.NET development on Apple Silicon
I bought a MacStudio, I've been a long-time Windows user, and I'm a .NET developer. What could go wrong? Let's find out how my experience goes in this live-blogging session.
We need insights, not data
Gauges and graphs attract software engineers like honey for bees. We spend hours implementing distributed logging solutions or monitoring systems, and still we have a hard time understanding what's going on.
They'll probably make it anyway: bulk editing Garmin data
Users have needs. They want to get things done when using software. If what they have is not satisfactory, they'll get creative.
