Are you going to try it?
M.D.V. 
If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you

Wine is actually fantastic. I have been using it for years and it works perfectly for most W32 applications (including SQL Server, graphics, serial ports etc.).
But I have never tried it with WPF applications until now.
It does not solve my Problem, but it answers my question

Microsoft shuts down hacking spree that preyed on misconfigured machines. I stand corrected. People *are* using Azure.

The project completes and success is declared! Then nothing happens. For months. No news of customers. No field bug reports. Complete radio silence. You forget all about the project, and you never hear of it again. Puts hand in air

We're pretty much driven by what the customer wants.
Conversely, what we want:
1. Clean up code
2. Rewrite code
3. Automate processes
4. Improve error reporting
5. Unit & Integration tests
6. Internal documenation
The customer doesn't care the least about (except maybe #4 indirectly), and #1 and #2 if they end up introducing bugs to things that were already working, because, after all, who actually does #5.
And for all of the above, "we" usually means only us developers to make our life easier, and getting management to sanction these activities, especially when "it works, why change it, and how much will this cost us" because management can't see beyond its collective noses, well, you get the idea.

In an exchange on Twitter this week, SpaceX CEO Elon Musk elaborated on the design tweaks his space company is considering to allow its massive Starship spacecraft to safely land on the Moon. I wouldn't think that landing was the hard part (safely; well that's another story)

|
The 'Destination Moon' method has always seemed very dodgy to me.
|
|
|
|
|
Just don't let them story nuclear fuel there.
Quote: Musk added in the tweet. “They can serve as part of moon base alpha.”

The human brain avoids taking unnecessary effort. When a person is reading, she strives to gain as much information as possible by dedicating as little of her cognitive capacity as possible to the processing. That explains why I can't find that (*&#)$*& missing semi-colon!

If you work on any type of app that has a user interface (UI) you probably have experienced that inner-loop development cycle of making a change, compile and run the app, see the change wasn’t what you wanted, stop debugging, then re-run the cycle again. Just like webforms had back in 2000.
Edit: Actually, I realized that it was better in 2000, as you could use the designer side to edit the file and get the resulting (bad) code. This is still only one-way.

That's nice, except I would never code web apps in ASP.NET WebForms.

Cool plug-in.

VS Code's Erich Gamma details how GitHub, Electron and Chromium helped deliver world's most popular code editor. Sometimes, less is more
Although for memory usage, it's probably pretty close to full VS.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the EU will soon bring antitrust charges against Amazon for its illegal treatment of third-party sellers. People who liked this lawsuit also liked...

Does this mean that prices are going to go up?
|
|
|
|

I suppose so...
The "suckers charge" will be added to the normal price.

Yes, that's generally an unintended consequence when World Improvers poke their noses into something.

I'll gladly take a million dollars and let your prices go up.

I thought they'd already GOTTEN rid of flash support.
(I wonder if Chris has set up an email trigger every time the word GOTTEN is used on the web site...)
