Some of the shenanigans I've seen recently from MS employees in the .NET Core and JS space doesn't inspire me with confidence... For all of Nadella's "turning over a new leaf", it will still take a generation to cha

Hmmm I evaluated a lot of those (mainly OSM-based) geocoders recently. Unfortunately the quality of results is orders of magnitude worse than Google. The only ones that even came close were Mapbox, Mapquest and Here.

Having grown up in Australia and lived my adult life in the UK and Switzerland, it is hard to argue with the result. The level of care in CH is outstanding, even at the basic level. The NHS is very good when it's good (eg. IMO emergenc
