Just to close this out - it's my gateway. I have AT&T internet service that looks like this: street -> cable -> gateway -> Amplifi router -> users the gateway includes a wireless router and a 4 port gigabit hub. I normally plug directly into the gateway so I don't share bandwidth with the kids in the house. When I cannot connect, I re-boot the gateway and it works for a while, but sooner or later it goes insane. But, if I connect to the amplifi router, it works 100%. Enough time lost...

It was my attempt at snark, though my statement could be considered in two ways; that it's bad, or that it's irrelevant. I agree with you. People are self-selecting, especially with social groups, and always have been. To me, the problems aren't like-minded people gathering, but people being disrespectful and hijacking groups for their own purposes. In 2016, I quit several Facebook groups when they were taken over by a minority of very vocal extremists. Even the most light-hearted discussions were all to often turned vitriolic by these agitators. (It strikes me that, generally, the people accusing others of group-think, are the ones preventing genuine debate over controversial issues.) (To paraphrase someone else, somewhere else; isn't it odd that you can have two people agree on 99% of things, yet won't speak to each other because they are polar opposites on 1%.)

No problems Rob. Am Happy to Help. You may be interested to know I wrote A Book on Bootstrap 3 (Shameless Plug I know...) It's in the Syncfusion Succinctly ebook series and free to download from their site (There's a quick link to it and others from my blog) If you hold on a week or so, I have a new post that I'm hoping to get finished for my blog that will be designed to get a newcommer up and running in as little time as possible with Aurelia and C# using dotnet core. Lastly, I'm in the final stages of finishing the followup to my Bootstrap 3 book, covering bootstrap 4, which I'm hoping to get done by end of December ready for SF to publish it in the new year. Of course like you, time pressures are always present, and whats outlined above is the "Nirvana plan" :-) Feel free to ping me on Twitter as @shawty_ds if you want to ask anything. Shawty

When was software ever "on the rails" ? «While I complain of being able to see only a shadow of the past, I may be insensitive to reality as it is now, since I'm not at a stage of development where I'm capable of seeing it.

i like to play with tech I've not been exposed to. The Apple infrastructure has never really interested me, but it certainly can't hurt to expand my knowledge base. Local computer shop has a mac mini for $600, sounds like a training investment. It's small enough to sit on my Linux pizza box.

But that is not relevant at all. Member 7989122 wrote: Actually, lots of interpreters for non-compiled languages of today do some compilation into some sort of bytecode Since I have written two compilers and a number of interpreters and taken the requisite academic course related to compilers I am quite familiar with how they work. However since most programmers, certainly not the many I have worked with, have not done either of those then I wouldn't expect them to be familiar with that. So I have no expectation that the average programmer would be either.

Ruby-on-rails in particular always struck me as exemplary of bad design principles. It surfaced the DB design to become the domain model, and really was reminiscent of the badness of 4GL development. Probably fine as long as your app just involved CRUD-based forms, as soon as your app leaves that model you're in for a world of pain.

Its never happened to me either, and I'm now 75 and been driving since I was 17. If it did, I would be very worried and down the Docs in an instance. The only bit of Griff's note that is worrying is the bit about letting the wife drive.

WEB API should return status code in the header and any content in the body. For example, if the request is successful then set the status code to 200 in the header and send the result in the body. If the request is failed , then set the corresponding status code in the header ( for example 500 etc...) and send additional information in the body.
