Ok, to clarify.
The web/app config files <i>of themselves</i> are ok. Better than Registry entries 
Working with them, however, is a pain.
There's very little intellisense, and finding out <i>what</i> you need to add is difficult.
Yes, I am proposing something better - Visual Studio should have a GUI tool to create these files,
with drop-down menus of choices, check-boxes for true/false options, etc.

I certainly don't mind the idea of them (e.g. place to put connection strings and other straightforward config stuff), but I agree they are mysterious and verbose in other areas.

Remember, these configuration thingies, including dependency injection and other modern architectures, are for turning your glorious compiled language into BASIC. Not even into Visual BASIC.

I hate config files of any description

You think the default web app web.config files are bad in their vanilla form, just wait until you have to deploy into a secure environment. The Web.config is just one link in an inheritance chain that flows down from %WinDir%\System32\intetsrv\config\Applicationhost.config through each application directory to your web site's directory.
You haven't lived until you've had to walk every config file in this chain to find the one that has a duplicate ISAPIRestriction or Authentication tag definition (this breaks the entire IIS worker process).

Now is it bad enough that you let somebody else kick your butts without you trying to do it to each other? Now if we're all talking about the same man, and I think we are... it appears he's got a rather growing collection of our bikes.

Next update isn't due so soon.

So, they've improved it?
I thought HTML help was completely broken in Edge, since day one?

Every time I try to use edge, it just pisses me off. I can't wait until the next mandatory OS update that won't run Chrome... you'll find me in the padded room.

I can do that. I'm just so busy with real work - what are you suggesting? A shift (careful typing that), to linux completely then use Wine? Or perhaps Linux and run Windows in a VM for the development activities?

New Zealand rocket launch[^]
Great opportunity for the country since there's no one here and air traffic is very low compared to the northern hemisphere. Will be able launch anytime.
