So you think it's acceptable for an application to provide no feedback in the event of an error? I'm glad I don't use any of your systems.
I did use the command line which neglected to mention the very important fact that the GUI had already installed the application despite the dependencies not being met.
Installing Chrome on Windows has never been a hassle, and indeed when I installed it on Mint it worked first time just by double clicking an icon.
I was installing Chrome because I was interested to see how Netflix runs under Linux. It doesn't work on Chromium.
Professional developers you say? I couldn't convince Chrome to install on the Ubuntu "batmobile" a few months back without a lot of command line fucking about.
Pro tip: If your software installer fails you show an error message.
If your software installer is aware that software requires other packages it should install them first then install the package you want to install or fail if it doesn't know where to look.
What it should NOT do is install the package but then put out a console message saying it couldn't, leaving even the more knowledgeable user going round in fucking circles. I got it to work eventually after uninstalling Chrome (which dpkg told me it failed to install), installing the other packages and then installing Chrome again.
The Joker would've already destroyed Gotham while the Batmobile was spinning its wheels.
Will creators be allowed to create without pricks like him shitting on them for things that having nothing to do with whether it's any good e.g. Witcher 3 not being "diverse" enough while the themes of prejudice and hatred are a major part of the story and in fact of the entire universe.
.NET 1.1 and 2 apps run fine on.NET 3.5. I know because we've just had the pleasure of moving a few away from a 2003 server to a 2012 R2 server. 3.5 is still supported until 2023 if not longer on 2012 R2 (not sure whether it's on 2016).
This is a good answer to the previous poster. People use "Redmondware" because software written in 2002 will still work and is still supported in 2017.
Given that they threw a load of us COBOL programmers on the scrapheap for being "too expensive" after Y2K. Not as expensive as not having us available is it you bunch of pricks. Have fun spending billions rewriting it all.
They get criticised too. She gets praised to high heaven in other places just for being a female CEO so it all balances out. I want more female CEOs personally because those who think that someone who has got to such a position will be better just because they're not a white male will learn a valuable life lesson that assholes come in all shapes and sizes.
I've used both and I'm far more productive in SSMS than I ever would be in vim because unlike vim SSMS is designed for SQL management and makes life way easier. The whole point of computers is to make things easier and trying to manage multiple databases and queries using bash and vim would be painful beyond belief. You can work in such a wildly inefficient manner if your pathetically fragile ego requires that to make you feel superior but the sensible people will use tools (including the command line) that make them more efficient and run rings around you.
Yes that would be wonderful but what will actually happen is that a lot of people will struggle to buy necessities and those hoarding the money will call them lazy.

Must be great to know you'll never lose your job and never have a really expensive illness.
It shows the bean counters the cost of not keeping systems up to date.

Lol yeah that's all. No one at all is developing new stuff for Windows. Fuckwit.
"Gay"?
Are you 12?
Fuck off pedant

And yet two of my colleagues are quite happily using them so as always YMMV.
Who paid for them again?

Computers, the internet, space travel, GPS, Large Hadrin Collider, road network etc etc

Or to the non-buzzword community "use".
No, not wanting to waste vast sums of money for no business benefit syndrome.
You don't have to use the most expensive version and I doubt that enterprise support for PostgreSQL is free either.

I think it has sharding
Why do they have to have computer science degrees?

Ugh. Too much "leveraging".
They are better because I can use them on the OS of my choice and any changes are available immediately.
Have you seen that Black Mirror episode too?
Worked us really hard and then outsourced to India because we dared to expect to be paid well for working on that god awful shit.
