My areas are mainly VB6 and VB.NET Winforms.

I don't code in C# and don't plan to until the IDE has the same level of productivity as it does when using VB.NET

My pet hates are:

  • People who post VB.NET code that does not compile with Option Strict On - If you use VB.NET you should switch Option Strict On Now

  • Answers that start "I don't usually code in [some question tag]" OR "I haven't used [some question tag] for 20 years" followed by some code in the language in question - please answer questions that you are qualified to answer

To be honest I don't know any details about the web hosting, it is all handled my our marketing people but I wanted to get some facts before I go and talk to them about it!
