usually seems that when something goes to free you lose something, like "now one company controls the project and only their pet features get any work"

not sure how i feel about nullable types.

its painful compared to languages that lack implicitly nullable refs because it�s so close you can almost taste the correctness

though c# nullable types are obviously superior as return values from the tryparse family of methods

this was one lesson I didn�t have to learn twice. I still remember bursting into tears as a kid because the cribbage hand scorer I was working on went from 95% correct to completely broken as I tried to finish it and I had no way to get back to the 95% working version

our new database guy with like 15 years of experience doesn't know how to use version control and is barely literate enough to install sourcetree, how the gently caress do these people exist

aren�t databases kind of impossible to put into version control? I wouldn�t subject someone to git just because they have a handful of janitorial scripts that could maaaaybe benefit from having revisions

he is a db architect who writes mountains of initial ddl scripts and whatnot, also asked himself about file versioning solutions in place here. he also uses a database as a db query version control system

this does sound worth putting in a vcs tho

give me every good reason why i shouldn't take the lazy way out and return serialized rows straight from my database to the web api

i know it's a terrible idea already, but the savings in code size would be huge, i still hear the siren call

I�m having a tough time thinking of a case like this where you aren�t just providing a direct db connection yet there exists a possibility for huge code size savings

can you go into a bit more detail? is there some disgusting homegrown orm that you�re trying to bypass?

there's a bit of a mentality that if it's not from microsoft, it should be written in-house. hence a lot of stuff is reinvented (badly) or not done at all

the sole exception is parsing json, which Microsoft have failed to implement after three (?) tries and now just points everyone at the third party lib
