@Voultar You have the worst luck with health...

Well.... I thought I had the flu but now I have blisters in my mouth and this painful rash all over my body. I'm going to be down for just a few days, friends. Sorry!

@JessicaValenti The GOP’s thirst for low-cost worker bees with no prospects is unquenchable! I wonder if there’s a book that would say what they’re doing is evil? 🤔🤔✝️

I’m calling it now: Republicans will try to make hormonal birth control illegal for teenagers

Wise words

@davidfowl Word.

I’ve not seen anything defeat developers like CORS does.

Here’s some CoPilot features I’d like to see integrated in @VisualStudio: - Keystroke to type a prompt & have it generate code in-line - Keystroke to have CoPilot generate XML comments (without having to explicitly ask) - “Apply” button at bottom of reposes as well as the top

@mkristensen I didn’t even think of that. Thanks!

@PkiMike I believe if you put the cursor on the "set" or "get" and hit F12, you get what you're asking for

@mkristensen Hi! Here are a couple of things I'd really like in VS: - When adding a watch when debugging, I'd like Intellisense to autocomplete and show me the available fields & properties when I type "." - In addition to "Find all references": "Find Assignments" + "Find Gets"

@NealCuliner @mkristensen Getting anything working in Rider is a real pain, though. Everything source control just seems to just work seamlessly OOTB in VS

@mkristensen Once again I’m sorry to say Rider does it better.

Is that little blue lock icon next to files in Solution Explorer useful for showing source control status?

@davepl1968 Hey Dave, do you have any stories about mkcompat.exe? That program was a miracle that got legacy software working on XP (I think?)

@Ifindjewtards @FrankAtHPP @VEsoterica It’s apples & oranges because the 32X was an intermediate upgrade to a platform in deep decline, while the PS5 was a full generational leap, following up a platform that was still going strong

I'm spending my Saturday morning imagining how things would have played out had Ultimate DOOM 32X Resurrection been the game that released in holiday 94. What an incredible port that really shows what the hardware could do. Thanks for the tip, @VEsoterica!

@Voultar You’re like a member of the party fighting Zeromus at the end of FFIV. He keeps hitting you with Big Bang, but you keep getting back up after some Curaja from Rosa!

@Wassimulator @Microsoft How many times did you defer the update?

Wanted to check on a patient, but Windows decided it’s update time. Thanks, @Microsoft for keeping us connected to the traditional ways of doing medicine.

@davepl1968 Yeah, but then you have to use MacOS 🤢🤮

M1 MAX Macbook is still my daily driver since new!

@shivi1026 AppleSoft BASIC

First programming language you ever learned ?

@DevLeaderCa Avoid at all costs

Do you find that you use reflection (explicitly) in CSharp and DotNet? Or avoid at all costs?

@davepl1968 ML (pure functional language. Relatively useless but fun), QBASIC, Pascal, VBScript. Oh and AppleSoft/GW BASIC.

What programming languages have you learned along the way that are now obsolete? For me, it's Ada, Prolog, VBScript... and maybe REXX if you count that!

@GauravArora_ @rqobela Yep. My high school had a BASIC course and a Pascal course.

@rqobela Any Pascal programmers here ?...My first language ..I loved it..Time from history when floppy disk ruled...I did a school project of creating Quiz master...like "Who wants to be a millionaire" or a KBC in India..

Programming language you learnd but never used again is...?
