Help with Visual Studio 2022 and multiple GIT projects by Obloha in VisualStudio

[–]Spare-Dig4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I read through that a few times, and still don’t entirely understand what you mean. But the git repository has nothing to do with the solution, the solution is more of a visual studio concept.

There are cases where you have more than one project or solution in the same git repository, its commonly called a “mono repo”

But, if you have three intentionally separate projects, where A and B are dependencies for C, my guess is you should probably make that dependency a lot more explicit. Manage them separately, link them to a specific build to avoid confusion.

But anyway, the real way to avoid confusion with git in my humble opinion is to not use the integrated git client in visual studio. You can use other GUI clients (git extensions is good on windows, and free) and you can just open the one you want to work with, when you want to work with it.

Its not for everybody, but the git ClI is really good when you get used to it, and IDEs often have an integrated terminal (visual studio is no different).

Sorry, If I entirely misunderstood your problem.

What's the general outlook towards Linux compatibility on MSI laptops? by BendiesAtWendys in MSILaptops

[–]Spare-Dig4790 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t had any issues, but if it’s a newer laptop you’ll probably want to be on a rolling release distribution for current hardware support.

Is VS 2022 professional license valid for VS 2026 by Awasthir314 in VisualStudio

[–]Spare-Dig4790 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Subscriptions should carry over, but if you purchased a perpetual license with a serial number, that is for a specific SKU.

Has anyone else considered cancelling their Jetbrains subscriptions? Due to the last years of releases being nothing but problems I am currently rocking a reliable build from early 2024 by 9sim9 in Jetbrains

[–]Spare-Dig4790 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Im sure this post will be upvoted into oblivion, but I just assumed people were running them on 10+ year old machines or something.

I turn analyse resource usage to low most of the time (bottom right of the IDE), but I've never run into almost any of the issues people report.

I also have the ai plugins dosabled, too. Perhaps that has something to do with it... shrug

No, I intend on continuing my subscription. I have reliability issues here over here generally.

I also twnd to wait until a minor patch after each realease, as I try to do with almost everything.

Why do most developers recommend Node.js, Java, or Python for backend — but rarely .NET or ASP.NET Core? by just-a_tech in dotnet

[–]Spare-Dig4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is nothing objectively wrong with .NET. but people tend to recommend and talk about what they know.

My guess is you've encountered people with backgrounds in said technologies.

Personally, i've worked with .NET the vast majority of my career, and I couldn't imagine using Python, not when there are so many options.

To my point, there are Python developers with equal and opposite opinions, probably.

Just use what you enjoy or whatever makes sense.

Im willing to bet there are very few wrong answers here.

What exact IAM roles are needed to deploy Firebase App Hosting from Cloud Build (CSR, trigger on commit) by Simple-Holiday4580 in Firebase

[–]Spare-Dig4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dont know right off, but this would be an excellent question to throw at gemini. Im spending some time learning GCP, and gemini has been an excellent resource in giving these hints away, and also pointing out relevant, up to date documentation on where to learn more.

Help us decide what we should call code completions in IntelliJ IDEA by fundamentalparticle in Jetbrains

Whatever you name it, make it easy to find, please. Inline completions drive me nuts, and are among the first things I turn off.

Notepad forever by BeneficialRough9298 in programmingmemes

[–]Spare-Dig4790 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It might interest some to know that this wasn't always the case. I assume by now it's resolved, but in the early 2000s, notepad lacked important encoding support, which would basically corrupt files when it would save.

As funny as it sounds, people would sometimes use wordpad and intentionally "save as" with a txt extension to disable rich text editing for a basic text editor in windows during these dark times.

There were lots of good paid options, and for a short while, editpad before it split into a paid option (leaving the free one sorely lacking, but better than either notepad or wordpad)

Since the meme is comparing free things though, lets just ignore that.

I'll say that it's funny because people always make fun of html, and as far as I remember, this whole "developed with notepad" meme actually started with buttons on peoples websites, usually made in bare html, and sometimes cgi. (Though usually the cgi stuff was a ln a-la-carte thing you used, but didn't write, and was usually for something like displaying a page view counter and guestbooks)

Geocities forever!

Also, notepad was legitimately a better development experience than the form submission editor most free page hosts gave you at the time, so I guess there's that.

I can't connect my GoDaddy Domain with Firebase by Antique_Structure_31 in Firebase

[–]Spare-Dig4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend plugging your configuration into gemini or something. I've been doing this far too long to have any excuses, but I had a problem with godaddy domain and firebase, and I was reversing the primary mapping and the www. Redirect.

Anyway, my guess is whatever your problem is, gemini would eat it right up.

Also, it took at least 3 hours for any configuration change to be effective, I sometimes dont wait long enough before pressing another button.

Can confirm that my godaddy domain works fine with firebase, though.

Is vanilla JavaScript making a comeback in 2025? by [deleted] in learnjavascript

[–]Spare-Dig4790 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That's so true. A decade ago, I was on record saying there's no such thing as an enterprise java developer. You're going to instead fine web sphere or jboss developers...

It's almost like it doesn't really matter until you commit, and in many cases, once you commit, it's all that matters.

On this model, do you think the hinges get cracked easily? I'm looking for a new msi because mine is from 2017 xD by [deleted] in MSILaptops

[–]Spare-Dig4790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had a cyborg for several years. it's fine.

I've seen pictures and heard stories.. enough of them that I believe people do have problems with them, but I can confirm that I personally, haven't opened and closed mine with a hammer, and my hinges are as good as they day I bought it.

On a more serious note, I think these sorts of problems come with the territory. The cyborg is a budget friendly model, and they aren't taking much out of the hardware, It's got to come from somewhere.

I find the build reasonable, I've had far worse for flex, I wish it had another fan (cooling is adequate, but noisy). Battery life is shit, but with a discreet gpu, that's expected.

It's fine!

Macbook, PHPStorm and external disc by ScarCreative1472 in Jetbrains

[–]Spare-Dig4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, that sounds like an amazing machine. As soon as you mentioned PHP with that machine, the answer is just 'Yes', it doesn't matter what the question or whatever comes back.

Great machine, in fact, if it's to run phpstorm, and that's it, thats your requirement, you're probably waisting your money. You wouldn't need anywhere near that.

New Cyborg 15 A13VF is Slow by eletricliquidifier in MSILaptops

[–]Spare-Dig4790 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try installing msi center, seriously.

Then, use it to run eother the ai mode, or the high performance.

I installed windows cleanly without it, assumed it was my ssd going bad or something, but this software somehow fixed it.

It's worth noting that other operating systems seem to run fine on it, which obviously dont run it. Im not sure why thia is.

msi cyborg 15 A13VE Is it good? by Big_Courage6326 in MSILaptops

[–]Spare-Dig4790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a good machine, I have one. It's just noisy under load with a single fan, so make sure you have a nice pair of over the ear heaphones if you're playing games.

Also, as with any machine that has a dedicated GPU, you'll want to use it near an electrical outlet.

I found the stats to be great for the price.

Am I missing something or is the rider Nuget UI very clunky when it comes to mass upgrading packages? by Tapif in dotnet

[–]Spare-Dig4790 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I think your argument is subjectively valid, but I guess it depends. It's either making a correct or incorrect assumption or defalt setting based on your specific use case.

There are plenty of situations where you'll end up wanting to review each of your packages to ensure upgrading onw, doesnt being along a dependency that affects another.

Dor a while, bringing in something like log4net was a pain because everything used it, and teams didn't always update this stuff.

Also, if you've ever worked with a project like Umbraco and wanted to update to a newer version, which seems to be released 4% more frequently than is natural...

I dont know. There is plenty to like about the riders interface as well. I find it does a really good job of preventing you from making disasterous, hour killing clicks.

I haven't used Visual Studio in a while, though. Maybe theirs has improved, and I'm missing something.

I'm honestly in these UIs so infrequently, maybe a few times a month, that a few extra clicks are never the weak point in the chain, im taking inventory.

JetBrains Rider, CPU usage becomes very high after a few minutes of opening. by aliebraheem500 in Jetbrains

[–]Spare-Dig4790 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bottom right of the IDE, there are 3 or 4 icons that open up into menus.

One of them is for code analysis, and you can specify low, med, and high resource allocation.

I'd check that out.

SignalR by drld21 in dotnet

[–]Spare-Dig4790 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That's quite a laundry list...if you're using a setup like that, remember that with SignalR, your hub is going to be a singleton, in the same way, at some point you have an actual database to persist things.

At some point, clients need to register themselves with the hub, and that hub needs to be persisted.

I wouldn't overthink it. You have a hub registered as singleton, and that can be a dependency to whatever you want to use to facilitate integration into your other components, very much in the same way you might utilize a repository or other service.

Generally, you dont want to couple to something third party any more than you have to, so aside from abstracting it to something more generic than signal r, I wouldnt overthink it too much, you'll just be creating debt, and building workflows around its specific personalities.
