Back in 2007 Ralf Herbrich and co. wrote a research paper called "TrueSkill Through Time". Their sample code was written with a pre-release of F# 1.0, and was not updated to F# in Visual Studio 2010. Here is an update of this code for F# in Visual Studio 2010, as requested by some people commenting on that blog entry. Please note that I'm not an expert in the code, and that it does currently require a database connection to use (to save the analysis results)

More F# Hadoop goodness from Carl Nolan. This time a compositional framework for submitting F# and C# Azure/Hadoop map-reduce jobs.    Framework for Composing and Submitting .Net Hadoop MapReduce Jobs If you have been following my blog you will see that I have been putting together samples for writing .Net Hadoop MapReduce jobs; using Hadoop Streaming. However one thing that became apparent is that the samples could be reconstructed in a composable  framework to enable one to submit .Net based MapReduce jo[...]

Do you want to write succinct, type-safe and correct HTML5 web code which is not full of bugs?  Writing Javascript-executing code with F# is appealing for these and other reasons I've gone into before, and the open source Pit and WebSharper frameworks give ways to use F# to write HTML5/Javascript code for web and mobile applications. But what's it like to write this kind of F# code? What's it like to really write efficient, strongly-typed code that converts to Javascript?  On DeveloperFusion, Anton Tayanov[...]

Last year, my wonderful peers in Microsoft Research developed the first versions of TouchDevelop, a touch-based programming environment. You can now find out all about TouchDevelop at the one big URL: www.touchdevelop.com and follow them on Twitter at @touchdevelop. Well done to the whole TouchDevelop team, and to Microsoft Connections for supporting this project. I'm sure many great things are coming for TouchDevelop from here!
