  1. It still needs some fit and finish, but if you would have told me in my 20s that my little #WinForms app would run on #Android one day I prolly would’ve told you to shut your wh*re mouth. But here we are. (You can still shut up, never a bad time for that)

  4. I was miserable in that position. I left MS in 2012, joined a company that worked on mobile security, and worked on Windows Phone apps (Silverlight and XAML, so nice!). Then another company, their internal software used WPF, so pleasant. All that time, I watched and followed the C++/WinRT, UWP, WinUI. Could not believe what madness I am seeing...

    BTW, I played with Avalonia for a bit, it feels genuinely brilliant. Just a handful of people. 2/2

  6. Создание оптимизатора Windows на PowerShell: от идеи до GUI-инструмента

    Слушайте, давайте я расскажу, как получилось создать инструмент для настройки Windows на чистом PowerShell с графическим интерфейсом. Не "еще один бустер", а нормальное приложение, которое меняет систему и сразу закрывается — без всяких фоновых процессов.

  7. I saw a pattern in #ReactJS today that made my heart hurt. A prop called `show` is passed in to tell the component whether or not to render.

    The problem is, the render function of the component still runs on every render of the parent even when no e of the work is necessary. A better pattern is to define your condition and then use `&&` to avoid rendering it at all.

    The reasoning behind it appears to have been familiarity for devs who came from #WinForms when we started this project.

  9. Thinking about writing a simple gui app in #PowerShell.

    #Winforms looks like it's not too hard to pick up, but lots of people are pushing #WPF.

    All the scaffolding and setup for WPF is turning me off (as is the XML they couldn't even just call XML but had to add a letter?)

    I suppose if I was using a heavy ide that did the scaffolding stuff for me... But then that's more stuff to break?

    All I just being ' get off my lawn ' here?
