They have no power to improve their lives, but they have the power to make others even more miserable, And the only way to prove to yourself that you have power is to use it.

Is this the two genders?

Weird that we have to say this, but the government doesnโ€™t get to decide what gender a person is.

Iโ€™m just glad that my faith in humanity isnโ€™t alive to see any of this.

Microsoft has done a lot in recent years to make it easier to approach for beginners.

Correct!

So far everything I've worked on is closed source.

I figure there's always more features/bugs/updates to be added. I do worry people would hold features hostage for a ludicrous amount of money but who knows.

Haven't decided yet. We test with MsTest so we may end up switching to the built in assertions.

I've always wondered if open source could benefit from crowd funding.

Kinda like bug bounties. Hit funding goal x for feature y.

Superficially it sounds cool but I suspect it'd be easily abused.

$130 per dev is a wild pricing decision.

Fluent Assertions changing to a paid model is going to cause a lot of work for me and my team.

Seems like a pretty specific use case. Unfortunately I don't deal with map mapping ๐Ÿ˜ž

Mapperly A .NET source generator for generating object mappings. No runtime reflection.

Like POCO mapping?

I've been using mapperly mapperly.riok.app

Remember all that stuff you said you would do next year? I have bad news for you.

It's just TV static after death.

The systems America has set up are geared to produce such a man. If not Trump someone else in the same style.

We may feel miserable about Something one day, and be able to laugh at it the next. Clearly the biggest challenge to our happiness is the mind.

I put myself in time out if I catch myself acting poorly to/around my kids. It's a real time out too just like they do.

When I say Bluesky is a bizarre and exciting experiment, this is both /not at all/ and /exactly/ what I mean.

The fact they are called trolls is not helping.
