The SgmlReader NuGet package for #dotnet is a less known but great alternative to AngleSharp or HtmlAgilityPack if you need to parse HTML. It converts (almost) any HTML to valid XML that you can then query or manipulate with the well-known XmlDocument class.

Hey #ios devs, would it still be possible to perform this kind of trick today (in Swift and/or Objective-C)? Weak importing a class and then replacing a method implementation with swizzling.

I just contributed a new feature to https://github.com/AArnott/Xunit.SkippableFact

You can now skip tests based on the [SupportedOSPlatform] attribute, which can greatly simplify the implementation of your tests.

Here's an example of what it looks like in real life, both skipping tests on unsupported platforms and supressing the CA1416 warning (platform compatibility) https://github.com/MarkusPalcer/blurhash.net/pull/28/files#diff-3ff14083a8c6bd8465641150de0c2df6895ec2e920f578589dc4061e985241ed

I finally figured out how to use the System.DirectoryServices.Protocols #dotnet package to perform LDAP queries with Kerberos authentication on macOS. In the end the workaround is very simple but it was a hell of a ride! https://github.com/dotnet/runtime/issues/109449

Answering Stack Overflow questions 15 years later.

C# non-boxing conversion of generic enum to int?

https://stackoverflow.com/a/79136770/21698

There are so many of these questions that can be answered a decade later with "just use this, which is now part of the language or the standard library".

It's puzzling that running #dotnet scripts (csx files) requires the dotnet-script global tool which is a community effort. I'd expect this feature to be provided out of the box, something like dotnet run myscript.csx or ./myscript.csx after installing the dotnet runtime.
