Mono implemented the GUI stuff like Windows Forms, do the latest windows cross platform stuff support that? Can you run .Net GUI windows program on linux without Mono but using the latest .Net thing ? I know it was not possible in the past.

You can use third party libs like Avalonia[1] or Uno[2]

Is there somewhere where someone new to the ecosystem can get a simple introduction to all of these different terms and which ones are still relevant today? I looked into .NET somewhat recently and came away with the apparently mistaken impression that Mono was how .NET did cross-platform. I guess I must have been reading old docs, but I'm pretty sure they were at least semi-official.

Is there good documentation somewhere for getting set up to develop with modern .NET on Linux?

dot.net is the official starting point. It'll point you to getting setup with .NET dev on Linux. You can either use VSCode or Intellij Rider.

Note that this decrease in traffic is after a huge influx of visitors. Highways in and out of the area of totality were overwhelmed in most areas. I live in Michigan and drove 2 hours south to find myself in a small town park in Ohio surrounded by other Michigan residents.

Heh, I could've written this comment. I also found myself 2 hours south in a small Ohio park.

> I love how whenever Apple makes a clearly anti-trust move it's always about privacy.

Who else is going to care about privacy though?

For the payment situation for example, Apple Pay (and Google Pay) use EMV Tokenization so that your actual credit card number is obfuscated:

Credit card numbers are used by retailers to data mine their customers:

As does Samsung Pay. As could any number of tap to pay providers, if Apple would let them on iOS.

I got a notification from HIBP about this with my email address. I'm not currently an AT&T customer, but I was a customer of them back in 2015-2017 for AT&T UVerse.

How so? It looks a lot like a less-rich Java, whose type system has existed for literally decades. In fact, the generics syntax and type erasure was directly influenced by Java.
pionar · a year ago
I disagree. The language was probably more inspired by C#, which is itself inspired by Java. Type erasure is just part of transpiling to JS.
