@unclebobmartin I still can't believe that LLMs made @theo and Uncle Bob basically agree with each other...

[Martin Leduc @DecimalTurn]

@rstephensme @sogrady No worries, so the idea would be to group VBA, VB6 and VBScript under Visual Basic Classic?

[Martin Leduc @DecimalTurn]

@rstephensme @sogrady It doesn't look like the problem was fixed in the latest release unfortunately 😭

[Awesome @awesome__re]

An event-driven version of Visual Basic 6.0 built into most Microsoft Office apps for automation and scripting.

@gjmount Ah yes, I just remembered about the Entreprise version of Excel having access the Office Scripts features. I was hoping this restriction would get removed, but alas...

@troyhunt @Ian_Costa18 What if there was a file located at /sso.txt where a domain could list other domains that use the same auth?

The nice thing with roman numerals is that they are in alphabetical order, but only up to 8.

It's a good way to prevent you from exceeding version "_final_VIII" because only chaos can come after that.

Visual basic is faster than over half of Rust frameworks

@lemire Small typo: the GitHub repo has CVS instead of CSV in the title.

[Martin Leduc @DecimalTurn]

@rstephensme @sogrady In case that's useful, I've also worked on a python script that detects the language for older repos that have the label "Visual Basic".

Currently, it has run on nearly 18% of the affected repos and should have gathered all the data in early 2025.

The inevitable VB6 resurrection is upon us but this time running everywhere (Desktop, Mobile, Web and TVs) and using #csharp #dotnet #xaml #avalonia #fluent #basic

35 years after its release, @dogplayingtris just became the first person to get the NES Tetris rebirth. He made it all the way to level 255, then the game wrapped around and restarted from level 0.
