The free Text Sharp extension lets you adjust text clarity in Visual Studio 2015, Visual Studio 2013, Visual Studio 2012 and Visual Studio 2010 IDEs (Professional, Premium, Ultimate and LightSwitch). You can select Aliased, Grayscale or ClearType text rendering mode for Visual Studio menu, tabs and editor windows. An easy way to turn off ClearType. (Aliased rendering looks terrible when text scale is changed from default 100% in text views, so Text Sharp doesn't override VS settings when Aliased+Display is selected and zoom level is not 100%.)

To improve the initial page request load time, we normally apply two performance techniques called bundling and minification. In this tutorial, I will give you a step by step overview of different tools and techniques we can use to apply bundling and minification in ASP.NET Core 5 applications.
webpack is arguably the most popular bundler right now and this is the first major release in over two years. We get big improvements to caching (and therefore performance), reduced bundle sizes with better tree shaking, and a variety of breaking changes to prepare for the future (automatic Node polyfills are gone, for one).
The Redgate Hub provides a wealth of free technical articles and videos and recently even more content has been added to the university. New courses include guidance for setting up your own demo environment, a course on unboxing SQL Cone, and a guide to testing your Database DevOps readiness.
Various .NET Core repos have switched their master branches
to "5.0", and will use 3.x branches for 3.0 and 3.1 projects. This is
very similar to how we approached 2.x and 3.0 projects. As context, master branches produced 3.0 builds for the entire period of the 2.2 project.
Safari, Firefox, Edge and Chrome are removing support for TLS 1.0 and 1.1 in March of 2020. If you manage websites, this means there’s less than a year to enable TLS 1.2 (and, ideally, 1.3) on your servers, otherwise all major browsers will display error pages, rather than the content your users were expecting to find.
This document covers the best practices and pitfalls for building UI to display URLs in browsers and other apps. It covers the main categories of problems and challenges that we’ve seen in building Chrome. The guidance is intended to be generally applicable, but includes some Chrome-specific notes throughout.
