[Redirect Magazine] #5 - Repository pattern diverging opinion, .NET and Go concurrency, JS Event Loop and Zones

Some more reading/watching material. A bit more Go this week, as I would love to use it to build something but haven’t got around to do it - my attention span in pet projects is terrible, I start one thing then get another idea and forget the previous :) Articles “Is the repository pattern useful with Entity Framework Core?” An alternative point of view on the much used repository pattern. “Go vs C#, part 1: goroutines vs async-await” An interesting read, not really for the performance tests, but mostly because of the pretty significant differences in working with async code between C# and Go....

[Redirect Magazine] #1 - Sharing some links

Haven’t shared anything in a while, but that doesn’t mean I’m not up to something (I even recorded a video based on the Docker + Angular + ASP.NET Core post, but the sound turned out crappy and I scratched that). To try to avoid these times I don’t share something I created, I thought of starting a (hopefully) weekly “magazine” linking to some stuff I’ve been reading/watching. Articles “JPEG, GIF, PNG OR SVG - Which should You use?...
