I'm feeling like I need to write a mastodon clone (or something like it) in ASP.NET Core and self-host it.

Wrote a little scraping code to generate a list of songs I've transcribed and shared on Ultimate Guitar. https://gusperez.com/music/
@mrjking Thanks! Good to hear it's been useful for you!

@TheRandomCrafter83 Hi, Carl. At least for my team and others I work with, we almost always add something along the lines of "or equivalent experience" to the degree requirements. I wouldn't consider it a dealbreaker at all.

That said, I get that doesn't match your experience. Keep your head up though, and don't give up. Find an open-source project you're passionate about and start contributing to it. Coding with others leads to lots of learning and experience. Might lead to opportunities too.

@nathan Hi Nate! I think it was a Steve Ramsey YouTube video that got me interested. Ended up being a fun thing to learn/do that got me to spend less time staring at a screen. :)
Daughter came to me with her laptop saying printing doesn't work. That led me to discover several things not working on our network, but all curiously somewhat available. Not a fan of the seemingly random home network problems that seem to happen on a six-month-ish cadence.
@MarkWT I'd say it's usually been a feeling of regret where I wanted to go back to something it had shown already but struggled to get it back easily. Will be more observant going forward now that it's more top of mind for me.

@MarkWT That's exactly the kind of thing I was looking for. I've been doing the "back up" routine but for sure ran into a few cases where it was a bit of a journey.

On this machine, I'm using 17.5 P1. Would that already include most of the work you were referring to or should I get IntPreview on this box?

@MarkWT Mark! Great to see you here too!

Coincidentally, have a question for you. Is there a way to get #IntelliCode to do its thing *again* when I've done something to move on past what it last suggested?
