I'm guessing HN is too young for CORBA
- maxxxxx 9y agoI remember it but not very fondly....
- nurettin 9y agoI really miss those millenial usenet discussions about whether if you should be trying to send large amounts of data over flaky 56kbps connections (at best) via TCP instead of using CORBA2 because it was slow and required code to adapt existing systems. Delphi already had remote objects, data providers (served via SOAP) and database connections and they actually worked well. In the meantime, microsoft and yahoo invented their own binary chat protocols which worked reliably and scaled to hundreds of thousands of users and everyone was jealous.
