I've gone to BlueSky:

@LobsterTrader11 @de1lux @James_M_South tbf he's specifically talking about just {}, the empty case. Which is mostly (but technically not exactly) the same as saying "is not null", which was introduced later.

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@ICooper @nickchapsas I'll see what I can do. I've been building some build blocks today with it and am pretty excited about it.

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@matkoch87 That can happen if for example one runner has zstd and one doesn't, it's not just uniquely identified by the key.

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@davidfowl @thdxr @davidfowl can you pressure Microsoft to change the C# DevKit licence so that it can be used in non-MS products? A permissive LSP is table stakes.
3rd parties exist I know, but we should be able to use the official one.

It's here! The amazing anual preposterously long perf post from Stephen Toub

@davidfowl Love this. Random unrelated feature request - can we have some sort of trace artifact when using Aspire in tests, so we can pull down a file from CI and view what happened in a local dashboard?

Anyone out there using Artifactory with NuGet, please upvote this issue so that we can all have sane restore speeds:

.NET 9 is here, and so is C# 13!

Together with @stuartblang, we will explore the sweet syntax of #CSharp 13 and what's new in #dotnet 9.

@dustinmoris @nickchapsas Thanks @dustinmoris, I'd be happy to join the stream. I'm not using F# as much these days, so would suspect there are better candidates. I'd also love to see the two of you on stream, I think it would be great to watch.

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@dustinmoris @dzoukr I started with PHP, and then went to C# and found that _a lot_ more productive, but that's because WebForms allowed me to build things 5x faster (and then I grew to hate it 😅).

I think for non-progranmers Python is highly productive and approachable, but I get it's subjective.

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@DamianEdwards @Tashkant From what I gather it will be baked into the OS, so we won't need dotnet support (or the CoW packages) but need Win11 24H2. File.Copy should be near instant on ReFS then.

Massive news folks, JetBrain Rider is now free for non-commercial use!

Seeking help with the upcoming LINQPad macOS release from someone with x-platform C++ skills that's willing to volunteer a day or two before the end of this year on a small project in exchange for a free LINQPad Enterprise license + good karma :)

@martin_costello 🍏?

@dustinmoris @mohdjawadi Now if you are shipping a binary then that's a different discussion, and I could see the 3 year cycle being an interesting discussion. But the for platforms, I go for the STS releases, cause it's really no problem at all (even for hundreds of apps)

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@dustinmoris @mohdjawadi Runtime updates and deployments should be happening frequently to avoid security vulnerabilities, but they're not.

If you maintain a platform, you should embrace frequent releases. Trying to minimize this is not healthy.

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@dustinmoris The idea that you can just leave an app untouched for months/years is not a healthy one, I'm sure there are enterprises where that's common practice, but the answer isn't "do it less"

[Stuart Lang @stuartblang]

@dustinmoris We have over 400 dotnet services, we let teams choose if they prefer LTS or STS, and provide automation for the upgrades. It's often a case of reviewing and merging a PR.
