Listened to a marketing professional explain how they automated nearly all of their weekly social media campaign with ChatGPT and Canva.
Upgraded to Visual Studio v17.4.5 today. It also updated .NET MAUI, revealing a bug with error msg when you run it:
DEP1700: The recipe file "C:\...\ProjName.appxrecipe" does not exist.
Fixed it via config, shown in the image, switching config to the platform I was building on.
Visual Studio Intellicode (AI-assisted code completion) is insane in unit tests - predicting the right mocks, which method to run, and even asserts. Not 100%, but still very impressive.

Check out Google Trends, Tiobe, Stack Overflow, and Github to see who's talking about and using C#. Researching for my most recent book indicated that millions of developers around the globe use C# - seems like a lot of love.
p.s. I'm fond of JavaScript and other languages too.

Besides Google+, as mentioned in replies, they've also tried other social apps, like Wave and Buzz. Despite their greatest efforts, nothing ever took hold.

ebook, Learn Azure in a Month of Lunches, for FREE. In addition to covering the basics, there's a whole chapter on Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence:
I talk about C# most of the time, but fact is I regularly use different languages/platforms. Recently, I've been on a JavaScript (TypeScript) project with ReactJS on WSL with VS Code. It's nice because living in a polyglot/multi-platform world opens new learning and perspectives.
The paradigm shift to quantum computing still makes me curious. e.g. a bit is always the same value and I'm sure of it. However, a qubit has superpositions with state that's typically hard to read. So, I had a session with
#ChatGPT
to see if I could find clarity.
A thread 🧵...

I've seen this too. While there might be more to do in analyzers/docs/other, I found that code reviews help too. Either I use a feature and wait for someone to be curious, or do a fyi when reviewing their code.
TIL how assembly language instructions map to the circuitry of a CPU. I've programmed with multiple assembly languages and have an intuition for the relationship to the metal, but this is a new level of understanding.

Joined Twitter because my LINQ Programming book had a chapter on how to build a provider - and so LINQ to Twitter became a thing.

One of the implications of copy/pasting code is the false sense that an app works when it only helps solve the immediate problem. Especially for complex code, unless unit tested and fully understood, it could cause problems later through side effects or unanticipated behavior.
Whether you're unsure of yourself, feeling imposter syndrome, or just having a less-than-stellar day; remember that some of the smartest people in the world occasionally make mistakes and that's okay.
Been writing JavaScript and ended up doing this in C#:
if (someCondition) { // begin curly on the same line
// some code
}
smh...stepping away from the computer.
Taking notes and writing about it. It's a bit experimental, working with the data and language I love; the computer might learn more than I do today. What is the subject?
ChatGPT (and similar) changes content creation. The opportunity:
- First movers before a new tech is documented
- Those who pull two or more concepts together for new insights
- Undocumented tips and tricks
- What else?
Anything based on existing documentation will be obsolete.
Seems like in a lot of cases these days, defaulting to designing async library interfaces is preferrable to synchronous. Trying to call async from synchronous is fraught.
We're planning to relaunch verification in 2021, but first we want to hear from you.
