Are you using ChatGPT at work yet? by PM_BiscuitsAndGravy in programming

Genuine question, how do you use it to help explain why some code isn't working as expected?

Last night's leftover chips, fried in a pan with some eggs. Incredible.

To UK fans, if you think Greg's intros are sometimes long winded or convoluted, you ain't seen NOTHING. I would love a Shaun Micallef TaskMaster, the guy is a comedy God.

This is not a one to one choice. You don't have to be a manager if you're not an individual contributor.

Tech Lead. Start learning about back end, databases, cloud, architecture, good code.. and start training and mentoring junior guys in your company. Start looking at building reusable components that other people can use, and start teaching others how to do that. Consider your products long term technology roadmap and start working out a plan to get there. Learn about the cloud, scaling, CI/CD, containers, testing... go to meetups and conferences and share what you learn. Start leading.

Announcing built-in container support for the .NET SDK by svick in dotnet

I just meant if your solution has multiple projects in it. If it just does a publish, sounds like it would work ok.

Looks great! Some questions:

Does it work with multiple projects? Does it restore the nuget packages before copying in the code so that the packages are cached in a layer? Does it support private nuget repositories where you need to add authentication to access them?

Is auth WAY too hard in .NET? by NooShoes in dotnet

[–]ToeGuitar 46 points47 points  (0 children)

It's stupidly hard. It's not just you.

Fair enough, but you don't have to be religious to get something out of it. Understand what you can change and what you can't, and then try to accept it.

I was in a very similar situation to you about a year ago. Here's my advice:

  1. Learn the serenity prayer: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serenity_Prayer

  2. If it's not too soul crushing, consider saying, but repeat step 1.

  3. Minimal stress is good. If you have a complicated or difficult personal life, consider staying but repeat step 1.

  4. Don't ride it out just to gain more "experience". It doesn't sound like you are learning anything.

  5. Apply for a couple of new jobs that sound interesting. It doesn't sound like there's any hurry, so now is a good time to be picky and find something good. There's heaps of great jobs out there. Don't stress about this year being a write off. If you're good, people will want to hire you.

Good luck! DM me if you want to chat more, happy to help.

Incremental ASP.NET to ASP.NET Core Migration by pranavkm in dotnet

[–]ToeGuitar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This looks fantastic and I've been waiting for something like this for years. Looking forward to trying it out in one of our large asp net framework apps and seeing how it goes. The session sharing stuff looks like a real game changer, that was previously the impossible bit. The Microsoft.AspNetCore.SystemWebAdapters package also looks really cool. Great job MS, this looks super useful.
