Revisiting Av1
AV1 on FFMpeg isn’t so bad now!
We’re moving a client to Azure from on premises and there were some performance hurdles.
They weren’t unexpected, and nearly all of them were database related.
.NET 5 was released recently, with boatloads of goodies.
Blazor got some attention in this release, and I had some free time to play with it.
There’s good news and bad news…
Semi-recently, we moved a client from On Premises to Azure with the promise that it’d be better.
While generally true, lately we’ve been getting reports of performance issues…
Previously, I did some performance investigations in Azure. The cause remains elusive, so I’ve started looking into caching, most interestingly caching Mediatr Query results.
System.Text.Json was released with dotnetcore 3 in 2019, and has been improved in NET 5.
After recently upgrading this project to dotnetcore 5 (which was much easier than the linked upgrade to dotnetcore 3…), I was curious to see what the migration path looked like for a real project.
Some Blender tips and tricks that I’ve built up over my short time, so saving them here so I don’t forget them :D
This will keep being updated as I think of them.
I work in Managed Services, and we end up with a lot of projects on different versions of things (node, packages, dotnet, etc)
So I want to get a full stack project with good F5 debugging experience and easy onboarding that can run without those dependencies!
I succeeded! Kinda…
I recently upgraded a project from NET 4.8 to NET 6, and the most interesting parts were Autofac to MS DI, Auth, and the Windows Service.
It went fairly well!
I often use the Android Emulator to do testing on a Xamarin Forms app, or Cordova, or something of the sort.
It’s a long round trip to point at test when you want to debug the backend behaviour, so let’s point it at local dev!
