Microsoft, much appreciated.

I think I have posted this before. My new job requires me to not to be limited to MS technologies and hence I am learning other things. Looking at the state of other technologies, I really appreciate what MS has done with .Net framework. Often, in the workshops with technologically diverse audience, my response to "how do you do X?" is Visual Studio or framework provides this by default. I have always liked .Net framework even though I had little to no exposure to Java World and others. But now that I have to really deal with it, I see how awesome .Net framework is. Once again, thank you Microsoft. PS: Yes, I know pains of working with some MS offerings.

Let me see if I have correctly translated this: I just discovered that I don't how to program because the .NET framework does everything for me. Did I get that right? Best Wishes, -David Delaune

LOL, no. What I mean to say is that even now, there are so many non-programming trivial tasks that require too much to time and effort. Plus, I noticed that there is a lot of effort that goes in to integrating various tools that are employed. In the .Net framework, most of the things are provided by default.

Yah it looks like I am also going to have to dip into the non MS universe out there. I am not looking forward to it at all. Still I detest the web stack that needs to be dealt with, doing it in Java can't be all that much worse can it.

It might be. Here are few things you might end up using: Gulp Grunt Maven Docker GIT Blah Doink jMeter Phew jBoss Cradle Toothpick Gradle Grave ...and many more in a simple application I just made up few names here.

Spotted the person that hates reusability :laugh: In all seriousness though, why waste your time coding something if an existing implementation does it within requirements? That just equates to less time on CodeProject (sellout mode activated, staff plz? Kappa). And we all want to maximize our time :thumbsup: Would you write your own compiler every time you start a project because "using an IDE just shows you don't know how to program?"

I also wish I could be ten years younger when I also still was in the euphoria stage of my relation to Mickeysoft.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a fucking golf cart.

I agree! Just like SO does. Why waste time figuring out how to fixed a trivial error when someone already fixed it. :-)

Why not simply using Mono then? It's not a Microsoft technology, but it's a familiar environment to any .NET programmer.

Positions like this are akin to saying that you're not a 'real mechanic' unless you smelt your own metal for the engine blocks in the cars you work on. Get real! It's not the tools we use, its how we use them.
