@Lensflare @donkulator MSFT at least had attention-to-detail n a Design Language that made Windows uniquely Windows (how good/bad it performed, is a diff discussion)
Nothing in today's MSFT looks like it was made with even an ounce of love or passion
Win11 is larping OSX and failing
Fluent UI is somehow more horrible than Material
Windows doesnt know what its primary App SDK is. UWP, Win32, WindowsAppSDK, WPF, somehow everything exists simultaneously n still gets mogged by Electron
Surface for consumers is pretty much dead (specially with Panos leaving)
IE-Edge gave up Trident-Chakra to use Chromium n be google's bitch
they're making money in B2B but dont give a fuck about consumer facing products now. And as someone who LOVED Microsoft, it's disheartening. -
blud got 0 respect for his mother tongue 💀

depends? if it's Webdev, there's nothing called "sensitive data". if Console has access to it, presume that any bad actor with physical access to website-in-session does too
-
@Lensflare Id rather Windows restarts n installs stuff correctly, than me having to clean-install a few months down the line coz Windows fucked itself up
-
I'm guessing most of its knowledge comes from Github, coz before OpenStreetMaps, I used a newer, more niche Mapping service whose documentation is horrid (fuckers' auto-generated documentation shows return-types as Object[] object)
and copilot suggested a 80% accurate object-definition there too, barring some non-existing class that I had to make looking at their JSON responses -

@TerriToniAX looool nah quite the opposite.
I go out of my way to keep my data out of the hands of war-loving dictatorship which burnt alive Vietnamese women and children :)
Invaded Iraq, Korea, Afghanistan. Occupies Japan as I write this.
if you're getting your panties twisted coz Russia does it to someone else across the ocean, oh well 🤷♂️ -
@TerriToniAX dafaq? Why does that matter

Thats a certain kind of company, where the company hires you then leases you to a different company n gets part of ur salary
you not being a direct employee of the 2nd company helps them in some liability/background checks etc too
n it's not exclusive to india either, it's a common scheme, they usually prey on recent graduates -
@tosensei all of this sounds cool until your external HDDs suddenly die n you lose years of memories
a physical media failure is way more likely than a corporate randomly deleting your stuff -
Yandex disk cot 3TB, https://360.yandex.com/disk/ thats what I use

why dont you go with a bang instead? take some hostages n livestream or something
more entertaining than starving .-. -
@tosensei as @Lensflare said, a coordinated/automated malloc-free-ish behaviour directly in real-memory is what I thought they're going with
Coz just having runtime readily available with the DLL has always been supported with their "portable deployment"
Msft adds dynamic/runtime-changes/imports limitations in Native/AOT so maybe thats the direction they're aiming for and it's just not done yet
if they do manage that, it'd essentially be devoid of GC, or if you want to be strict with words, realtime GC? -
@jiraTicket ofc not compilation lol my time isn't THAT precious yet :p
I assumed runtime benefits coz we'd be removing the VM overhead entirely, n if you're deploying serverside (so you know the machine instruction set), having a native, non-VM based backend code seems like it'd heavily reduce system load and increase response times -
@tosensei @AlgoRythm My assumption was that if we're getting rid of the VM, and using direct memory access (pre-compiled for specific instruction set, nothing on-the-fly), we'd be relying much less on GC (would GC even exist then..?) and less virtual <--> real changes n it'd give a massive performance boost but the documentation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-in/... doesnt mention much about it
Doesnt it make it similar to "deployment with runtime assemblies included"? like it aint MASSIVE then -
@Lensflare it's for my playground/pet-project anyway, it exists to be re-written whenever I find something interesting lol

wouldnt that just be a dictionary? 🤓

america is what they portray USSR/China to be
they're just better at pretence -
Religion is an inherent human tendency. You can't escape it
Even if you get rid of every religion in the world, humans will come up with new false gods -
@retoor it's .NET xD n going by my experience with MSFT, if I try to go anti-pattern with its builds, it'll only get worse
@lorentz I thought it'd be in Solution settings, but surprisingly wasnt -.- followed this https://schwabencode.com/blog/2023/... and it builds like the old times now -
@kiki I already did T__T n it's just stuck on "pending". Should change it to IndexEventually ffs

i dont see how he's wrong, in the end everyone needs food on their plate n if clickbait helps achieve that, so be it
-
@retoor im curious now how it got hacked via client side .-. did the hacker overwrite client-side params?
did the PaymentGateway give you a token representing the transaction? if so, it's their headache and not your fault -
stripe's SDK is straightforward, at least if you're doing it from the Server Side

isnt there a "NullValueHandling = NullValueHandling.Ignore" equivalent when deserialising?
