In visual studio go to Help -> "Add and remove help content" and that will allow you to download entire topics like .net 4.5 docs. You can even throw whatever you download on a network, and anyone can access it from there rathe

Why? All you need to know is the grid width\height, and whether a grid coord is empty. All of which is shown in the example.

For me I like static typing because it adds a sanity check of the data getting passed around. Sure, most of the time it catches nothing, but it is nice when it does. Humans will always make mistakes, so static typing improves the amount o

You only need the pro version for plugins.. Although I haven't used express so I cannot speak on if it supports plugins too..

Exactly my feelings about it. Being able to specify types, and having the compiler warn me of mistakes is a godsend when comparing it to just writing javascript. And when valid javascript is valid typescript, it seems odd to not opt to use

It feels like using the mouse is the tradeoff for using Microsoft products. I use Visual Studio and SQL Sever at work, and they are such a productivity boost, but I hate how often I have to use the mouse. The problem is many of the benefi

Agreed. I had searched for a couple minutes to make sure I was putting the bug in the right place when I reported it. And even then there was no great way to search that it wasn't a duplicate considering how easy it is for forum posts

I think it's just a matter of what's deemed important. I posted a bug on the forums, got a reply, and within the next update it was fixed.

IE10 has a smaller chrome at the top than both Chrome, and Firefox. I hear you on the plugins though.

There is a price for it right at the top. Granted, the page took ages to load (could just be the HN load though).

The way you prevent cheating in a game like this is that the game itself runs on the server. The client side is merely showing a representation of the server state. If people want to edit the scripts to show an invalid state who cares. G

win8 x64 didn't go down for me at that time.. Wonder what the difference is? I don't sync among devices, but for the people that it did crash for do you sync among devices? Maybe that has something to do with it?

No GP but, personally I don't feel it's as good as the VS debugger. Unless I am missing something you still have to type into the console to get the value of things you want instead of just hovering over things, or bringing up quick watch

I disagree that needing to learn something is counter productive. They are simply extra capabilities, and you don't need to use them if you don't want to. I've been using visual studio for a few years now an I still out of the blue find a

Just because there are more verbose languages, it doesn't take away from how verbose Java is.

The quoted line was from going back, editing, and even screwing that up. haha I can see what you're saying. I still feel like intuitive code == simpler, but we'll have to agree to disagree. This has made me more interested in diving in and

That is in no way simpler, only faster. I have no experience with writing for C64, but to me at a quick glance it makes little sense just skimming over that. Now take a language like RoR which I have never used. I can easily look at it an

What is wrong with data binding? I only know the basics of it but I find it pretty useful. Is there something I am missing?

For me the biggest reason is speed. I use visual studio at work and love it, but when I am at home writing javascript. All those extra features just make it such a slow experience.

Definitely see your point. During my time in college I only used Linux also. Now I work for a niche company where using C# allows us to get a lot done very quickly for the size of the company, and it's efficiency for getting stuff done is

Are you redrawing every time to the invisible canvas, or are you saving the data, and just pushing that to the screen? I'm not entirely sure if this is plausible for you situation, but take the event of a game like mario. The ground on th

Are you currently prerendering to a separate canvas? Drawing it to a different (hidden) canvas, grabbing the image data, and just pushing that to the actual canvas might be a bit performance boost.
