There's a new major version release of @IonideProject for #fsharp on #dotnet! 6.0.0 is special for a few reasons, but first and foremost is that this version is the first that _requires_ .NET 6 in order to work. Timely, because .NET 5 is going out of support on May 8th!

Some notes on how https://t.co/1Q9TvGjjXS achieves strongly-typed data access (based on external schema), without using either codegen or runtime reflection. Like codegen this is intrinsically friendly to static linking and tree-shaking. https://t.co/7sdDPWMhbA

"Since this is not a new feature and has been around in one shape or form for a few years, we’re still learning and need your feedback more than ever to ensure these features can meet your expectations." https://t.co/ihMVGPCmKu ¯_(ツ)_/¯

It’s technically possible to compile https://t.co/iVNZYgvf9Y Core *Server* to WebAssembly and run it inside your browser.

You absolutely shouldn’t – it’s the worst possible way to deliver a server-rendered app – but it does actually work!https://t.co/6THxShRb9h

Hey #fsharp, you may have noticed I'm obsessed with performance.

By request, I've started compiling my favorite content on this page:https://t.co/desk1ld1OU

Let me know if you have suggestions for additional content I should check out. I'll continually update that page. pic.twitter.com/hJEIs0J6Iq

I think F# is easiest/most useful if you look at it as a unique language, not in a category. The strength is the right mix of this and that style.

For example, its list comprehension is awesome, a feature you also find in Python.

I'm really happy to see this community implementation of "fast, improved task programming" supporting things like implicit propagation of cancellation tokens, using the new resumable code features of F# 6. Please contribute! https://t.co/6f5sxyRIzp

I'm very happy to announce I'm joining @GitHubNext, an exciting and new applied research group within GitHub and DevDiv at Microsoft.

My work will remain as before – 50%+ as F# BDFL contributing to language and tools, and 50%+ applied research in programming technology.

Hey #fsharp, I started working on a library that adds ColdTask and CancellableTask task CEs. https://t.co/Ib0UwfWVnG

I'm definitely looking for feedback. I'm still a noob when it comes to the resumable code, I'm just tweaking things an hope they work out.

I just released @PaketManager 7 with support for #dotnet 7 support and much improved dotnet restore behavior after install and update commands. Get it while it's hot.

Welcome everyone, this is an experiment in setting up Twitter community for #fsharp

Join the community at https://t.co/8Dy5jeu1f6

AFAICS only community members can reply to tweets, and there are "rules". Tweets are fully public.

Here is the draft design specification for C# Generics that I put out on the coffee table at @MSFTResearch in Cambridge in ~2002 for researchers to comment on, with some hand-written notes from Sir Tony Hoare, "RC" and "RS" (need to look up who they were! my memory is fading!) pic.twitter.com/Pstamq4Fe6
