Correct


I don't get it. Please explain. Is it the weird dollar sign on the stone?


That's an IHS with the letters imposed on one another. It's short for 'ihsous', Greek for Jesus.


Fun fact: the actual "dollar" sign is actually a P and an S superimposed, as it's actually a symbol for "peso".

And actually the dollar sign started out as two pillars with ribbon banners wrapped around them in an S shape, not as a P-S.


Given the context, I think that says "IHS". There are a variety of IHS symbols, some can be confused as a dollar sign.

I am struggeling so hard... IT departments of two customer companies just moved VMs with a one week deadline to Azure and everything stopped working and I have the responsibility as external developer...

Weird SSL errors I have no clue how to fix. I think they are talking about my clients in this reddit post.


> Weird SSL errors

Wild stab in the dark: the only things that would kill SSL/TLS on a disk-image based lift & shift where the certificates and associated config moves with the VM are:

- An internal Certificate Revocation List (CRL) Distribution Point (CDP) was forgotten about and not moved along with everything else. These are often Enterprise PKI certificate authorities on servers like AD domain controllers. Admins will typically deploy new domain controllers in the cloud, and move everything else. They'll forget the old CAs and maybe even turn them off. This then causes SSL issues after... about a week.

- Another possibility is that they incorrectly moved an outbound access restriction. Again, overzealous network security admins tend to block Internet access on servers and forget about CRLs. It's an especially common issue on "secure" environments where someone decides to block HTTP outbound and only permit HTTPS because it's "secure". However, CRLs (and OCSP) absolutely require HTTP and will never work via HTTPS by design.


Azure stopped supporting TLS 1.1 recently as well.

If these are old systems, it could be this... if they're running .NET apps compiled against framework pre... 4.7? 4.8? TLS ain't gonna work...


They would only be affected by the Azure TLS changes if they already used Azure APIs while on-prem, which would be unusual for an on-prem-to-cloud lift & shift.


How is the text-fade-in effect done? I like it!


It's soooo sloooow. But yeah it's nicely done


Where is the .NET / C# in the data? :(


Packed under Blazor.


I am waiting for some autogenerated CRUD tool like this for ages and it basically really looks awesome! Already tried it out with 200+ tables, but is there a way to get controls for collection navigation properties? E.g. to enable easy many-to-many management.

This is the one thing I miss everywhere and which prevents me to continue with my interactive encyclopedia project :(


It works already for navigation properties but not for many-to-many cases. I guess it's something we will add in future updates. could you please submit an issue about this?


Jokes aside... Without C#, life would ♭flat


You can access your database directly from your view-code in ASP.NET Core Blazor. Best technology for the web ever created, period.


I was also very hyped at first when I saw this... But it seems like there are only 14 distinct videos available which are loaded from youtube: https://www.thismusicvideodoesnotexist.com/assets/urls.json
