A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads from person to
person within a culture—often with the aim of conveying a particular
phenomenon, theme, or meaning represented by the meme.
These are the customer-reported issues addressed in 15.9.2:

ExtCore allows you to decouple your application into the modules (or extensions) and reuse that modules in other applications in various combinations. Each ExtCore extension may consist of one or more projects and each project may include everything you want (as any other ASP.NET Core project). Controllers, view components, views (added as resources and/or precompiled), static content (added as resources) will be resolved automatically. These projects (extension pieces) may be added to the application directly as dependencies in project.json of your main application project (as source code or NuGet packages), or by copying compiled DLL-files to the Extensions folder. ExtCore supports both of these approaches out of the box and at the same time.
Now, with this required hardware-enforced containerization and virtualization tech, Windows 11 will isolate applications and processes much more easily. It will be much more difficult for malware in an errantly running application to access resources it isn't supposed to. It will only access the resources in that specific application task that it infects, such as a particular browser tab.
We're going to use Dapper.NET on our project; that much is not in doubt. However, we're not going to start development with it, and it will not be the only ORM in use. The plan is to develop this project using Entity Framework, and later optimize to use Dapper.NET in certain scenarios where the system needs a performance boost.
Your computer is not a fast PDP-11 … implementations of C have had to become increasingly complex to maintain the illusion that C maps easily to the underlying hardware and gives fast code.
Microsoft has finalized a name for the next major version of Windows 10, and that will be named Windows 10 May 2021 Update (version 21H1). Microsoft said that the build 19043.928 will be the final release build that will start rolling out as May 2021 Update.
Creator of Python, Guido van Rossum, has joined Microsoft as a
Distinguished Engineer in the Developer Division. His stated aim is to
make Python better. We can't wait to find out what that results in.
Not many are familiar with this awesome feature of dotnet core. Aspnet team is actively maintaining a project named JavascriptServices ; Along with other packages, it includes the NodeServices package. Using this package, one can easily create an instance of node and execute JavaScript code (function) in the backend. If you think of it right now, you can see that it actually opens up a wide variety of development opportunities. By opportunities, I mean; the ASP.NET core project is trying hard to make its package eco-system (NuGet) rich but while doing it, why not get advantages of other package eco-system as well, right? When I talk about other than nuget package manager, the first name that comes to my mind is Npm (node package manager). Npm is the largest package manager out there on this very day and its growing rapidly. By using NodeServices package, we can now use (not all of the npm packages but) most of the npm packages in our backend development. So, let me show you how to configure NodeServices in your aspnet core project and use it to execute JavaScript code on the backend.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 1 of 7): Workflow in Windows Applications (Level 100)
This webcast is a code-focused introduction to developing workflow-enabled Microsoft Windows platform applications. We cover the basics of developing, designing, and debugging workflow solutions. Gain the knowledge and insight you need to be confident choosing workflow for everyday applications.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 2 of 7): Simple Human Workflow Using E-mail (Level 200)
Have you thought about how you might apply the workflow concept to e-mail? In this webcast New Zealand based regional director, Chris Auld, leads attendees through a simple worked example of the use of SMTP e-mail as part of a workflow solution. Chris demonstrates how to create custom activities to query Active Directory to retrieve user data, send e-mail, and wait for e-mail responses to continue the workflow process. This code-intensive session gives users taking their first steps with workflow a good grounding in some of the key extensibility concepts.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 3 of 7): Hosting and Communications Options in Workflow Scenarios (Level 300)
The session looks at options for hosting workflow applications. We cover managing events, instance tracking, and persistence, and provide a close look at the simple communications mechanisms that are available for you to use in your workflow applications.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 4 of 7): Workflow, Messaging, and Services: Developing Distributed Applications with Workflows (Level 300)
Web service technologies have typically taken a "do-it-yourself" approach to maintaining the interoperation state of services. Using workflow, developers now have tools that allow them to describe the long-running state of their services and delegate much of the state management to the underlying platform. Managing this state correctly becomes even more challenging in applications that coordinate work across multiple services either within an organization or at an Internet scale. This session looks at how developers who use either Microsoft ASMX or Microsoft's framework for building service-oriented applications, code-named "Indigo", can create workflow-oriented applications that are both faster to write and more manageable and flexible once deployed.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 5 of 7): Developing Event Driven State Machine Workflows (Level 300)
State machines used to be something that you had to first draw on paper and then implement in code. This session shows how to use technologies to create event-driven workflows and how to apply this to a typical programming problem. We introduce the concept of a flexible process and show how this can help with modeling real-world processes using state and sequential workflow. Plenty of coding is included to illustrate how you can seamlessly merge state machine design and your code.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 6 of 7): Extending Workflow Capabilities with Custom Activities (Level 300)
It is helpful to think of activities as controls within a workflow, similar to controls used with Microsoft ASP.NET Pages or Microsoft Windows Forms. You can use activities to encapsulate execution logic, communicate with the host and decompose a workflow into reusable components. This session examines the simple process of creating custom activities. If you want to expose activities to other developers designing workflows, you are likely to find this session valuable.
Intro to Windows Workflow Foundation (Part 7 of 7): Developing Rules Driven Workflows (Level 300)
Rules can be a powerful business tool when combined with workflow. In this session, learn how to develop more advanced activities that support the modeling of rich business behavior such as human workflow. Understand when to use rules for business logic, and see how rule policies allow for the description of sophisticated behavior in an integrated and flexible way. This session gives you an interesting insight into the power of using workflow at the core of a line of business application.
