    Having maintained both JavaScript SPAs and Blazor apps for the past 4 years, I disagree with the article's point about Blazor being more complex. I've had way more issues keeping J…

    It is nothing like Web Forms (I've built dozens of Web Forms and Blazor apps so I know), and WASM is just one delivery vehicle for it. You can also render it server side or locally…

    That is not true. There are certain APIs only applicable to commercial users, but the same Graph API calls (for example against OneDrive or Excel) can be used across both.

    I feel like Tyranny is greatly under rated. There are rough edges for sure, but the story line and atmosphere sucked me in in a way that I haven't experienced in a long time. Reall…

    I remember fondly "back in the old days" spending a couple of years doing Java servlets (for reference, this was right when JSPs were becoming a thing) where we implemented a nice …

    It'll most likely be using the German regulated version of Azure/Office 365: https://support.office.com/en-us/article/Learn-about-Office-... Similar to what China does.

    It should also be noted that W10 Mobile was a slow running, bug ridden mess when it was released and took well over a year to become usable. It was also not compatible with most of…

    Actually, it is (was) available on the web. But yea, no marketing... https://music.microsoft.com/

    Hard to tell, but I don't think it would have worked out since Google did not support their services on Windows Phone and, at the time, there were not good alternatives. (Although,…

    Yep, sorry poor grammar there. I've edited so hopefully it's clearer now.

    From my experience, the reasons why people switched to Chrome have been because it renders pages much smoother and everything generally looks better. These were the original reason…

    Really? You're more concerned about the software being provided to you by Microsoft, who is at least presumably trying to keep you as a satisfied customer and provide a secure oper…

    I am not sure that it's really feasible to decouple feature and security updates though. With Microsoft releasing two major feature updates a year, how many variations of this can …

    I am curious what your resistance is to OneDrive. Personally, I try to put as much in there as I can as I frequently switch machines that I am working on. I keep my work code in th…

    I have Windows 10 Pro AND an Office 365 subscription and the damn thing showed up for me. While I use and enjoy quite a few Microsoft products, I feel like there are just some baff…

    Right, I am not saying that these dialogs did not exist, were not terrible, and some people did not take the time to read them and inadvertently scheduled an update... However, I a…

    How was this upgrade forced on you? I use several machines that are still happily running Win7 and 8.

    I find the trackpad to be quite good compared to most other Windows PCs, but it is on the small side. I haven't tried the SP4 keyboard yet where it is slightly larger. The touch ca…

    Yea, that probably wasn't a great example. I think at a basic file storage and sharing perspective the products offer about the same. However, IMO comparing SharePoint to Google Dr…

    And if you have something like a Surface, the native apps have great inking support. Just open up a Word doc, sign it and send it back. The web apps are nice in a pinch, but I find…

    Compared to what that has the same functionality? I think these changes are all commendable and I am greatly looking forward to them. However, as someone who spends a lot of time i…
