as well as a CodeProject article soon. Anytime now. (anytime in a few week that is...  )
As a side note the code also has a handy POCO property path watcher!

Looking great Lloyd.
That GenerateCSharpCode() will be the feature I'm looking forward to  Every serializer I've written in the last 5 years must have that. I've found that to be the easiest way to handle changing file versions over time.
Is it binary compatible with anything else? I'm assuming no, just curious.

Thanks!
As to GenerateCSharpdCode().. it is useful for 3rd party data.
For your own data, you use your own classes! 
You change you property as you see fit, no worry!
(new property, or property with a different name just won't be deserialized, obviously..., although.. not that I think of it.. might have a way to specify the serialiier's property name...)

Hi Phil,
Internet back up!
So, replying from my PC.. no.. it is not compatible with anything else. It is my own made up format...
Oopsie..

I notice that you post many of your new items as "News"?? Are you doing this just to get a listing under "Latest News"?
I believe "Latest News" is for actual news items, listed in the media. It is not intended for CP users to extend links to other, more personal, postings!
I really think you should limit News Items to actual media news items.

I'm with you on that.

That is indeed an interesting topic. Where lies the difference between mere reposting of media "news", provided by news agencies, and creating our very own news? He talked about it previously, and it is something new added so it is at least close to the border of "news".

Your complaint is dully noted.
I am not sure how I could check the accepted nomenclature, except by tediously poring manually over the last many threads or so...
In the mean time I will endeavour to exercise restraint!

Amazing game! Unbelievable that they're through to the semi-finals! 
I came into this game for the action, the excitement. Go anywhere, travel light, get in, get out, wherever there's trouble, a man alone. Now they got the whole country sectioned off, you can't make a move without a form.

In purely related news I've spent the last 3.5 hours trying to get a copy of a rails site I did a bit of maintenance work on 2 years ago running locally without the assistance of the primary developer (who's on vacation).
Could be worse I suppose, my frustration levels haven't reached the point of classic: System Of A Down - Elephant The System [^]
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
