After covering the OO, generics, functional, dynamic and concurrent paradigms in C#, the remaining one is MetaProgramming.

So, I think MS is taking its time to fully complete the Roslyn Project, so they will be able to create on the fly any construct metaprogrammed the feature set of an hypothetic C# 6.

Plus, consider that more sophisticated features may require deep changes to the base infrastructure: the CLR.

Great for touch applications.

But for my productive Desktop: No, thanks (too much wasted space).

Excellent!

Very interesting and inspiring.

I can't wait for the next part

I've been using VS 2010 + .NET 4.0 + C# 4.0 since they first Beta (almost a year before), and I'm very pleased that finally they're now officially released.

 

But what I like the most is that all these stuff is not anymore the "future" but the "present" technologies. So now we can advance to talk towards a new set of "future" technologies, tools and improvements.

 

In particular, I'm very eager to see Anders Hejlsbegs talking about the new C# 5.0 (or even a new language if the changes are too dramatic to be ensembled into our loved C#), considering its PDCs and TechTalks comments about Compiler Services, Metaprograming, Immutability features.

I agree with the previous critics.

The single most used feature of the current help explorer, for me at least, is that large index where dynamic search happens.

The fact that classes and members appear next to other similiar, has helped me a lot for discover new things.

 

I'm very curious about that secret project Brian is working on.

Remembering the prior interviews I can think of some cues:
Physics + Simulation + 3D + Functional Programming  = *?* (will Rock!)

Happy Birthday Channel 9!

Hi,
Where is the whitepaper available since weeks ago?

Suggestion: Put a video about Error Handling including async web services request and things like that.

Nice, funny and very interesting joke, even inspirational.

Other guy with less credibility than Brian wouldn't make the same effect.

It makes me think ...

Today I can buy a 300GB hardisk at low cost, but still the mechanical factor makes it slow for loading Windows, VisualStudio, games and so on...  Year by year the disk is bigger, but is not so faster. 

So... thinking in year 2012 I hope not to have a market with 10TB disks still suffering with the "impedance mismatch" (if i can say it) of mechanical pieces. I would preffer to have a 100GB storage device, but purely electronic, fast and persistent.

Anybody knows if that kind of technology exists today, at least as a protoype? I mean...  somenthing like a beyond-flash memory. Where are the links/articles about them?

I think the hard disk (for day-to-day working) should be the next piece on a museum, following the CRTs and Diskettes.
