A Zionist is a person who believes Jews should be able to return to their 3,500 year old historic homeland of Zion.
I am proudly, unapologetcally, and vehemently a Zionist.
Hey! Today we released the new - app store for Windows. 🎉 Proud of this work!

Announcing pwa-auth: a new sign-in component for the modern web. ✨🎉
It uses new web APIs to speed through sign-ins, it's lightweight, open source, and built with ❤ by the

team. 😎

Wait till they hear who wrote the the New Testament.
It's like these anti-Semites never considered that Christianity's core -- indeed its founder, his earliest followers, even there very idea a messiah -- are all Jewish.

@CapturingChrist
Fair question.
It's not special pleading to say God is eternal; atheists had said the same of the universe itself until evidence to the contrary was discovered in the mid-20th century.
Eternal things don't have a beginning; uncreated.

The old site was a React codebase built on an obsoleted UI framework. We created a fresh user experience with a thoughtfully designed interface, easier ways to discover new apps, modern web tech stack. I hope folks will find it useful.
"They attacked the colonizers."
But Jews are indigenous to Israel for 3,500 years.
"They attacked because of occupation."
But Israel withdrew from Gaza in 2005.
"They attacked because they are not free."
But Israel has offered statehood 6 times.

I've built SPAs in React, Angular, Vue, Knockout, and others. SPA frameworks were once needed because the web had no concept of self-contained components with data binding, change detection, etc.
Now that web components are part of the web, there's less need for such frameworks.

We considered it and experimented with an early Fast prototype when we started. Fast was missing a few components we needed. Shoelace had them. After discussing with the team, we went forward with Lit+Shoelace.

Three big social media PWAs are now in the Microsoft Store. They are pinned to my start menu. They are eating into my productivity.

My younger brother was found drowned today. CPR resuscitated him, but he is in a coma in the hospital. Please pray for him and read a psalm on his behalf.
@ProfFeynman
This is the same old pantheism in a nutshell that’s been around (and debunked) for thousands of years. Nature is the creation, not the creator.
And men have been worshipping nature (sun gods, tree gods, fertility gods and goddesses) forever.
Truly an ignorant quote.

Think of this as the web front to the app store on Windows. They work together.
I work on the same team as the Store desktop app team - they're great folks building the best in-box app on Windows. I wish more Windows in-box apps were as well-crafted as Store.
The gif above shows instant successive sign-in using the new Credential Management APIs. I was previously unware of these APIs, and I suspect a lot of devs are too. Read more about it here:

Kudos for standing your ground. The political correctness mob has gone too far and posts like yours are a natural and needed pushback. Thanks for making this.

The James Ossuary. This bone box may have held the body of James, the half brother of Jesus. Inscribed on the box is Jesus' original name, ישוע (Yeshua).

@jaffathecake
Super impressed by your communication skills during Google IO. You're lighthearted and goofy, but not over-the-top and forced. I enjoyed!
Also, this API is very exciting to me and I can't wait to start using it. I think it further closes the gap between native and web. 💯

Jerusalem has been the center of Judaism for 3500 years; a full 1500 years before Muhammed was born. I sincerely don't understand how Muslims can claim something that predates their own religion.

Saying Jews have blood on their hands bec your side lost an election isn't exactly going to convince people your side doesn't have an antisemitism problem

Yes and no. We are hardly a grain of sand, true. That's why the Bible says,
"When I consider the universe, the vastness and greatness of the work of Your hands, what is man, and why do You care for humanity?" (Psalm 8)

Also, it was a righteous Pharisee who gave Jesus an honorable burial.
Christians mistake Jesus' in-house critique of religious hypocrisy for wholesale condemnation of all Pharisees (or worse, all Jews).
Imagine if Jesus came today and critiqued the hypocrisy of e.g. a TV
Anti-Israel activists misuse the labels genocide and apartheid.
Genocide: deliberate destruction of an ethnic group. Rationally, if Israel wanted to commit genocide, it would not warn civilians to evacuate prior to attacks against Hamas.
Apartheid: systematic segregation and

We found that apps published with the platform were being rejected due to some odd artifacts of our project structure. We're retooling it.
The new Edge 81 and Chrome 81, released this week, have support web share on desktop. Super cool! Discovered it today because my PWA

started showing native share button. Progressive enhancement FTW!
Having to use CosmosDB at work has reminded me just how amazing RavenDB is.
The capabilities, the tooling, the API design, the cost: in all these and more, Raven is simply light years ahead.
I've tried both Cosmos SQL API and Table API. Maybe the Mongo API will be better.
I love web components, but one thing I don't like: component creep.
<Foo-Button> instead of <button>.
<App-Link> instead of <a>.
etc.
Each with their own proprietary attributes I have to learn.
And it's encouraged because shadow DOM breaks global styles.

A place to make your PWA better, whether with web components liking inking, auth, install, or through new web platform features like background fetch, shortcuts, wake lock, and more.

Beautiful! The Hebrew headline there reads:

Working the trades is great! But brutal honesty: tech work pays more. Way more. Not even close.
I say this with some authority: I work in tech, family in trades. Salaries are not at all comparable; junior tech workers often make more than mid-to-senior trade workers.

50 years, 5 months, and 29 days.
Jerusalem returned to Jewish hands on June 7th, 1967.
And today, December 6th, 2017, the world's superpower recognized it.
An historic day indeed.

Update: Aaron is out of critical condition, upgraded to stable. Still in a coma. My dad and older brother are with him in the hospital in Jerusalem.
I'm grateful for your prayers for Aaron and for the kindness shown to us over the last few days.
@FeserEdward
Good observation.
I'm a Zionist very much in favor of Israel against the evils of genocidal Hamas. But I would never say there are no bounds to Israel's retaliation. Most folks on this side of the fence would agree: Israel should never deliberately murder civilians, rape,
I see news articles saying X amplfies disinformation, e.g.
My experience is contrary.
Mainstream news sources like NYT, WaPo, Guardian, give opinions from the intellectual class whitewashing terrorism.
