I pinned a WSLg application to the taskbar in Windows 11, but it lost the icon and became a generic Remote Desktop icon/app that cannot be unpinned (no unpin option in the right-click menu). Does anyone know how to get rid of it? @JenMsft ?.

However, I don't say that I use TDD. I also don't say that I use a keyboard. Some things are just part of the usual workflow & not worth mentioning.

This is important! I work like this as well. As Cory writes, it's equally important to be transparent about what you're doing. At one client, we constantly improve the code so that we can deliver value faster. Since we do it all the time, it seldom becomes a big thing.
I don’t ask for permission to refactor. I don’t ask for permission to optimize performance. I don’t ask for permission to make it secure. I don’t ask for permission to make it accessible. I don’t ask for permission to write tests. I don’t ask for permission to do my job

#MongoDB 8.0 has been released. But what do the coloured bars next to the version numbers in the lower box mean?

The Swedish translation in my Audi is a bit confusing. The text asks if I want to load vehicle configuration, but the button says Save. I wonder if it makes more sense in German. #audi

In a rare turn of events, I set aside time to finish my blog post about C# source generators that started brewing some time before summer:. #csharp.

I mean, once you have coded a little bit of Haskell, Scala, Kotlin, Python, or even just modern JavaScript, old-style C# feels very clumsy. I'd like to see even more powerful pattern matching in C#. And to be able to use new language features in expression trees!.

Lots of people complaining that this is hard to understand. Sure, the variable names can be improved, but other than that I think it's very nice! It's good to see C# adopt useful features from other languages.

Some of the answers seem to indicate that TDD prevents you from just mashing arbitrary code together, like calling the DB directly from UI handlers. Sure, but if you want to write that kind of code, why even bother with TDD or even tests at all?.

Stuck in a "you're accessing sensitive information so we need to verify your identity" loop in the Teams app. Why does Teams have to be so complicated when other communication apps are so easy? 😥.

And spaces instead of tabs.
coding would be so much easier if everyone used the same language.

Tests. I did that, and it was amazing!.
