We are going to rewrite React from scratch. Step by step. Following the architecture from the real React code but without all the optimizations and non-essential features. If you’ve read any of my previous “build your own React” posts, the difference is that this post is based on React 16.8, so we can now use hooks and drop all the code related to classes.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T03:01:43.938Z
This episode helps you compare deep learning vs. machine learning. You'll learn how the two concepts compare and how they fit into the broader category of artificial intelligence. During this demo we will also describe how deep learning can be applied to real-world scenarios such as fraud detection, voice and facial recognition, sentiment analytics, and time series forecasting.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T03:03:46.784Z
We are busy, busy, busy working on version 11 of Hot Chocolate and Strawberry Shake. In this post I want to explore the client side of GraphQL on .NET more with a special emphasis on subscriptions. Since, with the new version of Strawberry Shake our initial blog has become kind of invalid I also will walk you trough the basics again before heading into subscriptions and what lies beyond.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T02:56:51.008Z
We are excited to announce .NET Core support for Pulumi! This announcement means you can declare cloud infrastructure — including all of Azure, such as Kubernetes, Functions, AppService, Virtual Machines, CosmosDB, and more — using your favorite .NET language, including C#, VB.NET, and F#. This brings the entire cloud to your fingertips without ever having to leave your code editor, while using production-ready “infrastructure as code” techniques.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T03:05:14.876Z
A colleague of mine, who happens to be my ̶b̶o̶s̶s̶ ̶ leader wrote a really cool compiler. It’s not a cool CRUD app or complicated animation. IT’S A COMPILER. Used in the production environment. And it’s not backed up by a community or a big company.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T02:58:59.959Z
FluentDispatch is a .NET Standard 2.1 framework which makes easy to scaffold distributed systems and dispatch incoming load into units of work in a deterministic way. This framework is useful whenever you want to process a heavy workload coming from a specific source of data (i.e message broker, web endpoint, ...) in a non-blocking way (fire-and-forget pattern) but still being able to benefit from resiliency features (circuit beaking, back pressure, ...). The framework can be used to dispatch load into units of work locally (using .NET Threadpool) or remotely (using Remote Procedure Calls).by bill-s, 2019-12-03T03:03:26.055Z
Let’s take a look at the minimum requirements for web developers in the 2000s. In the good old days, you could build more or less working website with a backend programming language (e.g PHP, Python, Ruby), some Javascript + jQuery and the ability to create an HTML layout from PSD. That’s all. The code was deployed mainly by FTP. CI/CD, Pipelines, DevOps, SRE and other mainstream concepts were not in the list of minimum requirements for web developers.by cezarypiatek, 2019-12-02T18:09:44.165Z
In this blog post, I’m going to describe how to create a tool for generating code during the build process and how I used it to create auto-synchronizing mapping classes.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T02:57:44.578Z
Oh boi the event loop. It’s one of those things that every JavaScript developer has to deal with in one way or another, but it can be a bit confusing to understand at first. I’m a visual learner so I thought I’d try to help you by explaining it in a visual way through low-res gifs because it's 2019 and gifs are somehow still pixelated and blurry. But first, what is the event loop and why should you care? JavaScript is single-threaded: only one task can run at a time. Usually, that’s no big deal, but now imagine you’re running a task which takes 30 seconds.. Ya.. During that task we’re waiting for 30 seconds before anything else can happen (JavaScript runs on the browser’s main thread by default, so the entire UI is stuck) It’s 2019, no one wants a slow, unresponsive websiteby bill-s, 2019-12-03T03:01:23.363Z

It’s common knowledge that reflection in .NET is slow, but why is that the case? This post aims to figure that out by looking at what reflection does under-the-hood.by bill-s, 2019-12-03T02:56:32.762Z
One of the awesome features introduced in .NET Core 3.0 and C# 8.0 are async streams. The feature consists of two parts – async disposable, for async clean up, as well as async enumerable, for async iteration.
