Sometimes, words are like good wine; time is required to fully appreciate their true essence.

dotnet watch support for Aspire is coming in the next version of the .NET SDK (9.0.200). We rewrote the whole thing 😅.

This should improve scenarios where you need to change individual projects without restarting the entire app host.

What did you decide to go with? Shouldly or NUnit/xUnit assertions or other options?

All good points 👇

Idea: CodeFeed Non-blocking code review

CodeFeed tidyfirst.substack.com/p/idea-codef... is an idea of mine for delivering real-time, personalized updates about changes to a system. I just tried writing it with GenAI & it was totally not the experience I wanted.

The model tried to generate the whole system for me. I wanted a pair partner.

Critical: .NET Install links are changing

Yeah, looks like Reqnroll is under active maintenance. Considering using it.

Looks like #SpecFlow is completely gone. GitHub repositories are no longer available. Packages are still available, though. I’m stunned by the irresponsibility demonstrated by the maintainers. Not a word they uttered from the moment the community began to express concern about it. #dotnet

I don’t know the setting, maybe it is something about writing style, like “Prefer enclosing tags”.

The first one is faster, because it has explicit enclosing tag?

Eventually, I suppose, I’ll install Rosetta to try out some games. As a consumer, I can understand why it’s not a simple task to make games run natively on Mac. However, when it comes to small utilities or even command-line tools, it’s quite frustrating. 👀

It’s quite uncommon these days to encounter a program that requires Rosetta to run, especially since Docker now functions natively on Mac without it. When you encounter an app that insists on installing Rosetta, it leaves you speechless. #arm #mac

I upgrade an entire project from .NET 8 to .NET 9, it just works. No hassle. Just... done.

I try to run a nodeJS build that worked YESTERDAY, with no changes, and it fails because the nodeJS ecosystem is about as stable as a tectonically active goth on rollerskates after a litre of supermarket gin.

Collection expressions feature is my favourite among the ones introduced in C# 12. It makes code much simpler, expressive, and readable.

The situation in Russian agriculture is frankly poor; this year, there wasn’t even the usual seasonal drop in food inflation.

It’s not that simple. Russia relies on Western potato seeds for its agriculture. This year, they tried switching to domestic seeds, but it led to lower yields and reduced planting areas, resulting in higher prices. All agricultural machinery is Western-made, but it is under sanctions.

We’re looking at moving async state machine generation into the JIT and out of C#. This should enable many optimizations that are hard to accomplish today in async code (inlining etc).

Kaplan Meier curve showing the cumulative incidence of type 2 diabetes in people given tirzepatide vs placebo

This month, a phase 3 trial of tirzepatide (a GLP-1 drug) found that it reduced the chances of developing type 2 diabetes by around 90% (!), among people with obesity and pre-diabetes.

That's a reduction if I ever saw one.

So who wants a verified 'Microsoft' and 'Microsoft MVP' label on their profile and all the posts?

I just finished setting up @bluesky.ms as a labelling service.

Go subscribe to the label to start seeing labels on verified MVPs and Microsofties.

Should we support Durable Functions in the new Azure Functions + Aspire integration?

Awesome. Didn’t know that. Will try to enforce formatting rules during ci runs on some secondary projects.

Holy shit. I know people who rely on that Google search and the AI results for medical advice.

The website vs app split for Bluesky vs Threads captures the difference in user base and usage patterns beautifully.

Bluesky = knowledge sector workers who have it open all day in a tab next to their emails. “Wait what was I doing again?”

Threads = normies watching recipe videos on the commute.

I came across .NET Framework being referred to as a “full” framework about a year ago. 🫠 (I think that was on Reddit.) Rebranding was a good move, but still .NET “flavours” (Core, Framework, Standard) might confuse newcomers (even Core is not a thing anymore). Anyway, .NET rocks. 😎

That’s so unfortunate that Minimal API has such a name. It is not minimal, it’s modern and allows to do everything from an old MVC API approach. “Minimal” faulty suggests it is not serious and not fully functional (as it could have been perceived by some making decisions people). #dotnet #naming

Mac Mini M4 will induce a significant shift of the private computing market to Mac. Usually, Apple creates markets, but I suspect we will see the fall of an old and stagnated market in favour of Apple. Really interesting times we are living in.
