Using CancellationTokenSource.CancelAfter with a TimeProvider is not obvious and potentially inefficient depending on how you do it.
I often see people mention JIT and GC as performance differentiators comparing C++ and C#, but rarely see mention of object allocation overhead and locality of reference (reference types) or branch target prediction (interfaces/DI).
#Dune2 was an absolute masterpiece.
If you like movies, it felt like the way parents/grandparents describe seeing Star Wars.
If you like the book, not only does it live up but it ADDS to it in ways that will probably satisfy you.
Go see it.
Hard agree with this.
.NET docs (most of MSDN really... maybe due to technical writers?) were once among the best.
Now ASP has tons of undocumented APIs, it's hard to find docs for old patterns, you need to parse outdated blogs, Twitter MVP bs, etc...

When you're young and figuring things out, it's common to quickly assume bugs exist in a platform/library when you can't find them in your code. It's usually in your code.
When you're old and find an actual bug you work extra hard to make sure you aren't fooling yourself 😂

The judgement when you start typing a comment and Github Copilot's suggestion begins "this is a hack to..."
Finally a good sequel to Prototype.
In Marvel's Spider-Man 2, Peter Parker has some new tricks. Did you spot some of his new abilities?

Props to @AzureCosmosDB for having an well made HTTP API. Its designers having fluency in the HTTP standard is obvious.
It takes me aback when I hear someone joke about 9/11. Usually from someone who only read about it in history class.
I'm conflicted and trying to decide if this is a perhaps cringy but ultimately healthy example of time healing a country's wounds.
I vividly remember the creak of the stairs beneath my feet and the worn wood grain of the banister under my hand as I walked downstairs to see people jumping from the smoking towers on TV that day.
The anniversary is a solumn day for me.
