I have a small child. I hear "this" or "that" all day and 99% of the time I have no idea what he is talking about. He uses "this" or "that" when he doesn't know the word for the thing, which is often. He is unable to resolve or define pointers so he always passes "this" by reference hoping I can resolve null pointers to an object.
All renewals have gone through for 2022 (WP, GD hosting + SSL); I'll have the website project retargeted to Framework 4.8 (the latest GD is hosting) and deployed this week. Somehow had lost my domain admin pwd (4.8 wasn't even installed) so rebuilt dev env last weekend. Db will likely need to remain a manual deploy, since the generated script needs permissions that aren't granted on the GD host.
Been working on the website again lately. Not quite ready to deploy yet, but I implemented a webhook controller in the API layer that can handle GitHub "push" payloads to automatically process xmldocs on a new tag. I'm getting my evenings back!
I miss y'all so much! Rubberduck isn't dead, but I've (predictably) burned out and needed to take some time away (not just from RD) for a while. I'm sorry I've let you (and our users & fans) down and in the dark, I'm alive & well and will be resuming RD and blogging as soon as some renovations here get finished and my home office is set up - couple of weeks, should be ok for Hacktoberfest =)
@MathieuGuindon @IvenBach Congratulations, victory is yours. I'm eliminating all of my Hungarian notation. Visual Studio is excellent. Being able to hover on any variable and see its defined type/the excellent code inspections were exactly what I needed to feel comfortable switching away from Hungarian.
I haven't pushed anything yet, but I'll have an update for the website soon; I'm moving all the database and GitHub interactions to a web api, so the website project itself will not need any api keys or connection strings. So far got endpoints for the indenter, fetching tags and xml assets, getting the inspection defaults config, and CRUD operations on everything in the database. The logic that parses xmldocs is also moving to a service library that's part of the public solution.
Maybe people will start to learn that everything online all the time isn't always the best option... (only took about 10 retrys to post that message...)
Btw, I really do not like these viral license restrictions. So, for the record, should we ever consider to (re-)license part of RD's code base under a license like MIT or downward compatible, consider this my approval for my contributions to RD.
I've just started to use Rubberduck. I would like to say to authors (Mathieu?) THANK YOU SO MUCH! My code isn't optimal yet, but it is A LOT better after reading messages in Code Inspections menu
