Using CancellationTokenSource.CancelAfter with a TimeProvider is not obvious and potentially inefficient depending on how you do it.

I often see people mention JIT and GC as performance differentiators comparing C++ and C#, but rarely see mention of object allocation overhead and locality of reference (reference types) or branch target prediction (interfaces/DI).

#Dune2 was an absolute masterpiece. If you like movies, it felt like the way parents/grandparents describe seeing Star Wars. If you like the book, not only does it live up but it ADDS to it in ways that will probably satisfy you. Go see it.

When you're young and figuring things out, it's common to quickly assume bugs exist in a platform/library when you can't find them in your code. It's usually in your code. When you're old and find an actual bug you work extra hard to make sure you aren't fooling yourself 😂

Nitpick of annoyance at @Atlassian listing "C", "C++", and "CSharp". Why not "C#"?

Congrats to the beautiful couple I met at Reflections Lake today! Didn't expect to act as an official witness to a wedding while hiking but it was the best part of my day.

Me, with 32MB RAM: wow, this app is slow and taking up all my memory, it must be using MFC. Me, with 64GB RAM: wow, this app is slow and taking up all my memory, it must be using Electron.
