>"unfuck" the core architecture of Visual Studio. This is likely the reason we don't have a 64bit Studio too- just too much of a pain. Their arguments re speed and memory usage have been going on for years while I've

> VSCode vs Visual studio are not competing efforts Yet. Little by little, rather than invest in windows-only vstudio, they'll enhance code until it's building all the same stuff as studio and then they'll announce how ama

You don't feel that it's appropriate to ask a "Sr or higher" candidate questions such as: "'how many requests per second can we handle given this hardware', 'how much memory do we really need- if we q

God I love those questions. They're essentially essay questions- come up with reasonable-enoguh assumptions and get on with business. We don't do a -ton- of stuff like that, but I've found that if you can't estimate with

No, but I view MS as a collection of employees desperate to learn what they need for the next job now. Hence, the total apparent lack of desire to do anything new and innovative ("Let's copy AWS! Genius!").

I bought a winPhone Series 7 in 2010 the day it came out. It was the first phone I'd bought since 2003 that didn't let you add your own ring tones- you couldn't even buy them. It took them about a year to add copy and paste c

actually, really DO care about containers. What I'm caring less and less about is MSFT. The feeling is mutual- they just really don't give a fuck about you if you're doing anything but using Azure though. I'm finding tha

Hey, remember when the first phone came out and you couldn't even upload a ringtone? How about how it didn't have copy/paste functionality for about a year- I believe they stole this feature from the first iPhone. Then their
