This is grep++ right?

My guess is that it's aimed more at the humanities. Hence the GUI. My experience: in the world of humanities text analysis, there are just a ton of Java programs which were funded by some academic grant. Mostly they are closed source, not updated, might have a horrible GUI, and the website is always written in 8 point font.... Don't hate them for what they are....

Everyone has autonomy over their own system. Who are we to judge if they want to do something like that.

> do something like that What's wrong with this? Genuine question. Modern .NET is fully open-source with a permissive MIT licence. This includes the compiler and analysers infrastructure (Roslyn), the package manager (Nuget), and even the shell language (PowerShell). It is a superb alternative to Java, Go, and similar languages. Why is using .NET on Linux or MacOS such a weird thing?

As far as I know the .net debugger infrastructure is not open source, so unless you are happy to stay within the confines of VSCode, I think that your options are pretty limited for stepping through your code.

Running .net code on Linux is fine, though.

Developing a .NET CRUD webapp on Mac using Rider, ASP.NET + EF Core and PgSQL. Deploying on Debian Linux behind a reverse proxy. It's a comfy life. Everything (more so than the Java ecosystem) just works. That said, I still have that nagging fear that Microsoft will do a Microsoft in some way and I'll be forced back onto Windows with all its attendant horrors.

This[1] comes under "doing a Microsoft right" ? It is my belief that M$ is intentionally not improving dotnet watch.

The current implementation is not as good as what you get from javascript world.

There is however no indication if it failed on a line when using ChatGPT, it could provide you with a slightly incorrect result.

Yeah that's always been a fear but I always dog food and I've had no issues yet

ive done it with transforming data (for example pasting a table in and asking it to turn it into LaTeX) or something and had the occasional issue with it misordering or forgetting things. It didn't take long to spot the error for me though

I tried debugging my .net project in VS Codium and can't because the debugger will only run in Microsoft's Visual Studio Code. That was enough to make me second guess putting my eggs in that basket.

This is vsdbg (which comes with Visual Studio 2022 and the Microsoft-provided binary of VS Code).

There are alternatives like OmniSharp[1], the debugger shipped with JetBrains Rider, and Samsung's netcoredbg[2].

i'm currently developing .net apps in neovim with full LSP support, it's lovely. There are definitely alternative debuggers, such as netcoredbg from Samsung

Good to know!

I've been using Omnisharp for ages, but I could never get netcoredbg working.

Last time I tried te integration with emacs-dap it kept segfaulting for no obvious reason.

But I may give it another try now!
