Display technology and usage scenarios have changed significantly since the time when many desktop app technologies were first introduced. Many desktop UI frameworks on Windows have, historically, struggled to keep up with modern usage scenarios such as handling multiple displays with different DPI values or handling dynamic DPI changes (docking/undocking, RDP, mixed-DPI). This has resulted in desktop applications that can render blurry or be sized incorrectly. In this session we'll discuss what Microsoft is doing to address these challenges, including new APIs and technologies targeted at high-DPI usage scenarios for desktop apps.
Visual Studio has a rich and powerful command system that enables users to take full control of the IDE from the keyboard. In this session, Justin Clareburt shares with us everything there is to know about the keyboard mapping system, including: where and how to define your own keyboard shortcuts, how to import and export keyboard mappings, how to define and create entire keyboard mapping schemes, and how to install and activate keyboard mapping schemes within Visual Studio. Justin also demonstrates some existing shortcuts for managing tool windows inside Visual Studio, including: opening, closing and hiding individual tool windows; navigating and cycling through tool windows; toggling tool window state; and hiding all tool windows with a single command. He also shows off some of the new keyboard mapping schemes that were developed to assist users migrating from different IDEs. - Hot Keys: Visual Studio Extension that imports several new keyboard mapping schemes http://aka.ms/hotkeys - Hot Commands: Provides additional commands and shortcuts for enhanced productivity http://aka.ms/hotcommands
This week, James is joined by friend of the show Kirill Gavrylyuk, Dev Manager on the DocumentDB team at Microsoft, introduces us to the brand new DocumentDB SDK for Xamarin Developers. DocumentDB is everything a mobile developer needs, a fully managed NoSQL database as a service that scales on demand, and can bring your data where your users go around the globe—completely transparently to your application. Kirill walks us through getting started with DocumentDB, integrating the SDK, and even some best practices.

In today's episode, Monster Dave prototypes an approach to generating static resource URLs to potentially improve the performance of an ASP.NET Core application. Borrowing ideas from a recent blog post by the Facebook engineering team. First, we create a tag helper to generate static resource URLs based on a hash of the file's contents. Next, we write some custom middleware to rewrite those new URLs to the actual file and to always return 304 not-modified for all conditional requests.

This week's Data Exposed show is one I have been waiting to do for a long time. I'm excited to have Umachandar Jayachandran, or UC, in the studio today to talk about R services in SQL Server 2016, a topic that has generated a lot of exciting interest and chatter. UC is a Principal PM in the SQL team and is in the studio today to help shed some light on "why's" and "what's" of R in SQL Server 2016. UC and I begin the show by discussing, and answering, the questions "What is R", and "Why include R in SQL Server 2016?". UC explains that R is a popular language used for data science and machine learning, and by including R in SQL Server you now have a single platform for doing intelligence and analysis for your advanced analytics applications in addition to the existing relational aspect. Finally, and with great excitement, it is DEMO TIME at the [04:25] mark. UC shows how to enable R within SQL Server, then shows several examples on how to get started writing R scripts within SQL Server Management Studio. We wrap up this episode at the [17:35] mark by showing a few links to help you get started using R in SQL Server, which can be found below. Great show, and very informative! We definitely look forward to having UC back soon! https://microsoft.com/en-us/sql-server/developer-get-started/raka.ms/sqldev/rGitHub.com/Microsoft/sql-server-samples/tree/master/samples/features/r-services

We are living in an extraordinary time where every person and every organization on the planet can achieve more through the power of cloud computing, AI and data. Learn about the vision, and the new realities, from Microsoft CVP of AI & Research Global, T.K. "Ranga" Rengarajan who will share innovations and the capabilities of the cloud with a guest appearance from Scott Hanselman to really drive the point home with a relevant and personal demo. If you can dream it, you can build it.
One day we woke up and things were different. Maybe it happened overnight, maybe it took many years. Suddenly we are scripting against thousands of Virtual Machines from the command line while creating things today with JavaScript in the browser that were impossible yesterday. LiveScript becomes JavaScript becomes ES6 and now we're compiling C++ to JS. Join Scott Hanselman as he explores the relationship between the Cloud and the Browser, many Languages and one Language, how it might all fit together and what might come next. NOTE: Non-technical business people and technical IT people alike will enjoy this lighthearted talk.
