What's a static abstract interface method in C#?
What are static abstract members (new in C# 11), what can we do with them, and how are they related to Math Generics? (part 1 of 3)

What's the point of points in scrum?
Points aren't hours, but they sorta represent hours. Or do they? 🤔 If you're as perplexed as I used to be, here's a few thoughts about points.
TWIL vol.6 (GitHub, 2FA... and lunar standard time?)
This week I learned that GitHub wasn't requiring 2FA yet (but will soon), and the moon may need its own timezones (to the dismay of devs everywhere).
TWIL vol.5 (InstallShield is as fun as Crystal; Cloudflare lives at 1.1.1.1)
This week I learned more about InstallShield, a Cloudflare service for families, and that email filters can be too aggressive.
TWIL vol.4 (blocklists and APIs, encoding vs encryption, and does AI have an uncanny valley?)
This week I learned about malicious site blocklists and some APIs that might be interesting to dig into, read up on encoding vs encryption, and pondered whether AI could dip into the uncanny valley.
TWIL vol.3 (.NET Framework limitations, VS2022 and legacy apps, and the default keyword)
New year, new discoveries... WinForms can be upgraded to .NET; default vs null in C#; VS 2022 won't show the Form designer in legacy apps
Why doesn't VS 2022 show my WinForms UI at design time?
Someone at work asked about whether we'd be able to use VS 2022 to work on our main WinForms app. It works just fine in VS 2019, so it should work in VS 2022, right? Except it doesn't. What we get is white screens of brokenness whenever we try to open a Form in the designer. But why?
