I just accidentally wrote a line of code that looked like this:
private boolean MyMethod(byval x as someobject)
Yes I was going for VB, but I’ve been doing a bunch of C# coding lately. At least I didn’t hit the semi colon, too! 🙂
The funny part is I although C# doesn’t come very naturally to me, there are definitely some syntax things I love. Though I still have a really hard time getting my brain to grok code like Kate writes (though that’s pure C++…)

I would have been worried if you added the semi-colon, definitely!
Since I made that my display picture, no fewer than ten people have started conversations with me like this "gosh, you must be having a tough day, why all the swearing?". But it’s true, there are no non-C++ operators in that string.
