Thank you to everyone who came out to the .NET User Group meetup last week! We met in-person at @Geekdom as part of San Antonio Startup + Tech Week and it was a great turnout. Jon Roberts gave a great presentation and we did a giveaway of one of our @PacktPub books!

I actually still have the controller (which was free!) which I recently learned is a fantastic bluetooth controller in general!

Now this is great! I love C# and I love Astro!

Blogged: How to use Azure models in GitHub Copilot CLI and VS Code I've been successfully playing around with using @Azure Foundry models with @GitHubCopilot BYOK mode lately (including a CLI status line script showing Azure spend), so thought I'd share! daninacan.com/how-to-use-azu…

I'll be giving a 30-45-minute presentation this Wednesday on how I use @GitHubCopilot after coaching teams on it for a little over a year. It'll be both some specific technical features and general patterns of how I like to use it. Come check it out! leantechniques.com/events/gi…

I'm both happy and thankful to go another year as a Microsoft MVP! I love being in .NET land, anyway, so contributing to the program with blog posts, talks, and local events is something I enjoy doing and plan to keep doing! #mvpbuzz

Thank you @PacktPub for sending the San Antonio/Austin .NET UG some complimentary books for us to giveaway! We also received some discount codes. These kinds of things seem small, but they really do help out local groups, so I really appreciate getting sponsorships like this.
