It's a safety measure, just like having to depress the clutch peddle before you can start the car.
These safety features were introduced in (I think) the late 70's/early 80's. My gen 1 Mustangs didn't have these features.

Sorry John, but how does this differ from what i said?

if(!string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(_signature))

}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("404-Signature not found");
}

I don't see how it's even close to being the same at all.

It's depressing to see that depressing can also mean to press... (Putting the foot on the pedal)

Just do it quicker and skid the car round by pulling on the handbrake

Happy to be of help.

You know, I'm usually known for my programming tips. I think this is the first time I've ever been cited for providing a useful mechanical tip -- definitely not my area of expertise. Funny thing is, the double-clutch thing I actually learned from a friend of mine when I was 20 or so...and HE was much more mechanically-wise, haha.

What surprises me is that you were shifting into reverse gear without your foot on the brake. When shifting from neutral into 1st or reverse, surely you have to have the brakes applied?

Earlier this AM, I sent that to the company's CEO - really.
Worst case? He'll realize it's me and just shake his head. (I hope)

When I worked at Bell South they had a policy prohibiting the posting of Dilbert cartoons on the cubicle walls. Anything else was fine, just not Dilbert.
I think that pretty much tells the whole story.

At work a colleague has started using NHibernate, an ORM (Object-relational mapping), before this we only used hand-coded SQL routines.
I wonder if this is a good choice, we are using VS2017, mainly C# and PostgreSQL.
The database is fairly simple, only about 20 tables, but speed and performance are important factors.

I take it you are speaking from experience with NHibernate ?
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can still use stored procs (at least with EF - don't know about NHibernate). Marc Clifton has a post below about EF. We are starting with EF Core 2 - supposedly a big advance on previous versions in terms of speed and usage - too early to tell if that is the case.
Keep your friends close. Keep Kill your enemies closer.

I first used ORMs about 20 years ago. I have been saddled with trying out various ones over the intervening years. My advice, if you have to go ORM, roll your own because at least then it might do what you want and not get in the way.
