Visual Studio 2022 is frustrating me. Not only does debugging sometimes take way too long, but, for me, the real problem is that the editor is trying to do too much to help me. I just want to be able to type code.
I'm back at my rants. In this sixth episode, I admit that I've been a bit hypocritical about my own dislike of some well known technologies.
After discussing language on Twitter, it got me thinking about my own role in programming language elitism.
We recorded this at KCDC 2021. It's a project I'm contributing to and I really like what it's trying to do.
Over the years, I've talked to many a software developer.

The problem here is that people think there is one way to have a career - my path isn't necessary for everyone.
I have a new episode of my "Coding Shorts" series on YouTube. In this episode, I dig into something a little more esoteric: Bitwise operators. I show how binary math works and how it relates to enumerations (with Flags).
I've started a new video series of short coding tutorials. The goal is to teach lesser-used techniques and they are less than 15 minutes each. I've got the first three up for viewing.
It's been a long time coming! I've worked on this film for the last five years and I'm very happy to announce that it's finally available!
I want to start by thanking everyone who contributed to the Hello World Film Kickstarter. It's been a humbling exercise. I've learned a lot along the way too.
If any of my readers are familiar with my podcast, you'll know I love talking to developers. I want to understand why we do we what we do and how that started in their lives.
I've been using a new trick on my courses as of late that I've been getting some questions about. I figured I'd just blog about it to share the trick.
