And also, GPT-5 used by #Junie in #Rider 🤩
Note that it is still a bit tricky to install the extension, and it should be fixed for the 2025.2 release of Rider 😍

This is one of the values defined by my team and a big part of its culture!

Reminds me of some discussions with some of my team members! Then comes the question, if it were your own money, would you invest it on that?

This morning, it is raining, while we are camping, so I decided to see if I could extend my blog with a search capability using GitHub Copilot Agent and testing the implementation using Codespaces from my phone 😎 Waiting for the 🌞

Almost 🤞🏼setting a random key to see if it goes further and yes it goes one step further, so I am sure with a valid #openai key I would a #dotnet program using #CSnakes which start a #Dapr Agents sample code executing a #LLM query and using function calling... I will try with Dapr 1.16 & #Ollama
July 5, 2025 at 2:31 PM
Quite close, to run #Dapr Agents which is in Python using #CSnakes a tool for embedding Python code into #dotnet projects 🤩 I just miss an OPENAI_API_KEY

Started working yesterday with GitHub Copilot Agent to create the first version of the script from our patch checklist. It was working incredibly well. Now, adding capabilities to the script with JetBrains Junie...
July 5, 2025 at 6:52 AM
Give some time to your team members to be curious! It is paying back! My team shipped quite some features like that and also tooling to improve our daily job

I love to automate repetitive trivial things* Today I vibe coded a #powershell script to create our patch branches 🤩 We had a checklist explaining our way of doing so I pointed @github.com #copilot agent to it and it made the demanding work, now my team life is a little bit easier, even if low on 🐛
July 4, 2025 at 9:48 AM
One of my core principles!

I created the next GitHub issue from my mobile phone 🤙 from the pool ☀️😎 When I finished relaxing, I picked up my surface pro, connected to Codespaces on the PR, tested it, and accepted the PR 🤩 Magic

Today, thanks to @github.com #Copilot #Agent I extended my blog with
🫙 a dev container
🧑🏻‍✈️ some copilot instructions

And updated to the latest version of @astro.build!

Just by writing 3 GitHub issues and assigning those to Copilot. Then reviewing what it created.

That's banana 🤪

Nice new Rider 2025.2 EAP 6 feature 🤩
You can now add the name of the current Git branch to the AI Assistant Commit Message Generation prompt! Saving some time and repetitive work!

Before my breakfast, quickly drafted a GitHub issue to update the dependencies of my @astro.build blog and assigned it to @github.com Copilot Agent.
😃 Got a nice Pull Request to review after my breakfast

Quick weekend learning experiment using #csharp #dotnet 9 WPF application pushing Open Telemetry logs and metrics to .NET #aspire dashboard running in a docker container! Done in 20 minutes with some help of @jetbrains.com AI Assistant.
