Though it may sound like our occasional April Fools Day joke, C# 9 is looking to add and, or, and not to its list of keywords. Specifically, for use in pattern matching. Good idea? And/or not?

And the article starts out with an example so stupid it almost leaves you breathless. It then doubles down.

This just screams for refactoring. But we can't! People will cry bloody murder!

This would require a new entry in our coding policy manual - do not EVER use the C#9 pattern matching keywords, "and", "or", or "not".
It would be put in the section that also includes, "Do not use default methods in interfaces."

I've noticed a growing trend of people assuming algorithms are pointless questions that are asked by tech companies purely as an arbitrary measure. Writing your own quicksort didn't make the list?
Yes, there is a bad word on a tweet quoted in the article. I hope that one day you may find it in your hearts to forgive me

At one [group] interview, I was asked how to reverse a string in C. I went to the whiteboard and wrote strrev. Most thought it the right answer.
|

|

It's absolutely the right answer (assuming the job was in C)

These are not related, but I’ve decided to bundle these in a single blog post. Because the language designers have been reading Python code?

No worries... after windows, linux and apple... nobody is going to blame you for mixing up things that were not expected to even get close.

A new suit alleges that Android and potentially iOS users are secretly having their personal data harvested by "voyeur extraordinare" Google, even if they are not using Google's own apps. Google is spying on us? Why has no one told me before?

Following the announcement about porting OpenJDK to Windows 10 on ARM devices, Microsoft today revealed that it will bring WPF support to Windows 10 ARM in 2021. It ain't dead yet (yet)

How about bringing WPF to .Net Core in Linux.
