The main problem is that AOT C# is not as mature on platforms other than Windows, if that.

So, to me, Hejlsberg's choice sounds pretty logical.

After, why go ? why not...

The story of Rogue 2 years ago

I really enjoyed the Epyx Atari ST version... Do you know if source code (assets, ...) are available somewhere ?

Really interesting...

And 100% right about the "over-engineered" part.

The "real" danger for PHP is to end up like Java (not the JVM, Java)

Qt 6.0 6 years ago

Yes, and stuff like pyside2 are pretty cool too (for people who don't like C++)

Qt 6.0 6 years ago

Yes, It reminds me when Java has been released for the first time.

The mantra was : "Yes, pretty slow but don't panic, in a couple of months better hardware will fix that" !!

Qt 6.0 6 years ago

Yes it is true, but in terms of CPU, there is an issue too... (Lots of sub-processes by apps, means higher context switching, etc.)

And If I need 32GB and 16-CPU to run 5 or 6 apps...

Asimov was right after all :)

Qt 6.0 6 years ago

Yes, that's what I've done... (and not only it)

It is just to illustrate the fact that Electron, after all, might be a real problem for native app.

Qt 6.0 6 years ago

You're right, Electron app. are ok... If there is only one in RAM !

On my 8 GB computer, I used to run in the same time :

- VsCode (700 MB)

- Teams (600 MB),

- PostMan (350 MB !? WTF)

- WhatsApp (consumes almost 600 MB after 1 hour !)

I had to switch to the web version for the last 3...

In contrast, running 25 torrents with qBitTorrent: ~25 mb.

I agree, because I've seen that in my previous jobs...

Programmers used to say that the GC and its fuc*#=+ STW was a pure mess, but under the hood, they didn't realize (accept ?) in fact the code WAS the mess.

Don't (always) blame the tool !

Great job, really...

In the meantime, and even with the help of vue.js, front dev. remains such a mess :(

(But what you did is just pretty cool)
