About .Net Town

Microsoft technologies hav come a long way since Visual C++ 1.0, haven't they? Most of us have at least run into a VB app. ASP revolutionized (OK, did some cool stuff) with dynamic web pages. And, think about the CLR. Wondering what all this is? Been a while since you've dipped your feet in the Microsoft waters? (yo). Feel like you want to share what you've perfected and help all those heathens out there see how it's done ... right? Well, here's your group. I'll kick it off with a few generic discussions and you take it from there. It's new, it's cool, it's the .Net Town, here to inform you about one of the most popular software development technologies around. Do you feel like you're getting what you're paying for? Join this group and find out!

Need a bit of help. I am doing a project for school and I am having a bit of difficulties. I have a form "SandwichForm" and an inherited form "SummaryForm" The summary form opens when you click the submit button. What I would like to do is have both forms close after viewing and clicking an exit button on the "SummaryForm". Anyone have any suggestions?

Hello, all. Just joined. I'm attending meetings Sarasota Community Foundation as a member of the Sarasota .NET Developers Group. I'd love to know about any other meetings that are held; especially in the Bradenton/Sarasota area. If this wall is read, PLEASE inform me.

Platform as a Product: Delivering Value While Balancing Competing Priorities

Software platforms must be treated as products.

Google’s TurboQuant Compression May Support Faster Inference, Same Accuracy on Less Capable Hardware

Google Research unveiled TurboQuant, a novel quantization algorithm that compresses large language models’ Key-Value caches by up to 6x. With 3.5-bit compression, near-zero accuracy loss, and no retraining needed, it allows developers to run massive context windows on significantly more modest hardware than previously required. Early community benchmarks confirm significant efficiency gains.
