🚀 Oh, the existential crisis of a developer—stuck in the Stone Age of C# 14 while the world marches on, and apparently, #JavaScript is the new gatekeeper of enlightenment. 🍪 Because nothing says "cutting-edge programming" like desperately trying to enable cookies. 🙄

I Am Behind on C# 14 Features, and I Can’t Prove It But Does It Matter?

I saw the release notes. I bookmarked the articles. I even watched the talk. But my production code still looks suspiciously like C# 12.

Found that I'm blind to code lines that don't seem off at first but are blatantly the wrong thing (like an event being connected to the wrong object). Had an issue where a ListBox in a custom-built autocomplete control was not firing an event that it should, was wondering why. A cursory glance never showed anything blatantly wrong. Breakpointing would've made me skirt past it, too.

I asked Claude about it and it turned out its event was connected to the TextBox. 🫠

Is that like, an ADHD thing? Do other ADHD people have that issue?

Those params arrays are quietly feeding the GC. This drop shows how C# 13 params ReadOnlySpan makes hot-path helpers zero alloc, plus practical takes on IAsyncEnumerable streaming, long jobs, and faster APIs.

Live for a #VR dev stream. LIVnyan-OnAirTap integration for VR VTubing. Today we're going to look at tracking bone positions and using that to adjust the foreground clip plane in realtime. I'll explain that on stream :3

Just blogged: Follow-up to my 2021 console stack post: templates scaffold well, but shared glue code drifts when you maintain many CLI tools.

Now I use Devlead.Console.Template plus the Devlead.Console source package. Scaffold once, update bootstrap via NuGet. Partial Program hooks for your commands and DI.
