Do a piece on GoDaddy - they're absolutely disastrous. Eg, when you need to do any kind of downgrade of a service, you need a 2fa over email which they intentionally delay for like 15mins. If you leave the page, you have to request a new one. Of course, when it's 2fa for something that's not negative in terms of revenue, it arrives immediately.

Gemini Ultra should show good progress according to Google - it's supposed to perform better than 85% of computer science competitors, which requires a lot of logical reasoning. Lets see it once it goes live, but sounds promising.

It's a great list. Would be a good to keep it as some live list so we can help evolve it over time.

I'd add two ideas:

Build lightweight memcached - it requires mixture of basic algorithms as well as good system design practices - it's a "simple" problem, but requires to think well from multiple angles - invalidation, concurrency, memory management...

Build your own docker - it's not as complex as it might sound - gives opportunity to understand basics of OS programming, which most engineers nowadays don't really use in day to day jobs

Edit: ignore. Posted on wrong article.

I hope they do. I'm pretty sure that pricing is the key factor that is stopping xamarin from being way more popular

Hope this means lower prices. Or even some free edition? :)

Yes. That's what I was trying to emphasize - I won't be perfect, but it will be good enough until the platform gains traction.

Blackberry tried to run Android apps directly on Blackberry. Microsoft is just giving you an easy way to migrate your apps. It's a different thing.
