I did get a smoking/suit thingy.
Pretty sure they will let you in wearing anything though :D
I have accumulated some weight, so none of my suits were usable :/

Streamers and content creators!
I need soundproofing. What do you use?
We have a large room 20mΒ² (215ftΒ²), it is very echoey.
We have upgraded from a headset to a Shure SM7B; the SM7B picks up a lot more of the room.

Please share your setup and learnings from soundproofing ❀️

Are Blazor developers real? πŸ‘€
Spoiler: YES β€” and finding them might be easier than you think.

I share lessons from .NET’s early days, Angular/React habits, and why C# & ASP.NET are the keys to Blazor.

I've been wanting to share these for an age because I'm so proud of them. But there were surprise gifts for @engstromjess.bsky.social and @engstromjimmy.bsky.social so I couldn't πŸ˜… Logos are super hard, but I'm so happy with how far my drawing skills have come in 3 years!

-Will Blazor meet the same fate as Silverlight?
This is still to this day one of the most common questions I get.
In this new video, I break down why Silverlight failed and why (spoilers) that fate does not apply to Blazor.

Don't spend 1 hour writing code when you can spend 10 hours failing to vibe code it.

I honestly enjoy vibe coding, at least to a degree. It gives me a moment of rubber ducking at the same time as the problem (hopefully) gets solved.
What do you think?
Do you vibe code?

I made a Blazor Web App run on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W… and used it to control an LED with Meadow!
.NET 9 + Blazor + GPIO on a Pi β€” it's oddly satisfying. 😎

When Scott Hanselman presents, you know you're going to have a good time.
I didn't expect tears. My parents didn't sell their van, but they did buy me my first computer. Without their belief in me, I wouldn't be where I am today.

Thanks Scott, for reminding me of this ❀️

Today I soldered for the first time in many years. I do not like the smell of solder. I used to work with soldering, I do not miss that. But hopefully there will be some fun videos in the future :D
