It is no coincidence that C# and TS are similar. They are created by the same person, Anders Hejlsberg. The C# language may have some baggage from back in the day, but at least it has a very good, non-fragmented ecosystem. While Typescript

Allocations are pretty cheap, but GC can be quite expensive under high load/big heap. It is probably not the first optimization you would need to make, but allocaitons have been a huge focus by the .net core team, and is part of the re

While they do not provide any benchmarks in the summarizing article, I can guarantee that they have done some (read: alot) profiling. I follow both Nick Craver and Marc Gravell on Twitter, and they regularly post benchmarks for optimization

The ban is not negative; pretending it has lead to a meaningful reduction in plastic ocean waste is. I think the reason most people are negative to the ban is that a great deal of resources has been spent on something that tries to solve a

From my experience, definitely go with the second approach. Try to spend a lot of time initially defining the events with domain experts. Designing events that map well to the domain in the first place is the hardest, but also the most impo

Wool. A wool undershirt, thick wool sweater and wind-proof, water-proof jacket has kept me comfortable down to about -15C. You can pickup some really nice gear on the cheap from army surplus sales in Norway at least, but I think it's t

I don't know how effective they are compared to these devices, but I much prefer to keep plants with air purifying qualities. NASA did a study on a variety of air purifying plants in 1989: https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.j

I think most people willing to change their diet for the sake of the environment already are well aware of the consequences of meat eating. In my opinion it would be more beneficial to focus campaigns on the problem of food waste which I am
