Just watching Microsoft Connect.
Native compilation, statically linked using the native Open Source .NET on Linux.
That's so, so awesome.

Damn! I want to know all about .NET native!!
What did I miss!!!

Nice! That opens up some options.

Now if they'd just offer the same for regular winform/wpf applications on windows (as opposed to just win8/10 style apps).
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?

That would be soooo sweeet!
I think Mono will just become a lot easier now (I mean, for mono to support winforms)
Best,

I liked the look of where they're going with C# and the fact they are doing it all in github.

Think MS finally realized they can't build tools that are supposed to be cross-platform then start excluding platforms. Took a while... 
Glad to see them coming around the idea of supporting open source and true cross-platform development.

Does this mean it can run on Macs too since at the heart of it Macs are ran on Darwin?

Probably not... think there's enough differences where any interpreter would be have be built specifically for Mac.
|
|
|
|
|
If I understand your question, they have a similar package that installs on Mac and runs natively on OSX

That's cool to know. Thanks.

What a profit you find here?!
"Native" you already have thru JIT, so in "execution speed" you have ZERO profit.
Statically linked means if program1 uses 'curl', you cannot upgrade just 'curl' in case of vulnerability - you have to download ALL programs using curl (and ONLY if these programs was recompiled with fixed library).
So say again... "awesome", right?
|
|

|

JIT isn't native by definition, though. You're compiling from source on the fly, rather than having a binary library on hand that doesn't require that compilation. For non-trivial applications this is a big difference in speed and performance.
I'm pretty sure that statically linked in this context refers to the .NET framework, not applications using it. Generally MS implementations follow a standard of coding against interfaces, so rarely do changes in the framework break functionality. Even major version changes in .NET rarely modify those interfaces.
So yes, awesome.

It's kind of forever evolving. hard to pin down for very long. although I welcome cross platform even though I'm likely not to touch it out side of Windows.

could you, please, share the title of the related presentation?

..for those who didn't manage to get to the live event.

It was 30 years ago today that a five year old boy set a tiger trap with a tuna fish sandwich.
I wonder if anything interesting happened?

I happen to know about William Blake. But how does any fish enter the frame?

According to that he was 6 not 5. Oh well. Yes, Young Master Calvin met Mister Hobbes and the world was a better place for the next ten years.
