Well programming is one piece of the puzzle. I also miss the days when qbasic was preinstalled and easily accessible. But what worries me more is the actual deployment of the application you write, which is getting more and more complex qui

Good post. I really hoped for some f# code after listing all those scenarios where c# fails. Anyway. I work in a c# shop with a large monolithic code base developed by a small team with lots of fluctuations over more than 10 years. I have n
