You can probably use something like

git clean -xdf

To get rid of all the artifacts not tracked by git, in this case it’s virtually the same as deleting the repo and re-cloning it.

NOTE: Make sure everyhing is staged, otherwise that data is gone

WTF is wrong with you people? All this effort just to be a dick.

Indeed, I’d just like to remind people of the left-pad incident

Yes absolutely

.NET has been around for two decades. It’s a well established technology with plenty of resources, documentation and libraries and frameworks. I guess these are in part the reason it’s still thriving.

You’re thinking about .NET Framework reading your opinions on it, .NET (Microsoft is terrible at naming) is the “newest” standard and it’s fully open source and cross platform. They removed Windows only APIs and embraced the open source way.

While Microsoft is indeed full of shit they did a great move with .NET in the last 10 years.

You don’t even need Visual Studio, I use Rider for instance and I love it! I cannot stand Visual Studio either, mostly because I hate its UI/UX.

At the end of the day is matter of preferences, I like .NET and C# and I work with these technologies daily for instance.

The fine line between ssh and lsd

That’s passion my friend! Don’t underestimate it as just stubbornness

Some people simply ignore warnings, that’s the main issue. Trust me, I saw this way too often.

If you cannot compile it than you have to fix it, otherwise just mark unused variables as ‘not an error’ via _ = someunusedvar.

Similarly, you can leverage this to wire traffic to DB replicas for instance. This if you need to handle traffic to DBs under specific scenarios (DB problems, burst of traffic, bugs, etc). So basically a purely technical feature flag (paying attention to authorization as always)

This is always relevant
