A bit of an different lunchtime activity today - Thanks Jennings for the annual BBQ and Clive Jones for the falconry display

That feeling when you first discovered `document.designMode`

I'm talking about how to store secrets in Azure KeyVault as well as how to use it for encryption and signing Azure Oxford tonight. Mostly live coding - come see if it goes wrong :)

💚 A lovely, windy 10 mile walk today around the countryside in Shropshire. We’re now chilling in the lounge in our pyjamas and round the fire, doing jigsaws, games and watching the #SixNations2020 Happy days ☺️

COVID-19 has gone down due to the efforts of everyone but is still in general circulation. If we do not follow social distancing guidance then cases will rise again. Naturally people will want to enjoy the sun but we need to do so in a way that is safe for all.

Fancy working with us? We've got a great opportunity for a mid-level developer looking to advance their career in a smart, friendly and tech-obsessed team. neworbit.co.uk/careers/#modal…

👯‍♀️ I met my best friends through @UKScouting and Girlguiding as it’s so strong in my community!! Here’s all of us at our Christmas Party last year 🎄💚💙 #InternationalFriendshipDay

👫 #InternationalFriendshipDay Here’s some of my favourite group shots of all of us 😂 👞 Staffordshire Winter Walking Weekend 🎄 Christmas Party 🌅 Evening walk to Ivinghoe Beacon 🎲 London Monopoly Run

Can we stop all this ‘Christmas is cancelled’ stuff please? It’s spoiling Christmas.

It's Friday again! For today's #TechTalkFriday Kelvin Stott will be covering #Formik (created by Formium) and how easy it makes building and developing forms

VS Code devcontainers are just soooo cool. Get started: channel9.msdn.com/Series/Beginne… Then start doing really powerful stuff like github.com/microsoft/vsco… code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/co… and blog.johnnyreilly.com/2021/05/15/azu…

Pondering whether to use HashiCorp Terraform, Pulumi, Bicep or Farmer for deploying to Microsoft Azure? Paul Stack, Dan Clarke 🎙, Isaac Abraham, @rubberduckdev and I will compare and contrast them at developerday - if you vote for our talk :) developerdeveloperdeveloper.com/sessions #iac

I started The #UnhandledException podcast last year, and it's been so amazing chatting and geeking out with so many awesome people! Could I ask a huge favour? Could you help me spread the word with a cheeky retweet? And tell work colleagues about the show? Pretty please 😊

It's #TechTalkFriday! Kelvin Stott took the helm and led a session on best practices for setting up #AzureArchitecture and #AzureNetworking to maximise security and performance 🌟

Super sad I can no longer go to the first .NET Oxford in-person meetup for years: meetup.com/dotnetoxford/e… Go if you can, it's a great community that will welcome you. And Kelvin Stott will be talking about VS Code!

One top tip re devcontainers on Windows we learned the hard way: Use WSL 2 (not 1!) and put your files in a native Linux folder - i.e. don't put it on C: and don't use the folder inside WSL that maps to a windows drive. There is a *huge* performance difference.

.NET Oxford is back... IN PERSON!🥳 There's loads of great talks planned, even a double-dose from our team... Kelvin Stott is exploring VS Code as an IDE and https://bsky.app/profile/frans.lytzen.name is sharing tips to avoid encryption mistakes in C#. See you there!: meetup.com/dotnetoxford/e…

The next .NET Oxford video from last week's lightning talk session was from Kelvin Stott entitled "Using VSCode as your main IDE" 🙈 youtu.be/n_sQghDF63E

We encountered an interesting problem with a #CosmosDB Partition key strategy. Our colleague Tom Hyde takes a deep dive into how we resolved it and the lessons learnt 🔎 neworbit.co.uk/partition-key-…
