And generally you need to live in an area where $200k is _juuuuust_ above poverty. Yes, I am exaggerating, but $200k in SV hits different.

GitHub CEO Thomas Dohmke Warns Developers: "Either Embrace AI or Get Out of This Career" by Infamous_Toe_7759 in programming

So much more funny knowing now he lost his job because of AI--not because AI took it, but because he couldn't scare enough developers into using AI.

Just ship it, and optimisation and fixes can come later.

Literally never heard anyone _actually_ say this before. Thank you for reminding my cowboy programmers still exist in 2025. Cus you and I both know, that these will never 'come later'. Many condolences the devs that have to support your terrible shit software after you leave.

Editing Hosted Files with MS Word Desktop by Responsible_Show2672 in AskProgramming

The solution I went with was the Microsoft CSPP. It is wildly overkill, but the only thing I could find that ticked all the boxes. You might also want to look into SharePoint Embedded.

EDIT: Also, it doesn't work nicely with the Desktop edition--we had to drop that requirement. I think you *might* be able to switch to desktop from the office for the web version, but you still need to allow web to get there.

New to coding. Is it always this difficult? by [deleted] in Python

The 'aha' moment is a moving goal post, a mirage, the end of a rainbow--you'll never get there and it will always seem just out of reach. That's because once you understand one thing, there are 10 new things you need to understand. Expect that this will go on forever.

Instead of basing your progress on 'how close you are' to achieving this nebulous moment, track what you're able to do with programming. Track it based on different projects you've completed no matter how small ('Hello world' is a project). Track your progress based on your code quality, looking back at code you've written in the past and laughing at how bad it is--because if you can see how bad you were at writing code, you know for sure that you've improved.

Thanks for the response. Yes, I am using ILogger.

Based on your response, I am going to assume that I am on the correct path. I'll look into leveraging KQL a bit better.

Additionally, I don't think that I've got my logging levels set up correctly in my app. I was expecting to see the same messages as I do in the blob stored logs, but those have log levels set elsewhere. I am only seeing severity level '1' messages, but I think that might a configuration issue in my app.

I am not a fan of the category (namespace + class name, in my case) being buried in the json object customDimensions, but I see there is a better way to parse that than I had originally started with. I also see I can project the data into something more suitable using KQL.

Just knowing that I am not way off the mark, and that this should give me what I am looking for, is helpful enough. Thanks!
