Here's an MSDN article on Vista Gadgets. Some preliminary documentation on 7 gadgets, and changes. I think the only major changes are that Gadgets don't reside in the Sidebar anymore, and as such "dock/undock events" are now backwards-compatibility cludges that really shouldn't be used.
Best w...
There's a link in there to an MSDN page that gives what should be copy/paste markup for a bare-bones Gadget.
But I followed the instructions, and... no gadget.
@fahad There's a link on the top of meta and it was in a system message there for a while, but that assumes people visit meta and care about chatting live with other meta users
You can't modify the addresses of num1 and num2, your code should work if your test was instead:
int main ()
{
char num1[] = "012345678910";
char num2[] = "abcdefghujk";
char *test1 = num1;
char *test2 = num2;
fastSwap (&test1,&test2);
printf ("%s\n",test1);

Is there a name for the default avatars that are generated for users who do not assign one themselves?
Not the avatar of the blank user, but the one made up of shards, shapes, and colours:

Sometimes voting dwon an answer or question just isn't satisfying enough psychologically. One feels the urge to annihilate and destroy with prejudice. However, there is no need for personal attacks on Stack Overflow.
Instead, make use of this bookmarklet by Erik Rothoff and destroy, destroy, des...
@Mark That's unusual; if answers are the same almost always the first answer will get upvotes. If anything it's more likely for low rep users, since they look more impressive having the same answer as a high rep user

@Mark It seems problematic that a post can be moved from A to B, people can be acting on it on B, and suddenly without warning or any interaction from B's users the post disappears
What's up with all the Enlightened badges I'm getting today? I was almost suspecting someone of going around upvoting all my answers, but I don't appear to have gotten any votes on those questions.
That would be cause you got them due to a programming error on our side. I just ran the following globally:
delete u
from Users2Badges u
join Posts p on p.Id = ReasonId and p.Id <> (select MIN(p2.Id) from Posts p2 where p2.DeletionDate is not null and p2.ParentId = p.ParentId )
where Bad...
