- Uuuf what are you doing past Jakub? How many ifs do you need to nest to output 1 value? :D (Plus that "yeah this is just ad-hoc fold implementation, so enjoy...") #powershell
- #pspester #powershell I kicked off this draft PR that shows mock call history in Should -Invoke, let me know if you have some ideas how to make it useful. github.com/pester/Peste...
- Calling functions in #PowerShell is relatively expensive, so when you are logging debug messages you figure out once if you need to write the message (e.b. $ShouldWriteDebugLog = $true) and wrap all calls to your logging function in an if (which is cheap). But then how do you ensure you wrapped all?
- Today I spoke on WUG Admin Days about #pspester. No matter how many times I stand in front of people, my heartrate still spikes. Here is the data. Took 30 minutes to calm down somewhat: strava.app.link/hSlidCRP3Zb
- Making some fermented drinks with gingerbug. Wish me luck so they don’t explode!
- I started this poll on reddit, please answer here or there if you can. We trying to figure out what is the general awareness of what test platform people use in .NET and what are the reasons people did or did not move to MTP (microsoft.testing.platform). #dotnet www.reddit.com/r/dotnet/com...
- youtu.be/lGfyFO50ACg?... New week is here, time for some tunes to work to.
- youtu.be/JcJSW7Rprio?... Storing some data in PING, lol.
- applerankings.com I am a big Kanzi and Cosmic Crisp fan. (and also Crimson Snow they don't list)
- youtu.be/1fZTOjd_bOQ?... another great presentation to watch. Even if you are not interested in UX.

- www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYM3... watched this talk today, masterclass in how to communicate changes to software that is used by millions of users.
- I was sick whole holidays, but at least I got to finish reading this really cool looking book. Original sci-fi series from a czech author Jakub Hussar.
- Lidl sending me stats for my year of grocery shopping is hilarious. 😄 I am local legend who most often shops for bananas.
- Birds learned to visit our window during the whole summer and winter.

- Sent my proposals for #PSConfEU 2026: - Learn Pester from scratch - follow along - Pester - Deep Dive into Mocking - (Public) speaking tips every tech person should know Fingers crossed to get them accepted 🤞 Would you come to any of them? #powershell
- I just found a #powershell thing that surprised me. `-in` is not an array filter. Normally operators return bool when only one item is on the left side, but array of matching items when array is provided on the left side. so 1..10 -gt 3 returns all numbers that are greater than 3. 🧵1/2

- Calm-ish morning house mix: youtu.be/8B4soa7z098?... Just don't get stuck watching the cat go round and round if you need to work.
- Last week I did not manage to record any video, so here is second one this week. A tip on attaching debugger to the process you've just started, and easy way to re-attach to such process. One of my favorite overlooked features of VisualStudio. youtu.be/Tcz0cOHG_Zc #dotnet
- Do you know how to diagnose issues with dll loading in .NET and .NET Framework? Have you ever used FusionLogs? Do you know how to collect fusion logs in .NET? If you want to learn this video is for you: www.youtube.com/watch?v=6N_V... #dotnet
- Getting ready for our last .NET meetup Prague of the year. This time with a holiday vibe! #dotnet aka.ms/DotnetMeetup...
- Debugging vstest / #dotnet test / Microsoft.Testing.Platform performance on Windows? Here is how you do that with PerfView: github.com/microsoft/te...
- All the talks from #dotnet conf 2025 are available on youtube, if you feel like learning this weekend (or next week). Among them the one on dotnet test, mstest and microsoft.testing.platform, from yours truly! www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWi_...
- Paint, snipping tool, and Power Point are my graphics designer tools. How does one start with Figma? Do I just watch youtube tutorials?
- Seen this tip yesterday on Reddit, and it was immediately useful when #strava today switched to miles for no reason. You can use Fibonacci numbers as miles to kilometers conversion: 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34 3 miles ~= 5 km
- I just realized that I have absolutely no idea what my Windows password is. I guess the no-password movement was successful!
- Let me invite you to our last #dotnet Meetup this year. We have 3 great talks prepared for you, and of course food. 📍 Microsoft Office (Delta Building, Vyskočilova 1561/4a, Prague 4) 📅 Monday, December 8, 2025 🕗 5.30pm - 9.00pm English, Free entry www.meetup.com/microsoft-ev...
- After getting some nice feedback on my first video, here is another tip for Visual Studio, function breakpoints #dotnet youtu.be/G5G5wo5poWA
- 21:42 (4:20min/km) 5k personal best, but the style was terrible. Fast run. 10s walking. Fast run. 10s walking.
- Was challenged to make youtube video. Not sure why I am so nervous about it, I am not stranger to speaking publicly :D So here is little tip on debugging #dotnet and other executables in #visualstudio :) www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFbT...
- 3am and I can’t sleep. Watching Steven Toub’s talk on #dotnet performance youtu.be/snnULnTWcNM?... And now I’d rather sit at computer and try some of these things out. I should have chosen something that is more boring.
- I am excited for #dotnetconf, I've secured a spot for a talk and will show the best new things in #dotnet test and #mstest. Hope that you join me to see the cool stuff we've been working on throughout the past year. (It is on day 2).

- I’ve just crossed 1000km for running on Strava.
- After the ultra hot half-marathon race last week I tried in a more reasonable weather and set a new PB. It even surprised me, I was hoping for 1:45, but was able to speed up and sustain the faster pace in the second half of the run.
