Google's longest-lived social project yet will shutter in the fall. "If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?"

It’s important for web experiences to work great on mobile devices. The latest release of the Dart includes a development version of Dartium – Chrome with the Dart Runtime – which runs on Android devices. That was fast. Didn't 1.4 come out recently (oh, a month ago)

This one actually seems more significant. A few of Dart's incremental releases have seemed pretty insignificant, but I guess that'll happen when you're churning 'em out at this pace.

It's turning enterprise IT on its head. It promises vast cost savings, shorter time to market, and continuous technology improvement. And it can't be stopped -- at least not for long. and you know the rest of that (Don't make me get Sir Ian down here!)

Aren't these people sick of their own voices yet with this garbage?
No REALLY this time. It's going to change EVERYTHING.

One ring to rule them all? If I remember well it doesn't went good for the last one who tried it...
But, really! There is no such thing 'one' - a problem brings its solution, a solution brings its tools.
NoSQL is a great addition to our toolkit, but it isn't a Swiss knife!!!

The LOTR analogy wasn't even clever. I'm not going to say InfoWorld can do better, because they really can't, but this article and its lack of tact or insight just makes me sad.

With Xamarin 3 we made F# a first class citizen. You can now use Xamarin Studio to build amazing Android and iOS apps in your favorite functional language. For the last month, the world has lifted the stigma of trying to be functional in an object oriented world.
Today, we are excited to announce “Run an F# app, get an F# shirt!” Download the F#-ified Xamarin Store app, run it, and an F# shirt will be on its way to you! The good folk at Xamarin think you need to get dressed now

One of Microsoft's main goals with 'Threshold,' the next major version of Windows, is to win over Windows 7 hold outs. Here's the latest on Microsoft's plan, according to my sources. "Together we'll stand on the threshold of a dream"

Microsoft is as thick as a brick.
This all should have been done in 8.0

Mary Jo Foley is reporting that Microsoft could be getting ready to replace its Surface branding—currently used on a PC tablet lineup—with the Lumia branding that originated with Nokia's smart phone business. "What's in a name?"

A name by any other name is still a name.

IF you call a turd and rose it doesn't magically start to smell like a flower.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

At Google I/O, the company urged developers to rethink Web pages in a componentized, composable programming model So we're back to ActiveX again, are we?

So.. Are they going to resurrect Silverlight? With Native code?!

Mozilla releases prototype versions of the Firefox browser that work with Oculus Rift and any other VR headsets. Google shows a nibble of interest for Chrome, too. "Cyberspace.

The .NET Framework was good. Really good. Until it wasn't. Why did I leave .NET? In short, it constrained our ability to choose (which is a huge deal for me) and turned our focus inward toward the perceived safety of the nest instead of the helping us experiencing all of the possibilities out there in the big, wide world.

"Not having a debugger is actually a liberating experience because it forces you to code in a different way."
Yes. Having spent so many years with (at most) the command-line OpenVMS debugger, I agree that too much reliance on a debugger can be a bad habit. Learn to do more with less.
"VS also has this really nasty habit of creating "csproj" and "sln" files. I hate those things."
Testify, brother! We didn't have those things in Turbo Pascal, we don't need them now.
"I could have probably coded C# using a simple text editor"
Which is what I do unless I need a designer.
"It's so incredibly easy to interact with SQL Server from within Visual Studio"
I never do that.
You'll never get very far if all you do is follow instructions.

I read a first person who complains on VS, The best IDE exists so far.Perhaps he might try one of those IDE available online online compiler console[^]
Wait, he left why would I care!
