• Why unhandled exceptions are useful

  - by Simon Cooper

• How does timeseal work? [on hold]

  - by Simon Meyer

• Subterranean IL: The ThreadLocal type

  - by Simon Cooper

  I came across ThreadLocal<T> while I was researching ConcurrentBag. To look at it, it doesn't really make much sense. What's all those extra Cn classes doing in there? Why is there a GenericHolder<T,U,V,W> class? What's going on? However, digging deeper, it's a rather ingenious solution to a tricky…

• Why enumerator structs are a really bad idea (redux)
