Hey #Java developers, when I last did #dotnet development in C#, I got repetitive strain injuries, even after using Resharper. That was 10+ years ago.
If you write #java in #intellij in 2025- do you get RSI injuries? (Thumb and wrist pain)
This is one of the reasons why I could never get on board with coding in a text editor like notepad, vi, ed or edlin. Why maximize your RSI pains, no amount of the vibes you get from a text editor are worth the pain.
Periodic reminder, I'm available for hire for #python or #dotnet work in the #govtech or #dctech scene. (NoVA or Remote)

#rxjs created an industry, a massive enterprise in wondering if observables need to be unsubscribed. I think the anti-unsubscription crowd is right in the sense of
- We don't know what is happening in unsubscribe(), maybe nothing
- The computer will be shut down, we will all die, and the universe will be cold and black and so should we really care about collecting the garbage early
- Out-of-memory will force garbage collection organically as the user reboots.
#dotnet has the same thing going on for IDisposable, with objects implementing IDisposable but not actually doing anything in IDisposable. (And if you didn't call IDisposable, the DB server would crash, which I guess is a natural way to handle closing all those handing connections without writing boilerplate code)

Because I've spent most of my career isolated from IIS (only the Ops team gets that!) my main emotions towards #IIS - hate, annoyance
#VisualStudio & #dotnet - I really like them. dotnet on anything but IIS sounds wonderful.
Good job IIS team!
Cassini? 100 lines of code to show how much MS cares
webdev.webserver.exe? The best MS can do, it goes down hill from here
IISExpress? Oh my god, nginx & apache are friendlier than this hostile cluster f*k
The worst thing anyone can do is take a dependency on IIS- as soon as you do that you are f*ked because the Ops team doesn't know how to cope with that.
#csharp #iis #dotnet
If an App pool is shared by two sites, & site 1 wants assembly v 1.2 and site 2 wants assembly 1.3, will they co-exist or will it be a race to load & version conflict? This is a newish .net 4.5, owin, etc & might have fancy dependency injection going on.
#dotnet I like this State Machine lib: https://github.com/dotnet-state-machine/stateless
Not too few, nor many features.
Does graphs & validates transitions.
