Based on the above observations, we can conclude that React will be the best framework to learn in 2021, followed by Vue. But there is a high chance of Angular defending second place since it has been there for a longer period of time than Vue, and surely 2021 is not the end of that. So if you are an Angular developer, I suggest you learn React in the upcoming days.

Today we announced the general availability of SQL Server 2016, the world’s fastest and most price-performant database for HTAP (Hybrid Transactional and Analytical Processing) with updateable, in-memory columnstores and advanced analytics through deep integration with R Services. Software applications can now deploy sophisticated analytics and machine learning models in the database resulting in 100x or more speedup in time to insight, compared to deployments of such models outside of the database.

Here are some of the reasons why nullable reference types are less than ideal:

• Invoking a member on a null value will issue a System.NullReferenceException exception, and every invocation that results in a System.NullReferenceException in production code is a bug. Unfortunately, however, with nullable reference types we “fall in” to doing the wrong thing rather than the right thing. The “fall in” action is to invoke a reference type without checking for null.
• There’s an inconsistency between reference types and value types (following the introduction of Nullable<T>) in that value types are nullable when decorated with  “?” (for example, int? number); otherwise, they default to non-nullable. In contrast, reference types are nullable by default. This is “normal” to those of us who have been programming in C# for a long time, but if we could do it all over, we’d want the default for reference types to be non-nullable and the addition of a “?” to be an explicit way to allow nulls.
• It’s not possible to run static flow analysis to check all paths regarding whether a value will be null before dereferencing it, or not. Consider, for example, if there were unmanaged code invocations, multi-threading, or null assignment/­replacement based on runtime conditions. (Not to mention whether analysis would include checking of all library APIs that are invoked.)
• There’s no reasonable syntax to indicate that a reference type value of null is invalid for a particular declaration.
• There’s no way to decorate parameters to not allow null. 

These are the customer-reported issues addressed in 15.8.2:

• Publish single file context menu item missing.
• Git network operations not working: Cannot spawn git-askpass.exe.
• "Visual C++ Resource Editor Package" load failed.
• Preview Transform gives error.
• Cannot type close brace.
• Object reference not set to an instance of an object when deploying Service Fabric project after update 15.8.0.
• "The given path's format is not supported" installation error.
• Task ExpandPriContent failed. Illegal characters in path.
• "Could not create instance of type System.Collections.Genertic.Iset'1[Signer]" installer error.
• Service fabric deployment fails in 15.8.0.
• Cannot create app package for Windows store.
• Incorrect code generation for strongly-typed resources.
• Keyboard binding for Italian layout.
• IntelliSense broken #9999.
• When working on a Unity project and Unity rewrites multiple project files, the Visual Studio Tools for Unity will now automatically reload the solution.
• The customer will now get a dialog to close Office applications if they are blocking the Visual Studio install and causing a failure of 1303.
