    Same here, I really liked this show at first but now find myself fiddling with the tablet while it's playing.

    Draegan sold the site to MMORPG.com

    All's I gotta say is, Rere forums on my tablet are 10000% better.

    RIP Jerry Doyle aka Michael Garibaldi of Babylon 5

    No kidding. The cast of B5 have been cursed. That said, Babylon 5 is probably my favorite sci-fi series of all time. What sucks is that I try my best to get friends to watch it, but they can never get out of season 1 before giving up.

    Uh, was Molly trying to commit suicide? Not sure what she was taking but a couple mouthful of pills can't be good.

    Star Trek Beyond (2016)

    I saw this last night and thought it sucked ass. I went into it not knowing the story, but was hoping it would have some reference to a TOS story or character like the second movie did. But nope, just some random bad buy. I find it hilarious that the captain of the Franklin found...

    Yeah, probably a mixture of Bootstrap and jQuery UI. There's the mandate that our app have the "look and feel" of a desktop application. So no huge icons and fonts, nor do we want that flat styling that's prevalent in contemporary CSS frameworks. UIKit is the closest thing I've found so...

    Does anyone know of a CSS framework that has styling similar to jQuery UI? That is, it more closely resembles a desktop application style rather than the largish buttons and fonts that have become popular during the mobile era.

    What is it that you're not "feeling"?

    So I re-worded my Google search and actually found one solution atUsing Typewriter to Strongly-Type Your Client-Side Models and Services - Kamranicus. Interestingly, Typescript eases this pain with it's interfaces (which I totally forgot about). It still involves updating the Typescript...

    See, that's what my point is: there is now extra burden to make sure both the client and server code are in sync. That is why I'm advocating that we keep it all server-side. We, forourproduct, don't really gain anything by investing heavily into a client-side framework. It would be...

    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...

    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...

    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...
