The error message is sent as a HTTP trailing header. Their server or client has a header size limit of 8kb.

It is strange that you couldn't find the empty web template. Every version of ASP.NET Core has come with one. Empty is the first option in the "Create a new ASP.NET Core web applic…

The future of Silverlight and Flash died when mobile phones rejected browser plugins. No amount of good choices from MS/Adobe would change that.

Developer on gRPC for .NET here. gRPC client requires HTTP/2, and HttpClient (the .NET library for making HTTP requests) didn't previously support HTTP/2. The gRPC client actually …

You can .NET Native on your own machine for testing but the package uploaded to the store contains MSIL. The final .NET Native version is then compiled in the cloud. https://blogs.…

UWP apps from the Windows Store already ban JIT compilation - at least for .NET apps. When .NET UWP applications are uploaded the store pre-compiles them on the server with .NET Na…

I'm expecting it won't. With C# 7 tuples there will be less methods with out parameters in the future.

It came from the video but I have personally found async methods to be significantly slower most of the time (although I've never sat down and figured out the exact amount). The re…

> In fact, they're generally slightly slower An async method is much slower (40x) compared to a normal sync method. If you're writing a high performance library you need to be care…

And the torpedo they dropped barely worked. Later in tests the US Navy found there was a 2/3 chance the torpedo would break up, not start or simply sink when it hit the water.

You probably won't. This is .NET Core only. .NET Core is a cross platform slimmed down version of .NET and doesn't run Winforms or desktop WPF. Windows Store WPF is supported.

No. Currently .NET Native (AOT) is used with WinStore apps - in fact every Win10 .NET application in the store and on your computer HAS to be .NET Native - but the plan is to make …

No .NET CLI is a set of cross platform command line tools for making .NET applications.
