This is more like it's Seattle, none of those lovely sunny days that were practically warm!

Episode 2000 of.NET Rocks!! Live recording at Party with Palermo!

I am really struggling to not walk in curves here

Ever sit in a room at a conference and think you're the only one who can't seem to sit still?? I'm such a fidgeter!!

Sigh.... The only thing is worse than paying AU$10.60 for a coffee is paying AU$10.60 &) for a BAD coffee.

Pike Street Coffee, do not recommend!

Now I'm going to spend 2 minutes finding a way to fix "ok" to "on" in that post

I've never thought of myself as "inattentive"... But I've just become acutely aware of how much my attention gets drawn away while I read a book.

A good, engaging book.

Oh what's that crumb on my top?

Let me just post about this observation.

Oh what's that thread ok Bluesky?

🤦‍♀️

First Seattle breakfast and it's a gooood one! Oddfellows Cafe I'm Capitol Hill, delicious coffee and amazing food, highly recommend 👌

Forgot to respond - thanks yep I did use this, and holy shit!! I got through customs in about 5 minutes. The queue for normal entry was looking like 1-2 hours!

I can't believe the time is already almost upon us, next week is the Microsoft MVP Summit, and I'm going! ✈️

If you're going to be there and want to catch up, drop me a message! I'll be travelling alone so up for coffees, meals and drinks throughout to keep my voice box working!

So glad it was a helpful inclusion this year, I hope you enjoyed the day 😊

Ahh shame i didn't run into you! I also would have loved to see your basket weaving!

Thanks for coming across, it was great to catch up!

Tomorrow is DDD Melbourne — and there are only 30 tickets left!! Once they're gone, they're gone — there will be no ticket sales at the conference on the day.

My year in review from ChatGPT, love it!

Through stacks, clouds,
and pipelines you steer,
Each migration a milestone this year. From EF quirks to Svelte's shining dome,
You built order from code and from home -
A craftsman of systems, both sturdy and clear.

Ohhh all the year in review things are starting to annoy me ("no I don't need a year in review of my workout app, fix your bugs instead!)" but I am going looking for this one!!

Finally getting started on our PAX cosplay... Maybe a little late to start, when it's for all four of us, but that's how we roll.

Can you guess the game? Hint: were a squad

Enchantment?? Environment 🤦‍♀️

Sadly I think they are actually engaged with a large part of their fan base, and if they go ahead with this, they will only be supporting those who perpetrate their bad culture even more

And yet, they have now confirmed they are sticking with him. Ridiculous, how are are supposed to believe the AFL actually wants to see any change in their toxic enchantment?!

It beggars belief that the AFL is persisting with the choice of Snoop Dog to provide the entertainment at the Grand Final. Misogynism and homophobia must not be condoned.

Many more reasons to say YES !

Saturday morning status: benchmarking a new function we created this week, which will currently be used in both .NET Framework 4.8.1 and .NET 8 and above.

The perf improvements in ".NET Core" is really mind-blowing 🤯

The sooner we finish our migration project the better!

Oh yeah and you have to tap on the screen to send what you say. I feel like from a quick look around, we've ended up with a subpar experience to what was first released for this feature.

Claude AI app is rolling out the beta of real time voice conversations on android, but the interrupt feature isn't working. Anyone else experiencing this?

Great trick! I've put some of my larger indoor plants into the shower for the same treatment in the past, but never thought to use the bath for all the smaller ones! I just have them all sitting on trays and water them in situ

Yesssss!!

DDD Melbourne tickets are now ON SALE!!
