  <description>It is 2018 and we are so over Linked Files, Portable Class Libraries, or Shared Projects cluttering up our libraries. In fact we only need ONE project to target every platform that .NET supports. It is time to multi-target the world! We take a look at this awesome new feature and tell you what it is all about and why you would want to use it. We also take a look at some of the gotchas right now to help you make the choice to make the big switch or not.

  <description>C# and F# and Go! Oh my! There are just so many lovely programming languages to learn, but where to start? This week we take a look at what worked for us and what didn’t. James has recently been trying to wrap his head around F#, a functional programming language, and it just hasn’t stuck yet. Maybe because he uses C# all day, or the change from  procedural to functional? We tackle all these topics and more on this week's Merge Conflict.
