Huh, I wonder if the large improvement in understanding Java is heavily connected with understanding C# better?

I'm just guessing based on language similarities between the two

> For me personally, better support for c#/.net.

I feel this one. Especially if you want to do anything with razor pages and/or Blazor.

It's still workable. But the experience is far from VS Code and Visual Studio sadly

This isn't unique for OpenAI models. A lot of the open source ones has similar limitations.

> So how can AI usefully suggest design-level and conceptual ideas in a way that doesn’t require a user “trigger”?

I'm just guessing here. But maybe make it part of some other (already natural and learned) trigger made by the user.

I'm thinking part of refactoring. Were your AI is not only looking at the code, but the LSP, recent git changes (both commit and branch name), which code files you've been browsing.

And if you want to make it even more powerful. I guess also part of your browser history will be relevant (even if there is privacy concerns)

The human body is so wild with things like this.

What happened to your toe? Did you loose the capability to move it individually from the others?

It's never too late. It took me almost 18years of going back and forth until I did it.

For sure!

But idea behind these AI tutors are to help and guide you through the process of asking questions until you understands.

Will it be perfect? hell no! Just another tool for teachers to either enhance and/or give extra help with almost no extra resources.

Hopefully this will pan out for the better then the worse

Had similar issues as well. I use a Nordic layout for my keyboard (which includes åäö). These extra characters were a pain to bind certain key combinations to.

Been using preview versions of Aspire for a while now. At early stages there were a lot of bugs, but since preview 3 (or if it was 4) it's been pretty stable.

Adding services has also been really nice. I've even found my self not writing docker-compose files anymore.

Kind of hyped what upcoming versions of it will offer.

Be aware tho, be careful to use .Net 9 version of the packages as of now. They can be a bit iffy if you mix .net 8 packages with 9. It will probably be fixed very soon tho

> it doesn't take much browsing in categories such as tattoo design to spot the hallmarks of AI generated artwork

Which is kind of interesting. My first tattoo has its roots from it. Where I used ChatGPT together with DALL-e to express the concept I wanted on my body, and not a direct translation of it.

Worked out pretty well, got a lot easier to discuss how and what things would work and how to apply them.

I usually recommend new users to check out Kickstart. It contains a set of plugins and nice to haves so you don't have to discover them your self.

All plugins are in one file + has a lot of comments to help you get started.

I think vittualization would be enough. Especially if it works well with an external monitor.

I think so too. Especially after the split from iOS to ipados. Hopefully they'll show something during this year's WWDC

So, do I understand this right. But is this supposed to be a centralized (in a way) application for collecting all OpenTelemtry data related to LLM's? And it's supposed to support various of related services and/or services today?

I see how this can be really useful. But at the same time, how do you guys see your self differentiate your self from cloud hosted equivalents? (e.g dashboard-like services in Azure and similar).

Anyhow, interesting project. I'll keep an eye on it for future use

Nah, the same issue here as well

This is how I remembered it as well.

Kind of preferred Google Code over GitHub for a while. Or at least until it had enough functionality and/or tools to support it.

Almost feels like it's time again for a shift...but it will probably be a while

We might not be that far away already. There is this issue[1] on Github, where Microsoft and the community discuss some significant changes.

There is still a lot of questions unanswered, but initial tests look promising.

> I hung out with a friend while they solved Advent of Code challenges in Excel, that was a trip to watch.

That sounds wild. Do you or your friend have anything to share about this?

I did something similar as well. But instead curling from files I've been using http-files.

Depending on which project I'm working on (and customer), I'll be using different tools to run em.

But to show you an easy example to follow, you could check out this jetbrains cli tool https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2022/12/http-client-cli-run-...

Usually it's not that bad. But those times when a 12 slot charging spot is almost filled by 4 or 5 vehicles is so frustrating.

They really implemented it so well into the show. Every character actually spoke it and not rehearsed the language like a lot of other shows and movies does.

This may happen if you chose a model which is larger then your available unified memory.

Which version of llama2 did you choose? And how much unified memory do you have?

Probably organization accounts

With the new Dev Kit extension in VS Code, it no longer uses omnisharp. So it may gotten better in larger monorepos.

But my guess it's still faster in Rider

It has taken .net and Microsoft a long time to get to this point. But I do feel we're in a really good state for .net development.

I do agree what kqr mentions in the blog post, that the state of .net wasn't really that great during the core era (especially during 1-3). But after hitting .net core 3.1 things really took a turn.

And now with .Net 8 (note that core is not part of the naming anymore), things are looking great.

The two things which lags behind in both experience and is still UX related.

MAUI was meant to be this super cool new UX tech, which would save us from electron. But it never happen, and may never do it in the future either.

The second one is Blazor. It's such a mixed bag of what the experience is. Sometimes it's so seamless and nice...and then you hit some weird LSP stuff and away goes type checking, hinting and syntax highlighting. But there is hope ig guess.

If you're interested in writing C# and .Net code on a Linux machine. Then wait no further. VS Code (with .Net dev kit extension) works great.

And if you're like (which prefers neovim), things are pretty good as well. Just don't expect to have a good experience with razor pages and/or blazor (when using Neovim instead of VS Code).

Usually I only manage internal facing applications these days, which makes the attack surface greatly reduced compare to public ones.

But since you seem to have a lot of knowledge in this area. Have you manage solutions which also includes infrastructure in Azure combined with Cloudflare?

And if so, any suggestions on things people usually miss? except for the usual stuff of OWASP and what not

I kind of agree, but at the same time I don't. Before REST API's has always been a situation of discussion ( as in schema and what not, even with openapi). But with GrapQL I've seen more discussion about the schema the anything else. Which is what I prefer as a backend developer.

So if GraphQL front-end developers into discussion about schema I rather take that over whatever REST solution they're using today.

But I might be biased here...

yes they do.

And depending on the subject and/or what you're trying to do, it will have a larger impact the just talking to the model

Built an application using strictly Blazor wasm for my last assignment (so .Net 7).

It wasn't a easy ride (especially when it comes to LSP support for razor pages). But the overall experience was pretty decent.

Almost half of our users preferred to use the application as a PWA (using windows 10 and edge) instead of an ordinary tab in your browser.

Somethings to consider tho: Upgrades to service workers and what not can be a bit challenging depending on your situation.

Keep in mind that a lot of firewalls and antivituses may block all those binary downloads (since it's just dll files). There are ways around it ofc, but still expect files to be blocked.

Authorization changed between .net 7 and 8. So make sure you understand what these changes are (if you use packages from Microsoft)

I still find it a bit crazy how familiar HN still feels after so many years I've been reading posts here. Most of that time was me lurking and latter me starting to interact with the community.

It's always nice to get your world view shattered by someone more knowledgeable or getting a point of view you wouldn't get anywhere else. Stay the same HN and kudos to dang for keeping up with all the comments and posts being submitted.

Happy new years y'all
