A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Even some shops working with Windows Server are asking "wait, why are we paying for these licenses?"
Then it comes down to whether it's cheaper to rewrite legacy applications or continue to pay for licenses.
My former employer made this decision recently. They moved off .NET and onto a web app with a RHEL server. Time will tell if they pull it off.
