    The client has no access to the DTO object. The DTO is being serialized into JSON which is transmitted to the client.

    Of course, but take for instance this piece of server-side code that takes a DTO and returns a JSON string to the client: Somewhere in your client Javascript you'll be referencing an ".AuthorName". If someone changes "AuthorName" on the server to "AuthorFirstName" or whatever, then you'll need...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Angular 1 is, but 2 is fresh off the presses. I have no doubt it's an amazing framework, but the problem I have with us going with is it that's so new that there hasn't been time for the community to run it through it's paces. Nor enough time for best practices to form, techniques discovered...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Apparently they researched all the popular client-side frameworks, including React, and decided on Angular2. It seems like they placed a HUGE amount of weight on the support of web components. Although from what I've read, web component technology hasn't really been finalized and, hell, Safari...

    Wait, what? No, Angular2just went to RC1, I believe. ASP.NETCorejust released RC2 but with significant breaking changes between RC1. I totally agree that it's a sound architecture. But is it the right architecture forus? I'm not so sure, given our complete unfamiliarity with the technologies...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    I work for a company whose bread-and-butter product is a Silverlight app. For obvious reasons we've been researching which technologies to use to re-write it from Silverlight+WCF to some standard web technology. Actually, this has been tasked to another team who has spent the better part of a...

    So what is she implying? That being a woman is good enough to earn equal pay?

    Shit, this stuff is so old the systems that run it couldn't possibly be that complicated. Easy money?

    The Flash

    Enjoyed the season for the most part, but really started to drag on towards the end. Damn it, they should've had the real Jay Garrick actually be Barry Allen from the 1990 series. That shit would've been cool. Same outfit and everything would've been a sweet nod to the original show. Oh well.

    On an unrelated note, I just converted one of my web apps used by the operations peeps to KnockoutJS and Typescript. Originally it was using some really ugly jQuery stuff and I wanted to clean it up. I must say, what they've done with Typescript is pretty damn cool. It feels like I'm...

    Actually, Webstorm is pretty damn good for Node / Javascript web app development. Lots of support for various frameworks plus a ton of useful plugins.

    Star Trek: Discovery

    I disagree. Well, from a visuals stand point I think the show still looks great. Totally unlike TOS where, when I was watching the reruns back in the early to mid 80s, the special effects, displays, analog controls, etc. all looked extremely dated. However, TNG tech-wise still looks...

    Star Trek: Discovery

    TOS : Undiscovered Country came out in 1991 during TNG run. Although no reason to begin TNG then switch to Undiscovered Country unless you want to watch everything literally in chronological order.

    Captain America: Civil War (2016)

    I'm late to the party, but just wanted to say I thoroughly enjoyed Civil War. Fun, fun, movie. Fantastic action. Loved it. However, Spider-Man is the only bit I didn't exactly care for. I think the kid did a great job, don't get me wrong, but I wish they could've cast someone slightly...

    The Flash

    They could do a better job of showing this open portal. It was my understanding that Cisco opened the portal temporarily to get Zoom, but maybe i wasn't paying attention.

    Naked and Afraid

    Wow, that was a first. 5 days in and someone goes psycho. Forced by the crew to tap out. And he seemed like a really nice dude too. I guess it's true - it's always the ones you least suspect.

    How the fuck is Zoom traveling between the two Earths? Hell, it looks like everyone is.

    Guild Wars 2

    I just never found the combat very fun. It felt like I was just mashing buttons that weren't on cool-down. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?

    Favorite Porn Star?

    Not only that, but no implants either. Women need to understand that not all guys love huge breasts.

    Okay bros - Oil Prices & Energy Stocks - time to buy?

    I just liquidated a chunk of my VTI recently. I have a feeling the market is going to take another dive soon. The Apple news today might be the catalyst.

    Better Call Saul

    Well, we know Saul doesn't lose his license. So the aftermath of all this has to be the destruction of his relationship with Chuck and Kim.

    Better Call Saul

    Also, that tape wouldn't be admissible in court, right? You can't secretly record someone without their permission. Chuck is a lawyer so obviously he knows this, so what's the point?

    Holy fucking shit. Lela Star has absolutely ruined herself: She was so gorgeous before all that cosmetic surgery and nasty tattoos.

    Fear the Walking Dead

    He's the only interesting character. They could literally kill off all other characters and I wouldn't give a shit. Actually, it would be preferable.

    Better Call Saul

    Yeah, can anyone elaborate on what that tiny change will impact? I get that Saul is sabotaging the file, just don't understand how it'll totally fuck Chuck/HHM. FWIW, I remember Breaking Bad seemed slow most episodes, but even still the hour zoomed by. Same with BCS. Love the show.

    Dark Souls 3

    Not sure how it is a "pussy mechanic". Other than potentially making boss fights easier since you could run straight back after a death.

    Dark Souls 3

    One thing I loved about DS2 is how you could keep clearing an area and mobs would stop spawning. Does this carry forward to DS3?

    Wonder Woman (2017)

    How about Gina Torres? She has actually voiced Wonder Woman in the DCU game, I believe. I like Galdot but I agree, I generally see Wonder Woman as being a bit "thicker".

    Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016)

    Just got back. Some cool moments but movie was, by and large, kinda boring. Fifteen minutes of Wonder Woman was by far the best segment. Actress looked great in that role. Major gripes for me was Batman using guns (granted was a dream/vision sequence) and Michael Cera must've been confused...
