Are the live costs in toronto so expensive as there in the US?
I mean not only rent, clothes or food. I mean as well school, medical insurance and so on

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

You guys over there make about twice the money I make (if not more).
However, my schooling was paid for the most part by the government. Debt when I got out of school was $0.
We have at least 20 paid free days (not counting about 10 holidays, and most people have more anyway). I have 25 + 10 from holidays.
When I get sick I get free (or cheap) healthcare (at the cost of about $80 a month). Also, my employer keeps paying my full salary for a few months, then a little less, and then the government takes over (or something like that).
When I get unemployed I get government money (after my boss paid me first).
Job security is pretty high here anyway, I probably couldn't be fired if I took a sh*t on my boss' desk!
I'm insured for practically everything (except health and car) for about $10 a month.
When I get old I get even more money.
Canada has something like that if I'm not mistaken.
What does America have, except higher salaries in some sectors?
In the end it all plays out I guess

Yeah sure, Europe, with its many countries, diverse cultures and rich history is London and Paris.
This is North America + 5 cities from 4 countries. That's not global at all (unless you're an American I guess)
|

|
|
It's vaguely more global than their "world series", I suppose.

As we hit this great milestone, I’m also excited to announce that Visual Studio 2017 will be released on March 7. Seems like it was only yesterday I was complaining about it
|

|
|
And a month after that there will be VS2017 Update 1 with the version M$ should have released.

Well...that might take more than one month.
Just because the code works, it doesn't mean that it is good code.

yeah, I was being optimistic...

Microsoft have posted the source for GraphEngine [^] on GitHub[^].
This is a clustered in-memory key:value storage solution

The Creators Update opens up a raft of new APIs: Microsoft wants developers to use them. Windows bug tracker? I think we're going to need a bigger boat.
|
|
|
|

I thought the windows bug tracker was a paper database, stored in boxes in an oil tanker that are dumped in the Atlantic three times a month.

Roger Anderson, a telecom consultant and owner of The Jolly Roger Telephone Company, built an army of human-sounding phone bots that stops telemarketers from harassing homes or business. I need this for meetings

This is awesome!

Um, don't know how to tell you this but I did this YEARS ago. It's still running 24x7 and I've jammed thousands of telemarketers. It records each one also. I even put some examples on YouTube. And my system is fully automated. It uses online database look-ups to determine if the call is spam or scam, you don't need to transfer calls to it.

At the bottom of the article there is a video... I think it is worth to see it full, but you can skip to the 9th minute to get to the good part.

Microsoft just gave developers a sneak peek at Project NEON, Microsoft's upcoming design language for Windows 10 that aims to add fluidity, animation and blur to apps and the operating system. Did they do a trademark search this time?
Doesn't look like it.

That's not a news article, its pure conjecture.

Well, my vista box will remain a vista box until it dies. It's local-network only, and it ain't broke, so who cares?
