The death of. Net and the power of perception

The death of. Net and the power of ideas

I think Microsoft has always had the problem of being unable to change many ideas around her products. A prominent example is Windows Vista, which is even well repaired. Apple has changed the impression of windows, which is even better than Microsoft itself. Microsoft has invested a lot of money to fight with Apple. Microsoft has always been careful and self-righteous, in order to maintain such as Windows, ie, office, Windows Server and. the image of these products does not hesitate to invest expensive money in the market to fight against various open source groups that are rooted in the grassroots and have no financial support. (FUD Translator: Microsoft often claims to the customer that Linux and other open-source software have no harm or harm to the customer, and promotes the overall concept of other competitor products, the fear of fear, confusion of uncertainty, and doubt are injected into the customer's mind, which makes the customer mistakenly think that they have no choice except the company's products .) The last thing I want to talk about is. net. This product is just Bill Gates crowned himself, and it is also his last legacy for Microsoft.

Let's discuss this issue.

Slashdot shows this trend

The post posted on Slashdot prompts us that this argument exists: Is. net a complete error? The debate on this issue is true or false, and even Microsoft developers have to take the case seriously.

Now let's look back at the successive jokes that have just been talked about when. Net was just released: It's almost out of control. It seems that the dressing room will be changed to male. NET and female. net in the future. Even the hardware team talked about. net, which is obviously not suitable. However, it also shows that Microsoft is not serious about the platform and seems stupid.

However, many recent reports indicate that Microsoft is planning to abandon. net. If you read Slashdot's article comment, you will find a wide debate over this platform. Maybe this is not true. Slashdot is filled with a large number of professionals who have different opinions. For example, one guy said: this does not apply to our company. We have 100 people. We use. net, earning 10 million yuan a year, And. NET is doing quite well.

Another guy retorted in his post "Windows programmers will learn to endure chaos in the years to come": This is disgusting. Every other week, I cried to the bank.
 
As you know,. NET will not disappear. It may be suitable for commercial applications, but not necessarily for some client software, especially those game software.

However, this brings about a problem: we are now more and more user-centered in the world, and the development of things proves that the user-centered thinking is not outdated and irrelevant.

Concept is 100% of reality

A company like Microsoft does not seem to have reached a level of institutional level, because she doesn't care what the truth is. She really didn't care. What do people believe. Let's look at the distorted information during the election. Some people go out because they are deemed to be selling national interests. Others are considered as heroes because they have joined the army. We have always believed that if we cannot establish our own image, we cannot guarantee our future. Microsoft and most technology companies, except Apple, do not have their own images.
 
For example, let's look at Google. Many years ago, Google was considered a savior against Microsoft's "evil empire. Now, Google's hard-built image is to earn a large amount of money to steal technical and personal information from others. She has changed from a savior to a robber. If you think this will not affect her future prospects, you will not attend their meetings.

Rim (Blackberry) is another company that cannot establish its own image later. Going downhill is a long process, but more and more ideas will be integrated into: It is already dead, but it only exists in the system. If Steve Jobs continues to allow the concept that "Apple is going downhill" from the time he takes over Apple, today's Apple will not exist. The first thing Steve Jobs came up with was to change this idea. The irony is that Bill Gates tried to stop it.

If you do not remember anything else, the concept is the reality of 100%. (Interestingly, Einstein had his own logic about this. He said: reality is just an illusion, even a very persistent thing .)

Conclusion: protecting your assets)

You may laugh at it and say that the last three letters of assets should be cut off to protect your ass ). However, the cut-off part is the most important, which is a company image. For an individual, it is the reputation to be protected. What else. net concept interesting things. If you read the comments, you will find that there are actually game developers using it. net C # And xNa studio develop games for Windows 8. (The author may express some contempt .)
 
In short, in reality. NET is being strengthened, and we feel that. NET is declining. If Microsoft does not change this concept, it may collapse one day.
 
This is the power of ideas. Ignoring it poses a great danger.

I have not found any. NET health problems. The general idea is that. net will be a competitor of Java. Once written, Windows is allowed everywhere, and. NET is doing well.
. Net programs can run on all windows, Linux, Mac and even iPhone (http://mono-project.com/Main_Page.
For Java, you cannot use it to develop crysis 3 ).

I feel that. NET is getting better and better. You can even develop games on Windows 8. However, this article's point of view is indeed dying, and it is indeed a problem.

Many conceptual issues are caused by Microsoft Softs's use of the once-loyal VB6 users. Once you abandon a group of Loyal users, it is very difficult to find them again.

Great Escape. My experience is the opposite of my article: escaping from Java to. net.
