When men refer to themselves as "alpha males", I hear that in the context of software, where alpha versions are unstable, missing important features, filled with flaws, and not fit for the public. – at Stavanger, Norway

Learning about code generators from @henriksen at #kcdc2025. Interesting talk, and would love to incorporate this at my job.

Can’t wait to return to @kc_dc in August! This conference sets a high bar for community, learning, and hospitality—thanks to truly wonderful organizers and a welcoming crowd.
Looking forward to seeing both familiar and new faces in Kansas City!

Conference speakers don't disappoint. So many waiting until the last day to submit 😄 Who will be the last one to make it, with half an hour left to submit to #CphDevFest?

This was a great success last year, so we just have to di it again! Make my job harder and submit some great talk proposals! We cover the breath of product development, not just programming.
🚀 The countdown is on – 222 days to Hello Stavanger!
We’re getting more excited as we get closer! Even better – our Call for Papers is now open! 🎤✨
This is your chance to take the stage and inspire at Hello Stavanger! 🌍💡

I've often hesitated to join podcasts despite frequently speaking at conferences, possibly due to the format difference. It's time to try something new! I'll be recording with @davidgiard's Technology and Friends podcast this Tuesday. Check it out here: youtube.com/@technologyandfr….
Fredrik @wigsnes did the webpages for @hellostavanger and has taken the extra effort to share some of his work with the community! ❤️ 👏
I published an npm package to fetch JSON data from @SessionizeCom that also includes the correct types. With @nextjs server actions and cache, everything is very easy to work with. 🚀🎉

Best slide of #HelloStavanger! @einarwh categorises things

TIL that in C# you can add the "readonly" modifier to methods on a struct, letting the compiler know that this method does not alter the state of the instance. The compiler may use this information for performance optimizations.

Spoke at my first #Techorama on Tuesday, and I must agree, it is definitely more than a conference, it was an *experience*! Magnificently well done! Loved it and hope to come back!

I had a wonderful chat just now about Open source, OSS licensing and the software ecosystem in general with the GOAT @dylanbeattie!!
Really great conversation based off of his talk at NDC Oslo and it's just great that I got to meet him virtually!

ImageSharp isn’t free so don’t use it.
SQL Server isn’t free so don’t store data.
Azure isn’t free so don’t deploy apps.
Paying for quality tools is how you get quality results. Support @SixLabors by buying a license and let me keep ImageSharp free for those who really need it to be.

Someone, somewhere, changed something, and now ChatGPT doesn't work for me anymore. CORS errors everywhere
Your regular reminder that even if the new GPT model is impressive, it still can't understand and reason about the text you give it, but tries to find answers that look like answers to a similar text.
Trying to test out Azure Dev Box, and I swear to God, between the obscure errors and the checks that just keep in running, with zero explanation, it seems like they just don't want me to use the service at all. I just cannot get a box even created, much less started.
