People like to piss on Windows search but there's no search in the world as broken as the settings search in IOS. It simply does not work.

It's disapointing to see individuals I respect lower themselves to appear on video with someone who will happily stick the knife in hard working members of the open source community for clicks.

The speed both @avaloniaui.net and @platform.uno iterate and improve is incredible. What they are doing is right up there in the hard-to-do category, yet they are both absolutely smashing it. Hard proof that not everything good in #dotnet needs to come from Microsoft. I'm a little jealous.

@benaadams.me I just updated VS which came with the 9.0.200 SDK and now I'm seeing more of the same. It looks like some sort of overload resolution change in MemoryMarshal.Cast interpreting the array as a ReadOnlySpan<byte>

Just got an invalid #dotnet analyzer warning for CA1001 with structs. Started to research. Turned out I raised an issue 2 1/2 years ago! github.com/dotnet/rosly...

I don't get the point of #dotnet runtime team releasing unfinished types like the Regex ValueMatch type which is missing group capturing. It's been 3 years since this issue was opened. github.com/dotnet/runti...

Get the fuck outta here MsBuild. error CS0029: Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.ReadOnlySpan<byte>' to 'System.Span<byte>' The code in the image is correct and works but for some reason MSBuild with BenchmarkDotnet will not build it with #dotnet 8

I don't care how popular your YouTube channel is, but when you have an opinion about every library, software, or product, and at the same time dedicate yourself professionally to just creating YouTube videos and driving views, your opinion is meaningless. It's just sad people listen to you.

WEBP isn't my favorite format in the world but @github.com should probably support uploading it to issues and discussions. It's a pain sticking them in zip files.
