My new job has required I use Google's Firebase, and in particular Firestore. I've been surprised by the memory consumption of the official emulator, and wondered if I could hack together in .NET that meeds our needs. I still don't know, but this is the result so far: https://github.com/mikegoatly/FirestoreSharp

I wonder if we will eventually stop and ask, "Who are we doing this for?"
AI can be helpful and cool, but for some of my projects, there's a bonsai gardener feel to it. I code for me, when I want, with intent & precision. I guess some aspects of the trade will be like classic car maintenance🤔

We're doing a #livestream today around a first look at our User Management library here at Duende. Think of it as an alternative to #aspnetcore Identity. It let's you manage users (shocking I know 😅), and their profile, passwords, auth mechanisms, and more.

Just blogged: My NuGet packages hit a quarter-billion downloads. Just a number; I’m not sure it means much, but I turned it into a short note on NuGet, OSS, and the community.

AREXX was written in 1987, 1990 AmigaOS included it by default with AmigaOS 2.0.
It allowed for inter process communication, applications could expose their internals for automation, essentially MCP four decades ago...

Nice, gone full OIDC for NuGet Gallery, all API keys deleted 👍 Took a while for over fifty packages.
