I've added dynamic cron scheduling to https://t.co/7VlYOFaK2D.BackgroundQueue
It started as a lightweight replacement for HostingEnvironment.QueueBackgroundWorkItem.
Now you can queue background work and schedule jobs at runtime in .NET.

Most people don't know how AI works and think it's magic.
It isn't.

Programming with AI is just quicker copy & paste. If you give it dumb input, your get dumb output. Conversely give it decent prompts it will 10x your efficiency.
Can't believe I didn't know about the Testcontainers NuGet package. The even cooler thing is it just works in CI if you use DevOps or GitHub Actions 🚀
Literally a few lines of code to create a docker container in your tests.

@natemcgrady The number of programmers doubles every five years or so. Thus the number of programmers over 40 is one sixteenth of the current number.
We’re all still here, there just weren’t that many of us to begin with.
@coit2019@mjovanovictech@alexaka1 Everyone has their own opinions, so not saying one is better than the other. I started my library way back in Jan 2015, as there wasn't any alternatives.
I stepped away for a bit last year, but now working on v5 that will benchmark as the fastest RestClient with default settings

I used EF Core’s JSON Columns feature, but there wasn't much docs, so I have written an article called "A detailed look at EF Core’s JSON Columns feature" https://t.co/O6LtPjbnJj which shows how to use JSON Columns, and the best places to use it. Lots of diagrams - see pic below.
@CoderUday I’m. Hi.
I passed 40 about 26 years ago and still write code daily. No career change and solid skills that are up there with the best of them in any generation writing code.
Just starting out with C#, or always wondered when to use a class, struct, or record in C#.
