My description is highly accurate for virtually all urban
areas within the US.  No matter how affluent the neighborhood
or district, a "ghetto slum" is never more than a few minutes
away.

The GPS is integrated into the car, you'd have to pull the entire dash 
board out to get the music system out as well which would only fit in 
another similar model Mercedes. In the unlikely event that should 
happen, I've got insurance and the car would be replaced, meanwhile I'd 
drives the wife's new Audi. Nice car, I love driving that.

I live in a small town in the UK. Crime rates are very low, I've even 
gone and left my keys hanging out the front door and having spotted them 
in the morning berated myself for being forgetful but never afraid that 
we would get burgled.

It's attainable, it just depends how much you want it and how hard you 
are willing to work. I grew up in a slum area, my parents were poor.

No, I mean LINQ, or "language integrated query," which is
another Microsoft gimmick to build an unshakable dependence among
programmers on its .NET suite.

LINQ is used in place of ordinary SQL to construct database queries.

Using LINQ, I can construct a two-table join statement with only
a little trouble.  But moving up to a three-table join requires ...
... well I haven't figured it out yet.  I'd need to spend a few days
studying the references I think.

With ordinary SQL, a three-table join, or more, is NO problem.

Way to go Microsoft!  Keep those lackeys irredeemably hooked!

Now, some will now jump into the fray with a defense of LINQ.
After all ,it does provide compile-time, as opposed to run-time
syntax checking.  But LINQ and .NET are nothing more than an
insidious trap.

By the way, at my last count, the .NET suite contains at least
EIGHT separate and distinct sets of classes for database access,
each with its own universe of methods and properties.
Is that bloated confusion or what?

Give me Linux, C, and a SQL driver any day.

Or do what most professionals do and get yourself on a course and

It abstracts the exact machine code. But whatever, not worth a semantic
debate.

Also fewer abstractions which allow you to think in higher terms.

I am so sick of your limited and shallow kind.

For one thing, who do you think creates the stuff that allows
you to utilize your cherished abstractions?

Also, abstractions are NOT excluded from assembly language
programming.  They just never leave the programmers head
to assume an independent symbolic form.

Said the idiot who tried to sell the ridiculous idea that a commonly used term, blanks, isn't "correct" when referring to "white space" as based on some 'rule' he has stuck up his idiotic ass ;)

I believe you that you are sick.

I do not deny you are ill.

All anyone needs to know is that coding directly in Assembly means that
your code will take full advantage of the machine's power. No slowdowns,
just full speed.

Yes.  But also the problems of caching and pipelining can also be more
readily addressed.

Furthermore, the API is directly available as system calls and so writing
very complex assembly code is not that intractable.
