It's unfortunate to hear all of this from Beige's perspective. But the optimist in me thinks this is probably just a big company focusing on a release and putting everything else on the back-burner. That doesn't make it right, but I want to think this isn't an example of how Microsoft wants to treat the community moving forward. I think AppGet, an officially supported package manager, should be a core feature. It needed to happen one way or another.

But the lack of UI to browse/search I think is too lacking so I put this up a few days ago: https://wingetit.com -- I imagine Microsoft is going to copy/replace this soon, but I won't mind.

Unless you are going open source, you might not want to ship your typescript sourceMaps in production. https://i.imgur.com/A1tQtVO.png

This guy has tons of great content like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cky0O-hANDI

He's currently a Junior Doctor in the UK and is great at consuming lots of complex content and describing how he does it. Some clickbaity videos in there but most of it is fantastic.

I'd like this if I could sort after I search... also browsing categories.

This, it's incredible. Amongs many other things, it supports a lot of the navigation/refactoring features of all the other IntelliJ products.

I'd bet "being on the Rails stack" would carry little weight if they were deciding to acquire them.

This sounds like the technique that bands use when they first come to a new city. Use a smaller venue so everyone hears the show was sold out.. then the next time they come back, they can play a bigger venue and fill it.

I built a proof-of-concept that I put in the chrome store a year and a half ago that looks just like this. I was just playing with angular and I didn't realize 1000+ users would use it so it's been ignored since then.

This is exactly it. Not to mention all of the "internal" resources/time they put into that number. I also imagine they did an overhaul of their internal booking system, and possibly increased full-time staff (project managers, support, and sales staff) to handle the new demand.
