Nice to see that the license manager on VS 2013 lives up to expectations. I regularly get the following error when firing up Visual Studio
This license will expire in 2147483647 days.
Your license has gone stale and must be updated.
Ah good, so it isn't expiring anytime soon then 
Clicking the "Check for an updated license" clears it for another month (or however long it is until it reappears again).
Think they forgot to do some testing around that feature...

That's because you are not logged in to your MSDN account... (top-right corner under the title bar).
The funny thing that we have a corporate license - so we all logged in with the same user...

I know that.
However the scenario should be better handled, I therefore class this as a bug. (Definitely not a feature!)

Be careful! They will fix it to -1!!!

2147483647, thats 2 ^ (32-1) -1, I wonder what the significance of that is!

There may have been a small amount of sarcasm in that statement.

MessageBox.Show(string.Format("This license will expire in {0} days.", daysToExpire));

Use your MSDN account to get a product code, enter that instead of renewing the license. End of problem.
We can program with only 1's, but if all you've got are zeros, you've got nothing.

Just received this from our IT support:
Quote: Rob keeps loosing connection to the exchange server.
I can run a continuous ping to this server whilst this is happening so therefore I wish to run an Office repair.
I have lost connection - Rob please reboot and call me when you have a moment, thanks,
Phil.

Working overtime one weekend my team leader needed to access information on another team member's email account while he was on holiday. She had his password changed so she coukld get into his mail, then sent him an email with the new password!

pure genius. I wonder how she got to be your boss
Microsoft ... the only place where VARIANT_TRUE != true

That's why she's a boss. To keep her away from serious business

I had an issue with my Enterprise IM and created a support ticket. When nobody from support contacted me for over 24 hours, I walked down to the floor where the support guys were located only to be told by one of them "I did not find you online since yesterday, I had been waiting for a confirmation from you through IM".
It was one of those "God, I do not want to live in this World..." moments

I know you don't get these very often, so please enjoy . And hi to everyone - forums look great these days.
my $select = "";
my (@fields) = ("field1", "field2", "field3", "field4", "field5", "field6", "field7", "field8", "field9", "field10", "field11", "field12", "field13", "field14", "field15", "field16", "field17", "field18");
foreach my $f (@fields)
{
$select .= "$f,";
}
chop $select;
For those unfamiliar, @name= array variable, $name = scalar variable. 'chop' is interpreted as a function call with the intentional side effect of removing the last character from the scalar you pass it.
As a bonus, plaintext strings surrounded by double quotes must be parsed by the interpreter (this is Perl) and variable names within them are replaced with values.

That is, he creates one big string containing the values of $field1 to $field18 separated by a comma?
