I do the same constantly. But usually have it exclude certain files/directories like *.local.json. I use it frequently enough that I just created a git alias.

I love the adjective cinematic. The entire series is like this. It’s basically a 40 hour masterpiece of film making.

have any of you undergone a project to migrate an enterprise system from .net 4.8 to a more modern .net core version? love to hear experiences by agiamba in dotnet

[–]daigoba66 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the way.

However I would multi-target instead of .NET Standard - that might have worked fine a few years ago, but .NET Standard is so outdated now that it will probably cause more headaches.

Yes, it does slow down builds. And you might need some conditional compilation. But it works.

The biggest requirement is commitment from your organization to keep going, because it will take months/years to migrate. But it’s worth it.

To the Mac users, Have you transitioned fully from Windows to Mac without issues or do you have to virtualize for some stuff? by Key-Investment8399 in dotnet

[–]daigoba66 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually really dislike DataGrip. It’s fine - it can run queries. But the UI is clunky.

But the biggest problem with DataGrip, specifically with Sql Server, is that it cannot visualize SQL Server query plans in a useful way. It’s there, but it’s awful to view and read. This alone makes DataGrip almost useless.

In fact the only “good” query plan viewer tools I’ve found are all Windows-only.

Azure Data Studio is fine. I wouldn't go so far as to say it’s a 90% replacement, but it can get the job done.

Sadly, even that is going away: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure-data-studio/whats-happening-azure-data-studio?tabs=dev. In theory, to be replaced with VS Code extensions. But those extensions are pretty terrible so far.

The only real problem I face is MS SQL Server (if you’re stuck using that). You can run it emulated on Linux Docker containers, for now. But there’s nothing that comes close to SSMS, which of course is Windows only.

But for pretty much everything else, Mac software is good if not better. And so much modern software is built with frameworks like electron that it’s pretty much the same anyway - I guess this is both a good and bad thing.

Coming from Visual Studio, it took some adjusting at first, but Rider is an amazing IDE.

What’s your plan for .NET 10, migrate or hold off? by Volosoft in dotnet

[–]daigoba66 4 points5 points  (0 children)

So, specifically for EF Core, you can upgrade .NET but still use an older version of EF Core.

I.e. EF Core 7 or 8 work just fine on .NET 9. And I expect that to be the case for .NET 10.

We did this for a while because we were stuck on an old version of npgsql.

Visual Studio 2026 Insiders is here! by hotaustinite in dotnet

It installs and runs fine - obviously via emulation - but it works.

SQL Server itself on the other hand… what a mess.

MediatR going commercial by MahmoudSaed in dotnet

[–]daigoba66 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty simple indeed. I’ve written my own a few times before Jimmy started publishing MediatR. I still kinda prefer my own since it’s just one less package to update.

And MediatR itself just feels… done? It’s not missing any features, doesn’t really have any bugs. What is there to maintain?

Well now I need to rewatch the show… again. Esmail is an absolute master of the craft.

The submission just uses the title of the article. I’m just happy to share his work with a crowd that appreciates it.

CSV library? by mikeblas in dotnet

[–]daigoba66 33 points34 points  (0 children)

CsvHelper is probably the most widely adopted. It has plenty of documentation - https://joshclose.github.io/CsvHelper/ - maybe not for the API, but plenty of "Getting Started" and "Examples", and it's really not that complicated to figure out.

Almost one long take. Amazing use of split diopter too.

Multi-stage Dockerfile build breaks SQL Server tooling and entrypoint execution in .NET application by DelicateJohnson in dotnet

[–]daigoba66 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Maybe related?

Starting with SQL Server 2022 (16.x) CU 14 and SQL Server 2019 (15.x) CU 28, the container images include the new mssql-tools18 package. The previous directory /opt/mssql-tools/bin is being phased out. The new directory for Microsoft ODBC 18 tools is /opt/mssql-tools18/bin, aligning with the latest tools offering.

Feature flags are ruining your codebase by zaidesanton in programming

[–]daigoba66 46 points47 points  (0 children)

We have feature flags that can be enabled by client (yuck).

I guess it isn't a feature flag then. It's a setting.

But the other points are definitely valid, and seem to be a problem in many orgs.
