@castillo__io Understanding the semantics, syntax and environments is a tiny fraction of the knowledge needed for application of that language in all possible contexts. That’s why SO exists to resolve edge cases and disclose solutions. AI just sits on top of that data and finds patterns.
One thing Service Fabric got right was recognizing the importance of stateful services. IMHO, what it got wrong was not focusing on that unique value and instead doing everything. The result was confusing, but I've always been a fan of that core offering
