JetBrains rewrote dotMemory & dotTrace with Avalonia!

From WPF to cross-platform - now their profilers run natively on Mac & Linux.

Even JetBrains knows Avalonia is the future of .NET desktop development.

The upcoming release of #dotnet 10 comes with built-in passkey support. Had good fun digging into the new #Blazor project template and how it adds secure authentication using passkeys.

A tariff on movies is a tariff on software. Nobody moves rolls of film copies around anymore. That's a very slippery slope to step onto.
President Trump said Monday that he would impose a 100 percent tariff on foreign movies.

It is unclear when any of the tariffs would take effect, what specific goods they would apply to, and what legal authorities Trump would rely upon in imposing them.
Trump repeats threat to tax foreign films, suggests move on furniture imports
Trump’s latest tariff threats target foreign movies and furniture imports, citing national security concerns and alleged theft of the U.S. movie-making business.

Google stays losing lawsuits. Besides being declared a monopoly in both search and ads after losing both cases, they’ve now lost an appeal that will force opening up the Google Play store in the US.

They will need to allow rival app stores on Android and no longer require taking a 30% cut of sales
Epic just won its Google lawsuit again, and Android may never be the same
It may be open season on Google Play.
