Anders Hejlsberg has been working on interesting new type system capabilities: template string types as well as mapped type as clauses. Both features are slated for the upcoming TypeScript 4.1 release. 

TypeScript has a lot of value to offer making the switch highly attractive:

• More “future proof”
• Higher OSS adoption & better RN + library support
• Awesome developer experience (VSCode)
• Consistency with other department projects
• Easier to hire for 

For TypeScript 2.0, the current road map consists of:
    • Non-nullable types
    • Control flow based typed analysis
    • Async/await downlevel support
    • Readonly properties
    • Declared 'this' type in functions
    • Improved typings acquisition

Today, a jury in California's Northern District federal court declared that Google's use of copyright-protected code in Android was fair use, freeing it of any liability.

Why Serilog? It is easy to set up, has a clean API, and is portable between recent .NET platforms. The big difference between Serilog and the other frameworks is that it is designed to do structured logging out of the box. Another thing I really like about Serilog is that it can be configured via the appsetting.json file alongside configuring through code. Changing logging configuration without touching the codebase is really helpful, especially in the production environment.

Use of the library does involve having an Apple Developer account at $99 a year , and to use the beta, developers will need to set up core Maps identifiers, keys, and tokens via their developer account. The beta version limits usage to  250,000 instantiations and 25,000 service calls, per API key per day, compared to Google's limit of 100,000 map instantiations per month on the free tier.
