"bflat is a native compiler for C# that comes with everything you need to build C# apps for any of the supported platforms. No additional SDKs or NDKs needed"
With it, it's even possible to build C# applications to #Windows 3.1 (!?)

Out of 6 languages recommended by the NSA, 4 are patended bvy multibillion comanies who can pull the plug on them at any time (and Oracle already tried that).
C# - PATENTED by Microsoft,
Go - PATENTED by Google
Java - PATENTED by Oracle, NOT FREE
Python - not too shabby
Rust - not too shabby
Swift - PATENTED by Apple

We just got to working federation, and I'm wrapping up a lot of work on docs and cleanup this weekend. There's a ton to do, and we want your help.
Very proud of my team! Announcing the release of the new Foundational C# Certification in collaboration with freeCodeCamp. The certification is completely free, globally available, and includes a full 35-hour C# training course hosted on Microsoft Learn. Get started at https://msft.it/60199TYZv today, it’s FREE!!! #dotnet#certification#CSharp
🐤 I'm excited to share a fully tested, third-person 3D game demo built with #godot and #csharp. Hope this helps you!
This demo is based on the 14 open source packages I've been hard at work on over the last two and a half years and a ton of help from you all. Link in thread 💛
I have spent the past ~7 years helping build the open source OmniSharp, a C# language server, until I retired from the project earlier this year.
For years it provided the backbone for C# experience in Visual Studio Code and other editors and was used by millions of developers. Despite all of its problems, it has to be remembered that it was built in free time by a small group of passionate folks, and building a language experience and providing constant support in this quickly changing landscape is not technically trivial and emotionally very burdening.
I never did do an #introduction and it kinda feels weird to start now, but oh well.
I met my wife at speed dating. 16 years and 2 kids later, it seems like maybe it went okay.
I love cars but have never had the money to own anything interesting, I just like them 🤷♂️
I am much too shy and introverted to ever start a DM conversation with you, or say hi if I see you in person, but will happily stand on stage and talk to hundreds of people. Don't take it personally.
My hobbies include sitting and staring at my phone wishing I had hobbies.
I collect #lego, mainly cars, but I don't really call it a hobby, because I just like following the instructions and then putting them on a shelf.
I once jumped out of a plane, and pulled a ripcord to release a parachute. I survived.
I used to work for a band, and made a flash app for them that ran when you put their CD in your computer.
If you've stayed on-campus in a US University after 2007, my code probably processed your housing application.
I am a cat person. I am not a dog person. Sadly my wife is a dog person who is allergic to cats.
I like writing #csharp, compiling it, decompiling it, then going "hmmmm" and making up explanations for what I see.
I work at Microsoft on #dotnet sort of stuff and I'm pretty chuffed to be doing so.
Heya! 🥳 Just released TurboXml https://github.com/xoofx/TurboXml a .NET library that provides a SAX like XML parser that can parse small to large XML documents with zero allocations (apart for an internal buffer that is pooled) and is able to accelerate its parsing with SIMD! 🚀
I can now continue my prototype of rendering some SVG by using this library 😅
Hey, #csharp and #dotnet developers! This is SUPER exciting for me to be able to do...
#JetBrains has provided me with dotUltimate licenses to give away! You can literally win an entire full-year single-seat license of dotUltimate, which is nearly $500 USD 😱

Hm is it me or there is some sort of obsession to constantly update a programming language to fill it with "stuff" and "features"
I'm noticing a clear trend for this in #csharp and #cpp, but I'm sure there are others
I mean people keep asking why C is still widely used. I'm pretty sure that one of the reasons is that the spec has barely changed in 50 years or so and it works
C'mon some programming languages are fine as they are, please don't keep crowding them unless absolutely necessary pls?
I have finally “finished" and written up the "it'll just be a couple of weeks!” project that I started in December, exploring the idea of writing a Windows app in C# that calls into a cross-platform Swift codebase.
It's been quite the journey 😅, and if you find this sort of thing interesting I'd appreciate it if you'd check it out and give it a boost.
This article is all about how things are looking great for hiring Laravel devs in 2024, and I’m not seeing it.
I’ve been job-searching for 3 months, and very, very, very few of those jobs are decent-paying #PHP / #Laravel jobs. Sure, PHP/Laravel jobs exist, but most (anecdotally) pay far less than the rate others are willing to pay for #Golang, #Python, #Rust, #Elixir, #Java, #Csharp, and #TypeScript developers.
The industry does not value the output of PHP developers.
We just shipped v2 Core Framework 2.6.6 and Analyzers 1.10.0. The core framework update adds assembly-level BeforeAfterTest support, as well as eliminating false security warnings related to old packages from .NET Standard 1.x. We've also added two new analyzers and fixed issues in a few more.
I've been impacted by the recent #layoffs at Farfetch. Are you in need of an experienced #CSharp developer? I'm ready to start right away. With extensive expertise in developing libraries for #dotnet, I'm based in Lisbon, Portugal. Feel free to review my abilities on my blog. https://aalmada.github.io/
I'm working on chapters 7 and 8 of the C# Networking Book. I hope to have Chapter 7, Data Serialization Techniques, out early next week and Chapter 8, Network Performance Optimization, out the following week.
With Chapter 8 finished, I will have the basics done.
