Big improvements to the performance of developing C# file-based incoming. Subsequent builds/runs will cache MSBuild outputs & directly invoke the C# compiler if inputs don't change.

Reuse CSC arguments in file-based app runs by jjonescz · Pull Request #50635 · dotnet/sdk
Part of #48011. This optimization saves CSC arguments when MSBuild runs and then reuses them in subsequent runs so dotnet run file.cs can skip MSBuild and invoke only the compiler. In my simple exp...

Another STP (Seattle to Portland) bike ride in the books. Did it in two days this year so a bit more relaxing. 4th time doing this ride and still amazed at how gorgeous the landscape is on this route. #stp
`dotnet run file.cs` is coming: Allows running C# source files with no need for an explicit backing project. We call these file-based programs (as opposed to project-based programs). github.com/dotnet/sdk/b...
.NET Lab (lab.razor.fyi) now has Code Actions 🚀 Very useful when you paste some code snippet and want to add missing usings. But it can do much more - all Roslyn code fixes are included.

You can always tell who's worked with me a long time by how they respond to my questions about insane situations: Rookies: Here is why ... and by the way why are you asking that question? Veterans: Here is why and I'm now leaving this chat so you can't tell me why you asked that question.
Building a Debugger is now officially released! It guides you through building a whole native x64 debugger from scratch, dispelling all the magic and teaching you a ton about operating systems as it goes. Even if you don't care about building a debugger, you can read it to your cat.
Trick I’ve been doing lately is getting AI to give me book recommendations. I just feed it all the books I’ve read, tell it why I liked a book and ask for ideas.
As your titles get bigger you need to be conscious about the potential for the things you say to be interpreted differently by the people around you. It is very easy for what used to be off hand comments / musings to start being interpreted as setting direction or defining goals.
Got a customer bug this week that only reproduces when the number of characters generated from razor / cshtml files is an exact multiple of 40K. One of the items in the generated files is the path of the file. Needless to say, that made the bug incredibly challenging to reproduce.
if you know someone who was impacted, call them. Support them, lend them your network, your references, your referrals, and your time. This is a day with a lot of tears.
