I'm usually sitting with 3+ VS 2010 open and 1-2 WinDbg. The desktop machine crawls on one single thing.
Hint: try !sym noisy and see how long the PDB resolving takes.
VS *in* browser? I thought VS online is a some kind of remote desktop thing.
If it's in browser, then I won't use it.

Last time I checked the VS online was rather azure version of TFS and not the IDE running in browser.
However reading the comments above I think the name can be somewhat misleading

That's what I thought too, but I was too lazy to confirm.
However (and as you point out): that really does show just how poorly they've explained (i.e. 'marketed') the product, if the first assumption of most people is that it's Visual Studio ... in the CLOUD, rather than TFS ... in the CLOUD. Perhaps they were worried what people would end up writing it TSFO.

I'd suggest that for a second version they add network management to the package; they could call it Team System Foundation Online Active Directory. 
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

DevOps is an invisible thread that runs through the entire process of IT, from the design of the software right out to the software running in production. Don't be the last on your block to join in on the shiny new bandwagon!

There, you see: you must be in a moribund corporate culture. 
Time to jazz things up with something new, EXCITING, and potentially disastrous (but bosses love it as they save on those expensive DBAs). If devops isn't your thing, maybe rewrite your most financially significant app in Node.js? Or perhaps you'd like to outsource your network to three guys in SF that just got funded by YC?

Ummm, whether they like it or not, they'll have to face the Nokia X OS now. Microsoft has started a new generation of smart phones, which are hybrid to the Android and Windows Phone.
Google can only face the reality.

Nokia (Microsoft) have unsurprisingly announced the Nokia X line will be discontinued. Wiki[^]

Microsoft's Internet Explorer has a bit of a brand identity issue on its hands. Because of decisions made many, many years ago, Internet Explorer 6 has left a sour taste in the mouths of developers and consumers. Even some of the older iterations like IE7 and 8 are still loathed by consumers but later iterations like IE10 and 11 have fared much better in terms of providing a positive web browsing experience. They could call it 'Google Chrome' by Microsoft

Perhaps they could call it "Mic-key Mouse Explorer."

There was minor consternation in Internet engineering circles today, as the number of IPv4 networks worldwide briefly touched another magic “power of 2″ size limit. As it turns out, 512K (524,288 to be exact, or 2-to-the-19th power) is the maximum number of routes supported by the default TCAM configuration on certain aging hardware platforms. The End is Nigh (again)

How many IT people does it take to produce an application? Actually, let me rephrase that. How many IT people does it take to produce an application effectively and efficiently? For many organizations, the answer to the second question is less than the answer to the first because the traditional IT hierarchy includes layers of middle-manager decision makers that weigh everything down. Why not get rid of all middle-men then and require everyone to build their own computer and OS?
