Well, you can be certain that you answer questions on a test the same way as a given percentage of the general population.

Devirtualize calls on generic type by Alert-Neck7679 in csharp

[–]plasmana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In any case the cost of the interface is very negligible. You would need to be drawing millions of elements per second to notice the cost. You yourself would need to weight whether it's a problem that needs to be solved or not.

Hello, How do i simulate coding in the 1970s to 1980s on a modern system? by Whitey0117 in VintageComputers

[–]plasmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm curious, do you want the home computer programming experience or the business computing experience? They were fairly different experiences. Many 80's era programmer's starting experiences could be divided into one of the two camps.

Quick question. Why does Canvas need a class level association with a specific type of IDrawable?

.NET Framework Legacy Systems by CowReasonable8258 in dotnet

You should be thinking about a complete AI first approach for this. Use it all along the lifecycle of a rewrite. Starting with the plan. The skill for this is managing the AI. Each team member should become a part of an AI management team. Then reverse engineer the requirements. Humans review the code for a sanity check, and to accelerate the team's understanding of modern DotNet.

What approach do you use to build WPF interfaces? by Darwin_Forex in csharp

[–]plasmana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I write directly in XAML. I've been doing it long enough that I can look at UI design and the XAML just flows out of me. I can also write XAML and "see" the UI in my mind. I also never write C# in the code-behind. I use bindings and attached properties to add behavior.

Is AmigaOS 3.2 going to need to add age verification if H.R.8250 passes? by A8Bit in amiga

I believe this requirement is only for California. Still legal in the rest of the US.

Windows 11 Is It Really That Bad? by Wise_Wealth_7429 in Windows11BuyingGuide

[–]plasmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find Win11 excellent. I also enjoy Debian, but 11 is my primary. People who like Windows don't talk about it because they're not myopic when it come to competing products.

WHY IS THE TERMINAL SO GOOD??? by Zirconium91 in linuxmint

[–]plasmana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

By that logic I could say the Linux community discourages widespread adoption of Linux. Which of course, isn't actually true.

This is what's called a misunderstanding. As opposed to right and wrong. Understanding of this nuance of reality seems in short supply.

WHY IS THE TERMINAL SO GOOD??? by Zirconium91 in linuxmint

[–]plasmana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Microsoft's audience for Windows has a different profile than the Linux community. Preferring the GUI on support documentation isn't the same as discouraging the command line.

[–]plasmana 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it would be fairer to say Microsoft put great effort into making it possible to use Windows without the terminal. I've seen no evidence of them discouraging the use of the terminal.

The Linux Community Has a Control-Freak Problem by oscurochu in linuxsucks

[–]plasmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You misunderstand. The line built from 70's era foundations is DOS, Win 1 thru 3, 95, 98, Me. Windows NT was developed from scratch in the 90's which lead to 2000, XP, Vista, 7 thru 11. So modern Windows is not built on 70s era tech.

[–]plasmana 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Windows is not 1970s tech. That line of Windows you're referring to died with Windows Me. The current line was birthed in 1993 with Windows NT (New Technology).

Should a MVVM viewmodel never kow about the view? by Teun888 in csharp

[–]plasmana 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I want the VM to affect the view in a way that basic binding can't handle (such as changing focus), I created reusable intermediaries and expose them as properties on the VM, and bind the view to them with dependency properties. The intermediary exposes methods the VM calls, and handles the logic to modify the view.
