Today is yet another bad day for the technology and gaming industries. My thoughts and prayers for all those impacted by layoffs.
Let's talk about options! Two great options: 1. The options pattern in .NET. Type safety, separation of concerns, and an extension library makes life easier. 2. The options to read about it! I'm blogging on my own .com, the EDJE blog, Medium, and devto! victorfrye.com/blog/posts/d...

Apparently PowerPoint makes for a good blog banner image generator. I'm really happy with how this turned out: Spoilers: I'm starting with writing about Aspire!
Wrote my first blog post today. Unpublished as I want to edit it and get some feedback. Also started rewriting some conf abstracts for final wave of CFPs this year. Contentful weekend so far.

Okay, that DOOM controller is sexy. I may not be able to resist...
I have some big tech content creation goals and increasing community involvement ... But I'm also going to keep playing video games too.

Nintendo Switch 2 marked unsafe from tariffs
Today was the monday-est of Mondays. Docker and WSL issues, rogue processes causing issues, maintenance guys... And worst of all, US taxes 🤢
Turns out running in warm rain, feels great. Running when a tree rips out of the ground from the wind? A little scary.
