If we compare Windows and Web applications against following criteria
Insight of .NET and OS
Design Patterns
Logic development
Development of a fresher into a good developer
which one is better.
Most of the time, I prefer to write this :
if(isWelcome() == true){}
if(isWelcome() == false){}
instead of this
if(isWelcome()){}
if(!isWelcome()){}
Because I feel that it is easier to read (but I do understand that it doesn't make sense).
I would like to know if there is a common agreement about this practice. What most developer do? And I'm wondering if the compiler is doing the extra comparaison, or if it understand that it is useless.
I have installed Visual Studio Express Web Developer 2010 and boy it really slows my system down a lot. Is there a way to identify the services like SQL Server and set them to manual so I can avoid all my memory resources been occupied when not using Visual Studio? Is it just SQL Express the problem or are there any other things I should consider disabling in order to have a fast and reliable system when not using Visual Studio?
Thanks!
With the latest changes to the developer agreement by Apple, how inherant is the risk of using any kind of framework to develop Apps for devices now? Should shops risk using things like MonoTouch, Three20, Appcelerator since this change?

Using [NSScreen screens] I'm able to get all of the screens attached to the computer and their sizes, however I'm trying to find out their positions relative to each other (like in Arrangement in the Display preferences). Is there a way to do this? I've looked online and through the class references on Apple's developer site and found nothing. Thank you.
One of the major challenges for any java developer is try to keep in pace of development of the language and new tools. Java is evolving all the time and it happens often that I hear from a friend or colleague about some useful tool I had never heard of before.
I'd love to hear about how people find out when new java specs come out or an interesting, new tool is released? For example, what java blogs do you follow?
Looking for the things you install every time you do a fresh build and use either frequently or infrequently but it may be very novel and obscure and have a lot of value to a C++ developer's toolbox.
I am a web developer and usually use php/JS/mysql.
I have heard lot about python.
I have no idea where is python used and why it is used.
Just like
php/asp/cold fusion/.net/
are used to build websites
C, C++ , Java
are used to build software or desktop apps
Where does python stands from those langages
WHich is the thing whic can be done by python but not with those common languages
Are we reduced to ClickOnce to manage our application state for our users? We use Visual Patch currently. When our users update (we reproduced this) we get errors from the updated versions to our compiled versions. Since our developer state is not 'updated' with Visual Patch how can we monitor and eventual squash the various System.MethodNotFound, and System.NullReferenceException in our updated versions of our application?
What is a standardized alternative to window.location.href function? I was checking on w3schools.com that it is implemented in all major browsers so there's no problem but I'm rather curious how to do that properly.
From here is the statement that the function is not standardized: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/DOM/window.location
Thanks!
As every programmer knows tools are important and there is no tool more important for a developer than the IDE you use to code. In the last few years the IDE-s fall into standards and it is not common to see innovation in this area. What IDE-s you can recommend as innovative and what new ideas and paradigms they introduced?
First off these questions are related but do not fix my problem:

Hi,
since moving to Windows 7 (IIS 7.5), the debug assertions do not prompt a pop up dialog anymore.
I have tested this in a separate project, and noticed that they do work when using the integrated Visual Studio Developer server (Cassini) but they do not work when using IIS Web Server.
This is a big issue for us since we are counting on debug assertions to identify potential programming errors, so any help would be appreciated.
Thanks. Eyal.

Are you an iPhone developer using tools other than Objective-C for your coding (i.e. Phonegap, Unity3d, Monotouch, Corona or Titanium, etc?)

I am using a list to keep track of a number of custom Row objects as follows:
Public Rows As List(Of Row)()
Row has 2 properties, Key (a String) and Cells (an ArrayList).
I need to be able to sort each Row within Rows based on a developer defined index of the Cells ArrayList.
So for example based on the following Rows
Row1.Cells = ("b", "12")
Row2.Cells = ("a", "23")
Rows.Sort(0) would result in Row2 being first in the Rows list. What would be the best way of going about implementing this?
Thanks
Apple lists (http://developer.apple.com/samplecode/AudioQueueTest/listing1.html) as a quick demonstration of playing an audio file.
Is there a way to play an audio file with many less lines of code?
Can you?
I downloaded C# express and Web Developer Express but neither have the templates that all of the walkthroughs start from.
Is there any way I can get the template or do I HAVE to get the professional version.
Is there any good tutorial on how to get things installed and working on Mac OS X Snow Leopard? Also which tools do you use? TextMate? Or something else?
I am trying my first steps with RoR after years of ASP.NET development on Windows platform but I am getting curious to learn other things as well to become a better developer.
We were using FFmpeg which is free. And when a bug occurred that broke the system, a previous developer installed PandaStream.
My question is, what do you recommend for quality video encoders?
Is it best to stick with ffmpeg and keep it free, or does a small website really need a heavy duty service like Panda?
