Towards Cross System Compatability

This is in general an issue I have when writing code. You see, I despise windows, but I love sql server and visual studio.

Linux has many pitfalls as well, but it runs things much faster and is less bloated even though its build tree is incredibly complex and uses alot of outdated tools and working pieces one person will never ever learn.

"The bison goes into the latex, the latex goes into the man-db, the man-db exclaims some loud text and this is how lin goes" hahaha

In short every time I see the tool-chain on Linux I feel somehow that I have been violated by a large hairy beast encapsulated in LaTex :P hahahaha just a little.. joke.

Point is however is there are some performance enhancements surrounding Linux and very rarely do I see a sudden DOUBLING of space requirements unannounced by Linux, which windows seems to greedily enact at points.

Problem is my beloved .NET and C# do not port well to linux, and fuck that .net core shit !!!!

The other problem is that C# is very limited in its use unless you deal with tons of language bindings, formerly referred to as externs, and then later referred to as interops.

And many open source libs just DON'T compile on windows either without considerable porting and hacking by a special project.

And btw, on that note CMAKE IS GODDAMN JOKE AT THE TIME OF THIS WRITING ! AND VS CODE TRYING TO CREATE SOME CRAPPY EDITOR FOR IT IS EVEN MORE OF A GODDAMN JOKE ! LIKE DOCKER ! NOONE USES GODDAMN DOCKER WHO IS POSSESSING OF THEIR SENSES IF YOU'RE GOING TO GO CLOUD GO KUBERNATES YOU FUCKING ASSHOLES !!!!!!

And btw, unless cloud is made affordable and data is not deleted ad hoc, its fucking useless as google is now demonstrating with its "we'll delete your shit in 2 years if you don't login as if you never existed !!!' yeah, fuck that repeat noise they already used as a goddamn excuse, seriously what is wrong with you dumb bastards ???

. . . .

ANYWAY continuing my angry late 90s hacker rant.

MSSQL is still kind of unstable on various builds of linux and so is azure data tools, since of course my beloved SMMS does not run at this time on linux.

Fuck that noise.

Seriously.

Its been 40 goddamn years assholes, port !!!!!

I'd love windows if it always worked and didnt just have this shiny appearance like :P Mac, which hid that it sometimes(often) has some serious problems.

That aside, SQL Server, from the happy coders perspective, blows away MySQL (sorry MARIADB GODDAMN ORACLE FUCK YOU AND YOUR TAKEOVER OF A WONDERFUL OPEN SOURCE PROJECT AND SUBSEQUENT DELETION OF THE COMMUNITY VERSION YOU FUCKING GARBAGE !!!!!)

And who other than chomo-mart (Walmart) uses goddamn Oracle anyway ???

I may as well use PosGreSql. Or laughs MongoDB for all the good it will do me.

No, Sql Server has wonderful programmer friendly syntax which still needs some updating, and SMMS is a nice fully featured editor that one day will solve its color themes problem once and for all !

MySQL is hella fast and can be installed on anything however, even if its syntax is crap and it doesn't let me use table variables instead forcing me to write goddamn temp table bs !

Dunno how far mysql workbench or whatever replaced it has come.

Anyway, the question is what platform to target, or what tasks can be made more.. system independent with a choice of backends or maybe I should just pregen everything and write an app server that reads index info and uses fucking sqlite !!! BUAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA

God I hate these freaks.

Anyway, quit deleting my creative writing !
