New in .NET 9: The ReadOnlySet<T> Collection .NET 9 introduces the ReadOnlySet<T>—a powerful addition for working with immutable sets in a highly efficient way. Unlike HashSet<T>, which is mutable, ReadOnlySet<T> provides an immutable set, ensuring that once created, the collection cannot be modified. This feature is perfect for scenarios where data integrity and thread-safety are essential, especially when dealing with shared collections across different components. ✅ Immutability: Once a ReadOnlySet<T> is created, it cannot be altered, ensuring no accidental modifications. ✅ Optimized Set Operations: Perform set operations like union, intersection, and more, but they return new instances instead of modifying the original. ✅ Thread-Safety: Ideal for multi-threaded environments, as it ensures that no data mutations can occur. #DotNet9 #CSharp #Immutability #ReadOnlySet #SoftwareEngineering #DotNetDevelopment #CSharpDevelopment #SetOperations #ThreadSafety #CleanCode #LearnWithA

Virtual Machine (VM) Files Overview VM File Components: 1. Configuration files 2. Virtual disk files 3. Snapshot files 4. Log files 5. Lock files 6. Swap files 7. Suspension files File Types and Purposes: 1. .vmx: VM configuration file 2. .vmdk: Virtual disk file 3. -flat.vmdk: Virtual disk flat file 4. .vswp: Virtual swap file 5. .vmss: Virtual machine suspended file 6. .vmsn: Snapshot data file 7. .vmem: Snapshot paging file 8. .vmsd: Snapshot descriptor file 9. .log: VM log file 10. .nvram: Non-volatile RAM file 11. .lck: Lock file 12. -rdm.vmdk: Raw disk mapping file (virtual compatibility mode) 13. -rdmp.vmdk: Raw disk mapping file (physical compatibility mode) File Creation Points: 1. VM creation 2. Power-on 3. Suspension 4. Snapshot creation 5. Log archiving Transient Files: 1. .vswp (deleted when VM is powered off) 2. .vmx.lck (deleted when VM is powered off) Persistent Files: 1. .vmx 2. .vmdk 3. .log 4. .nvram Understanding these VM files helps troubleshoot common issues and resolve problems efficiently. 🔁 Please consider sharing this post if you find it helpful.

A minor milestone: my OSS nuget package SKPromptGenerator (.NET source generator for strongly-typed LLM prompts for use with Semantic Kernel) has crossed 1000 downloads 🎉 If you're working with Microsoft #SemanticKernel, #LLMs, and #dotnet, check out the repo and see if it can simplify your code: https://lnkd.in/g-y8mEzR

I recently finished #dataviz below using D3.js. Although "finished" is a bit of a misstatement. I'd like to add a second graph and have transitions between them. It's those transitions (as well as the precision) that makes D3 so cool. I'm thinking about building a workshop around D3 for R Users someday. It makes it a lot easier when you understand how to build smaller functions at a time and call upon them using the r2d3 package.

#semaphore #semaphoreSlim SemaphoreSlim is a bit heavy and has few customization options; if you are looking for a faster tools with less memory consumption, the #AsyncKeyedLock library is more useful. https://lnkd.in/g4s37XVG

Conditional Access for Applications

Technolutions Slate users, do you notice platform latency? Rules not executing in fifteen minutes or less? It's time to utilize the "Check Rules" function. https://shorturl.at/hluGJ This tool will determine how long each rule takes to run and will alert you if the rule has custom SQL. If any of your Rules are failing, go a step further and check the Rule Log to view any errors. You can also create a new Query on a Rule and explore filter changes to improve efficiency. #wb52tips #SlateCRM #emchat

💡As you may know #FSLogix dynamically expanding disks do not natively shrink when the volume of data within them reduces, they stay at the 'High water mark' of historical data volume within them. 🗜️For a while FSLogix with #AzureVirtualDesktop ( #AVD ) has had a way to automatically compress the VHDX files and reclaim the space. But what if you want to do it , on-demand programmatically instead of waiting for each user to have logged off at least once? And perhaps rely on the #FSLogix disk compression feature after that? Jagmeet Singh has written a script that can help you do that. Get it here: https://lnkd.in/erTgUMjE
