I'm curious to understand if and when inter-satellite links can reduce the latency of a starlink connection

as you might know, it's also about bandwidth and latency. LEO satellites can be an enabler for a lot of remote operation, IF (and this is a big IF) latency remain small also with intersatellite links, and connection reliability is comparable to GEO

just enjoy, if you have a disney+ account, the documentary "among the stars" where you can view the astronauts repairing the hubble telescope

they can release Activision and Bethesta titles only with game pass, and let Sony and Nintendo be free to implement game pass in their platform

unfortunately, the code is simply ugly to read

same for me

spatialite rulez!

I'd like the idea of vertical slices for this: once you've done this, then refactor to microservices will be much easier.

Keep in mind that, although I partially agree with you, other platforms are way-worse than .NET. think about nodejs mess and client-side ecosystem, where things break almost at any minor release. Dev world is going fast, and I think that the choice for .NET is to embrace change or die as an old platform. My2Cents.

openlayers is more a gis platform, while leaflet is easier to use and closer to Google maps api

> I do worry about the cognitive burden of remembering idioms and dealing with multiple ways to do the same thing

To me, VS 2019 refactoring suggestions and Roslynator extensions helped a lot to learn and use new syntax capabilities and idioms: you write code in "the same old way" and then often roslyn is able to convert this code using new features, often in a concise, readable but undebuggable way :)

> It's amazing how the language advances over years

I think that with the latest improvements (from v7 to now) Microsoft is trying to "fill the gap" between F# and C#, and let C# developers embrace functional paradigms (at least, some of) without switching to F# itself.

Even worse. We're stuck with html/js also for "desktop" apps, via the electon and similar. Basically, UI development is dead (Windows WPF is in maintenance mode) and if you want, as example, build some graphs you need to manipulate js in a webpage. A

oh God, you're right! DMA Design, they were truly amazing!

kudos to lemmings creators!

DM admins: please let me edit and repost this

amazing stuff, give a try also to the video from the snes conversion programmer

yep! this blog post is more clear about future releases: https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/net-core-is-the-future...

"We will continue to both service and support .NET Framework, which includes bug–, reliability– and security fixes."

exactly! "We will continue to both service and support .NET Framework, which includes bug–, reliability– and security fixes."

Yep, I've semplified. What I understood from this post is that net framework is in "maintenance mode": probably MS plan a 4.8.1 with but fixes and maybe a 4.9 with some minor updates, but .net core (now simply .net) is the place where new things will be developed.

Legacy net framework Will stop with 4.8, as said some months ago

EDIT: more on this here https://devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/update-on-net-core-3-0...

the poor simply can respect the rules like the rich, right?

do you know the origin of this? I suppose from the film "being john Malkovich"...

Here the "floating point" excerpt from the book: http://fabiensanglard.net/floating_point_visually_explained/...

there was a documentary about this, seen on Italian TV (English doc with subs)

Adriano Celentano, truly an Italian legendary artist. Actor, singer, performer.

really? Pretty sure OCS was the same in all Amigas
