Akka.NET is an open-source actor model framework written exclusively for
Microsoft.NET in C# and compatible with .NET Core. It simplifies the
building of scalable, concurrent, high-throughput, and low-latency
systems, making life for software developers a bit easier. Zoran
Maksimovic's Akka.NET Succinctly will show readers what an actor
model is and how to work with actors in Akka.NET, taking them from an

Dirk Strauss will take readers through generating cryptographic
signatures, hashing and salting passwords, and when and how to use

With the new Office Developer Tools for Visual Studio 2013 – March 2014 Update comes a feature called “Just My Code” for JavaScript, which can speed up your debugging experience by allowing you to focus on debugging your own code, and not library or framework code. In this post, I’ll walk through how this works

var wallet =
context.ExecuteStoreQuery<UserWallet>("SELECT UserId, WalletId, Balance FROM UserWallets WITH (UPDLOCK) WHERE ...");
// your logic
scope.Complete();
}
