They need to add Visual Fortran support to .Net Core. If they did that, I would brush off my old FORTRAN manuals and have a go.
Note: I was very disappointed when I found out that F# was not a newer version of FORTRAN.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

New development should be on .Net core but I don't see the need to migrate.

Still waiting for SQL Server Reporting Services support in Core. Without that, we can't even think about porting.

I ran compatibility analyzer on the .net 4.x MVC project I'm currently working on.
~80% compatible with core 3.0 the missing items almost entirely bits of low level aspnet guts that I've no idea what actually do/and thus have no clue how they could be replaced.
Conclusion; a port's not going to happen any time soon...
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Amazon- and Google-approved apps turned both voice-controlled devices into "smart spies." Wasn't that the point of these?

MIT Review: "Military artificial intelligence can be easily and dangerously fooled: AI warfare is beginning to dominate military strategy in the US and China, but is the technology ready?"Quote: Last March, Chinese researchers announced an ingenious and potentially devastating attack against one of America’s most prized technological assets—a Tesla electric car.
The team, from the security lab of the Chinese tech giant Tencent, demonstrated several ways to fool the AI algorithms on Tesla’s car. By subtly altering the data fed to the car’s sensors, the researchers were able to bamboozle and bewilder the artificial intelligence that runs the vehicle.
In one case, a TV screen contained a hidden pattern that tricked the windshield wipers into activating. In another, lane markings on the road were ever-so-slightly modified to confuse the autonomous driving system so that it drove over them and into the lane for oncoming traffic.
Tesla’s algorithms are normally brilliant at spotting drops of rain on a windshield or following the lines on the road, but they work in a way that’s fundamentally different from human perception. That makes such “deep learning” algorithms, which are rapidly sweeping through different industries for applications such as facial recognition and cancer diagnosis, surprisingly easy to fool if you find their weak points.
Leading a Tesla astray might not seem like a strategic threat to the United States. But what if similar techniques were used to fool attack drones, or software that analyzes satellite images, into seeing things that aren’t there—or not seeing things that are? [^] Hopefully it will be a lot "smarter" than Google ad-AI that continually tries to sell me Chinese heavy-industry machine-tool-systems.

I meant an electric car without all the hackable do hickys.
It seems as soon as we toss out the ICE drive train and replace it with motors, oh then we have to have all this other crap I guess because we can.

Thanks to the spread of the Internet Of Sh*t Things, there are much simpler vulnerabilities in common infrastructure, without the need to trick "artificial" intelligence.
Just imagine some hacker manipulating the traffic lights in town, giving green light to everyone ...
