I am sure that I am not the only one that lost a backup in the cloud for being naïve enough to trust someone else's service. I know I should not have only one backup, I learned that the hard way. :laugh:

Thank you for your reply. I also cannot work while listening to someone talking or singing. I thought you had a super power or something :-D

Offtopic: Do you listen to audiobooks while working?

J. S. Bach music has always accompanied me since I was in school. Now as a seasoned programmer I cannot live without baroque music. :cool:

"ffmpeg wrapper" In github there are 232 public repositories matching this topic. :laugh:

Never. As long as it solves the problem it's ok for me. :-D

C#, PHP, javascript ;P

Let me tell you a story about a similar product: [Visual WebGui](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6X-j3pvwmRo). It used C# and converted everything to javascript. You could use almost all of the .NET api. Advantages * If you came from Windows Forms it felt natural and very easy to use. Also you could use almost all of your old code. * It did not have a long load time, it was quick. * The final users found the software very usable as it did resemble the Office applications. Disadvantages * The runtime had to be kept up to date with new browsers versions. * The .NET implementation was propietary and only 99% identical. * There was no formal way to interact with other javascript libraries. But I did not need them at that time. Bad news * The company lost money because a product of this kind was not very popular. At first they charged for licenses but the low usage made them give it out for free and only charge for support. Then they changed their strategy and Visual WebGui was no longer supported. The community got together and asked the company to release the source code or to sell it. They did not want to do this. So, a good product and a great idea came to an end. Today you can find paid support from one of the original developers, but no new versions are being made. -- Is all this relevant to Blazor? Knowing Microsoft and their habit of abandoning their own technology I would say: yes. :~

Borland Eureka existed in the 90s.

You got a point. Test the hardware with Linux and check if the intermittence still happens.

There should be a low-cost way of generating random numbers.

Soon? Is this 1996? [I wish it was :sigh: ]

Do the challenge. It's fun and then you will see if it's something you might want to explore further. Also you can still win a coupon!! :-D

Nice look, I like it! :-D

This was in 2015, ASP.NET core didn't exist. I tried to install Mono and the components that supported ASP.NET on Mono but I could not install them correctly, mostly due to my lack of experience. :doh:

My naïveté made me think that I could run an ASP.NET app on Docker on Linux. It was not fun and it did not work (for me).

My mother language is Spanish and it's very helpful when my variable names stand out in the middle of English names: int contador = 1; float precioFinal = 0.0m; // cheers!!

I have been writing code since I was 13. Now 33 years later I still love to code.
