Bart de Smet releases Pluralsight course: C# Language Internals

While attending the 2014 TechDays in The Hague, I attended all talks by Bart de Smet. I hadn't heard of thim before but attended the first talk of the day where he talked about programming async without using the Aysnc/Await keywoard. He did this by showing what the compiler does with these keywords and then doing that himself in code. Awesome talk!

So - he's now released two PluralSight courses which I highly recommend: C# Language Internals part 1 & 2. Go check it out.

I attended NDC Oslo and TechDays 2014 - video links

I was lucky enough to be able to attend both the Microsoft Techdays in The Hague and NDC Oslo. First things first - here are the video links:

At the techdays I attended talks by Bart de Smet. I was blown away by his insights. He demonstrated async/await programming without using the keywords. Furthermore I learnt about the new release management, Azure HPC and Azure products.


In Oslo, first I attended a workshop by K. Scott Allen on AngularJS. During the conference I saw all the other big names: Douglas Crockford, Bob Martin, Roy Osherove, the guys from .NET Rocks!, Scott Hanselman and a whole bunch more.
