GeneralRe: Do you ever get that feeling that somebody read an article you wrote, and then decided to make a Pluralsight course pointing our all of your mistakes? Pin

I can understand Dead | X| icon for VB6, but what did VB.NET do to earn this?

Sure, it looks a lot like VB6, but it behaves (and compiles into same ILM) as C#. I'm seeing lots of bad code in QA forum which are mostly in C#...so what gives?

Why not C# Dead | X| ?

It has worst "feature" of any language - its keywords are case sensitive. For years it had worse debugger then VB.NET and is still catching up in some areas (returns of functions in Watch window), it still has worse autocomplete / intellisense.

Note that I work in C# out of necessity and VB.NEt out of preference. VB6 and VBScript when I have to (and I hate it) - so I know what I'm talking about. Do you?
