Using the code below, I can pull the text from a file and store it in a string. I'd like to be able to do the same thing with a web site ... perhaps www.cnn.com. How can you do this? StreamReader objStreamReader = File.OpenText("c:\somefile\blah.txt"); //Replacing this with a URL errors out. string strMyString = objStreamReader.ReadToEnd(); objStreamReader.Close(); Thanks in advance.

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
