This week, Jon will be the "Jonny on the spot" for once (Allan already has his boots on ready to grill). He'll demo the ultimate mobile dev tool he made.

We'll also be continuing to noodle on ideas for the new .NET project. Friday 2pm EST @ youtube.com/@GoneDotNet

#moltbot required $12 in Claude tokens (opus 4.5) to go download all my hydro bill pdfs from 2025. Yikes.

@redth.bsky.social is out for the next few weeks, so you're stuck with @allanritchie.com jokes. Can @jfversluis.dev save us? He'll be showing off .NET MAUI+Aspire. Can Gerald possibly convince Allan to "drink the koolaid" where Jon failed?

My son and I have been cheering on the #TorontoBlueJays all season, and it’s been a lot of fun to watch together. Made it to one game in the summer, and now he is going to absolutely lose his mind when he comes home and sees his calendar today!

Seriously good stuff here! Trust me, you want to be making things compatible with AOT as much as you can, and having libraries you can use which take this goal seriously is extremely helpful. Time to update some dependencies in my app!

We've been on a path of destruction with source generators. We're on a mission to make all of our libraries as fast as possible while becoming fully AOT compliant. Today, we're releasing a bunch of new libraries to help you code your #dotnet #dotnetmaui apps faster - Read Thread

I develop an app as a side project, and while many reviews are positive, others are constructively critical, which is actually quite helpful.

Then there are these which are neither. Don’t be this person.

Don’t worry, the sportsnet panel is praising this play (err, dive, embellishment, whatever you want to call it) just as you’d expect them to.

Some mornings if the wind is blowing just right, you can smell the onion rings being fried at the nearby factory. I don’t hate it.
