Visualizing the .NET Framework
eldavojohn writes "If you're a Web developer, you should check out a quick post about the number of types, methods, & fields in the .NET framework. This was done using NDepend. The numbers are quite large — e.g. 39,509 types. The blogger went on to generate tree maps and a dependency matrix."
That's what I first thought of for visualizing .NET.
The goggles, etc.

Say It!
They ARE out to get you simply because They are in it for themselves and they don't care about you.
If you're a Web developer, you should ignore .NET and use something much less bloated.
There, fixed that for you.
It's better to vote for what you want and not get it than to vote for what you don't want and get it.

The idea is that you could encapsulate all that complexity inside a method inside a class--instantiate that class inside a class that has a "main()" and then put the whole thing in a module. You call all of that method with the correct parameters in an instance of another class created and instantiated the same way. You then jar it up as bytecode and then run it on the JVM--making sure your users are running the right versions of the JVM.
On second thought, OMGWTF?
Just callin' it like I see it.
This reminds me of an old joke:

A: Who the hell cares?

GNU really has their work cut out for them here with their DotGNU project to provide a free implementation. Good luck rms and co; if you try hard enough, you might be able to implement it all before Duke Nukem Forever is released.

The difference between genetic code and any human-invented language is the following: have you ever tried to debug a genome? It's friggin' ridiculous. No documentation at all.

Their may be a grammatical error, misspeling, or evn a typo in this post.
Debugging an existing genome is hard. Forking it is easy (and fun, esp. with multiple copies).
Obama likes poor people so much, he wants to make more of them.

Is that a port of a Ruby web application framework to an open-source reimplementation of a (possibly patent-encumbered) proprietary common language runtime?
No wonder it sucks compared to a Honda!

Yes, but that's a rather negative way of looking at it'
What, you thought you were joking?
