  1. Pascal ~13 years ago My programming language history: Pascal->Visual Basic->HTML, PHP, MYSQL->Java
  2. Congrats! Everyone has to start somewhere. Back in days my first program wasn't much complicated. Only my first program was made in Turbo Pascal so no graphical elements like buttons and input fields There are some things(errors) which can be easily prevented: If user leaves empty fields the prompt message is shown, but if user presses Cancel, then program throws exception, because for some reason also on cancel your program tries to read fields and obviously string(empty field) can't be converted to double. Same problem as above in case when only one field is filled. Simply need expand your existing checking code where you check if both fields are empty. Need to add also conditions where potentially only one field is empty Check if entered data is numerical and not string(text) Developer always have to think about all things that user could do wrong and eliminate them so he can't do it

    Where are you located?

    Of course nothing is 100% safe, but for 99% cases it's enough to hide real identity from unwanted eyes + using other safety measures.

    Where are you located?

    Northern Europe, Latvia If they don't use VPN :rolleyes:
  5. For web dev - Notepad++ For Android dev - Eclipse
  6. ISP upgraded speed (from 50/50 to 100/100). Unfortunately can't find server which could properly test upload speed, but in daily usage up speed is around 100Mbits.
  7. Honestly I don't remember the first game I beat more than once, because that was around 20 years ago :D One of them definitely was Double Dragon (NES), Comix Zone (Sega Mega Drive). I still have those cartridge and maybe it's time to beat them again :D
  8. Right now Mozilla Firefox, but on my PC are installed also Chrome, Opera, Safari and of course IE. All browsers I use for website testing purpose (when I code some stuff) to see if it looks like the same on all popular browsers :)

    Delphi

    Delphi is old programing language, but in many case it doesn't matter. Even one of most popular registry fixer (jv16 PowerTools) is programmed in Delphi. When you create your own functions then it doesn't matter if you use new or old programing language, because they will do what you make them to do. The core logic of programming doesn't change whether you use Delphi,C++, C# etc, changes only syntax. :)
  10. Yes, you can do that but it's time consuming. If previous boot drive isn't partitioned the you need a spare hdd or external drive (best option) where to backup important data. Then just use a bootable cd or flash drive (mostly for this purpose is used Linux) to copy all important data from windows drive to the backup drive / other partition.

    Need help!

    Use some app to log temps while you are playing games.
  12. If you are absolute beginner than create dual boot isn't good thing to do, but if you know some basics than chance to mess up something is small and even you mess up boot and you have OS cd's you can fix it in minutes. Of course safer is to use virtual machine (at least for testing) :)
