Hey friends! 🚀

I'm crafting something special: my .NET 8 Web Dev Jump-Start Course. I'm really excited about diving into .NET 8 with you all.

If you're as eager as I am, join the waiting list and you'll get free access when it's ready: https://t.co/h8bNG2E4gh

Your support means everything! ❤️

Fallen Nights is in Steam Next Fest, October 19–26! 🎮

Collect scrap. Build defenses. Survive the night. Repair the boat and escape.

Try my free demo and tell me how your run went. If you enjoy it, a wishlist helps!

Before you close your project for the day, write down the next small thing to check.

"Try Save with no network" is easier to pick up tomorrow than "fix the form."

If AI writes the code, what is left for .NET developers?

I made a video on that question. I would be interested to hear which part of your work has changed most.

Looking for a small survival game to try?

Fallen Nights has a free Steam demo. Gather supplies, build defenses, and work toward your escape.

Tell me where you got stuck:

Before accepting an AI change, ask it to explain one part you do not understand.

Then check that explanation against the code.

You do not need to pretend a change is clear just because it compiles.

Building a .NET or Blazor app with AI?

I teach practical app development at .NET Web Academy. Explore the courses and find a next step that fits your project:

A useful bug report can be three sentences.

What were you trying to do?
What did you expect?
What happened?

For a game, add the moment or place where it happened. That gives the developer somewhere to start.

[Patrick God @_PatrickGod]

I made a short called "The simpler way to build software."

Watch it with one question in mind: what could you make simpler in your current project?

Want a small .NET project to explore this weekend?

Here is my MCP server walkthrough with Claude Code:

A setting looks saved until you reload.

Trace one value from the screen to the server and storage. Then read it back.

Ask AI to show you that path. It is easier to review than a pile of changes at once.

Want to build .NET and Blazor apps with AI?

In .NET Web Academy, I teach the work around the code too: define the change, keep useful boundaries, and check the result.

More detail can make a game harder to read.

I ran into that with Fallen Nights. Here is the short example:
https://t.co/hAUGwNWcfy

[Patrick God @_PatrickGod]

AI helped me return to a game project that had stopped moving.

The useful part was coming back to something I could play and review.

I still had to decide what worked, what was confusing, and what to remove.

Read an error message as someone who has never seen your code.

Do they know what to do next?

Keep private details in your logs. Give the person a useful step on the screen.

Pick one feature you built this week.

Try it with no data, an invalid value, and a failed request.

You may find a useful fix before you add the next feature.

Curious about building your own MCP server in .NET?

Here is my walkthrough with Claude Code. Start with a small example you can try in your own project.

https://t.co/c16DTiBs04

[Patrick God @_PatrickGod]

A save fails. The form clears. Now the user has two problems.

When you test a failed request, check whether the person can retry without typing everything again.

[Patrick God @_PatrickGod]

If you try the Fallen Nights demo, tell me about one moment.

Where did you get stuck? What made you want another run?

That gives me something concrete to look at.

Free shipping for orders of 50 or more?

Test 49, 50, and 51.

The value right on the boundary can catch a mistake that a happy path test misses. Ask AI which edge cases match the rule you actually want.

Before you build a revenue chart, define the number.

Which dates? Before or after refunds? Which currency?

A nice chart cannot fix a number that means different things to different people.
