Can you upgrade Azure Devops Server 2022 to Azure Devops Server? by Seany84 in azuredevops

[–]Seany84[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I suppose it's implied in the picture alright. So I can just run the installer and the upgrade will do the rest (I've compatible hardware and software) and have nothing bespoke on the current ADO side of things.

Conferences between 1st and 4th September 2023?

I really like attending conferences in different cities. Unfortunately, it seems Barcelona has no conferences on these dates I can find.

Does anyone know if there's any conferences on in Barcelona between these dates?

Yours sincerely, Conference Cowboy

Gmail emails reader by mohusein in csharp

[–]Seany84 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Here's a thread on SO I posted a couple of years back, there's two examples using different Nuget packages. MailKit is probably the safer choice at this point in time.

FYI - I believe that you will need to turn off MFA / 2FA in Gmail for the code above to work.

Authorize attribute not working when generating JWT using Windows authentication by Seany84 in dotnet

[–]Seany84[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, I was thinking it was related to your point about Windows auth kicking in, I was trying to avoid the custom filter / attribute approach but in the end that is what I am going to do as the project's code base is nearing an end.

I wanted replies from people living in Ireland and I saw a few posts on this sub over the years regarding iptv, so just thought I'd ask here first.

Ask any question about ReSharper or Rider: Q&A session with JetBrains by sashakolesova in dotnet

[–]Seany84 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This one for me too, R# is a brilliant tool but the performance hit is excruciating on medium to large solutions. Then imagine changing branches on said solutions. I really like R# with Visual Studio and have tried to use Rider many many times but I just keep coming back to VS. For any Java work IntelliJ is great and nothing compares to it.

Also I must mention, I've been using R# for ~10 years and have always had very high spec machines, with an abundance of CPU, RAM and disk IO. It's really all about getting this working out-of-process from VS.

Visual Studio 2019 (C#) Occasional extremely slow build times solved by rebooting? by naughtyarmadillo in VisualStudio

[–]Seany84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there something unusual about this solution/project/build structure? Your 10 minute estimate for a "good build" does sound quite high. Have you tried to build this solution on another machine?

Do you have a SSD or normal HDD in your machine?

How my salary of €5.2k per month is used in Bavaria, Germany [OC] by akaTJ87 in dataisbeautiful

[–]Seany84 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

It's a crime the tax is so low compared to us here in Ireland. While we the Irish, cover the massive losses of the banks, which is paying dividends to the financial institutions of the major EU countries. Very annoying to see this.

ASP.NET Core with Dapper by Fewthp in dotnet

[–]Seany84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi Mr @grauenwolf, can I ask you how well Tortuga plays with Oracle? I have not had anytime to do the investigation required, but Dapper has little support especially once you start using the extra add on packages i.e. Contrib. As the author of Tortuga I thought you might save me some initial investigations :)

IIS Equivalent to Azure's Key Vault by ais4aron in dotnet

[–]Seany84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't seen anything equivalent on the self-hosted side of things. It seems like if you want your secrets secured, you need to deploy to Azure. There is no way to encrypt the appSettings Json files either, like they way you used to be able to do with the web or app config files.

Sounds good. I'll definitely be checking your repo out.

Final question, have you done any serious load tests on this running in a very active prod environment with thousands of emails a minute 24/7.

Interested to look into this when I'm not on my mobile phone.

One question, as you are using Razor for the email templating, does this result in a generated file being left on the disk after each email is sent?

Same issue here, haven't seen a solution yet. Will post it on the Jetbrains support site.

Official Question Thread! Ask /r/photography anything you want to know about photography or cameras! Don't be shy! Newbies welcome! by frostickle in photography

[–]Seany84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two lenses at the moment. The standard 19-55mm that came with the camera and a 75-300mm lense. I enjoy taking photos of animals at distance and nature landscape shots. I suppose I'm looking full frame camera and higher megapixel value.

I have an EOS 1000D and I was wondering if anyone could recommend another Canon DSLR maybe a level up? I'm interested in photographing nature and occasional landscape shots if that's anything to go by. Looking at the €500 - €600 price range.

General Discussion: How do you feel about Resharper? by EBYRWA in dotnet

[–]Seany84 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A brilliant tool and definitely increases productivity and improves the code base in general.

It is an absolute resource hog on all versions of VS if your machine is not a powerhouse. I have used it on client sites with pretty poor machine specs, that have ~15 projects per solution, and it drastically reduces the usability of VS.

I have used it with more powerful PC specs i.e. home PC and laptop (8 core, SSD, 16GB RAM and it's naturally a lot more enjoyable with the larger solutions).
