I have retired from Microsoft so am retiring & parking this Twitter account so my posts can help others discover & learn more about the evolution of WSL, Windows Terminal, and our Windows on Arm efforts. I will, however, continue to tweet @bitcrazed - see you over there! 😜

It looks like C# is finally getting discriminated unions. And with it, you can expect to see language-level support for Result and Option types. I'm excited to see this come to C#, as I've advocated for the Result pattern for quite some time.

Seriously, I fully recommend learning PowerShell if you're a Sys Admin/Engineer or do anything related to Microsoft technologies, because it's saving my arse right now in preparation for the suffering I'm about to endure tomorrow morning lol.


Wooooooooooooooooooot! :D

WSL now supports custom kernels on ARM64 without requiring shenanigans: github.com/microsoft/WSL/… @benhillis

I love the new Microsoft Store transitions — super smooth and lovely details, like the spotlight effect following the cursor. Excellent work @RudyHuyn and team 🥰

We're empowering developers to move into the future! Future Windows devices running on an Arm processor will no longer support AArch32 (Arm32). We recommend updating your targeted platforms to AArch64 (Arm64). Follow the guidance here ⬇️ msft.it/6012eqoOp

If you’re a politician or media figure who sets up the LGBTQ community to be hated and feared - not because any of us ever harmed you but because you find it useful - then don’t you dare act surprised when this kind of violence follows. Don’t you dare act surprised.
