.NET Core would’ve been really incredible had it come a few years earlier, but I’ve been too busy being enamored by Go and Rust to really consider it more. Still, it is very nice to use when I do use it. I am quite excited by the way it handles async. I had some issues trying to use debuggers under Linux due to licensing... a little bit of “old world” Microsoft?

I really don’t care for Windows 10 at all, and make a point of not running it on any of my machines (I am running Linux everywhere.) I keep checking and rather than getting better it often feels it’s getting worse. The fresh install experience is abysmal.

Is the “new” Microsoft really great? GitHub has been doing awesome, and I love Visual Studio Code, but as much as it pains me to say it they still have a long way to go. It feels like Microsoft, as large a company as it is, is in two places about many of these issues. I still have fears. Can I trust VS Code remoting? (It’s not open source, from what I can tell.) Hard to say. (I still use it, because it’s awesome. But, I have second thoughts every time. It’s hard to shake the feeling that maybe something is off.)
