@RMogyorosy Landwirtschaft, Klima und Umwelt in einem (und noch dazu bei der ÖVP) bedeutet, dass Klima und Umwelt ignoriert werden.

@kzu AFAIK you have to pay extra when you want to use it offshore.

“Bohemian Trumpsody”

EPIC!

@shanselman They do that to claim that Apple also sells cheap computers. I used the smallest version as iOS build host to build Xamarin.Forms/MAUI projects and it was slow af.
But a bigger SSD or RAM costs a fortune. And you cannot upgrade it yourself after you bought it.

@terrajobst That was a great series!

How about a follow up about Roslyn?

How it all works. Where the components are which you explained in your compiler series. How dotnet and VS communicate with it…

It is amazing that XAML has become (or has remained) the Window standard for UI declaration. It's the HTML for high-fidelity desktop apps, including UWP, WPF, WinUI, Maui, even Uno. As a former XAML evangelist for nearly 8 years, I can confirm the pure programming pleasure; it is both innovative & comprehensive & freaking clever. People who don't like it just don't know it well enough. Godspeed #XAML

Do you have to render emojis, font ligatures, powerline glyphs in #SkiaSharp? I wrote a blog post about it on https://t.co/ZLsZsPudc7

Also covers font fallback, unicode grapheme clusters, #HarfBuzz, performance, ...

[Michael Rumpler @MRumpler]

As a followup I now explained how to tune DrawShapedText from #SkiaSharp #HarfBuzz

Was meint der @ORFsport mit einem Ergebnis von -4, -7, 4, -6? Das schreiben sie beim Tischtennis und ich glaube Volleyball auch so. Niemand, der #Squash spielt hat jemals ein Ergebnis so angegeben. Das macht nur der ORF. https://t.co/JGLsukqzCB

@davidfowl It’s really nice! I backported to .Net 8: https://t.co/XshZDgtrnR

@jfversluis That’s a big advantage of having multiple platforms in a single project. You cannot do partial classes over multiple platforms in Avalonia.

There's a huge abstraction fetish in #dotnet I've found.

In a system I worked on in the not too distant past, I estimated I could remove 60-70% of the code AND the system would do the exact same thing. Full of abstractions, indirection, pass through layers, 'just in case' design approaches etc. It was similar to so many projects I've inherited (and sometimes wrote 🤦🏻‍♂️) in the past.

Devs literally use their organizations apps as their pattern playgrounds. Spending someone else's money is easy, but if devs were spending their own money, they might ask themselves is this abstraction really needed?
