Germany in general, and Berlin in particular has a very low percentage of home owners. Therefore, financial profit from gentrification goes to a small elite, maybe the upper 15%.

The Problem with Web Forms was that it shoehorned statefull patterns that worked in desktop programming into http and thereby introduced very leaky abstractions. I see absolutely no reason why this should be a problem for frameworks like

I wouldn't think that you run into type errors often with a mature code base. But that's because you have to deal with this problem sooner or later. In a statically typed language, it is quite obvious what fits where. From my (

That's not really correct. Raw SQL access (SqlCommand etc) was always part of .net core. You can't really call DataTable and friends a generic non-ORM data interface - it's an API unique to ADO.net.

I'm pretty sure there will be updates that implement newer .net standard versions, but I doubt it will receive a lot of non essential upgrades for performance and such in the future.

You are not supposed to expose kestrel to the open internet. It should always run behind a reverse proxy like nginx or, in this case, IIS.

Ouside of truly exceptional circumstances, consumer boycotts just do not work. Tragedy of the commons and all that. If you want to see change, something you need to demand regulation.

GET must be safe and idempodent. In the context of http, idempodency basically means that you get the same result for each request with the same url and the same set of parameters. Toggle should be implemented as post, since it’s neithe

IIRC, the rfc uses “safe” instead of “side effect free”, which is very similar, but not exactly the same.

“Toggle” is by definition not idempodent, because you get a different result each and every time. “Open” and “close” are idempodent, but not safe. The result of a GET request should always be idempodent and safe.

Webforms was all about composition of rich components with an elaborate scheme to hide the fact that everything is playing out over http. This is completely different, it looks more similar to old school php than to webforms.
