Still a bin fire here?

Another year of incredible performance improvements in .NET 10!! devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/perform… #dotnet

Classic reinforcement of gender stereotypes from the @BBCNews. The national @RedRosesRugby team thrashes USA in the Women's Rugby World Cup, and the headline story is a male footballer daydreaming about being a wrestler. FFS 🤦

@mjovanovictech Dapper AND EF Core?

@deanleigh @YodasMyDad @attack_monkey I'd agree Dean - I have enjoyed BSky as I'm basically following the community and a few tech creators. It's not a energetic as it's been in the past, but the conversation has been respectful and appeared sincere. Can't say I've enjoyed being back here 😂😂😂

@YodasMyDad @attack_monkey @carlcod_es Possibly different communities Lee. Pretty much the entire front end community that was on here is now on blue sky. For me it feels exactly like the old days of Twitter there.

So - what's it like here these days? Still a bin-fire, or has normality returned in some measure

@The_DarkGhost Classic :-)

@carlcod_es Still a bin fire, but some nuggets of gold every now and then lol

It's almost time for today's Aspire Bootcamp! Today, I've got a full-day live stream. Follow along and learn all about .NET Aspire. You'll learn the why, how, and what Aspire is... and be ready to add it to your projects. bit.ly/48Agvea twitch.tv/csharpfritz

Just a reminder, because I was just reminded myself, that your .NET 8 Maui projects are end of life on the 14th of May. If you haven't already, please make sure you upgrade! dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/platform…

Just two days to go and we’ll be here with #DddSW2025!

With 4 tracks, 170+ guests and speakers, we need some help from the community, so we're looking for a few volunteers on Saturday to help with time management at DDDSW 2025. If you're free and would like to come along, and are able to help out please get in touch! Thank you🙏❤️

With only 4 days to go until DDD South West 2025, all our tickets are sold out and we have quite a waiting list! This is brilliant of course, but if for any reason you aren't able to come, and you have a ticket please release it so someone else can Thank You 🙏❤️

We couldn't put on these awesome events without our fantastic sponsors, and we'd like to thank Howden insurance! Come and meet them, and all our wonderful speakers at DDD South West on the 26th of April Thank you @Howden_UK

@pete_codes @hackaday @CliffordAgius Of cvourse - I remember, it was a big one too wasn't it. Happy belated birthday Cliff

@Eldhed 100% agree. And I'm very familiar with Sql - but query syntax is just .... just awful. Wrong content, fluent method syntax is the way

Who even uses the LINQ query syntax? It's an abomination.

@ShahidDev @Office365 Very - but I was redirected there internally from the office.com page, and it happened on multiple computers too. Someone somewhere forgot a certificate...

@carlcod_es @Office365 The insecure page looks sus

Ok - this is a weird one - anyone else having problems installing @Office365 with a reported outage? Not seeing anything on socials, but I can't download the installer on win 11
