For Vue 3(at least for the composition api) ts support is very good and handles typing in templates and between components in a way that was a bit lacking in Vue 2.

As for the other ones React seems to be pretty good with TS and obviously Angular is TS only.

As for using templating logic over JSX, that is of course a matter of taste, but i find code becomes much cleaner when there is a clear separation of templates and logic, and with jsx its a bit too easy to blur that line.

None of the things you mention are required or in some cases even connected to .net or c#.

Azure - is not required to run .net, and .net is not required to use azure.

Sql server - has no advantage on .net than any other wellknown database.

windows net containers - Not sure what you are talking about here but if you use containers, docker linux containers are the default choice.

visual studio premium - As the article mentions there are many alternatives here. For example Jetbrains Rider or VS Code.

dev/test subscription/reservations/devoos - Maybe you are talking about Azure devops. But this is in no way required by .net.

office 365 - Has no whatsoever connection to .net other than being developed by MS.

The thing i see a lot of people bringing up as the large problem with .Net is naming and branding. I could agree with those sentiments but dont really how those are serious criticisms. Thats like saying i hate Java cause i prefer tea.

Anyway if you hate developing in .Net dont do it but I personally find it a lot more enjoyable than other languages ive worked with.

If the language and framework has been changing isnt it a good idea to inform about these things that used to be true but no longer is.

"never use ms tech for web, or you be vendor locked and ripped off"

How exactly do you mean this, .Net can be run on most platforms. Or could it be that you didnt read the article since you assumed it was propaganda?

Also with C# and .Net there has been a lot of changes since .Net Core released 2016. Doesn't change that there is a lot of older legacy code so im not entirely sure.

Ok, that might be so, i guess i dont follow US politics as close as i thought.

As for Palme its true that he has a responsibility as a leader even if he wasnt the driving force for the issue from the start. He didnt exactly argue against it publicly.

But i think the hate against Palme was more complex than a single issue and has much more to do with him being a loud and wellspoken voice for the left during the cold war / culture wars of the late 60s - early 70s. Added to that his upperclass background that seemed to annoy the right wing.

Isnt it the opposite that googles policy of showing same icon for DV and EV certificates are making it a lot more difficult for security companies to make money selling expensive EV certs?

achtung82 | 6 years ago | on: Is This Site Secure?

It's even more interesting that they seem to be working with a file-transfer protocol. It seems to me like they should be experts in this field, and clearly not aware of Let's Encrypt.

Im confused.

achtung82 | 6 years ago | on: Problems with the CSS background-image property

As i said before im not disputing that it is possible to make responsive design keep same aspect ratio always. Im just pointing out that in reality you can not control all parts of your work. Design as i said can be done by people you have no influence over. And they might have very relevant reasons for making it the way they do.

Obviously the ideal situation isnt to crop images, but if the people using the system is aware they can select images that do not have esential information in the edges.

achtung82 | 6 years ago | on: Problems with the CSS background-image property

I disagree. I would say cropping images is essential to be able to use images in responsive designs. It is obviously possible to make websites where images have the same aspect ratio on all devices, but in reality you dont always have the same people in charge of design as implementation.

achtung82 | 6 years ago | on: Problems with the CSS background-image property

I would suspect the main reasons are the possibility to format images are greater for background-image than img. Functionality like background-size cover or contain in a background image are difficult to mimic with an img tag.

achtung82 | 6 years ago | on: Problems with the CSS background-image property

True, of course then you will have to deal with the formating problems that made you choose background-image over img in the first place. Though concidering the small numbers still using IE 11 that might be acceptable.
