In an attempt to correct many perceived deficiencies in Entity Framework Core, Microsoft is introducing 40 breaking changes to EF Core 3. If it ain't fixed, break it

Never before, in the history of microsoft products, has the term "breaking changes" been more appropriate, in all the wrong ways.
We will fight them on the facebook, we will fight on the twitterlands, we will fight in the office and in the streets, we will fight in the message boards; we shall never surrender.
We shall defend our UX.

For the last 4 years at Packt we’ve been running Skill Up – a survey that aims to capture everything that’s important to the developer world when it comes to work and learning. If all the other kids jumped into a container, would you do it too?

Microsoft and Oracle announced a new alliance today that will see the two companies directly connect their clouds over a direct network connection so that their users can then move workloads and data seamlessly between the two. "Dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!"

Can we spell "illegal price-fixing", children?

I didn't see anything about prices, mostly just being able to move data and authentication. I suspect both have very large customers that want to put some of their data on Oracle's service (which is really expensive, but does seem fast) and the rest on Azure. Oracle's cloud share is minuscule and both together are still dwarfed by Amazon. (Now if any of the non-Amazon companies team up with Amazon....)

You can rest assured that "monetize" will be one of the most-used words in their meetings about it.

The guys at the conference were aware that he's not really a scientist and inventor, weren't they?
Sheesh.

Roll on the improvements in 3D animation, so that "actors" will have to get proper jobs, like the rest of us -- they'll go back to bussing tables, probably, which is all most of them are good for.

Sure but it's still fun saying "Matt Damon" in that Team America voice whenever I read something that mentions his name.

Hey! I'd forgotten that there's another way to say his name!

Testers are being asked to rate the menu and provide feedback Oh, don't get them started
|
|

|

Sure.
I'll do it as an open letter:
Drear microsoft,
Classic Shell works very well, ta very much.
That combination of a single, alphabetical list of baby blocks with the ridiculously annoying panel of variable-sized baby blocks next to it, however, is yet another productivity killer and focus-breaker, even with live tiles disabled.
Baby blocks are not even needed on phones (have you seen the size of the virtual keys that people use to send texts at breakneck speed?), so why anyone would think that they would be appropriate for 27" and 32" monitors, I have no idea.

Now for my CP response.
BleepingComputer said: Asking for feedback has been a big thing ever since Nadella took the reins of the company
I don't honestly see that there's any point in asking for feedback if no-one is going to act on it.
99% of people didn't want baby blocks, but they're still there.
99% of people didn't want the effluent ribbon, but it's still there.
99% of people didn't want the lollipop pop-ups on tables (which killed vital table functions), but they're still there.
100% of people don't want disappearing scrollbars, but they're still there (except when they're not) -- and now there's not even a way to disable that focus-killing function.
etc.
I'll bet he only asks for feedback because he gets his giggles from seeing how many people he's pissed off.
