I'm yet to make my mind about JSON Structure in general, but I see the attempt to improve the data structure definition language for JSON, as well as the fact that it comes with a bunch of ready-to-use SDKs, as a very positive thing. json-structure.org

json-structure.org

JSON Structure

JSON Structure is a data structure definition language that enforces strict typing, modularity, and determinism.

So, the HTTP QUERY verb gets implementation in .NET 10 despite its spec still being a draft. Yes, I like this and it makes me happy. But the fact that at the same time we are already waiting 5 years for 103 Early Hints (github.com/dotnet/aspne...) makes me sad 😔

I know how that works, but it amuses me, why in highly paid industry, we're expecting to get tooling, knowledge for free by default. Also nowadays stealing others people intellectual property is called innovation and openness. There's no free lunch, and our industry should finally embrace it.
