For all the vibe coding people out there: "It works" is not a sufficient test. Sorry.

@wdwmagic Given that you are my "go to" Disney news site, the moment I hear of an Android app being released, it will be an immediate download. I'd even be more than happy to pay a subscription fee to support development. Either way, keep up the good work! 😊

21 years ago today, the last film in the greatest trilogy ever made was released.
Lord of the Rings: Return of the King

We will never see the likes of it again.

The lesson to take away from the Luigi Magione case is that the anti-gun left is actually pro gun violence so long as it’s directed at their enemies

For Christmas, I bought my wife new beads for her abacus.

It's the little things that count.

What is the simplest way to improve 𝗔𝗦𝗣 .𝗡𝗘𝗧 𝗖𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗰𝗲?

Caching can significantly improve the performance and scalability of your application.

You can introduce a memory cache for frequently requested data.

It reduces the work required to generate content.

But what type of data should you cache?

Caching works best with data that changes infrequently and is expensive to generate.

Think of any heavy query you have running on the database.

ASP .NET Core supports several different caches.

The simplest cache is based on the IMemoryCache.
But it only makes sense if you have a single web server.

IMemoryCache represents a cache stored in the memory of the web server.

Your only limit is the available RAM on the server. And memory is cheap.

Unfortunately, caching introduces another set of problems:

- Stale cache data
- Cache invalidation
- How/what to cache

More challenges for you to solve... Great!

Would you consider using an in-memory cache for your application?

P.S. REPOST - teach your network how to use caching in ASP .NET Core. ♻️
