Good thing is, that a the good stuff they do (C#, TypeScript, Visual Studio Code) is not limited to Windows use.

You're right but this puts me off among other things: https://github.com/dotnet/cli/issues/3093

(even though I've been writing C# for 15 years now)

I wonder for past few years about backup language/stack/job for me, because my technical life has been MS only. And quite often discontinued tech (Silverlight, WebForms).

I should get that going I guess. I just can't decide what to learn and it's difficult to find time (nodejs? Go? Python?).

I really like Erlang. Python seems to pay the bills though ;)
