Recently, I started learning C development and the various build tools and IDEs available for that. I'm not sure which I find more annoying: trying to learn vim bindings, or trying to ignore the fake squigglies in VS Code.
FluentAssertions is switching to a paid license in v8. I just got my team using it, and change does not come easy to us. I get that developers need to support themselves, but $130/dev/year is really steep. I don't want to rewrite all of my tests, but I can't justify that cost.
Just learned some great advice and resources for writing better pull request reviews (as both author and reviewer) @VSLive. The following rules help reviewers focus and stay objective, but are they too structured for a human team?

At multiple companies, with multiple CI/CD products, I've hit the 260 character path limit imposed by Windows. Each time, it has taken me multiple days to diagnose and fix. Why do I have to relearn this lesson every year?
Why is shopping for a car so painful? Why can't i easily compare features and prices? Even searching multiple models at the same dealership is tough because the salesmen push you to buy the first car you touch. They become downright hostile if you mention another brand. – at Lehi, UT

Friendly reminder that console logging doesn't work inside a Windows GUI application. This is because GUI apps don't have a console. It may seem obvious, but this led me in a wild goose chase for a few hours. Even when launched from a terminal, Console.WriteLine does not work.
In EQ2, we usually share information and writeups through a public wiki. This month, we distributed the info as RTF and XLS documents. Half my friends couldn't find them, and the other half couldn't open them. There's probably a lesson about consistent UX here.
I always hated UML diagrams in college. I could write the code much faster than I could map it out in the verbose diagramming language. Today, I asked a member of my team to deliver a UML diagram because it was the easiest was to capture the relationships between data types.
While researching this, my coworker made a fun puzzle. Imagine that a passenger of the Titanic listed their birthdate as 2/29/00. How old was this passenger when the ship sank?
Does anyone have any tips for dealing with date strings with only 2 year-digits? Does the year "35" refer to 2035 or 1935?
And yes, I know the answer is "don't do that", but I'm working with a third-party who does, and I need to understand what they send me.
