Back when we were working on VS2010, @jlzander (then the VS GM) would come to a daily standup and talk about issues he was facing in the latest nightly builds. Really made a mark on me.

On either of these versions? Check out aka.ms/dotnet-upgrade-assist… for some analysis and help.
Today, .NET 7 goes out of support. .NET 6 LTS goes out of support in November 2024 (this year). If you haven't already, you should be moving to .NET 8 to ensure you still receive security & quality fixes. More details at dotnet.microsoft.com/platfor… #dotnet #aspnetcore

Does anyone have recommendations for NACS chargers other than Tesla Wall Connector? Our WC has been nothing but trouble. It refuses to charge both our cars most of the time, support has been terrible, etc. Would rather avoid giving that company more of my money at this point.

Anyone use @namecheap with website redirects? Trying to get pilchie-dot-dev and pilchie-dot-net to redirect to pilchie.com, but they don't seem to work. Configured the same, but .net says no GH pages there, and .dev doesn't respond?

Thinking about getting my first ever iPad. Currently planning iPad Air, 256GB, with 5G. Question is Magic Keyboard vs Smart Keyboard Folio?

With iPad OS 17, does the health app work as a pedometer? My elderly father is trying to consolidate on just an iPad mini, instead of an iPhone and a 10” iPad, but really values tracking his steps. Anyone running the beta know?
