What are the biggest benefits of using NET Core in comparison with Go, Ruby, Python?

I second this. Contacted [email protected] and [email protected] and received no response.

There are some good tutorials about Xamarin Forms, e.g. https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/xamarin-forms/getting-s....

Xamarin Forms Labs is a great open source project for controls and services using Xamarin Forms: https://github.com/XLabs/Xamarin-Forms-Labs

The great thing about Xamarin Forms is you can use Dependency Injection [1] to access the Native features. I started with Xamarin Forms without any pre-knowledge of iOS or Android development. I use Xamarin Forms on a daily basis and share 99% of my code.

That is awesome Nat! Do you have any plan open sourcing Xamarin Studio as well?

You can check out this FB group https://www.facebook.com/groups/launchpad/. It's the most well known discussion group for startups in Viet Nam. Around 70% of the posts include English translation.

With the word startup I actually mean founders and early employees. Sorry for the unclear wording and thank you for your opinion.

The fact is most startups will fail[1]. If I fail and try again and again, statistically I will probably fail eventually. Therefore, most of us will end up working for other companies. Statistically again, there are a lot more employees in well established companies than startups so most of us will likely end up working for well established/large organizations.

So my question is: does the experience, the knowledge I learn from startups helps me on my probably eventual job in an established company? Should I just go work for a large company right away so I can be good at what I will end up doing? It seems to be opposite to what PG said[2].

What should I do if I think I am just a mediocre engineer? Just working for well established companies?
