Tips and picks

Microsoft kicked off August a day early

App pick of the week: Microsoft Edge?
In the next version of Windows 10, Microsoft Edge may finally get there
Enterprise pick of the week: Windows 10 Enterprise for Remote Sessions
A nice spot by Tero Alhonen: Windows 10 Enterprise for Remote Sessions. This might be the rumored multi-session Windows 10 Enterprise edition that I heard about a few months ago. Alhonen found a mention of what looks to be a new Windows 10 edition in a recent Windows 10 test build.
Codename pick of the week: Strada
This is a codename from the vault. “Strada” was original codename for TypeScript, Microsoft’s superset of JavaScript, which officials introduced way back in 2012. It’s this week’s pick because MS just shipped TypeScript 3.0.
Beer pick of the week: Lagunitas IPA
Tomorrow, August 2, is national IPA day! Wooooh! So here’s a recommendation for an old favorite from Lagunitas in Petaluma, Calif. – its flagship Lagunitas IPA. It’s not gimmicky. It’s not overly hoppy. It’s widely available and it’s still quite tasty.
