So I've been working on this prototype app using MVC5 (I can't use core because it's simply not ready for prime time)...
0) I finally got the bootstrap menu restyled to fit our layout
1) I got the banner and footer done
2) Implemented our login/register views (we allow a userid/pwd or CAC login)
3) I changed the user model userid from a string to an int, following instructions I found on google. This is where things went sideways, because Entity Framework REALLY didn't like that. Fortunately, I put compiler directives around the original code, so all I have to do is activate the compiler directive, and I'll be back to using string IDs.
4) I discovered that I can't get CAC card certificates without having some sort of middleware installed on my box. The DoD uses ActiveClient, but since I'm doing this on my personal machines, I have to buy a license for the software, or try to find a free alternative.

found the same thing, the blurb they put out sounds like it'll go there one day
and if that does happen it's also even less reason for ms winduds.
BUT: ms promised that all .net cores will be equal,
but already demonstrated some .net cores will be, umm, more equal than others...
winduds .net core 3.0 supports WPF/forms, and ms already said no other platform will ever have that (nor any local platform equivalent).
soo, I'm really not so sure if .net core away from windows will ever be fully real, or just a supermarket sample to tempt people into buying the whole bottle of ms cool aide.

None of your issues are to do with MVC, but I digress. For the login I would just abstract the missing functionality into an interface\service class that returns hard-coded results and replace your service class with one that implements the actual security when you're able to do so.

I'm gonna take the coward's way out, and let identity do whatever the f*ck it wants, and then update our existing user management code to use the tables created by identity.

I implemented the compiler directive that reverts the code to a string ID, and all is well again in Identity land.

Every so often I go back to the W3C recommendation for the Web Cryptography API in the hopes that it has been finalized. Still in draft almost 9 years later, so I'm thinking it's not gonna happen...

yup.
2 weeks ago I renewed a shop membership (cheaper printer supplies).
1 week ago they decided keying in your phone number wasn't enough, download an app, verify it,
and each time you go to the store it create one of those boxy code things to flash.
yesterday at the local shop, realised I didn't have my phone - in fact I rarely bring the phone for local shopping,
luckily their software was broken, the cashier was just asking for phone number.
but anyway apparently in the future I'm required to bring my phone along to prove I'm me,
** they won't accept photo ID ** (some privacy crap even if you choose to flash your ID).
** new members when applying must go to the store and show their ID as confirmation **
after that it's all and ONLY by phone.
as if you might not be carrying someone else's phone???
Heck, if my son wants something from there I'll happily let him take my phone to get the discount.

They'll spot that one - no self respecting yoof has anything older than a iPhoney X these days, so if he's carrying your old Nokia 3310 they will immediately smell a rat!

Hi CPians,
a tiny question about international visit cards.
How do you write your job description title and the name of the department in the english side?
I mean:
1) Usual case:
Software development /// Software developer ("ment" or "er"?)
Name of the department
2) Camel case:
Software Development /// Software Developer
Name Of The Deparment
3) Other... how?

I print/write in all caps as draftsmen/architects do.
But I would go with door #2, I think.

I've done it like this before:
Software Development /// Software Developer
Name of the Deparment
So where the conjunction isn't capitalised.

Thanks for your answer.
Would you use "Development" or "Developer"?
