the possibility that neocotinoids are the main cause of colony collapse has been all over the news in the past two years, outside of north america.

even the new york times picked up on this - http://www.nytimes.com/2012/03...

the harvard research in question has been mentioned, off an on, over the past six months, to a year at perhaps most.

politely - are you sure of what you are claiming?

Comment just not MSDN (Score 1) 352

i've done more harm to my own (and other people's) code by following advice taken from MSDN articles than by any another means.

microsoft have a way of breaking everything, and then writing about it is if they invented the solution.

except their solutions never work.

the number of times i have had to rewrite server code, socket code, locking code, threading code, all because the original was based on one of their samples.

there is no single "right" way to write code, but there are plenty of wrong ones, and microsoft have been the worst offenders, to date, in my experience.

at time of writing stackoverflow is my best reference, and otherwise plenty of RTFM.
