🚀 The first public preview of Visual Studio 2026 is here! We sat down with @madskristensen.net to talk monthly updates, Copilot magic (Profiler Agent ✨), performance boosts, modern UI, and why bug reports are actually gifts. 🎧 Listen now 👉 buff.ly/k9VH39r Available where podcasts are =)

Streamers and content creators! I need soundproofing. What do you use? We have a large room 20m² (215ft²), it is very echoey. We have upgraded from a headset to a Shure SM7B; the SM7B picks up a lot more of the room. Please share your setup and learnings from soundproofing ❤️

Are Blazor developers real? 👀 Spoiler: YES — and finding them might be easier than you think. I share lessons from .NET’s early days, Angular/React habits, and why C# & ASP.NET are the keys to Blazor. 🎥 Watch here 👉 buff.ly/r6zs2ZG #Blazor #dotnet #webdev

I've been wanting to share these for an age because I'm so proud of them. But there were surprise gifts for @engstromjess.bsky.social and @engstromjimmy.bsky.social so I couldn't 😅 Logos are super hard, but I'm so happy with how far my drawing skills have come in 3 years!

-Will Blazor meet the same fate as Silverlight? This is still to this day one of the most common questions I get. In this new video, I break down why Silverlight failed and why (spoilers) that fate does not apply to Blazor.

Don't spend 1 hour writing code when you can spend 10 hours failing to vibe code it. I honestly enjoy vibe coding, at least to a degree. It gives me a moment of rubber ducking at the same time as the problem (hopefully) gets solved. What do you think? Do you vibe code?

I made a Blazor Web App run on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W… and used it to control an LED with Meadow! .NET 9 + Blazor + GPIO on a Pi — it's oddly satisfying. 😎 💻 Watch the video: buff.ly/Hg32KUy #dotnet #blazor #IoT #raspberrypi #meadow @wildernesslabs.bsky.social

When Scott Hanselman presents, you know you're going to have a good time. I didn't expect tears. My parents didn't sell their van, but they did buy me my first computer. Without their belief in me, I wouldn't be where I am today. Thanks Scott, for reminding me of this ❤️ buff.ly/qnlcl7a

I just connected real sensors to a Blazor app using C#. Blazor controlling hardware? Yep. Thanks to Meadow from Wilderness Labs, my breadboard’s alive! If I can do this, so can you! 🔥 Full video here: buff.ly/47z6IQn #Blazor #IoT #CSharp #Meadow #DotNet #Hardware

I like Lego, I like components. One hurts more than the other!

Today I soldered for the first time in many years. I do not like the smell of solder. I used to work with soldering, I do not miss that. But hopefully there will be some fun videos in the future :D

🚀 New episode of the Coding After Work podcast! We chat with @anthonychu.ca about Azure Container Apps, dynamic sessions, serverless GPUs, and why Kubernetes doesn’t have to hurt. Also: pasta, and the best Spider-Man. 🕷️🎧 🎙️ Listen now: buff.ly/4Ftzk3D #Azure #Kubernetes #Podcast #MSBuild

So thank you @engstromjimmy.bsky.social for the amazing work on that last chapter. I may bnot agree with all the comments, but every single one made me think and has contributed to improving the book!

Final chapter of the book back from @engstromjimmy.bsky.social after his technical review. Pffttt. It was a lot. But rather than thinking how bad I am at this (my normal resposne) instead I went through 1 by 1. The chapter is already much better, & I'm actually looking forward to the 2nd pass!

What do you call a programmer who doesn't use Stack Overflow or LLMs? … .. . A liar.

This is my absolute favorite "session" with ‪@scott.hanselman.com‬. Back in 2013, some of us got a chance to sit down and chat with Scott. A very jetlagged Scott shared stories, tips, tricks, and so much more. Nothing was prepared, just an hour or so of Q&A.

Things I have learned today: Dawn is apparently 3am!? #MSBuild #Jetlagged

Being an adult is so weird. I'm just unsupervised all the time? That can't be safe.

I did a Triple O (Old Old Old) game in Blazor WASM. I was thinking of doing it Rust WASM... github.com/SteveDunn/Pa... Play it here... stevedunn.github.io/PacManBlazor/

CSS specificity is the Ivan Drago of web dev. It breaks your styles without mercy. 🥶 Learn how to fight back before it breaks you. New video is live: buff.ly/8bBmCwY It just might make you hate CSS less. If I can change, and you can change, Everybody can change!

8 years ago, our cat decided to take a nap in the HoloLens case =) It's a HoloLens development KIT not Kitten. I didn't have the heart to wake her up 😕 #MeowReality
