LLM interviews are NOT hard if you do this! These are literally the questions most candidates wish they’d seen earlier. I visualized a curated list of 50 LLM interview questions — shared by Hao Hoang. Want this 5-page PDF? Follow me (so I can DM you) Reply with “VisualLLM” I’ll send it over for free! 👇

@DeclanCarey Terrible graphic ....Had to zoom in 300% 🤓

@KarenPayneMVP That snippet is crying out for an old fashioned IF ELSE....sometimes more lines of code is for the better.

@MaouriceG @nickproud What's under the hood...the CLR is it? Not sure I'd agree with "extremely easy". No easier than Java, Go etc....

@nickproud dotnet makes it extremely easy to build anything, sometimes too easy, many of us have no idea what's happening under the hood, just because it works, doesn't mean it's a good idea.

Most C# devs don’t have performance problems. They have clarity problems — and they reach for “optimization” when they should reach for understanding. #dotnet #coding

@nickproud How many or what percentage is "most" ?

@KarenPayneMVP Dapper +1

What is your preference, EF Core or Dapper? (SQL is inline, but could be a stored proc)

@RickStrahl Compiler magic has cropped up a lot in C# in recent years. There wasn't much wrong with private members to begin with. Declare it and let the IDE generate property. Now you need to start the property declaration before auto complete kicks in to fill out the get; set; 🙃

I really like the removal of clutter of field backed properties in C# 14. Especially nice for things like INotifyPropertyChanged as it removes the separate field ref just for the notification code. #the-field-keyword" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">learn.microsoft.com/en-us/dotnet/c…

@schneidenbach 👎

you .NET folk aren't ready for this conversation

@okyrylchuk At some point somewhere in the codebase your gonna have to check for null customer 🫣

C# 14 in the preview allows the null conditional member access operator on the left-hand side of an assignment. Previously, you had to check if the customer was null before assigning the order. In C# 14, the GetCurrentOrder method is not called if the customer is null.

Your first programming language will always have a special place in your heart. What was yours?

Ever wonder how AMD beat Intel with their own instruction set? This is the inside story of X64... RT if you like exclusive pre-release videos on X!

@CordasFilip @Dave_DotNet Have a VB6 app running in production since 2002 😅 no sleepless nights.....yet. .Net 2.0 winforms app running for about 18 years...

@KennethFCarey @Dave_DotNet No dotnet apps actually run in production for a long time I personally worked on stuff from 2004, and good architecture solves a lot of issues you run into only if you actively developed things for a long time.

Not sure how much architectural BS is out there in other platforms but there sure is a lot in #dotnet

@lovelacecoding C Object Oriented Language....if memory serves me?

@TheCodeMan__ Just declare the backing field 🫣

.NET 10 Preview is here! What's new in C# 14 - The field keyword. In the past, to prevent a string property from being set to null, you had to define a backing field and manually implement both accessors. The token field allows you to define a property accessor body without explicitly declaring a backing field. Instead, the compiler generates a backing field automatically. You can declare a body for one or both accessors for a field backed property. In cases where a field named field already exists in the type, @field or this.field can be used to differentiate. Potential Use Cases Validation: Ensuring that a property always follows certain constraints. P.S. You are not that crazy not to join our free community: TheCodeMan.net #Dotnet #csharp14

@Dave_DotNet Keep fighting the good fight @Dave_DotNet in highlighting nonsense like this 👍

Program.cs bootstraps our MessageSender & MessageReceiver and accepts user input from the Console.

I plan to introduce the excellent @prismlib to beginners using simple, easy to follow examples. First up is the Event Aggregator. github.com/LanceUppercut/… This Console app demonstrates loosely-coupled publish/subscribe functionality - with no IoC container.
