It's a shame you weren't patrolling the 401 between Newcastle and Port Hope this morning, @OPP_HSD. Lots of stunting idiots in the eastbound lanes today. In particular you might want to keep your eyes peeled for a black Audi, with an Ontario plate starting CHXD or CXHD...

I need to acquire a functional 3.5" floppy disk drive that is _not_ a slimline unit and does not have a built-in FDC.

@GooglePayDevs is there a reason why the "Get started" button on the Generic Private Pass overview page just goes to a 404?

@goots I'm ready for one, at least

Does anyone know if Azure as an identity provider can support providing identities that _aren't_ in AAD? Or would someone have to just set up their own IdP if they need to connect different identity sources?

@YRP I don't know what one of your SUVs was doing in Port Hope on the 401 this morning (about 15 mins ago) but I'm pretty sure that _not_ signalling before passing me wasn't supposed to be part of it

Big Social, Big Tech, these are not your friends. Not @Twitter, not @Facebook, not @Apple or @Microsoft or @Google. It's time to break free from their control over your discourse and your lives.

Since the last update, every single time I start up Visual Studio @Code, I get a warning message box about license conditions for the .NET decompiler in the C# extension. I keep accepting the terms, so why does it showing up to me? How can I shut it up?

Your software is full of "junk DNA" that should be removed -- for performance, for security, and for the mental health of the people developing it.

Clean Code is Lean Code.

I saw a great movie about databases today -- I can't wait for the SQL.

"Agile" is now 20 years old.

"Devops" is 10.

The next wave has already started somewhere.

NuGet is mature technology at this point. So why is it that @Telerik can't help but keep screwing up their NuGet packages all the time?

How do you make a function do one thing, do it well, do it only? You extract from it any sub functions within it until you can’t extract any more. And then you name those extracted functions really well.
