So at that point my comment was on-topic and yours are still way off.
So basically you don't understand two things:
1) that.net point-version updates are in-place, overwrite previous point versions of that major release, and don't increase update times, and... 2) how to follow thread ancestry on Slashdot.
The you're in the wrong freaking thread. This one is discussing whether or not update times are increased by adding a new point-version of.net (clue: it doesn't). This isn't a major release, so you're completely off-topic. Well done.
facepalm. Yes older versions will get updates, but if you're running newer versions your won't get the patches for the older versions. How hard is it to understand?
You should just remove 'ask slashdot' from your feed 'cos pretty much every possible question can be answered better by Google than it can be by slashdot. Alternatively if you're genuinely interested in what other geeks have to say about a particular subject and not just so you can write pompous remarks to people trying to start a discussion, stick around.
using the term IMAX to describe something that isn't IMAX is something that they would need to contest for fear of them losing their trademark in the future. that's the thing with trademarks, you have to vigorously defend them, even in cases you really don't care that much about, otherwise you lose them.
No, objective-c is apple's VB - a shitty language that everyone was more-or-less forced to use long ago if they wanted to use their platform (cocoa/office).
I'd say swift is more like apple's C# - a modern language that everyone (including mocrosoft) wishes every VB/objc developer would switch to. Asap.
actually, the compiler front-end (parser, etc...) is multi-threaded inside cl.exe which is usually passed multiple source files in one execution.
the back-end of the compiler (code-gen), which is actually run inside link.exe is also multi-threaded.
this is not parallel make, you get both levels of multi-threadedness from a single compiler command-line instantiation. Visual Studio does have project-level parallelism, but that's in addition to what's in the compiler/linker.
however, i do believe that the resulting layout of the PE is eventually deterministic.
The whole learnstorm thing was fundamentally flawed. You earned points in the competition by completing "mastery" challenges, of which there are a limited number. However, if you had completed most or all of the available mastery challenges before the competition had started then you were at a distinct disadvantage during the competition.
Yeah and that AC was responding to MM'S post about increased update times:

No. I was responding to mightyMartian.troll.
Yes. Older major versions. Not older point versions of the same major version.

Ugh. You CANNOT have more than one 4.x version of .net installed. If you install 4.6 then 4.5 is UNINSTALLED. therefore no increase in patches.
Or, you could just BC...

black people are apes. as are while people.
not gorillas, though. that's just way off.
we're much closer to chimpanzees.

I like Apple propaganda. And hypnotoad.

yuk, i try to steer clear of obese mystics.
Rubbish. .NET was designed as an application development environment to replace VB/Java and COM+, not C++.

many countries temporarily banned naked short selling after the 2008 crisis, until they realized that it did more harm than good.

They already got paid. They're just waiting for their options to vest.

you two are speaking different languages. but you're making a judgement call as to which is better, and you haven't justified that position.
I'm sorry but any article on ship naming that doesn't include GSVs, GCUs, ROUs and Very Fast Pickets is severely lacking in gravitas.
The problem with the tardis is that it's always breaking down. Both Death Stars performed flawlessly first try.
The alternative is that nobody gets to watch paid content on the web - it's tv or nothing. Is that progress?
