This is a good example[1] at 64k LOC removal. We removed built-in support for C# + WinRT interop on Windows and instead required users to use a source-generation tool (which is still the case today). This was a breaking change. We realized

This excellent presentation (Veritasium) is making much the same point (learning comes from “reps”). https://youtu.be/0xS68sl2D70?si=rXg5_wjg4bEdMalw

I quite enjoyed both series. They are not similar (as you implicitly suggest). Wayfarer bugged me at first because each book is a massive departure from the next (somewhat like Ender 1 and 2). As much as it pained me to leave the characters

This is all true. The only part that is potentially misleading is that the target doesn't need to be a blog. A blog is a fine target, however. The key activity is spending time to articulate a message with enough clarity that another p

Dive is great. Tools like that are critical for both learning and developing confidence on what you are precisely building/shipping. Dredge is another tool to look at. I use it for diffing layers. https://github.com/mth

The bulleted list in the design point section is intended as a high-level summary. We may do another post later that is part-way between the bulleted list and the post as a whole. Perhaps that would be the last post in the series.

We started with Red Hat. They were our .NET Core 1.0 launch partner (and remain a very close partner). You can run Red Hat on-prem or in the cloud (obviously).

We maintain container images for both Linux and Windows. I can tell you that they both get a LOT of use (>10M pulls/month). .NET is very much a cross-platform app stack. Also, we get plenty of bug reports on Linux (which we diligent

Big fan of this book. It's incredibly forward-thinking and can be read in an evening. Absolutely recommended if you have not read it.

I've read that one. It's good, but not nearly as good as her other writing. I'm always torn by whether I like the earthsea or Hainish series better. She also has many wondering short stories, some of which borrow from her lon

Good and fair call. I softened the wording on digest comparisons. I sympathize with your pet peeve and like your apt example. I wrote the article (although you probably figured that out). Oh, and thanks for caring so much about reproducibil

That's the same thing as comment about float. Warren Buffett frequently talks about float. At Berkshire, they attempt to both sell premiums at a fair price AND win with float. Seems to have worked well for them.

.NET was built in the time of early Java, and so has many similar characteristics: virtual machine with a garbage collector, executes compiled processor- and OS-independent binaries, supports multiple languages, and a large class library. A
