I still have Kinect1 for Xbox 360, and it is really amazing. Dance Central is great for learning how to dance and exercise. Kinect Party my kids play till this date.

When Microsoft released it one Christmas season it sold really well. 10 million units sold. It was a huge success.

Then Microsoft bundled it with XBox One but didn't include any killer Kinect games with it. That "killed" it more then anything else. Some people liked voice commands, but you don't buy Kinect for voice commands. If they would include newest Dance Central or some other killer title as part of the package, a lot more people would buy into it.

Personally I was waiting for such a game to buy XBox One, but it never came. Microsoft could have used Kinect to really differentiate themselves, like Sony is doing with VR, but instead they just dropped it.


Yeah, we are looking into it. Interactive provides great information to see what is really going on.


Small interruption. Looks like scaling to 2 servers on Azure to handle extra traffic crashed the original one.


Azure will reset your VMs when you update their configuration. Normally this involves a rolling reset but as you only have one instance this was not possible.


Thanks for the info. I thought changing Scale would keep original server and just add new ones. But I guess it is a bit more intrusive.


Should be back up now. Mostly... If you get page not found, new DNS record didn't propogate yet. You can still use dotnetfiddle-prod.cloudapp.net or 191.234.40.

Sorry for interruption. Lesson learned.


Yeah we definitely looked at some Complify code and the blog post was helpful also.


Thanks for reporting it!

It works if you declare class first http://www.dotnetfiddle.net/IjtjcG

but not if u do initialization and call at the same time. Will take a look.


Also, "intellisense" for the "using" statement doesnt work.

Example:

   using System.
I don't get any choices...


Yes, will be fixed by tomorrow. Thanks for reporting it.


Good stuff!


We may look to add local storage sandbox for this.


IsolatedStorage may work well for this.


Thanks for mentioning it. Will fix...


Yes, website passes Run requests to back-end worker processes which compile and execute code and return results back to website for display.


I assume that you have created some kind of sand box in order to prevent malicious code execution. Can you share some details about that?


Yes, that sounds like a great idea. Will add it in next couple of days.
