- SPs will no longer be made available. Only CUs, and GDRs when needed.
- CUs will be delivered more often at first and then less frequently. Every month for the first 12 months, and every quarter for the remainder 4 years of the full 5-year mainstream lifecycle.
- CUs are delivered on the same week of the month: week of 3rd Tuesday.

A Tour of Go (golang) for the C# Developer

Learning other programming languages enhances our work in our primary language. From the perspective of a C# developer, the Go language (golang) has many interesting ideas. Go is opinionated on some things (such as where curly braces go and what items are capitalized). Declaring an unused variable causes a compile failure; the use of "blank identifiers" (or "discards" in C#) are common. Concurrency is baked right in to the language through goroutines and channels. Programming by exception is discouraged; it's actually called a "panic" in Go. Instead, errors are treated as states to be handled like any other data state. We'll explore these features (and others) by building an application that uses concurrent operations to get data from a service. These ideas make us think about the way we program and how we can improve our day-to-day work (in C# or elsewhere).

Clean code is more than just working code. Clean code is easy to read, simple to understand, and neatly organized. In this article, we’ll look at eight ways we can write cleaner React code.

C#.NET for non-engineers.

The first course of "A Sr. Developer Course" courses. which contains:
1- C# Fundamentals for non-engineers.
2- DataBase for non-engineers.
3- Asp.NET WebForm for Non-engineers.
4- Application Architecture for no-engineers.
5- ASP.NET MVC for non-engineers.
