@TechnologyTulip We definitely need more of this. Our profession needs a more philosophical and scientific foundation.

My NDC talk got 10K views in 2 weeks! By far my most popular talk, feels weird as many advised to tone down the philosophy, now it feels like it’s the scientific material that’s less accessible. The aim of the philosophy was to make the science easier to grasp, I hope it works!

@davidfowl @kellabyte Let's not go down that rabbit hole. 😂

@explorenet @kellabyte Depends on what you mean by platform.

What’s the connection between Azure Monitor Application Insights (holy Microsoft naming meme Batman) and Aspire. I don’t see an Aspire cloud service?

@davidfowl @kellabyte Somehow that's not very clear at first. First impression is that it's some kind of platform.

@kellabyte Aspire is a tool chain and libraries, it can produce assets that target a cloud service.

requesting a piece so i can lick it (for science)

@jbogard Any chance you're passing through Belgium to give this course?

I'll be in Switzerland in April with my newest course on Vertical Slice Architecture. Who's in?

@mjovanovictech Why can't we simply use constructors? Extra keywords that don't really add value. Another way of solving a problem that already had a solution. It doesn't even fix the problem when you can create a valid instance with different sets of required properties.

What is the required keyword in C#? You can use it starting from C# 11. The required keyword indicates a member must be initialized when creating a new object. Where is this helpful? Constructors allowed you to achieve this. But some people prefer using C# object initializers. And nothing forces you to set a property in an object initializer. Until now, at least... Because you can use the required keyword to achieve this. In combination with nullable reference types, you can create a robust design. If you try to create a new object instance and don't assign a value to a required property, you'll get a compile error. Now, you can use object initializers and not worry about members not having a value assigned. P.S. Want to become a better software engineer?

@mjovanovictech Absolutely, the database isn't a little detail that you can abstract away behind an ORM.

The biggest mistake I made as a beginner engineer: - Not learning SQL SQL databases have been around for 40+ years for a reason. You'll never understand the power of databases if you rely only on ORMs. Instead, focus on the following: - SQL fundamentals - Data modeling - Transactions - Indexing Master relational databases! It is worth it. You'll grow 10x faster. P.S. Repost this to help others grow 10x faster. ♻️

@MrPeterLMorris Use the same handler to handle both requests. So the handler implements two IHandle interfaces.

@datalust_seq @RollupJS @vuejs @typescript @codemirror If you're a long-time Seq user, you might also notice that browser "Back" button navigation has changed for the better 😅

We're ready for your feedback on Seq 2023.4! We've completely rewritten date range selection for Dashboards and Events, along with a stack of other improvements. 😊 Grab the preview MSI from datalust.co/download, or pull datalust/seq:preview from Docker Hub.

@jbogard After the whole MOQ discussion we developers now have another valid reason for not writing unit tests anymore?

evidently my unit test project is vulnerable to Regular Expression denial of service attacks. how will I sleep at night

@TaniaSachdev Can we consider this to be the real world championship match?

Praggnanandhaa takes down World no.3 ✅ World no.2 ✅ And now the ultimate fight, World Cup Final

@davidpine7 Should logging be a dependency and as such be injected in the ctor? Does your code depend on the logger to do its thing?

I noticed that I tend to place the ILogger<T> as the last .ctor parameter, but I'm not sure why I do this... It just feels a bit less important that the other bits, but it really doesn't matter. I'm curious, does anyone have strong opinions on this and why? #dotnet #csharp #di

@shanselman Playing TOTK is not nothing, it's a huge undertaking!

I did NOTHING. All day.

Ask me what I did today. Ask me.

@iamharaldur Computers/ai are already better at chess than humans will ever be. Did we stop playing chess?

@lievenscheire waar kunnen we astronomische objecten van naam veranderen? Bij het sterren kijken heb ik de dochter Orion's Nebula getoond en uitgelegd dat zo'n nevel gassen zijn. Zij zegt nu dat dat zijn scheet is, qua positie in het sterrenbeeld klop dat wel. Dus: Orion's Fart.

@liammclennan Indeed, the story is often missing the "story". It just says what has to be done.
