Microsoft 'ecosystem' owns 42 percent of IT | |
|
||
| Time: 02:00 EST/07:00 GMT | News Source: ZDNet Australia | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum | ||
|
Microsoft now has the data to prove how influential they are, with a new study showing they control over 40 percent of the IT industry. The software giant commissioned research company IDC to survey 82 countries and measure the economic impact of the IT industry, and Microsoft specifically. Overall, the results were not surprising, according to Craig Mundie, chief research and strategy officer at Microsoft. IT contributes to economic growth and job growth more than other industries, according to the IDC study. The study managed to quantify the Microsoft business universe. There are about 14 million people working at companies that touch Microsoft software in some way, either as hardware distributors, services companies, or software developers. | ||

| what, are you allergic to illustrating nesting levels via indenting? |
| #29 By 37047 (99.241.37.218) at 10/19/2007 5:29:06 PM |

#28: There is nesting in the original. And when I go into edit mode, the indenting is still there. For some reason, this site has stripped off all leading spaces. I am going to try again to format this bugger so that it looks right when I click the Post button, and not just in the editor box.
Edit: I guess it is a limitation of the board software. The code posted by rxcall has the same problem with it. Lloyd: I think this might be something useful for the new version you are working on. Not being able to indent makes code samples look horrible. This post was edited by MysticSentinel on Friday, October 19, 2007 at 17:33. |

#28, 29, there's actually a full blown RAD editor and a plus package for devs to be able to share code - even extensions from our libs for people to use and share.
I'm glad to see we're thinking similarly and that we're working to include devs - a lot of sites like this don't focus on that. In each case, feature for feature, we plan, with the approval of the guys we are doing for, to share a "how we did it" side panel that will provide access to the steps, code, queries, etc... behind the feature. The Awin team did a great job aggregating requirements, and as you can imagine, it is a monster list. The DB design alone took months - and mindful, that in the context of Awin, we're all unpaid volunteers - so we have to pause a lot to work on stuff that keeps fuel in the tank, so to speak. The idea is to make sure that we keep the purest sense of "Comunity" and "Open Source" and make that real in ways that perhaps other efforts do not. As I have briefed each of our team on what we were attempting to do, a lot of the tools simply didn't exist. So we had to make them in a lot of cases. When the hardest parts are done - the new RIAC [Rich Internet Applications Client] we want to accomplish a few things: 1) Demonstrate what we assess the web and even the OS will evolve to and how to get there 2) Share how we did it - so others can, too 3) Support the community we are a part of 4) Demonstrate the full capabilities of the Windows ecosystem 5) Demonstrate how the integration model we developed can and is extended to others 6) Bake the skills needed into our own teams The features list is so comprehensive that I assess that any dev shop would find at least a few challenges within it. For the most part, it has been a lot of fun, but as you two know, a lot of it is just grunt work that has to be done. |

#27 Ooh, finally someone using a real language as oppose to the abomination that is VB... speaking of which... why does it come as no surprise that certain people here code in VB!
I did feel like adding a few comments though: - the standard for namespaces (i.e. smugness etc) is to to use capitals; - you don't have to explicitly extend Object - const is lowercase - you should use bool (the autoboxing type) rather than Boolean (same with returning object and string rather than Object and String) - there's a bug in your code - any topic that starts with Microsoft will not be picked up by the if (you need to use >= 0) or just use the Contains method on the string object. However I'm guessing from this bug that you just ran rxcall's through a vb -> c# converter (which would explain all the other comments I made above). VB has that retarded notion of beginning array indexing at 1 rather than 0. Abomination of a language that it is. |

#31: You are correct. That was a direct VB->C# translation, off the top of my head. If I had used Visual Studio, and created it for real, those errors would not have existed. I just rattled it off quickly for fun, as it was the end of the business day in my time zone, so I didn't have time to proof it, and to be honest, I didn't even think to. Personally, I strictly refuse to write code in VB. It is a good language for amateur programmers or those who are learning the craft, but real programmers don't use VB. Ever! :-)
there's a bug in your code - any topic that starts with Microsoft will not be picked up by the if (you need to use >= 0) or just use the Contains method on the string object. That is not the only bug in the code. The line if (threadTitle.indexof("Microsoft") > 0 is missing a close parenthesis as well. I guess this is why I don't use plain text editors for writing code. :-) |
