But in your case you have a good reason to go web, and looks like your users accept the performance penalty. Also most of your work is done in the server side so in this case makes sense to have a web application. What annoys me is when brats come wanting to convince me that web application is "the magic solution to all problems of the World" (even when it does not make any sense your application be web based), and that those who do not believe in them are fools.

Comment This again? (Score 5, Informative) 276

Again this bullshit?

- Flawless 24/7 connection to the internet is plain impossible and any application that does not take this into consideration is a piece of shit;

- Your data on a third-party server is always a security problem waiting to happen;

- Browsers cannot provide the exact same features of a native application without the idea of them being completely rethink;

- When a web application has successfully emulate a desktop application it usually costs double or triple in computational resources to do the same thing as a native application;

- HTML is not designed for making desktop GUI applications, it need a ridiculous amount of very ugly hacks do to things that are done easily using native GUIs;

That said, of course there are tasks where a web application is useful... But it is foolish to believe that so any task task can be done in a web application.

So, why bother with them? Better to carry on your own life alone.

What the problem is with the attitude of you? Did I offend your mother given the level of aggression that I see in the way you write? Look, read again what I wrote. I even said that no one has yet built one for not having idea how to do, but that does not mean that therefore the idea "is completely impossible and anyone who says otherwise is a fool". Geez! Only because you do not know how to do, so nobody can do? I also do not know how to make one, but I do not arrogantly assume that therefore no one can.

Looks like you are yet another troll... Say to me where is a attack nuclear submarine on patrol on this moment, smartass. Is a bit more difficult than you think to find one, why do you think a submarine aircraft carrier will be much easier to find than an conventional aircraft carrier?

Comment Re:Subs as aircraft carriers (Score 1) 75

well, I think you do not really get the idea. The purpose of a submarine like this is be able to deliver their aircraft close to the enemy without being seen, launch the attack (which will appear to have come out of nowhere, with little or no warning) and then leave again without being seen. A conventional aircraft carrier would have to navigate to the enemy being visible all the time before he could launch their aircraft, same for a aircraft using mid-air refueling.

The only problem with the idea is that nobody knows (yet?) how to make a submarine large enough to carry a reasonable number of aircraft and able to launch/recover them fast enough to avoid getting too long on the surface.
