LOUD NOISES

@maddymontaquila.net when does this get updated to 9.5? also congrats on the release blah blah blah

when i become president i'm banning the use of weird ASMR in ads and commercials

what's the conversion rate between "buttload" and "shit-ton"

dunno if the Tron: Ares movie will be any good at all but hey the soundtrack is a banger

Was gonna try some different AI coding agents but naturally want to check reviews first. Lot of them have 1 star recent reviews because even paid users use up their credits quickly and have to code like a normie

always funny to see the same two posts right after another "why is the OSS ecosystem in MS-land so much smaller than other platforms" "we DEMAND that MS build an eventing framework over OSS alternatives"

closer..?

i never ever ever ever want to have "Play sound for notifications" enabled for any app on any device i own ever, until the end of time. feels like this could be a @dasharez0ne.bsky.social tshirt

hmmmmm

going back and forth for a few days, it is *crazy* how much faster Rider on a Mac is than Visual Studio on Windows

So what’s your Meat Cute

holy hell the 1password extension on safari is terrible. almost never works properly

"I have no memory of this place"

every time I see arguments of "MAUI is dead" or Uno vs Flutter vs RN vs whatever I'm just so very, very happy I'm not a mobile dev

all this Kubernetes and terraform mucking about, gonna need to take a mental health day

ugh GitHub actions is so terrible for release management

I've only seen this Mr. Beast dude a few times in random commercials or that football halftime thing but holy hell he has dead eyes

done broke'd docker it seems

Big milestone, Lucky Penny Software (my company behind AutoMapper and MediatR) hit 100 customers today 🥳 Fantastic to see such a great response from the community!

I looked at this for AutoMapper/MediatR but ultimately decided against it, mainly because I wanted to pick the safest, most proven option. Not to say this wouldn't be successful, I just didn't want to risk it

TIL that xUnit v3 is an *entirely different* NuGet package. that explains why it never showed up in package upgrades xunit.net/docs/getting...

now that's a name I havent heard in a long time. a long time.

how about you mind your own goddam business instead

One month into this new adventure of commercial OSS and one's thing's for certain - seems I've regained a healthy sponsorship level. Actually have time now to answer issues, fix bugs, work on features, write docs. Sustainable OSS in a biz setting requires sponsorship, a tale as old as time.

FIRST TRY

why yes, I do use Aspiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiire

oh god I was reminded today that at one point in my life I had to learn Vector Calculus *shudder*

can't wait to see it released!!! www.visualstudio2026.com

my first attempt at building the new product sites (LuckyPennySoftware.com etc) was Blazor, but I ripped it all out for just alpine.js because it was a lot simpler that way

Recently caught up with @jimmybogard.com and asked him about other possible models he considered for funding development on his projects. Check it out here: #dotnet youtu.be/Dzzrime2DFg

Don’t need to look it’s definitely mine

"Unable to load one or more of the requested types. Retrieve the LoaderExceptions property for more information." UH OH

probably should donate my CLR via C# book but how else will I explain to my children exactly how the GAC works

me: "if your company uses this popular OSS package, please ask them to sponsor" reddit:

who the hell is gordon and why is he all up in my container business

can't not hear Brad Pitt from Snatch

Today is pork belly and beef burnt ends day for all who celebrate

"I want a modern solution to this data problem" "here's Postgres" "no I said a MODERN solution" "ah so fewer guarantees, here's mongo"

To be honest, I haven’t trusted Stephen Colbert ever since he conveniently abandoned all his right wing views as soon as he got hired to host a network talk show

I tried on formal work attire but it didn't fit. Guess I'm just not suited for it

wow these AI marketing emails are getting surprisingly accurate!

highly recommend NOT consuming expired hummus. highly.

ugh OAuth. right behind DNS on the list of reasons why something is broken

found a critical bug in the recent release of AutoMapper, in that it actually didn't work in .NET 4.x applications (but did on Parallels?). released a 15.0.1 version that supersedes it. release notes: github.com/LuckyPennySo... upgrade guide: docs.automapper.io/en/latest/15...

with the launch I forgot to unmute all AutoMapper/MediatR github notifications. now I gotta actually respond ha. (yes they were both muted for YEARS)

want to offer something to the folks that have sponsored me with GitHub Sponsors but ooof GitHub does not make it easy. I get a CSV of transactions but only a fraction provided contact info

since it's been a big part of my life for like 9 months now, would love to do a talk on launching the commercial versions of MediatR/AutoMapper, in line with "all my talks are experience talks" but might be interesting to like 3 people, minus the folks with pitchforks and torches

Shared some thoughts on AutoMapper and MediatR roadmaps: www.jimmybogard.com/automapper-a... Gotta say, it is nice to be able to invest time in these projects after a 5+ year drought

ohhhhhh really racking up the sales!!
