AAC and A52 can be troublesome if you are in the United States. But I kid you not that if you change your time zone to a place in Canada, it magically works. If you do a search you will see some posts about this.

OR better — they can shove the new TLDs so far up their ass that they choke on them.

As a web developer, you might target the W3C specifications, but you don't test against them. You would test on a number of browsers. Unless you don't do tests... https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

But the concept of broadening the tax base is great from a government perspective. The broadening at this point would be better understood as diversifying sources of taxes — so that interruptions in any one area do not affect the whole (unless it is a systematic decline, like a recession).

I have looked at the language, and although I am an 'Apple Guy', I haven't done much with it yet. The language itself looks like a really really nice language for some of this sort of thing, but I mainly would want it for general purpose — so I agree with your parent that for this application s/he shouldn't look at it. However, if it becomes freely available as a compiler and multiplatform (with libraries) it would be worth a serious look at.

Is it possible they were so high in their walled garden that they couldn't perceive or predict possible backlash?
