Finally getting started on our PAX cosplay... Maybe a little late to start, when it's for all four of us, but that's how we roll.
Can you guess the game? Hint: were a squad

Saturday morning status: benchmarking a new function we created this week, which will currently be used in both .NET Framework 4.8.1 and .NET 8 and above.
The perf improvements in ".NET Core" is really mind-blowing 🤯
The sooner we finish our migration project the better!

Did you know Windows Terminal can do "split tabs"?
This is such a productivity boost if you do a lot in terminal
Alt+Shift+- and Alt+Shift++ to split
Alt+Shift+arrows will change the split width/height
Alt+arrows will move between your split
Ctrl+Sft+W to close
And mouse works to move too!

I was speaking with someone the other day at DDD By Night about typing speeds....
It had been a while, and I am always saying how much I hate my new flashy keyboard for typing. Well, it seems when I put my mind to it and concentrate, I can actually do alright still!
(QWERTY keyboard, not DVORAK)

They say never work with children or animals... It was impossible trying to get this cheeky puppy to pose properly with her new Bunnings swag ball from NDC Melbourne, which she found herself in my bag because I'm pretty sure she smelled the new smell of it!!

What a rush, delivering a talk AND a workshop at #NDCMelbourne this week!
It was also my first time attending an NDC event in person, and it was an amazing experience - such great attendees, speakers, organisers, sponsors, food and vibes (No vibe coding, though - phew!)
Thanks @ndcconferences.com!

Ok I'll admit this is a bit insane from 4 days of conference... But there we go, that's a good start on my new Surface - and I haven't even started transferring my old favs yet
