I had something like that once, quite a while ago, after updating my graphics driver. But it didn't persist beyond a reboot.

As an aside to @Codesavage message on google store TOS,
"ms buys github" ... what happens when ms decides:
- items on github violate their TOS, or
- usage of something from github could lead the user into violating ms TOS, or even
- if something on github promotes/advantages a competitors product over a ms product.
(allowing the last could be considered violation of responsibility to their shareholders)
sure, yes, ms have said they will play nice and are supposedly 'pro open, pro linux and others' - but that is nearly always only if:
it's running in a ms-windows [limited] [linux] environment (posb not native capable), or, even if it makes they underlying os irrelevant open source products become heavily reliant on underlying ms products / infrastructure - need ms proprietary dev tools and/or for release/deploy proprietary ms libs (IOW not ever native).
so, is ms really 'open source' friendly? or are they just leading developers into an 'open source' world that ms can one day easily shut down and charge money to turn it back on?
looking deeper into the way they are infiltrating open source it's nearly always to [deceptively] inject ms widgets and reliance on ms into everything that comes out.
heck, will even git itself remain accessible to open source git tools, or are they going to 'extend' proprietize that too?
"ms buys github" - I really hope people jump, but more likely laziness will prevail.
... and who knows what's next? buy CP and SO to 'even further support the community' [roll it into msdn and] monetize that too?
This internet thing is amazing! Letting people use it: worst idea ever!

As we did in the old times. Either we use Sourceforge or we host it ourselves.
Besides, Git as a tool sucks.

As github has always been a closed environment (i.e., it was funded by VC who had all the power), that could have happened at any time. I don't really see Microsoft taking a dump in the sandbox at any time.

The great thing about github is the code review features, and CI hooks (autotests etc). We are 30 devs in my company, for us it is a lot more than a just a repo.

MS is just fine with providing free and open-source material at the individual level as long as they can monetize it at the corporate level. That's been the business model for many, many years, and is exactly the business model that GitHub follows as well.

..you do realize they give away lots of stuff to developers? There's a community-edition IDE that works quite well, with free documentation on MSDN.
Yes, MS is open source friendly; at least, compared to the old MS where open source was viewed as an STD.

Hey! Guys I need your help!
Last week my app was deleted from Play Store, the claim was that it violates spam policy with repetetive content. I tried to get in touch with console, but they said that the app is banned from store again with claim of repetitive content. They did not explain where in my app the policy was violated, leaving me wondering, what just happened and what was wrong with my app. Can you guys please could maybe explain what could be wrong with the app, so that maybe hypothetically I could understand the ban.
This actually left me wondered that basically Google can do anything without any explanation, just say that the policy have been violated and point- ban from the store.

You need to look at what your app is actually doing. It's unlikely that people here can guess why it is being rejected.

Oh sorry! It was bitcoin trading simulator for beginner investors, It was like school where people can learn to trade with real time trading simulator with no risk. It was basically an app that was based on our online platform-

Strange, when they have a problem with an app they usually explain quite well and provide links to their policy documents. Are you sure you didn't see those?
Repetitive content is a fancy word for spam.
Edit: An and if you have multiple apps on the store, make sure they are not the same content under a different app name. That is a violation.
Edit: I forgot, I heard about rare extreme cases they take down apps with excessive keyword spamming in the app description. You may review your app texts in the app store developer console.
throughout my life, my two greatest assets have been mental stability and being, like, really smart.

They just reffered to their spam policy without any specific explanation, but the thing was that we were only one on the app store that provided something like this. Plus we send a second letter that we would like to hear detailed explanation, what was wrong but they just said that they already explained everything.

It's their platform. Why are you not wondering the same over your own applications? What God-given right do users have with their apps, or are they depending on your good mood?

Actually "sed" uses the same format.

I just found this in a comment to a question:
Quote: ...because the code you show is absurd.
I know abstract classes, but have not yet heard officially of absurd classes, but I have seen many of them. Will we now need a new class modifier?
public absurd class Foo
{
public absurd void DoSomethingAbsurd();
}What will be the impact in terms of inheritance? Must absurd methods be overridden? Or may they not be overriden at all?
Edit: Will there be such a thing as purely absurd classes, where every method and property is declared as absurd?
Will the absurdity level someone mentioned below be the inheritance depth of absurd base classes?

Surely the method should return something absurd as well? It'd be absurd if it didn't. We'll need a new data type too!

I've seen a lot of this modifier in my time. Heck, I've been known to write a lot of code using absurd. BTW - it's a compiler switch which is probably why you've never seen it. It defaults to true.

Only in VS 2008 and below: in the later versions it has an "Absurdity Level" which runs from 0 to 10. The default is 10 for new QA projects.

Good idea to add this keyword to C++ and mark the Boost Library classes with it.
