That isn't a reasonable take. Failing to teach a language by enumerating all its features is an indictment of the instructor and not the language.

Almost all of this is incorrect or comparing apples to oranges.

.net framework and .net core are runtime and standard library impl, not languages. C# is a language that can target either runtime or both. Framework is still supported today, and you can still use most modern C# language features in a project targeting it. WPF and Maui are both still supported and widely used. ASP predates .net - c# was never a supported language in it. ASP.net core has largely replaced ASP.net, but it's again a library and framework, not a language feature.

Dynamic in c# and the dlr are definitely not widely used because it's both difficult to use safely and doesn't fit well with the dominant paradigm of the language. If you're looking for STD lib warts binaryserializer would have been an excellent example.

If it's anything like how Azure handles this kind of issue, it's likely "lots of people have experienced it, a restart fixes it so no one cares that much, few have any idea how to figure out a root cause on their own, and the process to find a root cause with the vendor is so painful that no one ever sees it through"

Yeah that's a nice thought, but it ignores a whole lot of recent evidence to the contrary.

1. They didn't take down an obvious banking scam site that was hiding behind their service

2. They forwarded my "report phishing content" submission, including contact information, to the scammer, resulting in a roughly 100x increase in the amount of spam I receive and ensuring that I won't ever use their reporting function again

It's in the same paragraph...

> I have a foreboding of an America in my children's or grandchildren's time — when the United States is a service and information economy; when nearly all the manufacturing industries have slipped away to other countries; when awesome technological powers are in the hands of a very few, and no one representing the public interest can even grasp the issues; when the people have lost the ability to set their own agendas or knowledgeably question those in authority

They aren't engaging in good faith. You're better off not responding.
