The old Facebook fake of being able to opt out of them using your likeness and data is finally becoming true. Both LinkedIn and twitch, and probably more, are now training on your info and content. Both are automatically on. But you can opt out in settings.

Cannot open file. File names must not exceed 259 characters, including full path. This will be a problem. I can fix it for me, but what about people with deep paths to the project? I thought it was fixed already because of npm....

What I've learned from the Build 2026 Keynote: Old McMicrosoft had a speech. AI AI O. My brain is dying.

After being delayed for 5 hours from expected landing to actual, is this OK @icelandair? 6 WEEKS before you look at a claim. #mvpsummit #mvpbuzz

What does one do when they wake up early at the hotel, on their way to #mvpsummit? They code, obviously!

Time to build a desktop app - it's been a while. Figured I'd have a look at something new, and oh my lord is the Uno platforms UI generator insanely good! I hate XAML with a passion, and this thing means I barely need to touch the stuff. <3

Did you know that if you want to deserialize something that maps to an interface but ALSO a concrete type, you need to register that concrete type in the resolver? I knew. I also forgot. 🤦

Tons of meetings, tons of gadgets, and even some serious content, not to mention walking almost 40km over 3 days, it's time to say bye to #IFA for this time. I'll be sleeping for the next 3 days or so.

Repeat after me: Hiding your Knowledgebase or FAQ behind a LLM is not adding AI to your service. It's just destroying your UX. Please stop.

1/3 into the month, even with spending 2 full days experimenting with agent based coding using the #Claude 4 model, I've used 4% of my #Github #Copilot tokens. I'm not sure how people manage to run out. :S

Do you use the Async suffix on your methods? In my opinion, if everything is async, then everything is async and it's not needed. The only exception is if there's both an async and sync version available.

Would you say that a technical requirement of defining your #Blazor parameters in the code-behind to get some pretty nice quality of life improvements is worth it? The rest of your code can go inline in the .razor file of course.

Well I guess I should start posting here then. :) Working on a source gen for Blazor right now, more info forthcoming.

The room was full and some people didn't get in. Awesome that people are interested in what I had to say. ❤️ Thank you everyone who attended my session at #swetugg!
