Cool stuff, my order feels real secure now.

Just published v0.3.1 of my rimraf #dotnet tool. This updates all the dependencies, builds & tests on more environments including Ubuntu & Windows ARM, and fixes a null reference exception. It's also the last .net 8 release before finally moving to .net 9.

I came across this on JLCPCB's site earlier today. The In Production text gives the popup on hover.

Is it a bug or a feature?

HTML source showing the input has a max length of 25 characters

It turns out the issue is the password can't be more than 25 characters long. But why tell the user that? That'd make things easier.

Reset password form with instructions saying new passwords need to be a minimum of 8 characters long, with a 64 character password giving an error saying "New Password should be at least 8 characters".

On today's episode of password inputs that never work right.

Alert that says: A toolbar is already hidden on this side of your screen. You can have only one auto-hide toolbar per side.

Every time my monitors turn on I get this alert and have to:

1. Right click the task bar
2. Go to Taskbar Settings
3. Expand Taskbar Behaviors
4. Toggle Show on all Displays
5. Finally turn Auto-hide Taskbar back on

Why is such a simple thing so damn complicated?!

Step 4 is because the taskbar doesn't always show up on every display. It's visible on the main one, but hidden on one or two of the others.

If I just toggle auto-hide taskbar I get a different error. So this step ensures I can turn it back on without seeing another error.

I have to delete the bin & obj folders regularly, especially when switching branches a lot, because things just stop building correctly 🤷

Adding file icons to Expressive Code frames Adding and customizing file icons for your Expressive Code frames

I've been working on a new website built with @astro.build & @tailwindcss.com and after far too long the first post is now up!

Along the way I built a couple Expressive Code plugins. One of them adds file icons to code blocks which is what this post is about.

It'd be nice if the old name redirected to the new one so old links still worked until they could be updated.

I won't lie, they got me a little curious with this one.

There's no equivalent of `npm install lib1 lib2 @types/lib1` to install multiple packages at the same time and handle picking the right versions of everything. This also leads into package lock territory, which doesn't behave as I expected it to either.

Screenshot of the Dashboard Entry Point setting for GitHub Copilot

Just noticed there's a setting to hide copilot chat on your #github dashboard 🎉

It's at github.com/settings/cop... and is called 'Dashboard entry point'.

#NuGet came out in 2010 and we still can't install or update multiple packages at the same time with it. By contrast #NPM came out the same year and has supported this for as long as I can remember.

Just one of the many thing I think of when a #dotnet dev tries to make fun of the JS ecosystem.

Basque Cheesecake This light, fluffy, cloudlike cheesecake wants to get cooked at high heat for a burnt, cracked surface that's rich with flavor.

Used this recipe and cooked the blueberries with a bit of water, sugar, lemon juice, and ClearJel (used for pie filling, but cornstarch should work fine too).

First time making or having Basque Cheesecake and it was delicious. Much easier than a typical cheesecake too since there's no crust or water bath to fuss around with.

The :dir() selector is what I'm looking for but with RH and LH options set by the browser/OS.

My mom's left handed and it usually looks awkward and/or unnatural when she uses her phone. I've wondered why there's no setting for this and was curious if it was lack of interest, or no proposals at all?

@una.im has there been a css media query/browser setting proposal for letting the user pick if they prefer a left or right hand UI orientation? Something that's independent of text direction, that way elements can be positioned for easier use with one hand.

I got so tired of seeing copilot everywhere that I just hide it now. I'll never use any of it, it just gets in my way and annoys me.

I care about actions, deploys, release management, and dependabot properly supporting #dotnet. That's what brings value to me every day.

I'm migrating to GitHub issues & projects. Most users aren't devs and don't know the system. It'd be awesome if there were demo orgs/projects showing ways to onboard unfamiliar users, useful issue templates, and project boards to track projects, tasks, and releases across management and development.

This is such a good album

Sometimes I can't re-enable auto-hide because the taskbar is missing from one or more screens and I get the same error. When that happens I have to toggle show on all displays, then I can enable auto-hide again.

@jenmsft.bsky.social I've been getting this since upgrading to Win11 a few years ago, but on 24H2 it happens nearly every time my monitors turn on. Besides disabling auto-hide, is there something I can do to prevent this?

"What was the 1st album you bought with your own money?"

I can't remember which one I got first since they came out a month apart. It was either America's Least Wanted by Ugly Kid Joe or Grave Dancers Union by Soul Asylum . Both were on cassette.

Figma mockup of the front and rear panels

The rear panel for the amp itself was drilled wrong, so a new version of that is on the way, and the text ended up having small lines connecting some of the letters. That seems to be due to the text not being flattened before printing. The more you know I guess.
