Microsoft open sourced Bond, a cross-platform framework for processing schematized data. Bond supports cross-language serialization/deserialization and powerful generic mechanisms for efficiently manipulating data. For those who like their data shaken, not stirred.

One disadvantage of writing code in a high-level programming language is the potentially significant decrease in performance. Ideally, you should write understandable, maintainable code—without compromising performance. Of course you all chisel your code into silicon, so you have no need for optimizations.
Plus, the rest of the MSDN magazine for the month: Roslyn, Smart Unit Tests, and more.

I know it once cost me some hours of debugging... Was trying to get to a certain point in my code. The breakpoint never hit and I couldn't inspect certain variables.
After hours of trying, restarting and Googling I found out I was building in release mode and some of the code I was debugging was optimized out 
I'm not falling for that again...

That's a fun one. You can always call DebugBreak though.

It wasn't fun at the time
Debug.Break(); did work, but I couldn't inspect my variables

U.S. Federal Communications Commission Chairman Tom Wheeler is expected to issue a proposal this week that would see the agency classify internet access as a telecommunications utility, a move that may also include reclassification for data services from wireless carriers. "And again, the Internet is not something you just dump something on. It's not a big truck. It's a series of tubes."

The new Software Recovery website allows users to create a Windows 7 install DVD or USB. "We're sending you back to the future!"
|

I kept reading that as a "recovery site" for W7 users. As in, like a 12 step program or a counseling program.
That said:
What they didn't realise however is there was no easy way of going back, and if said user didn't backup their previous install, they may have just lost out on their Windows 7-ness.
Wow. How dumb can people be?

I see dumb people. Walking around like regular people. They don't see each other. They only see what they want to see. They don't know they're dumb. All the time. They're everywhere.
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?

The most important IT career skills aren't necessarily technical. Communication, negotiation, team-building and conflict resolution are all critical to IT success, especially in leadership positions. No, they're not talking about your seat

Actually, in leadership positions, the key skills are unqualified self confidence, unquestioning and rigid application of corporate policy, Pavlovian belief in the hierarchical structure and willingness to perform human sacrifice for the chance to sit nearer the C-level offices....and it helps if you can persuade others that this behaviour is normal by writing articles for CIO to that effect.
