Precisely that. There is a whole lot more crap in behind an.aspx page than just some server-side C#, there is ridiculous amounts of javascript and encoded viewstate data being passed around in the the background and far more complexity and property abstraction than any HTML element ever needed.
I have a faint memory of doing some PHP long ago but can't compare if with modern server-side C# capabilities, but I don't have much need for other languages than C#. I even installed.Net Core on my Linux box just for the hell of it, and can compile and run a web site quickly using that (altho configuring it to run under Apache took me some time).
The real problem, I believe, is not the tool being used but the fact that so many people with no programming training are being told "anybody can create a web site" and find that making pretty HTML pages is easy, then leap in to adding dynamic features with whatever seems the most popular tool at the time. Learning to get by with some copy-and-paste tricks encourages the expansion of bad coding practices and creates monsters. The wealth of advice and example code to copy may be encouraging but probably does not make a great replacement for training and learning real skills.
And also, lets not forget that C# was responsible for stopping a whole lot of developers from using Visual Basic. I mean, how could you complain about that?
You don't think consumers will want valid non-falsified facts about their electric cars too? Won't they care about kilometers per kilowatt, or the expected lifetime of the power cells? There will always be some aspect of a consumable product to exaggerate about or otherwise misrepresent,
Hey, it's somebody who gets off the couch and builds stuff. Probably a better choice than many politicians who think walking about talking about themselves is the best effort they need to make.
A dedicated flat-earther will tell you that the cameras lie. They probably all have altimeters built in and start adding the fish-eye effect when you take em up high. Oh hell, I've been reading too many of their web pages.
Sure, as soon as the reptilians saw that we are educating the children about reality, they want to take those vids down. Now the children will only hear about this stuff through rumor and gossip, so they won't possibly find it believable.
It's 2018 and/. [Slashdot] readers [people who read Slashdot] need to have the acronym GPU explained to them in their story summary. What have we come to?
I was going to mention Komodo Edit, I used it for a while a few years back and liked it a lot. These days I use Geany, mainly because it is easier to install from the package manager whereas Komodo Edit would require me to download a file and read install instructions. heh.
Hasn't somebody made a GUI based BASIC thats nearly equivalent to VB6? Can't remember the name or if they made it free, but I remember shuddering at the prospects of people madly writing VB6-like apps for Linux.
Cobol was used in the training course I did before launching my development career. Sadly it was not being used in any of the areas I worked after that. Sometimes I am tempted to install it on my Linux box and see how much of my first training I can still remember, other times wisdom hits me and I don't do that.
It gets annoying whenever I access a local device on my network and chrome presents it's warning page, then I have to click on a link to expand some extra text, which has a link to let me continue to the intended destination.
They should at either have a maintainable list of sites I deem trusted, or be able to recognize local network devices and shut the fuck up when I am accessing them.
My Octoprint service is one example. It runs on a raspberry pi on my workbench and I use it's web interface from my PC or phone frequently. I would rather not have to fuck about with chrome warnings when I just want to see my printer status.
The sad thing is I am starting to prefer other browsers which don't have these annoying features.
The money concern is that people with great gobs of cash at their disposal get to go places others can't and get away with behavior that other cannot. The guy would not have got into our country without the wealth he held and the promise he was going to make investments here. The money he creamed from his internet activities came from other peoples work and intellectual properties (regardless of how much we hate the movie industry etc) and said money elevated him above the status of a normal citizen. You may not be able to see clear and well defined laws being broken but it is not a behavior we should allow or encourage. People have to be losing something, whether they recognize it or not, for somebody else to become incredibly wealthy. You may hate the corporations which finance, produce and profit from movies, but how else do the artists and creative people receive any income and ability to create the stuff we enjoy? No it's not the same as violence, rape or murder, but it is harming society, internet freedom and many other eventual outcomes you may not see as triggered by this sad episode here in NZ.
What, are we going to have a vote now and decide he is innocent based on popular opinion?
It's pretty damned obvious to a lot of people that he was complicate in numerous activities which bent the law in a lot of countries. Just because he skipped town and came to hide in NZ should not be a shield against such activities, at least not when that amount of money is involved.

Altho that patent expired before humans invented paper....
Now I'm trying to imagine what I can design for my 3D printer to make use of this.
It doesn't seem any more efficient than the hexagonal design patented by bees a few millennia ago.
It could be hallucinations... how many papers are you rolling it in?
If they change to a modern encoding, I will have to upgrade my dial-up modem to handle bigger words : (

Yes... but were you forced to use Google for that?

Well when WATER gets really really cold....
Because you get to select an area to copy I guess, instead of catching the whole screen.

I think he did this as a precursor to launching himself into space. This wasn't about getting proof.
But if he believes the earth is a flat disc then wouldn't he just say that explains why the edge looked curved?

I wonder how many used-computer stores he had to search to find an old machine running Windows 7, so he could claim this unexpected upgrade occurred.

We already did evaluate them and voted them out already.
