protip: make your own docker image that inherits from one where dotnet restore has been run. That way each subsequent run in DEVELOPMENT will happen in seconds as opposed to minutes. I've been trying to get a PR Shepparded though the M

No, dotnet CLI is coming along for sure. I was watching the community stand-up on Tuesday where Scott Hanselman and Damien Edwards discussed the reasoning in a little more detail. They were pretty clear that they wanted to make sure they ad

This just happened to me this morning! They've added a "lock screen override" with ads. Proper interruptive & misleading model tricks you into turning it on ("you just plugged in your phone, enable rapid charger?&qu

I loved project.json but the justification was acceptable in my opinion. There are literally billions of dollars of existing customer software built with CSPROJ files. Moving forward with ONE file type and one set of build tools is the best

I'm sorry, I inaccurately paraphrased - a more accurate statement would be that he appears to perform better in open primaries. You're right that Overwhelmingly well was a massive oversimplification and exaggeration. More accura

That was a bit "cargo cult" and NLP for my tastes. "The magnetic strip makes you think if debt which is bad" There's no evidence that thinking of debt (a) happens or (b) is bad The whole post feels like that to me.

It's almost like a long-slow-great-depression. We can see these trends (average house price in Toronto / Vancouver exceed $1m) but nothing happens to reverse them. Plodding and lumbering forwards, the depression continues. Recentl

Based on all the other comments in the thread, I wonder if we updated to language we used if our goals would be clearer. Why not replace the phrase "lose weight" with "become slimmer"? We're not actually concerned w

yes and no of course ... yes dotnet cli will be exactly this and it will be GREAT (IMO) but it isn't actually "out" yet (you can get your hands on it but it will be buggy) still, will be 100% fantastic.
