I am genuinely SUPER EXCITED to announce that support for C# file-based apps (new in #dotnet 10) is now enabled in the C#/C# Dev Kit extensions for VS Code *by default*! We're going to continue refining & improving this experience over the coming months so update today!

If you're using Visual Studio and Azure, then you'd love how the new Azure MCP server can give you superpowers. Check out this video from the team!

@housecor Any time! Great to catch up with you.

@Scott_Addie Pleasure hanging out this week. Thanks for letting me be the third wheel at dinner!

Just visited The Netherlands for the first time to speak at Techorama. I explored Amsterdam and Utrecht. As an American, here’s a few things I admired: 1. Probably the best transit infrastructure of any country I’ve visited. Trains run often, there are many buses and trams, bike lanes are nearly everywhere, and cities are dense and walkable. 2. Portions are smaller. Pastries, soups, sandwiches, etc are smaller. 3. Food isn’t as sweet. In the US, desserts are often overly sweet. And many foods like sauces and meats have added sugar. Here desserts are subtly sweet, so I can enjoy the other flavors, and normal food doesn’t seem sweetened. Even jelly is subtly sweet, and tastes like fresh fruit instead of merely sweet. 4. Bread is better. It’s delicious, I can cut it myself, and it’s clearly higher quality. 5. I watched literally 100s of bikers fly by my hotel window every few minutes. It feels unreal. There are underground bike parking garages and many bikes parked off street throughout the city. It was cold and rainy most of my stay and that didn’t stop people. They put on a coat and rode anyway. Lesson: If you create bike infrastructure, people will use it. 6. The cities are peaceful. Since bikes are silent, trains and trams are electric, and cars are infrequent, it’s wonderful to just stroll around. Also people here rarely honk. 7. I saw very few people who appeared homeless during my 5 day stay. It seems the social safety systems are superior here. 8. Most cars are small, and some are hilariously small - like as long as an American car is wide. This feels much more efficient than the US’ fixation on big trucks and SUVs.

@saltnburnem @samidip @EdCharbeneau Miss you, brotha!

@samidip @Scott_Addie @EdCharbeneau Whoa, Scott still exists?

Ran into good ole @Scott_Addie. Missing @EdCharbeneau to complain about things 😇

@samidip @EdCharbeneau Great to catch up with you, Sam! Grandpa Ed should’ve been here.

We just published the October roadmap for AI in Visual Studio. Check it out! devblogs.microsoft.com/visualstudio/r…

@samidip @schneidenbach @UnoPlatform Congrats, Sam! They’re lucky to have you.

Starting life as the Lead Dev Advocate for @UnoPlatform 💜🎉 Excited to do wonderful things with an awesome team. And make .NET developers productive everywhere!

We just published a preview of a @nuget MCP server to assist in some of your Copilot workflows in developer tools and GitHub Coding Agent! 📰 devblogs.microsoft.com/dotnet/nuget-m…

@Aaronontheweb The patch has shipped 🎉 nuget.org/packages/Azure…

@Aaronontheweb The release pipeline is running. v1.14.2 will be available shortly: #1142-2025-07-10" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">github.com/Azure/azure-sd…

I am kind of disturbed by this - someone inside Microsoft, presumably, was able to delete our package versions that were impacted by their vulnerability. Not just delist them - but outright _delete_ our package version. Would any other vendor be able to do this?

Azure MCP Server now has 14 services - you get them all with `azmcp server start` or your own custom subset with `azmcp server start --service storage keyvault` github.com/Azure/azure-mc… #ai #mcp #azure #aidev
