F# has fantastic concurrency support. Great support for Asynchronous operations and Multi Threading. Being a functional first language and immutable by default means most of the mi…

Have you ever used Jet? Try it, add a few things to your cart then add a few more and see what happens to the prices of the previous items. There are millions of permutations being…

While I think F# is a great programming language. The article missed some good uses of it. Specifically the article missed one of largest F# deployment, in production, in the world…

So I mean this is great but are they open sourcing it? Is there a way for us to play with it? Or are they just bragging?

Banks are losing their minds more and more everyday as they deal with a world that doesn't trust them or respect them.

Many of the comments on here are pretty negative. I'm pretty sure it is partly because most startups are started in some Garage without 250 million in runway. That doesn't mean thi…
