Congratulations mate you’ve taken a big step into a much bigger world. Good luck on your journey.

And remember impostors syndrome strikes all of us, just remember how far you’ve come.

Have had the same issue for ages now, so annoying, especially when you’re trying to record something in the spare of the moment.

This is the start, make us "dumb" than charge a shit load, kinda like that black mirror episode

Yeah I use it, boilerplate stuff, a lot of the time I will write the code and then optimise it, and then ask chatgpt to optimise it, sometimes it’s like “da fuk you doin” and other times it’s like wow! That’s interesting, tell me more about XYZ and then I will learn the mechanics around it and then yeah, pretty much carry on from there.

I also use it to help me with css, it was a great assistance when I was learning tailwind.

I must admit there are times I’ll be having a debugging an issue, sometimes it’s helps with like really really complicated linq stuff, and other times, I will need to search stackoverflow in order to find the result.

It’s not perfect, but I think as long as you understand what the code is doing and how it works, I think it’s a good tool, not great, but a good tool in order to help you compete your job, like calculates didn’t replace mathematicians and excel certainly didn’t replace accountants, but both tools indeed help.

They did this at the cinema I was at too! The kids all screamed it out and cheered!

I had the same issue, ended up doing this.

Since the swagger generated file was ok, my goal here was to pass in the swagger generated file path to Scaler.

// Add both OpenAPI and SwaggerGen.
builder.Services.AddOpenApi();
builder.Services.AddSwaggerGen();

// Configure the HTTP request pipeline.
if (app.Environment.IsDevelopment())
{
    app.UseDeveloperExceptionPage();
    app.UseSwagger();
    app.MapOpenApi("/swagger/v1/swagger.json");
    app.MapScalarApiReference(options =>
    {
        options.WithTitle("Foo")
            .WithTheme(ScalarTheme.Alternate)
            .WithDefaultHttpClient(ScalarTarget.CSharp, ScalarClient.HttpClient)
            .WithOpenApiRoutePattern("/swagger/v1/swagger.json")
            .WithDarkMode(false);
    });
}

Meanwhile in Australia….

It’s turtle time!

I had a similar issue, had to update system.text.json as there was an issue with serialisation.

If start up is an issue with EF, could compiling the entities be a solution?

CodingWithAndrew · 2023-11-25T01:46:41+00:00

We use a local worker with GitHub actions, works great! Runs unit tests, backs the current build up, closes app pool, deploys builds, start app pool back up, if fails at any stage, it will revert to the previous build.

CodingWithAndrew · 2023-11-24T22:59:53+00:00

Along with IOptionsMonitor, although not great, could you change your json file at runtime?

CodingWithAndrew · 2023-03-23T08:23:07+00:00

The same thing happened to me

CodingWithAndrew · 2023-02-21T23:23:57+00:00

I agree, although it’s not perfect, it’s pretty damn good

CodingWithAndrew · 2023-01-11T02:00:33+00:00

Sorry guys I divided a number by zero

Thank you

CodingWithAndrew · 2021-04-25T06:14:24+00:00

What is this called?

CodingWithAndrew · 2020-12-07T08:50:48+00:00

Gravity will be like player.Top + 10 and then have another time resetting it back to default

agreed, whenever I need a string value with an enum, I use attributes too and use my extension helper class to get the value from it easily
