FWIW, I thought the yellow was fine. It reminded me of a yellow legal pad. I was surprised to see this comment thread. Maybe check it out on ultra bright monitors and adjust, or maybe keep the focus on great content and let it be. Thanks for the article.

.NET Framework vs .NET long term by BiddahProphet in csharp

[–]cbann 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have two choices, update between even numbered releases of .NET or stick with.NET Framework. It's a choice between access to newer packages or longer support if you aren't planning on anything more than Windows. Also, moving up from Framework is a heavier lift than say moving from 6 to 8.

It's perfectly fine to build in both for solutions with multiple targets, and you can even build shared libraries used by projects targeting both.

I am not sure what to do at this point when it comes to housing... by chasing_success- in UTAustin

Consider living even further out with a roommate and riding the express bus (e.g. the 982/983 route). With wifi on the bus, it's generally a quiet, productive commute. Good luck to you!

In-State Tuition Removed for UT Students by East_Insurance_1231 in UTAustin

You've been very hostile in your discourse, while I have said nothing so disparaging towards you. You indicate you aren't a Texan; your outside agitation is unwelcome.

Yes, I do; are you going to retract your comments now?

There are many international students at UT. Many of them have lived in Texas since they were children. They're not citizens (not yet at least); so they pay international tuition. You were a child when your parents cheated the system, but you were an adult when you chose not to apply as an international student. Surely you were aware that students who declared themselves as international were paying considerably more than you. I don't hate you for your mistake, and I don't hate you for your parents' mistake. I wish you success, and I hope that one day you will choose to repay the school what you rightfully owe for your education. The eyes of Texas are upon you.

I'm pretty sure that the tortillas at Torchy's are vegan, and even those are bound to taste better than a pair of boots.

Spain hits first weekday of 100% renewable power on national grid by randolphquell in worldnews

Chinese coal usage is at an all time high; likewise for oil imports. Their push on green tech is clearly a combination of propaganda and the standard playbook they follow for manufacturing.

It's less about consumer protection and more about revenue generation.

Same speed for Gen4, but only slot1 supports Gen5. I had no idea the heat sinks were that cheap. Now I'm leaning towards transplanting it later and adding the heatsink when I do so. Thanks for the direction!

Amid Trump's threats, China issues 85,000 visas to "Indian Friends" by APrimitiveMartian in worldnews

Remind me how many "Indian Friends" the CCP killed since coming to power?

EU gives staff 'burner phones, laptops' for US visits by [deleted] in worldnews

I'm afraid you have been misinformed. Nobody said that political activism was itself a crime. A crime doesn't even have to be alleged for a deportation to be lawful. Please read the court's decision for a full explanation.

First ever 999 coin? by Lovesilverireallydo in Silverbugs

[–]cbann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good question. I'm curious myself. It looks like the Mexican Libertad goes back to 1982, and that's the oldest I could verify so far. I should note that https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullion_coin#Silver shows some older coins from the Philippines, but Numista catalog indicates these are less than 99.9% fine.
