I think the killer app is doing video calls in coffee shops without disturbing my neighbors.

I can 100% guarantee that I lack the Mentat level of discipline necessary to prevent my true inner thoughts from leaking out in the middle of a conference. I'd also be the first to inadvertently summon the giant squid from Sphere.

I’ve been getting my daily news recap from 1440. It keeps to the claim of unbiased summaries and is the length I’ve been looking for.

This! Also look at Chartr, a (sibling? similar?) newsletter with interesting data.

I agree with the author about the slow inner loop experience. Recompiling the whole app to see browser changes gets tiring. The .NET team is planning a series of updates to address this in .NET 6. https://github.com/dotnet/core/issues/5510

I also dislike the default workflow for dealing with Nuget forks. I switched to Paket for dependency management which makes this much simpler. https://fsprojects.github.io/Paket/

This is already bearing fruit in the latest preview: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/announcing-net-6-previ...

I also saw this lovely update for Xamarin.Forms users https://twitter.com/drasticactionSA/status/13802626828724428...

This is a very strange criticism given that F# was the first language to have a REPL and nowadays most web projects also have a compilation step.

Do you mean The first dotnet language?

tasogare · on April 9, 2021

Yes of course, I forgot that word.

Actually no, because on the release CD of Common Language Runtime, and the alphas and betas that preceded it, Microsoft collaborated with several companies and universities to have various languages available at lunch date.

Many of which did have a REPL.

Also the dynamic language runtime originally designed for Iron languages, Python and Ruby, precedes F#.

I’ve been keeping an eye on freetime (https://getfreetime.app/) for the first issue in your list. No O365 support yet though.

Would love to see the comparison analysis. Are you planning to publish it?
