Yay! We've been working on this for over a year. Super excited for it to finally be in people's hands!
@david.wengier.com I cannot believe how fast hot reload is with today's v18.3.0 release of Visual Studio 2026. Thank you for all the work you did to make that happen! 🙏

So I guess cohosting is on by default now. I’m expecting a flood of bugs, but this is nice to hear too :)

Forget "delve" or the em-dash, if your project readme contains an ASCII art tree view, I'm going to assume it was at least partially written by an LLM. I don't know what project(s) they were trained on that made them think this is useful, but I don't think I've ever seen it before LLMs got here.

Anyone else getting inundated today with "Active your account" emails, for various different services and email addresses, but all coming from Zendesk software?
I always the assume the email addresses are compromised, but guessing someone found a hole in Zendesk too.

I went to the National Communications Museum, showed my kid how to use a rotary phone, and then successfully re-dialed the same number they did, but by hammering on the hang-up button the right number of times. He was pleasantly amazed.
Nice to know that's still possible sometimes.

Watching the latest season of Jet Lag, took a photo of the TV when Ben showed his hiding spot, sent the photo to copilot, asked where it was, and it looks like it got it right.
