> However mono runs dog-slow compared to C# and is practically unusable Did you file a bug about this? What version of Mono were you using?

Seems like a bug.

When I wrote my comment, I was actually looking at how variables inside a method are declared, not fields (attributes, as they call it in this language) like you mention (seems like the 'variable' keyword is not for local variable

I see that immutability is not a first-class citizen in this language... mmmhhh....

Moving coins is almost-free, but not 100% free. Why would a major player want to lose money?

All opensource software is subject to scammers like this, so I think the Paint.NET author overreacted.

It's a bit sad that this program was open-source once, and then further versions got closed. (It's the other way around to what usually happens!)

Yes it's correct. F# on Linux works flawlessly. I guess what defeated you is actually ASP.NET, not F# on Linux, right? ;)

Couple of things that are still not clear to me, even when people keep saying that it's similar to C#: - How about Garbage Collection? - Many mentions to "type inference", is it then a statically-typed language? Or is it hybr

Lock-in? This is bullshit, they're simply focusing on just one product to reduce their software consulting costs. If their customers don't like that, then they can go and ask for support somewhere else (OpenStack and Linux is not

Interesting idea, but I hate the name :)

The talk isn't about Haskell. Haskell is used just as an example for most code snippets. But all arguments raised in the talk apply perfectly well to F#, and F# has much better tooling than Haskell.

> A good C# developer can use it without any problem as well. This is not true (I've been a C# dev for many years already, and I've been learning F# for the last months). It's not so easy to switch the mindset and the synt

You still haven't said the type of the app (web, desktop?), and in case of web, what technology you chose to host it (this is actually the root of many issues that people wanting to host Mono apps face, and it's kind of unrelated

Saying that mono failed for your project and that you're not going to touch it again is like saying that opensource failed for your project and you're not touching it again. Mono is a project which has a lot of different pieces of

You clearly don't understand open source. Go do some reading and later come back here. Some tips: free doesn't mean "gratis", it comes from "freedom". Therefore it is normal that the GPL uses a strategy to avoi

Exchanges are a thing of the past, use a much thinner intermediary-layer such as localbitcoins.com (only mediates, doesn't hold fiat).

How does this startup make money? After reading the blog post a bit and some comments, I still can't figure out.
