I am currently reading "C# 6.0 and the .NET 4.6 Framework" by Troelsen and Japikse
What a fantastic book! Jam packed with technicalities of C# and .NET - All 1600 pages of it. It starts at a beginners level, but quickly progresses to Advanced level stuff, that covers over a 1,000 pages.
I must admit I battle to cover more than 100 pages per day. There is so much to learn!

I've read Troelsen's older version of that book years ago, back when .NET 3.5 was still new. It's the only "big" C# book I've ever read from cover to cover. Good stuff.

Glad you mentioned that book, because I've been considering reading a new version of C# book.
In the past I read the Petzold, .NET Book Zero and the Jesse Liberty, Programming C#, but haven't really read one since 4.5 has been released.
I will definitely check it out.

You won't regret looking at it.

That is a great book !
I find the "The C# programming language" uniquely valuable because it's by the C# language principal implementors, and is full of fascinating comments ... in the form of call-outs (side-bars) ... from a who's-who of language gurus including: Abrams, Albahari, Liberty, Lippert, Sells, Skeet, and others.

«When I consider my brief span of life, swallowed up in an eternity before and after, the little space I fill, and even can see, engulfed in the infinite immensity of spaces of which I am ignorant, and which know me not, I am frightened, and am astonished at being here rather than there; for there is no reason why here rather than there, now rather than then.» Blaise Pascal

Now you've upset my reading apple cart. I was planning to read Skeet's "C# In Depth" next. In fact I already bought it some time ago. However it only covers C# 5. Looks like your suggestion can be better!

Don't forget to read the C# 7 version next!

I wish I could get a "C# 7 Delta" book. A book that just explains the differences between 6 and 7.

was about to buy it when looking at the cover, I seemed to recognize ... yes, I have C# 5.0 and the .NET 4.5 Framework. So, I think I'll start with that book....

You had a great book all the time and did not read it? That sounds sooo familiar. I often do the same.

I've gone through this problem since I created C'YaPass which makes it so you never have to memorize a password again -- yet it doesn't store passwords anywhere. Figure that one out.
Anyways, many sites do not allow long passwords (one gov't student loan web site only allows 16 -- numerous others also).
Many sites require special chars, but my app (runs on Android, iOS, Windows and you can try the web app at: C'YaPass: Forget All Your Passwords | WebApp[^] ) creates 64 character random SHA256 hashes which become your actual password.
Anyways, sites that require things are just stupid for the most part because they do it without actually thinking about what they are really doing.

He has a point - there's something like 10 trillion (its a lot anyway) fewer combinations of numbers and letters if you force 8 characters and one of them must be a capital!

Hi all,
Working with windows 10 for some time now and I'm more than happy with it.
I can see three problems at least in my installation:
1. Cursor looks too small in office 2016 applications (Word, Excel...) in all the other places it looks normal.
2. When I press the windows key the menu opens always at the first display no matter which display I'm working at the moment... I would love having the menu open in the current display (where the mouse or focus is).
3. Edge doesn't allow me to add more "top sites".
Anyone knows how to solve any of those issues? (please without the fun part of recommending using Linux neither installing a proper browser).
Thank you all!

Just 3 annoyances?

I read your subject as "I am using Windows 10 and Windows 3 and there are annoyances."
Geez, what could be annoying in Windows 3?

1) Install Libreoffice.
2) As far as I know, you can't change this. I like it doing that, it provides a consistent location to "look for".
3) is easy: install Chrome. (This isn't "install a proper browser" because I'm yet to be convinced that Edge is a browser).
Bad command or file name. Bad, bad command! Sit! Stay! Staaaay...

Regarding that one, I don't know if it's because I installed Classic Start Menu, but it doesn't occur for me - the Windows key opens on whatever monitor has the currently focused app, as well on the monitor on which I click the Windows icon.

One of the clients, an automobile dealer, in his app wants a "cool" feature. The App is basically about providing information on the vehicle, owner, insurance dates , all info/documents . Anything related to the owner/vehicle.
Funny thing is they ask for a Flash light button on the main screen, so that people can use it when they open the boot or hood of the car. How insane. irrelevant. futile. funny! We are doing it.
