macos visual studio is just xamarin studio/monodevelop with a fresh paint job. at this very moment i am clearing 83 notifications that the MSBuild:UpdateDesignTimeXaml code generator has crashed

vs code on macos is actually a pretty good c# experience, but it's probably useless if you're doing xamarin and not asp.net.

every time someone says this it's guaranteed that they're trying to use osx like it's win95 with the dock as the taskbar and minimizing apps and whatever

if you aren't using workspaces and keeping the dock hidden 99.9999999% of the time you are doing it wrong

"We have this notion that if you're poor, you cannot do it. Poor kids are just as bright and just as talented as white kids."

"Wealthy kids, black kids, Asian kids -- no, I really mean it." Biden said.

I like how...


...sometimes when I click a dock icon it does nothing, even though the application is running. Just show me the drat window! I don't want to have to right click and "show all windows" to see it.
