Nice article but it seems obvious to me the .NET team should throw away AzureDevOps as the queue wait time is the major bottleneck. Run bare metal build servers. Maybe there are justifications not to do this, but the article skips the eleph

I know quite a few developers who have a knack for following market trends and jumping on the rocket ship before it is about to launch. It's actually not that hard if you think about what filter you would apply. The one hard part is f

Why is Mozilla Firefox written in Rust, then? The last time I looked at browser benchmarks was in 2016 when Google released benchmarks to brag about its performance over Firefox and Edge. It appears Webkit has released JetStream2 to benchm

I can tell you that developer salaries are growing. I have tried telling my senior management that the average senior developer salary in Boston will go from 120k in 2014 to 140k by 2017. I don't think that 16% can be called "ex

Just simple advice. 1. The problem of adding more input types, as well as expressing more functions over existing and additional (unbound) input types, is a classical computer science problem called The Expression Problem. 2. It's real

Also, why does your ampersand-forms code return string objects for error messages? Seems very limiting, and a pain in the butt to extend. If you have a getErrorMessage() method, why aren't you returning an ErrorMessage object, which

Dart, TypeScript, or any other similar strongly typed language that compiles down to JavaScript while still looking quite a bit like JavaScript.

You don't link to it clearly enough. I also had a "just show me the code" reaction, and all I saw was the example of how to create a restful collections module.

Thanks for the objection. I have never heard of Reactive, React, or Ripple. I don't understand how this is better than Knockout, which has been around since 2006? To summarize your objection, this library hardwires events to the UI. I
