@dplattsf If you use a token generator to write tests, you are not testing at all. That's like saying you do science by quoting the bible...

@nietras I am not sure what the issue is right there, because to me the inconsistent behavior always felt like a bug. Personally I always try to avoid edge cases with floats for platform weirdness reasons, so while I'm personally not affected, what is the big issue with this fix?

@menelion As far as I know there is not a single UI framework our there that is fully WCAG 2 compliant out of the box. So depending how much accessibility you want, the more effort you have to put in, there's no shortcuts. All your mentioned options beside WinForm a decent out of the box. If you go for multi-platform approaches you will always have some sort of workarounds but speaking of Uno, it will use as many native UI elements as possible if you actually prefer this.

@menelion Well, IMO accessibility is not a framework, platform or middle ware problem but an implementation one. With enough effort you can make anything highly accessible with everything. When it comes to cross-platform, only Avalonia and Uno are an option because you want to support Linux Desktop in 2026. Personally I prefer Uno because I like a code first/XML free approach, but if you don't mind messing around with XML, Avalonia is also a good choice.

@nietras Personally I would have preferred closed enums over unions, but I get it, trend chasing is important. Otherwise we would have never be blessed with the genius of single/multi-cast delegates.

@alvinashcraft Oooh, you have to be really careful with that name or you get banned. It's correctly written #microslop ;-)

@svelmoe Well, it's a bit of an unreliable hack... at this point I would just extract the migration code into a separate console app and the problem is solved. Not really that much effort IF a functional CD pipeline is already in place. If even that one is missing, then oh boy, good luck, I guess 🙂

@svelmoe I'm confused. The correct way to handle this is shutting the application completely down with an error code and having the container restart after a grace period. Failed migrations are a serious thing and should never ever happen when the code was properly tested - not to mention NOT BEING PART OF THE APPLICATION ITSELF, so you have some serious tech debt on your hands there.

@devleader Honestly from my personal experience Mongo isn't that great, it overkill as a local storage DB and it sucks as a client-server mid-tier DB where better alternatives are available. It's not suitable as a big-data DB either. So it sits in a weird spot of no being great at anything really. So yeah, there's no direct replacement because IMO nobody wanted to make another flawed product 🙂
