Are you sure about version 6, or maybe you used Carbon-14 emissions to date it?
Just kidding...I also used version 6, but at that time Americas, Africa and Asia were a single land called Pangea.

I got out of programming when C# was introduced, a solid ten years ago. Just follow my authority rep curve, and you can trace my life back (I was active on the C++ forum back then, and was very experienced with MFC).
Honestly, I programmed this morning in three hours a .dll used in a third party tool, in C++, got it up und running without error on the first test (in Release !), so I am more than proud of myself. Seems like programming is like riding a bike, you never forget it.
There is no comparison with the improvement of the IDE and Intellisense and ... everything. I have seen a lot of people here bashing it, but my own first impression was very good. Maybe I am still in the euphoria of being allowed again to program

Awesome!
Today you made a huge step forward. Tomorrow, step your second one: forget C/C++ and join C#!
Still I'm wondering why there are so many "paleontologists" digging for solving the problems with C/C++...
Don't care what I'm saying...I just hate those messy languages...
Good luck, anyway!

Can you use the Community edition for commercial software development?
|
|
|
|
|
No, definitely not. It gets complicated if you try and find out if it is permitted to use it to do an add-on to a tool which helps creating data used in another tool that outputs a trajectory for a machine that produces a part of what your company is selling.
Some insight here[^]
Anyway, I am using it for private purposes, so I did not check the licensing thing.
/edit: I assumed commercial is not open source. If you sell open source software (Remember the guy who paid for WinRAR ? These people do exist !), you are allowed to use it.

Based on the responses on that link, it seems you can write commercial apps but not at the enterprise level. Example, Statefarm or McDonalds cannot do that, but Joe's Electrical Lighting can.

Cheryl has a birthday, and she doesn't want to share it right away. (Otherwise, we have no challenge to solve.)
So she gives her friends Albert and Bernard a list of 10 possible birthday dates: May 15, May 16, May 19, June 17, June 18, July 14, July 16, August 14, August 15 or August 17.
Cheryl then tells Albert and Bernard separately the month and the day of her birthday respectively.
We then have a conversation which progresses as below -
Albert: I don't know when Cheryl's birthday is, but I know that Bernard doesn't know too.
Bernard: At first I don't [sic] know when Cheryl's birthday is, but I know now.
Albert: Then I also know when Cheryl's birthday is.
So, it is possible to deduce Cheryl's birthday?
I'm surprised this was not posted here before. Its become fairly popular recently.
Of course, try to solve it without searching on the internet! Not much fun otherwise.

I could tell the answer just by looking at the problem - "Cheryl's Birthday".
I ain't got no signature.

Yes.

Here's another question:
Cheryl is 21 years older than her son. 6 years from now, she will be 5 times as old as him.
Question: where is the son's father?

Researching into time travel? Actually baby not born yet so probably just unaware.
One day I aspire to having a signature.

In jail, I hope...

Someone else told me the same answer once. He made a mistake in his calculation. I guess you did too.

Nah - I just don't like the guy...

I guess the answer you're looking for is "in her" (She's 20y3m old and the "baby" -9m)

I never got around to getting into the big deal about this - but as now it hit CP, I took a look. Not particularly difficulty (why was there such a (media/internet) fuss if this was the problem?) and yet a pleasant exercise as I rarely have time for these these days.
Presuming I got it right with July 16th, that is . . .

The big fuss was because it was set in a SAT style test for children 5 years younger than intended and all the little dears went home and cried to their over-protective parents who had failed to teach them that it was OK to admit that there are some things you can't do when you're 10 that you will be able to do when you're 15 and responded by attacking the education authorities rather than deal with their own lack of parenting skills.
