techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/mvp-blo... - #MVPBuzz is bragging about #NebraskaCode. I got quoted! It's such a fun conference. There's even a picture of the Adam Barney plushy.

Count vs IsEmpty can be the difference between fast code and a performance disaster.
For some immutable and concurrent collections, the wrong choice is tens of thousands of times slower.

HTTP/3 is the newest HTTP version in .NET—but is it always the fastest? Not so fast.
I benchmarked HTTP/1.1, HTTP/2, and HTTP/3 across real scenarios, and the results might surprise you.

This weekend I learned you can use the #Windows11 Installation Assistant to upgrade Insider Previews from 25H2 to 26H2. When WU "sticks" on me afterward, I recall "Just because you can, doesn't mean you should." #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz www.edtittel.com/blog/26h2-in...

And now with more features! timelines to show how a definition has changed over time. e.g lz-diff-reports.liasis.dev/timelines/al... shows what changed, and in which release "Enforce Azure Compute Security Benchmark compliance auditing" was updated

Gosh! I thought Installation Assistant didn't/wouldn't upgrade Beta or Insider Preview channels from 25H2 to 26H2. I wuz wrong: deets follow. #WindowsInsiders #MVPbuzz www.edtittel.com/blog/updated...
