In this week's issue, @tpeczek.bsky.social explores why the traditional mindset around documentation leads to either outdated or no documentation and how this mindset can be shifted.

Ever see a startup raise millions for an idea you already built? 😅
That's what happened to me. $15M funding round for a tool similar to my dusty PoC was the spark I needed
I'm officially reviving my project, 𝗦𝗶𝗱𝗲 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁𝗲𝗿, and I'm documenting the entire journey.

I've added Azure SQL change tracking to my set of samples showing how to expose various databases changefeed from ASP​.NET Core.

(Also for this one I got to play with Microsoft Graph extension for Bicep to make it credential-less)

In @gutek.pl's latest post, he talks about the overload loop and how WIP limits helped me reclaim focus.
