@Retrojody Are these available to buy anywhere? I am sure I saw them on Etsy or somewhere like that but can’t seem to find it again

Can anyone point me in the right direction please @shanselman or your followers?

I have a .net 5 project that uses nuget, build with internet access, & deployed 2 VM without internet. 3rd party test tool we use does a dotnet restore/ build, app tries 2 d load nuget packages & fails due 2 lack of net. Can I get VS2022 to store packages with the sln @dotnet

@getgauge is it possible to prevent a dotnet build when running specs. Migrated from C# to .net5 and the build is causing issues as the VM it runs on has no net access. Previously it was all built, packaged and pushed to the vm via Octopus. Then ran using the built dlls.

In VisualStudio, My csproj file uses wildcards to add all files under a dir to be included in the solution. Adding files outside of VS works great. If I drag a file in to VS it updates my proj file with that file. Can I can prevent this happening? @VisualStudio @shanselman

@EmmaBostian I have seen examples of using [excludefromcodecoverage] in vs to get 100% coverage, argument is if it is 100% & you add code, you work harder to ensure it won’t go below 100%. What a farce they are skewing the numbers. 80% quality code coverage beats 100% pretend coverage.

My personal opinion: Having 100% test coverage doesn't make your code more effective. Tests should add value but at some point being overly redundant and testing absolutely every line of code is ineffective. Ex) Testing that a component renders doesn't IN MY OPINION add value.

@AnalystCave Does this approach still work? I thought windows had stopped supporting vbscript. I mean if this still works then I could find many weird and wonderful ways to utilise it. I know you mention being able to use JavaScript also so that is a plus

Like VBA? You will love HTA! (HTA example using VBS) #VBA, #Excel analystcave.com/vbs-hta-exampl…

@phorsight2020 JavaScript or Python would be a good starter language. Very little setup to get it going, plenty of resources for all ages. only briefly looked at python with a pi but so far it seems quite intuitive apart from spacing instead of {} and having to forget certain things like ;

So my nephew wants get into programming and an not sure what language to recommend he starts with. Any advice guys?

@phorsight2020 I guess depending on where you host your site will have a bit of an impact on your pipelines. I still find Jenkins with its GitHub/bitbucket hooks to be the easiest to set up.

@JEnsor247 Hey Dude!! I wanted to do the full cycle development so I have decided to use .NET api for the db side of things. Still deciding between sql or mongo db. Once I get that off the ground then I can start looking tools for my pipelines CI/CD side of things

I need advice from you seasoned dev. So wanted to create a responsive website(using html, css,JS)with database hookup in backend- I come 4rm C# bckgrd. What framework is best 4 d job plz

@KevlinHenney For me I find that “” can be used everywhere but there are cases where you can not pass in String.Empty so I totally agree it breaks consistency. Also no matter what language I use “” or ‘’ give the same results so, 1 less new thing to learn in a language if porting solutions

I would be interested to know if anyone has any sound reasons for using string.Empty rather than "" in .NET. What are the reasons to follow a practice that introduces inconsistency into code and has no optimisation benefits or, from what I can tell, any benefits at all?

I just hate asking a question on stackoverflow to find someone else asked the same question only to find out it was me years ago and no one answered it.

Is it possible to use WithEvents to modify a userform initialize event in VBA? @rubberduckvba @NoLongerSet just toying with a few ideas and wondered if you had ever tried the above. I’m gonna assume it’s not possible but just thought I would ask.

@NoLongerSet Im assuming the web browser control is same for excel as access? Ive used Winforms version previously 2 load up local site with bootstrap to do all html/css for the UI which worked well. Winform just hosts the browser. Curious as to whether the same could be done in excel

@getgauge are there any documents explaining the process of upgrading from .net framework to .net core version of Gauge? Or would you suggest just create a new repo and rewrite the code? Only recently been introduced to Gauge so it’s a learning curve for me

@ReportPortal_io I have report portal working with Docker on Windows however I want to use an existing RabbitMq instance on local machine. I am not finding much info....do you have any pointers that could help?
