It's amazing to see the size of the software. It's just 2.9 MB. But the capabilities are awesome.
I have no clue how this is possible. Maybe the whole thing is written in C/Win32 API ?
Or the other posibility is, the OS is already providing all the functionalities needed for an RDP s/w. And this App is just working as a proxy on top it. On any case, 2.9 MB feels like a miracle.

I often find myself wondering the opposite...
Why the heck does a simple application that does close to nothing need 50 MB of free space?
Especially phone apps are bad, although I guess it's mostly images that take up the space.
WhatsApp, for example, takes up 58 MB of free space and what does it do, really?
It enables you to create an account, login, make a phone call, set some settings and get your contacts, messages and media.
Most of the work is done on web servers (like retrieving messages) and on your phone (like storing media).
You'd think a few MB or even KB should suffice...

You know Adobe Acrobat reader used to go above 150MB, even in the good old days.
Nobody knew why a doc-reader should get this big. 
And yes Whatsapp is a big bloat. I would expect that to be around 7MB. May be the extra 50MB is all about the pile of pipes that is used to steal your data and transport to different parts of the universe. Mark Z accepts currencies of any galaxy/universe.

Tomorrow, we start the rewrite of our flagship web app with the MVC5 project template I created.
I must admit to a bit of apprehensiveness, and even trepidation. I'm sure there are some things I didn't cover (yet) in the template, but for the most part, I estimate that I've cut six months off the time it will take to do the rewrite, and most of the work (in the app) will be nothing more than a lift-and-shift evolution. The only real diff in terms of content is that we're changing over from Telerik KendoUI (jquery library, circa 2012) code to the MVC version of that jquery library (2019R2). The only javascript we'll have to write is the client-side interaction stuff, and even that will be mostly lift/shift.
So, it's time to shutup and nut-up.

Good one.
I just posted about the passing of this bill in the GIT forum. While I'm ashamed it took us this long, I am also quite delighted in that this happened in spite of certain political parties backing up this garbage ideology to purely appease certain groups for votes.
That's as much as I could say without having this whole thing moved out to the soapbox. But happy, I am.

You see many Women are against this new legislation. I think they want to get rid of the hubby-stuff pretty quick as well. They seem to be okay with the "Shariya"'s law. It's a mutual benefit.
Not sure why the govt wants to spoil their game.

i never have.
give me templates.
or you may as well just give me something procedural.
if i can't do generic programming i'm a sad honey bear.
C# is barely adequate. And it's too object centric IMO.
generics need to be able to do more. I want traits. I want the runtimes to do what i can make a C++ compiler do with templates.
I probably just got the BAC up of this entire board saying that, but there it is.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

It's not really our fault that you picked the wrong tool for the job at hand...
If you wanna go native, do it. You can still write un-managed DLLs that can be used in .Net apps.
I don't understand what the fuss is about.

i like managed code. i just wish generics did more than they currently do. At least they added covariance with .NET 4 but it has a long way to go.
