Re: vs for .Net SUCKS Big Time

You know, there are other development tools out there. You already have choices. But with any development tool, there is a learning curve, and they have to be used correctly.

Don't get me wrong, I have been very aggravated by what MS does with things, but the reality is it's their OS we are developing for. Fortunately, there are some other choices already. RealBasic is one off the top of my head.

But what we can do is promote other OS's, like Mac OS X, Linus, FreeBSD, etc.. Then we can write programs for these environments using C++ and Java. RealBasic also generates code that can be compiled in all these environments.

By the way, Java 6 has a much better runtime environment than prior versions - it makes desktop development in Java a much better choice than it used to be. And Oracle has an awesome Java development environment.

So, choose.

Now you can't go back to your form designer to undo what you just did, There's nothing to do but spend useless hours in trying to clean up the autogenerated code.
If they're pretending to automate the tasks for us, let them do it right so that even idiots like me can't get in a situation from which there is no exit! When I manage to make a program, thats something that even a moron like me makes sure of. That his end users don't get in an impossible position! I can't figure out why the hell we take this sh.... I wish there were some serious competition to them so they'd have to get it right or pay the price. Now they're just lauging at us all the way to the bank! I'm a moron for putting up with it.

Regards to all of you like me :-)
