In general, I don't like Microsoft, and I certainly don't like what they've done with Windows post Windows 7, but that doesn't mean that everything they say or do is terrible. Even if some what they do is terrible, there are some really smart people working there, and some of what comes out of there is definitely good. I really don't think that judging the situation with ?: or ?? or any other operator in C# on what's happened with Windows 10 makes any sense. Sure, we're talking about the same company, but we're talking about completely different teams here. And Adam is talking about the research that they've done on the operators in C#, which is completely different from talking about what they've done with a product unrelated to that research. Shooting down an idea just because it comes from Microsoft (or any other company) rather than judging it on its technical merits is just bad policy. Ideas should be judged based on their own merit, not simply on where they came from. Based on other posts that you've made, you seem interested in bashing anything related to Windows or Microsoft, and that really isn't productive when we're trying to have a technical discussion. - Jonathan M Davis
