Once VisualStudio for Mac killed all its IDE features, it was a matter of time before it was killed.
No UI designers, no profiling, lack of tooling for the ecosystems it intended to support (Info.plist).

If I could give one piece of advice to myself in my 20s, it would have been to develop my own language and compiler so I wouldn’t be at the mercy of megacorps.
Don’t use other people’s products. They’ll only hurt you in the end.

Seeing a lot of QTs reminding the @Canes of their commitment to disrupt racism on and off the ice. This includes not rewarding racist behavior with a shiny new contract. #GetUncomfortable (-rh)

One note:
The President did not “catch” coronavirus. He IGNORED the advice of doctors, MOCKED the science, put himself in RISKY situations and once exposed, he refused to self Quarantine and ENDANGERED the lives of hundreds of people around him.

Your campaign was so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.

Reply or RT if you're a #dotnet developer or if you know somebody to follow.

Shortly after joining Microsoft I met some of our customer research teams that help turn feedback into actionable info. I was blown away by the effort MS puts into listening to customers. Feedback doesn't go into a black hole, it goes to ppl that care about our customers!
Same goes for the VS Mac team! We're always eager for your feedback. From the main menu, just click "Help → Provide a Suggestion".
