Thrilled to share that I've just completed the "Blazor From Start to Finish" course from Tim Corey!

It was a fantastic deep dive, and I'm incredibly impressed with the framework.

Looking forward to creating some exciting new projects with it!

As a consumer, my take on Apple's new CarPlay Ultra is simple: give us the choice to turn it on. Don't make it the default, but allow a toggle somewhere in settings. There's a good chance automakers will lose customers by not offering this option at all.

I've mixed feelings about the cancellation of Amazon's Wheel of Time series after 3 seasons. Showing great 3rd season improvement (Tomatometer 97%), I was curious how they'd continue the story through to the Last Battle. Alas, the Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills.

This is terrible news. @anntelnaes.bsky.social is the best editorial cartoonist in the country, and I don’t think it’s even particularly close. She’s also one of the Post’s greatest assets. https://anntelnaes.substack.com/p/why-im-quitting-the-washington-post
