LINQPad version 8.8.x has some cool stuff in the release notes.

More AI model support, support for @openrouter.bsky.social to arbitrarily support AI models, a new option to disambiguate databases with many schemas, and a bugfix for a Util feature I had no idea LINQPad already had.

Zur einfachen Interaktion mit den #dotnet Resx-File nehme ich #linqpad -Skripte mit einer kleinen Resx Editor-Klasse. Da wird das zur Fingerübung. Ein Beispiel:

@foltram I can relate :-)
I do either learning level projects for technologies or implementation patterns like "Make a websocket server and two clients communicate which each other" (100 lines of code in 3 #linqpad files) or I implement something I would need myself either at home or at work.

@thejvmbender I can recommend #EFCore. I used version 6, database-first approach, on top of #MSSQL. I wrote some very complex C# Linq queries and then manually validated the SQL queries generated by EFCore using SQL Server Profiler -- they were great and optimal. Using #LinqPad directly connected to the database was also quite convenient for development and experiments.

@khalidabuhakmeh @jonstodle @avaloniaui I think I read somewhere that #LinqPad has a significant amount of Windows Forms code.
LinqPad 8 seems to get some sort of #Avalonia support:

On a site note: It is a pity that LinqPad and Joe Albahari are not on mastodon (or are they).

@alexboly

Not sure if this helps, but my tricks for left joins are:

- Use #linqpad to generate queries for me.
- Swap them around
- Use aliases
- Use temporary tables
- Move things to #NoSql #database (a project can have relational and documents)
- Use views or stored procedures to split complex queries

Other than that: Good luck!

I've FINALLY found a use case for #dotnet #regions! When hardcoding credentials in a temp #linqpad script, but needing to show someone over a video call - wrapping the creds in a region makes it easy to collapse/hide...

@GrahamDowns @cavorter @falkheiland

Especially as a dot net DEV you could profit so much from powershell! In all of my bigger projects I've built C# powershells module to reach behind the UI directly in the domain code.

Currently I'm working on a software which is communicating to machines over CAN. For automating stuff around my daily work i'm using powershell cmdlets. I'm just piping domain objects through my cmdlets.....
For explorative tinkering #linqpad is still king :-)

Just watched @danclarke showing #LinqPad and I'm glad to see people discovering this great productivity tool. I'm using and supporting it from version 1.0 and use it daily.

@danclarke mentioned in one of his blog posts about #LinqPad, that you would need symbolic links in you "scripts" folder and showed how to do that on the command line. I can highly recommend a neat little tool #LinkShellExtension (https://schinagl.priv.at/nt/hardlinkshellext/hardlinkshellext.html) to get that functionality in your right mouse menu on windows explorer

@khalidabuhakmeh yeah, I saw you linking to that. Looks interesting. I think I remember Joe Albahari mentioning that #WPF the main hurdle from porting #LinqPad another platform. #FingersCrossed

@jonstodle well, @avaloniaui just announced XPF, so there might be hope that #linqpad could port to macOS and Linux.

I just completed "Monkey in the Middle" - Day 11 - Advent of Code 2022 #AdventOfCode https://adventofcode.com/2022/day/11 in #csharp and #linqpad.

This one was pretty tricky. Part 1 was mostly parsing, but part 2 definitely required some creative thinking. Felt like I got pretty lucky that my solution actually worked!

After the trauma of day 9, I was pleased and grateful with how quick I got through this one!

I just found out about this #AdventOfCode thing. In 2022… I guess the rock I’ve been living under failed to inform me… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Anyway, I’m all caught up now and it’s been pretty fun! I am using #LinqPad with #CSharp #DotNet 7.
