If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?
Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you
Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

As a part of our ASP.NET 5 cross-platform efforts, we are actively working on making applications written in ASP.NET 5 easy to deploy and ship on Linux and Mac OS X. A while ago, we have released the first official Docker image by Microsoft: the ASP.NET 5 Preview Docker Image. "The barrier was not meant to be crossed."

The only question is: "Why?" Why would I want to do that. I love this:
we will show how a simple application
Yeah, because since you're running under Linux, you can't do anything real.
I also wonder how long that thing takes to spool up. Might try it out for sh*ts and giggles.

Because you can. Also, because perhaps your data center or main pc is linux-based but you've got some windows-based applications you want or need to run.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

And the converse is also true:

The social network that sucks up hours of your work day may soon be one of your company's critical productivity tools. Work. Facebook. One of these things does not fit the other.

After totally dropping FB (well, the acct is still there, so, more like 'separation', and I 'unfriended', 'unfollowed' and 'unLIKEd' everyone, every page, every whatever), I'm totally bored in the mornings and evenings, and I'm not as 'riled' up about "issues of the nano-second".
not being 'riled' up about "issues of the nano-second" has been the worst and best part of the separation.
Not a single FB friend has called or tweeted or IM'd me and asked "where are you?" or "Haven't heard from ya in a while".
Most don't even know I have a new job.
HA!

So the week after I buy a plastic cabinet they will hunt me with 10 others - it is obvious that if I bought one I need more!
(It happened me with a very large site...)

This is my biggest peeve with marketing analytics, and the reason I opt out or block every chance I get. It's not because I don't want "relevant ads". It's because I'm tired of advertisers thinking relevant=="regurgitate what I've already bought".
|
|
|
|
|
Yep, I would more than welcome real relevant ads as I often just don't know what would make a good fit with my last purchase. But it isn't going to happen unless some even more intrusive scanning of my web activity / emails / other communication.
As for now I know I need only one set of winter tires, but how does that ad service know I already bought them? I maybe I'm still browsing?
Why it's still showing me everywhere winter tires of every possible type and size? I just won't do any good. But show me some snow shovels and who knows?

A new study of computer science students suggests that a confidence gap exists between men and women in software development. ECMAScript is from Venus, JavaScript is from Mars
|
|
|
|
|
Among students perhaps, but I haven't seen such in the field.
|
|
|
|

I don't know. Not less capable, but I could see the confidence problem. Your mileage will vary.

Female programmers are less confident than male programmers
See this video by Sheryl Sandberg........http://www.ted.com/talks/sheryl_sandberg_why_we_have_too_few_women_leaders[^]
It speaks directly to the subject........I am sure if you sit back and think about what she is saying and relate it to the people around you, you easily begin to spot what she is talking about! I witnessed it with my wifes career progression and how she thought of herself vs her capability.

Quote: Female programmers are less confident than male programmers
Yes we are.
I think.
I might be wrong though.
Maybe I am.
I'll think about it some more.

I have noticed that the confidence we display tends to be dependent on the feedback we receive in our environment.
If you are never given the chance to prove yourself, or someone is always watching over your back, it's difficult to feel like you are doing the right thing.
One of my closest friends worked at a company for 10 years, straight out of college. She didn't advance much, and wasn't confident in her abilities. That is until she was put on a project where the lead dev didn't develop, and most of the problems were solved by her alone.
Skipping the other details, that was the catalyst to her confidence and now she works for NASA at JPL.
I didn't read the article, just sharing an anecdotal experience...

Thanks - that is great guidance (and sort of went to some of the points the article recommended). It is definitely something that may need nurturing.
