I think they should game-ify it. 10 points for a squirrel, 30 for a raccoon, 100 for a bear, 200 for a salmon etc. with people being allowed to trade points for driving and/or cookery lessons.

Gartner revealed its top 10 strategic technology trends for the next year at its IT Symposium/Xpo 2019 conference in Orlando. Your guess is as good as theirs
But they make more money off of theirs

So after blockchain last year, they're now aiming for "practical" blockchain.
Because, despite the hype, it's still not very practical 
Stop trying to make blockchain happen. It's not going to happen.

staff received emails indicating there will soon be layoffs at the company; according to another report from the Wall Street Journal, sources say that thousands of people are slated to lose jobs but that the decision had been delayed because WeWork has only “weeks” of money left and can’t afford to pay severance.
I think the last time I saw a fail trajectory this steep was during the dot-bomb nearly 20 years ago. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

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?

That money should be used to pay all the other things. But sadly it won't...
Many bad examples of these managers getting boni while the company is having problems and the workers are paying the consequences

Does that mean that in the US legal system the company may **** their workers by not laying them off and keeping them "employed" instead, without being able to pay them?

Probably not.
But the workers will have to sue the company for wages, arrears, etc. The company will in the meantime go bankrupt, and they will probably get pennies on the dollar, after the taxmen (and possibly the banksters) have gotten their bites off the top.
There should be a 10th circle of Hell for managers who do this.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Microsoft has already said that .NET Core is the future of .NET, which means if you haven’t started, you’ll need to start migrating your existing .NET Framework applications to .NET Core. I have bad news, and I have good news

They need to add Visual Fortran support to .Net Core. If they did that, I would brush off my old FORTRAN manuals and have a go.
Note: I was very disappointed when I found out that F# was not a newer version of FORTRAN. 
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

And Visual Cobol.
And Visual Mumps.
And Visual ...

Not likely. It's unlikely, in my opinion, that .Net will no longer exist on machines. That's a long way out.
New development should be on .Net core but I don't see the need to migrate.

Still waiting for SQL Server Reporting Services support in Core. Without that, we can't even think about porting.

I ran compatibility analyzer on the .net 4.x MVC project I'm currently working on.
~80% compatible with core 3.0 the missing items almost entirely bits of low level aspnet guts that I've no idea what actually do/and thus have no clue how they could be replaced.
Conclusion; a port's not going to happen any time soon...
