Great improvements to Rx Bart.  Keep the good stuff coming...

Over the years, following Rx videos on C9; it has helped me to think outside IEnumerable box; to solve problems in more declarative/reactive way using Rx Operators.

With tremendous performance improvements; Rx just got a great boost for real-time systems (which can't be build with IEnumerable mind-set).

Great video.  Can't wait to find out what Erik been up to... LINQ; RX, .... what is next?  Last we heard was something with native C++...

I hope F# team will have free hand and resources to continue pioneer work in language features... and in turn we get benefit of their work in C#... kudos to C#, F# and VB.NET teams... .NET Power!  Platform for many programming languages, under one runtime.

Following and using F# allows to stay on forefront of new language developments... async workflows, generic invoke, TypeProviders... domain exploration, and so much more... keep up the amazing features coming...  I have used F# for prototyping financial calculations for a bank; really extremely pleasant development experience.

Out of all BUILD talks... this and 813T are of interest to me... both are not published... is legal and marketing still in editing room with scissors?

JavaScript = "Hacking" kludge scripts, targeting => lowest common denominator

I felt compelled to add my own disenchantment about the "in the browser" help system for VS2010, after using it for few months ... it is slow and a form of torture to use it.  It is a step backwards... Where is the kick a** WPF based Document Explorer?

What is wrong with WSDL?   Can someone elaborate what is wrong with it from the design perspective?  Consuming a service that exposes WSDL is easy to consume in Visual Studio.

Is HTML dead yet? 

 

JavaScript + HTML + CSS + Stateless server + PostBack String Values = Crappy Developer Experience

What captured my attention is when Anders spoke about elegance, taste and simplicity in writing software.  I can not count how many times applying simplicity to problem, instead making wild ideas that compound complexity have paid off in long run.  Taste, for me at least is being able to evaluate various approaches, and selecting one that is most elegant and cleanest.  Unfortunely I see the opposite in code written by others, who suffer the consequences of their clumsy (kludgy) actions.
