it's not live to you, but it's live for us.
Speaker 2: It turns out every time we record it's live.
Speaker 1: We used to say that at the beginning.
Speaker 3: From dot net rocks, what's the what's the alternative dead Dead?
From dot com? It's Do Not Resuscitate otherwise known as DNR. Okay, well,
it's dot ne rocks where build. We just got out
of the keynote and Scott Hunter shows up and we're
going to have a conversation.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I bet we will.
Speaker 1: And before we talk to Scott, we have to do
a little thing about what happened in nineteen fifty three. Yeah,
because this is show nineteen fifty three. Scott, you're welcome
to join us, dive in on this, Yeah, if you want, sure, So,
Mount Everest Sir Edmund Hillary have Tensing Norgay, who is
his sherpa. Right, Ye became the first people to reach
the summit of Mount Everest on May twenty ninth. You
kind of went up Mount Everest.
Speaker 2: I went to base camp, went to the bottom of Everest, Yeah,
which is the same altitude as the top of Kills.
Speaker 1: Also and Fuji, I have done Mount Gratton, which is inton.
It's basically a recycling pile that I walked to the
top of and is twenty feet all right.
Speaker 2: Okay, but that's the thing that kills you after doing Kelly.
Then you go to beverstpace camps, like I am at
the bottom of this mountain and I feel like I
felt getting to the top of a chilly yeah Fortal.
Speaker 4: It's crazy that you, you know, you people go to
a base camp at Everest and stay there for a
couple of weeks to acclimate before they go all the
way up. So it's like, you know, for Killy, we
didn't really do much a lot of acclamation a little bit,
a little bit, yeah, but you told me.
Speaker 1: I think that the grade for Fuji and for Killy
is a little more easy to traverse, whereas Everest is
kind of a steeper grade.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't know. It was very gradual getting to
the base camp. I didn't go past that. But there's
a bunch of different routes on Killimanjero and I think
you did. You did the sixth day route too, didn't you.
I did, and that has more acclamation time, which is
actually important. They say, if you do the sixth day route,
it's like a ninety percent summit, but if you do
the four day route, it's like a fifty percent Summit's
you just pushing your body too hard?
Speaker 1: All right? Well? The Korean War officially ended in nineteen
fifty three an Armis disagreement signed on July twenty seventh.
DNA was discovered by James Watson and Francis Crick, building
on Rosalind Franklin's work. I don't think there's a relation.
According to King's College, London, Joseph Stalin died on March fifth.
Dwight D. Eisenhower was sworn in as President of the
United States on January twentyeth Queen Elizabeth iiO Is crowned
on June second. Jesus A good year, yeah, and some
tech advancements, Richard, I'm sure we'll have more. But the
US detonated the first thermo nuclear device code named Mike. Yeah,
in the Central Pacific Ocean. I know Mike, who was
like a thermonuclear device.
Speaker 2: Yeah. The big one is IBM's six fifty, which was
the sort of first mass produced computer. So we're finally
you know, up until then, every computer was bespoke. Yeah, right,
they were calm built. You know. I told that story
about when they built that the first that first machine,
and the Census bought it, but then they wouldn't give
it to them because they didn't were afraid to take
it apart. Right, So yeah, the six fifty was the
first sort of reliable, rebuildable computer that they've asked.
Speaker 1: All right, well that's just a few things that happened.
But geez, what a year.
Speaker 2: Yeah, ninety fifty three important year knowing about.
Speaker 1: It all right? Well, as I said, Scott Hunter is
here and we have to do a thing first called
better no Framework roll the crazy music. Awesome what he
got Our friend Simon Krawn, of course, he is a
font of good stuff. He finds things. He's part of
the app and X team. Also he's helped me out
with some of my GitHub projects and just a great guy.
So he's created z link z l huge his project.
Oh no, it's not his project. He found it and yeah,
so he found it and shared it with me. It's
a zero allocation link library for dot net. What does
that mean, Well, allocation, zero allocations means you don't create
anything on the heap, right, you don't create anything that
needs to be garbage collected. So that's a good thing.
And I was talking to my buddy Scott before you
got here, Richard, about zero allocation. And it turns out
a lot of the optimizations in dot net have been
because of zero allocation.
Speaker 2: That's been very much a move, right. I mentioned a
lot of the work they did in that exotic version
of Polly, which about minimizing allocation.
Speaker 1: Right, and so then we got talking about ring buffers,
which is.
Speaker 4: I was going to say, yeah, Kestrel and dot Net.
We were actually sitting in a room and building forty
four one day and we're trying to figure out, obviously,
how do we make the web server, you know, allocate less, Yeah,
because that's the you know, the negative of garbage collection
is if you allocate a lot of memory, well, the
garbage collector has to go work in the background to
go get rid of that memory, and that's going to
burn CPU and that's going to slow things down. And
so we were trying to find you know, a lot
of the early optimizations in dot net the dotin corbets
were how do we reduce the allocations that we're making
in the first place. And so one idea was, hey,
the webserver is always turning through requests. Let's just put
a ring buffer inside of there, and then we're not
allocating at all, we're just reusing memory.
Speaker 1: What's a ring buffer?
Speaker 4: Actually, I just think it's think think of it like this,
a big circle of memory. And what you do is
instead of allocating memory, you just keep reusing some part
of that that buffer again and again and again, going around.
You know, as as things are done, they fall off
the end. And but a big chunk of kestrel is
basically first buffering a big ring q if you think
about it like that way. And when we first did it,
we were using you know, uh unsafe sea sharp to
do that because it's just memory and pointers and stuff
like that. And we actually added features to c sharp
later they got.
Speaker 2: Remember remember memory created a whole framework to make it
safe so we didn't have to do that sort of thing. Yes,
and then he did it inside of it anyway. Anyways,
that's clever.
Speaker 4: But but then we put the sea sharp features in
so we could go get rid of all that stupid
stuff that we were doing. Anyways, So as.
Speaker 1: It turns out, you know, uh remember I don't know
if you remember this or if you were with dot
net Rocks back then, but Chris Sells Richard uh talked
about how he wanted to bring reference counting back into
dot net. It was the early days, and uh, you know, yeah,
he was used to reference counting in Calm, and you know,
he had control over what happened and what got deallocated
and when I think it was when he did that
whole thing gets ten Yeah, disposed and I disposable and
all that. Yeah, but his sense man in that crusade,
of course, we went into lake.
Speaker 4: I was say, reference counting. Oh my gosh, I mean
technically the garbage collector is doing that. You just don't
have to see it. So it's like it is reference
counting behind the scenes. You just don't else how would
it work. Yeah, some are it has to go. Nobody's
using this anymore. Yeah, I can now get rid of it.
Speaker 2: And there was a there was a bake off in
the early version of dot net between a reference counted
implementation and the garbage collecting implementation. Patrick Dessaud did the
the the garbage collected version and kicked But yeah, it
was Admittedly the guy had an advantage because he'd done
the Microsoft imilmentation of the JAVM, like he knew that
cold and got to do it all from scratch. Like,
I don't think we can underestimate the number of benefits
that dot net had from having folks from deeply familiar
with JABA to say, hey, we're going to do generics right,
we're going to do the type system right, and we're
going to do garbage collection right.
Speaker 4: Yeah, people forget that. You know, visual j plus plus
was a thing, was it that Patrick worked on, Andrews
Halsberg worked on, and so literally, you know what we
call net today is kind of a fork of that
thing with the different language, but it's got the same
garbage collector and all that stuff. And that's where that
I'm sure that's where Patrick brought the garbage collector from.
Speaker 2: It, even if he started from scratch it. You know,
it doesn't matter. He had it in his head, he
thought about it, and implemented more than arguably anybody else
in the world at that time.
Speaker 1: I remember when Microsoft killed Visual j plus plus, and
I can't remember who it was, and I probably wouldn't
want to say their name anyway, but I said, hey,
why don't you guys killed j plus plus? He said,
we kept getting sued.
Speaker 4: We sort of deserve to get sued in this particular case.
So you know, we we The reason we got sued
was because we had built a JVM, and we added
features to our JVM that were not standard Java features.
The problem is because because we have an operating system
that's installed on a billion machines, our JVM with its
non compliant features, is suddenly on everybody's Every Windows device
in fact, is there. And so in those features, those features,
commonly enough are are super important.
Speaker 2: C sharp features.
Speaker 4: There's delegates were one of those features. And UH the
father of of p and voke which probably I think
it was called jada rec back then. UH, And and
so those features. Anders put those features in as he
was building. UH, basically the father of of UH wind forms.
Speaker 2: The way I've heard it described is with it. So
I think Silverburg is quoted as saying this, it's like
the day that Sun and Microsoft signed that agreement, both
companies were in violation of it, and it just continued
from there. He that he, you know, through pure force
of will, and whatever I've seen of Silverberg lots force
of will. He got both parties to the table to
sign that thing. But he doesn't mean he was going
to change their personalities. There's only so much you could do,
and so at some point they just had to call
the ball on this. It's like, look, this is not
what the intent was. You got to stop.
Speaker 1: Well, it sounds like we're starting the show, but we're
really still in the preheader, so I think it's your turn.
You need to tell us.
Speaker 2: Read a comment. Yeah, I got to comment off the
show nineteen thirty eight when we did with Frank Suadengue
and Sasha talking about the new version of Uno. Yeah,
because it's a great comment, which which is from Fabian
Hugil who said, I really liked that Carl relativized good word.
I like that hot design and hot reload at some
point I have had that. I have had very similar
experiences a visual designer just cannot match what a scene
graph based UI can do, you know, like HTML, like
you know said it. So for every non trivial UI
you will eventually write some zammal code and as to
hot reload, yeah, it's fancy, but even for non UI
dot net assemblies, it often fails for even not too
large changes. I mean this is a challenge long reload.
You can only do a little fudge before it's like, dude,
you need to compile, Like sorry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you need to stop and run again. But fabe
my experience. Yeah sure, yeah.
Speaker 2: Fabian goes to say, you know, I never really use
it and I don't miss it, which is interesting. I mean,
we put a lot of hype around hot reload, but
it's like, if you've got a workflow that works for you,
you don't have to go further than you know where hot.
Speaker 1: Reload works best if you're changing CSS.
Speaker 2: Yeah, tweaking, tweaking all that little fence posty stuff.
Speaker 1: Change one line of code.
Speaker 2: Oh no, it's time to read about yeah.
Speaker 4: Usually, Yeah, we just haven't done enough work to make
we can make hot reload better. It's just not good
enough yet. So it's we had a huge effort, uh
that we went. We first put it in the in
the product, and then we kind of got busy with
other stuff and it hasn't had enough love recently.
Speaker 2: It's got to go back into the looping. It needs
to go back in the loop. Bitt ten maybe so Fabian,
thank you so much. You're commented. A copy of music
co By is on its way to you. And if
you'd like a copy of music, go buy. I write
a comment on the website at dot net rocks dot
com or on the books. We publish every show there
and if you comment there and I read all the show,
we'll sign your copy of Music to Koba.
Speaker 1: And as Richard mentioned, music to Koba is still going strong.
Music to code by dot Net We're up to twenty
two tracks and you can get the entire collection in
MP three, flak or wave format. And oh my god,
it's Scott Hunter.
Speaker 2: Surely me.
Speaker 1: I'm going to introduce him for real. He is still
the vice president of product for Azure Development Experience and
builds all the tools dot net tools for Azure. Yeah,
that's absolutely I love that. I would love to be
able to get to that kind of bio someday, you know.
Speaker 2: Just does all the things I do the things with
the stuff, all the.
Speaker 1: Things with the stuff.
Speaker 4: You just if you work at the same company for
like eighteen years, this is what happens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the the title gets shorter.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you touch all the different parts of you know,
the Microsoft ecosystem over that time.
Speaker 1: But getting back to what we were talking about zero allocations,
it's not just Kestrel, but every genera, every version of
dot necor dot nine and now ten before that seems
just to be getting faster, less memory consumption and more scalable.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I was one of the cool features that you know,
we talked about the garbage collector Collector earlier and uh,
one of the coolest garbage culcture features that we've done recently,
and I think it just went under the radar. Nobody
even thinks about this is we had some I remember
we had a couple of customers and they were comparing
dot net to go and Rust and I think we
were winning on the performance side of it. We were
you know, uh and those things, but they were complaining
about the memory we used, right, and uh, we if
one of these benchmarks we had and we looked and
we saw that we were using roughly twice the memory
that Go and Rust were using, and at the time
we we didn't have We didn't really go think a
lot about it. We were busy with other stuff. But uh, it.
Speaker 1: Was was that a real test? I mean, was it
a test of just loading it up and seeing what
the memory usage is or over time after after three
hours of use? You know?
Speaker 4: So I don't remember the exact details.
Speaker 2: It was.
Speaker 4: It was the customer that brought their own benchmarks in
and they'd run their own benchmarks, and then we said, hey,
can we see your benchmarks?
Speaker 2: And you bring up a great point though, carcas One
of the things when I did a lot of load
testing back in the day with dot net websites especially,
you needed several hours for the garbage collector to mature, right,
You have to have pushed enough pages through and so forth,
and filled memory up and had done a couple of
second gen garbage collects before you even really knew what
a site's going to look like. You could fool yourself
on a fresh start with empty memory and run a
quick benchmark and go, all this stuff looks great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, like dot Net could have been pre allocating memory
that it might have needed later and Go or Rust
might have not and so you have to look at
it after you.
Speaker 4: That's that's that's actual we found was we have a
week what I you know, Mami might kill me. Whatever
termatics made up, but it's I call it a greedy,
greedy garbage collector.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 4: Hey, you know when when you when you boot the
app up, the garbage colector goes how much memory does
the machine have? I'm gonna go grab.
Speaker 2: All that stuff?
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, And that was the exact thing that the
benchmarks these companies brought to us were showing was basically,
we weren't using all that memory.
Speaker 2: No, we were just getting ready just in case you
needed We were.
Speaker 4: Getting ready in case you needed it. And then in
dotten at eight, that's where we put this behind the
feature flag, a new mode where the garbage clutter is
not greedy, right, And so basically we're going to start
with a little bit of memory and we'll allocate more
memory as as necessary.
Speaker 2: And and you're referring to Maoni Stevens, I think the
new Patrick, who was the new Patrick decide I've had
conversations with that woman. That's one of the most remarkable
minds I've and a company full of remarkable minds. Holy
man just thinks on a different level.
Speaker 4: She knows more about garbage collectors than you and I
would ever know in our entire life.
Speaker 2: Richards and prest I am staggered.
Speaker 1: Staggered, that's so much to be scared.
Speaker 2: It's just ex shredded. But again, what a specialist.
Speaker 4: And you know Patrick still came in after he retired
and still still comes in and talks to Myoni and
stuff like that. And and uh, because I'm sure he
still has ideas too, and I'm sure they bouncedid these.
I would love to see one of those conversations because
I wouldn't understand.
Speaker 2: Any of it. You just sort of stare in awe, but.
Speaker 4: Uh, you know, it's amazing. But she she built a
new feature which is the one where we don't have
the greedy allocation, and we put it in eight, but
it was off behind a feature flag because before we
actually put it put it on on for default, we
wanted to actually run a bunch of the services we
run inside of Microsoft a while. So let's let's go
run a whole bunch of the M three sixty five
back end on this on this technology, uh, in this
new mode and we'll get all the bugs figured out
inside of Microsoft.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't have messed with metrics just because it's calucating
memory different and then showing how it's memory with nine
it's on by default. Okay, so turned out to be
non event.
Speaker 4: I'm sure we fix bugs. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But you know what, though, I would almost want the
pre allocation because it's going to be faster to allocate
memory when it needs it to just use it.
Speaker 4: The uh I think the scenario that you want the
non greedy ones. Are you running on like an IoT device? Yeah, okay,
if you're running on something constrained. So in this case,
the customers was running vms. It makes no sense to
me anyways. So I think the vms are like sixty
four megah this day and age sixty four megs snooze.
My kids don't even know what megs are. They start
with gigs yeaheah.
Speaker 1: So it's like, uh, well, and that brings up another thing.
Could there be a configuration that says, you know, what
percent of available memory should the garbage collector start with?
Speaker 4: There might be a setting for that somewhere in the system.
I have no idea. There's there's probably a whole bunch
of feature flags on the on the on the GC
that are way beyond as.
Speaker 1: Long as this sign the registry, and we should.
Speaker 4: Well, nipcore can't use the registry because it runs on
non Windows offerating system. So we, uh, we left that
building behind, thank you. We should talk about coding agents, Carl, I.
Speaker 2: Know we should, totally should, but we just streshed out
of the keynote. Yeah, and I gotta say, you know,
somebody's asked you, so what do you think it is?
I think Microsoft's doing what Microsoft's best, which is building
tools so the rest of us can take advantage of
the new capabilities. And what was this hour and a half,
but check out the new tools.
Speaker 1: And one thing that we were talking about before we
started recording was it was almost a little what was
the word that I used, like it was not confusing,
but it made it look simpler than it was because
basically it just looked like the demos where people clicking
things and typing a sentence and pressing buttons and boom,
everything's there. But you know, at least I know that
it can be that simple if I know what I'm doing, right,
So I didn't understand it misleading, I think was the word.
I didn't understand it. I couldn't if you asked me
to reproduce any of those demos right now, there's no
I wouldn't even know where to start. I don't even
know what in my company, which copilot tool I should
use to start. So I'm a little confused.
Speaker 4: I can try to help, but I will tell you.
Even you know, Sam Altman, who saw you brought in
for a little bit, yeah, kind of was kind of
talking about you know, the problem with AI to day
is if you're using chat GPT, Oh, there's a screen
full of models, and then there's there's an even an
item called more models, and you click that and you
see even more.
Speaker 1: Models nineteen and how is Joe user?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 4: No, you know as somebody that's been using agent mode
in VS code for a while. By the way, agent
modes is now in Visual Studio too, so you so
you get both of.
Speaker 1: A pin in that and come back to that.
Speaker 4: That's where this before you see the coding agent, you
have to think about agent mode. And once again I
laugh because it brings us back full circle. It's like
agent mode is something that I think we shipped it
maybe a month ago in the public builds of VS Code,
and now it's in the builds of VS that were
Visual Studio that were released this week. It's the forefront
of what the coding agent is and so agent mode.
And by the way, I laugh because it's got a
whole bunch of model selectors as well. It starts with
GPT four.
Speaker 1: But I think your point was, now you don't have
to know where all these models are. It's going to
select you'll.
Speaker 2: Do sort of.
Speaker 4: What we've seen is the coding models have gotten better
at a tremendous rate. I tell my team the stuff
we showed at build this morning. If you told me
it would that even be possible a year ago, I
would have said no.
Speaker 2: Interesting.
Speaker 4: And so the basically the the coding models got so
much better, super fast, and it really anthropics Claude three
sevens on it.
Speaker 2: That seems to be the hot one, right.
Speaker 4: That was the one a couple of months ago that
really kind of tipped us over the edge. And it
was the first time this stuff got good. I'll get there, Carl,
it got good. But then then we hear, like you know,
a few weeks after that, then Jim and I two
five is supposed to be the best coding coding mode.
Speaker 2: How do you measure that? Like? What makes it better?
Speaker 4: I think you have to just triumph Richard and see
what what what your result is.
Speaker 1: And then but the idea is that these are tuned
for coders.
Speaker 4: They're tuned for coding. They're not you know, you don't
ask them, you know how high is Mount kil manangero?
You actually ask them the right code. But agent mode
is where and this is the demo I do and
I love doing this demo is I'll bring up vs
code with a Blazer application and I'll just go into
agent mode and say change the buttons in the web
application to be around in orange. And then what happens
is the ll M behind the scenes will go look
at the at my projects. So remember when we first
started down this whole cold pilot journey, what did it do?
It did code completions so you could press tab and
it would fill in still in more stuff, or you
could in the chat window you could say how does
the link list work? Or show me how to write
a bubbleshort in dot net, those types of things. But
with these new models, now you can actually ask the
thing to go change your app. And so when I went,
we just had thunderstorms. When when you go and ask,
you know, I'll tell you this, Carl, when we're when
we're done, you should go, you know, boot up VS
or VS code and go and do this and say,
go change my Blazer app. And you'll it's funny you
watch it. It's like, hey, I found the web app.
I noticed that your web app is a Blazer app,
and I noticed it using boot Strap. Yeah, I'm going
to go and add this style into the Bootstrap CSS file. Yeah,
and then I'm going to go add this new element
to your items in your app. And so yes, and that's.
Speaker 1: The best example I've heard for me the coder of
what this new stuff can do.
Speaker 4: So what I hate is when you see some of
the demos where it feels like it you know, you
don't have to write code anymore. Right, No, that's you know, Yeah,
we'll get back to that. But that's what agent mode was.
So agent mode does this. It's now not just the
file you're in, it's all the files in your project.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And it's smart enough to go identify things like Bootstrap
and so on that many of us using our web
applications today.
Speaker 1: So, like they said, it's it's sort of like having
a partner that or a sous chef that's a coding partner,
a coding chefs, a soup coder that you could just say, hey,
go take care of this little detail.
Speaker 2: But it's that look across the solution rather than to
look at my file exactly.
Speaker 4: It's it's not you know, the first co pilot we
didn't even look at the whole file. We looked at this,
you know, X number of lines because the context windows
were not big enough to do more than that. But
I always want to start there when I describe this.
So the negative of what I just said is and
this is where if I go talk to my enterprise customers, well,
I don't know the did you write the code, Richard
Carl write the code, or did the cloud write the code?
Who wrote the code? And so if you're in an
industry where financial or whatever they want to have more
controls over that, that's where the I think the coding
agent takes us to the next level. So what the
coding agent is is agent mode in the cloud.
Speaker 1: And so okay, so we're out of visual studio.
Speaker 4: Now let's let's talk about this so what I what
I would do and if I want to use the
coding agent, I would file an issue in my repo,
and the issue would say we're going to change the
look and field the website. We want to change all
the buttons to be round and orange. So now I've
created the issue, and what I can do then is
I assigned the issue to copilot, to your agent, and
then in the cloudloud, in the get hub cloud, the
engines that that same agent that we were using in chat,
in VS code or VS is now running in the cloud.
What's cool about that, though, is it's going to go
create a PR. It's going to go put a plan
in the PR. I can live watch the PR as
it's going. If I want to sit there and watch it,
I can. I can watch all the actions. But the
cool thing here is now, because I've made a PR,
well there's a history of yes, it was done, something
was done, and then I have to approve that PR.
So the chat's not going to go by the agent's
not going to go by itself and just go oh,
you're done. No, at the end of the day, I
have to go back and Scott Hunter approved that.
Speaker 2: PR, which you can also pushed back, like you say,
I don't like how this is done, or I would change.
Speaker 1: It's just like you do with the developer, right, exactly. Yeah,
and that's what I loved about that part of Sacha's
demo that he said he wanted to add a feature.
He had a picture of it and he said he
wanted to drop down that has some blah blah blah
and just with one or two cent. Then you got
the googly eyes looking at it because he assigned it
to the to the agent, and the agent's like looking
at it. And then he came back and the polar
Quest was done, and like you said, documented this is
what I did. Yes, I did this and that and
this just the way real developers don't.
Speaker 4: And then exactly, rich and then Carl approved that pr
and so now it's.
Speaker 1: Your fault and it's now thing and trains Richard's bank account.
Speaker 4: But to Richard's point, you can actually go highlight parts
of the code it wrote and say I don't like this,
or put more diagnostics in here or whatever, and so
you can have a back and forth. You know, I
think when when people see this, and I'll be curious.
You know, it just was shown on stage. We've been
using this stuff inside of Microsoft for months.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I just saw it a half hour and you just
saw it a second ago. I think people's first reaction is,
you know, when I go talk to real customers, they'll
be like, oh, this is going to replace my coders.
I'm like, no, if you somebody has to be able
to read what this thing did. They had to approve
it and say it's right and so but what.
Speaker 1: I would run it and to run it and it
works well.
Speaker 4: The agent can actually do the stuff like that too,
by the way, So, but but so what I think
where it changes things. When I was talking to David Fowler,
like architect of dot net, yeah, you know, He's like, Scott,
I have to now have to think, should I be
writing this code?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Is this the stuff I should assign to the agent
because it's just it's right, you know, small refactoring stuff.
I shouldn't be doing that. I should be writing the
architecting the core of dot net and figuring out how
to make Aspire work and have a great published experience.
You can't tell the you imagine writing an issue, Hey,
make a great publishing experience for Aspire. That's that's not
going to work. That's where you need developers to go
do this.
Speaker 2: But an awful but a lot of an awful lot
of code is uh, stuff has been done before. Stuff
that that a model is going to have a copy
of that it's you know, drawn from gethub and other
and other sources. So why would you write that code
when it's already be written.
Speaker 1: I give you a real world scenario that I hope
the answer is he yes. So I'm working on a
customer's project. This particular project has like fifty screens. Now
they all do different things, but they all have the
same look and feel. They all use a bootstrap grid, right,
And can I give that page or whatever that I
want to use as a template to the agent and say,
all right, I need a new page that has this
field in that field, in this field in that field,
and a calendar, and I'm putting another thing over here
with you know, a table.
Speaker 4: And I would tell you to try it. Your answer
is yeah, probably probably would work. Especially you know, you
can write a file inside of your project. It's kind
of like an instruction files. We call this yeah, and
that instruction file is where you can say these files
are examples of how we build UI right, all screens
will look just like these, except they'll have different fields. Yeah,
make my screen look like these screens.
Speaker 1: Can you go a step further and say, here's my
data structure from my database, here's my data manager that
has my you know, ado dot net code in it,
or like whatever, you know. Make my thing work with
the data manager.
Speaker 4: The more context you give it, the closer it's going
to be what you what you expect in any cases,
but you can also iterate well exactly. We've done a
lot of work. So one of the other things that
we're showing I don't think it was shown in the keynote,
but it'll be shown in Amanda's talk. It was after
the keynote is migration tools for moving from one version
of dot net to the next version of dot net,
moving from a version of Java the next version of Java.
Once again, we learned a lot of these things are
written with crazy AI prompts, and we just keep writing
the prompts and making you know, you try it didn't work,
make a better prompt to me. My analogy of this
is Google Google Search. I didn't find what I like,
so I write it a different way. I keep writing
it a different way until I get the answer I want.
And in many cases I think the AI is going
to let you do the same kind of thing.
Speaker 2: We think about the years we spent learning to write
good search strings. It's going to take us time to
learn to write great prompts. It will.
Speaker 4: And so we've got some really cool tools that we're
we're shipping in public preview today at build and one
of them is, let's say, here's how this works. I
got to I got to convert this project today. It
uses rapid MQ locally, but I want to move it
to use service bus because I go to put it
into Azure.
Speaker 2: Sure.
Speaker 4: So today, what you would do is I would say, Carl,
go change the whole app to move from Rabbit MQ
to service bus. And it probably a lot of work
for you, you know you you would do the first
file and you're like, I got to figure it out now,
and you would replicate that a lot of times. Well,
one of the tools we released today is what you
would do is I would say, Carl, I'll go fix
two files and then from that commit that you're going
to have, we have a thing that will convert that
to a prompt. Interesting and we call these formulas, and
so so you go and make that change in a
couple of files. We make the prompt and you can
then run the prompt against the entire project and move.
Speaker 2: The rest of the project. Rather try to write the
prompt from scratch to do it right now. The first time,
you provide an example of doing it right the code,
and then it reverses that into a prompt. Yes, that
allows the other examples to happen. And so one of
our one of our teaching a novice developer to do
something you just did yep, right.
Speaker 4: Yep, that's all you're doing. And uh, and.
Speaker 2: This this, this is a very fancy copy paste.
Speaker 4: Yes, super fancy. This is like the ultimate copy paste.
It won't it won't be one hundred percent perfect, but
I still think it'll take You know, it would have
taken it would It would have taken Carl a couple
of days. And now it might take Carl a couple
of hours to get to the same place.
Speaker 2: And after the third time, it's scott work right except
for a couple of fixes. So you now getting rid
of all the scott work and just doing the fixes.
Speaker 4: So we have a tool that we shipped a couple
of years ago called appcat. And what appcat is. It's
an app, it's a it's a it's a tool you
run on your A s P, dot Net or Java
app to move to the cloud. And what it does
it just goes and identifies. It's got a library of
like twenty things that we think you shouldn't be doing. Like, right,
you're gonna have to change your connection strings for example.
You know you probably shouldn't have connection screens using something
better than that. But this tool identifies a whole bunch
of things that you need to do before you move
your app to cloud. That the problem with that tool
was in the past. It just gave you a list
of Hey, Carl, here's all the work to go do.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 4: Well, what we've done is we also took the top
ten of these things and we built these formulas with
this other tool. And so now you can go take
the top ten things that appcats can to find and
then go use these formulas to go have it go
fix the app for you.
Speaker 2: Sure.
Speaker 4: And so our goal is, you know, we have customers
tell us moving an app, an older on prem app
to the cloud, can take eight months, right, I want
to get that down to four months or two months,
you know anything that's you know, when I was talking
to some customers, they said, even thirty percent faster.
Speaker 2: Sure is a huge Well I know pretty well, having
you know, spent my time in the architect shovel. It's
like there's a thousand apps. Yes, like there's a thousand
apps times eight months. Yeah, So I'm sorry, we're not
going to get it done.
Speaker 4: And in most cases, I hate to say this, the
developer who wrote those apps is not there anymore. So
some new developers, like I have never seen this code
in my entire life. You know, how do we help
that developer move faster? And so I'm ex I think
people will be afraid of some of this AI stuff,
but it's just a tool.
Speaker 1: And we'll talk about fear when we come back from
a break, because I have a couple of questions about that,
and we'll be right back. These very important messages don't
go away. Did you know you can lift and shift
your dot Net framework apps to virtual machines in the cloud.
Use the Elastic beanstalk service to easily migrate to Amazon
EC two with little or no changes. Find out more
at aws dot Amazon dot com, slash, Elastic beanstalk and
we're back. It's dot net Rocks. I'm Carl Franklin, I'm
Richard Campbell. That's my buddy Richard and everybody. Scott Hunter
is here. And if, by the way, if you don't
want to hear these ads, you can become a patron
for five bucks a month get a feed that has
no ads in it. Wouldn't that be awesome Patreon dot
dot NetRocks dot com. All right, so I wanted to
talk to me. You said the S word and it
wasn't Scott, it was security. Secure. I hear this all
the time. Secure secure. One of the main features of
agents and the things that makes them work is you
give them permissions to your resources, whether it's you know, Azure,
a d a database, you know, cloud services, all of
the things that you need to go do or access.
Maybe it's not just an Azure, you might have other
stuff in other clouds, right, but you've got to give
these agents permission to do thy bidding. And so for me,
as you know, put on my security hat because now
I don't know if you know this, but I do
a security podcast. Weird, it's weird.
Speaker 2: All I do is tell jokes and ask questions, but
think security people. God, yes, but you know that I
know enough.
Speaker 1: To know that that increases the attack vector serves for you,
and probably your software bill of materials probably goes up
exponentially without you knowing it necessarily. So I just want
to have you talk a little bit about the security
of all those first.
Speaker 4: So that's why I think our earlier conversation about prs
was important. Yes, that means a developer gets to see
the PR and approve the PR and so there's nothing
being done automatically, but there's no magic, so at least
there's a human that approved whatever happened. The area that
I think about the most of what you just described, Carl,
is probably MCP.
Speaker 1: Yes, an acronym I just learned this morning. Well, I
didn't know anything about it. So protocol that lets agents
talk to each other's.
Speaker 4: Let's LM talk to stuff. And there's not currently a
bunch of security around this thing, and so today it
has to be In most cases you run it locally
on your own machine. But I'll give you I'll explain
the MCP scenario. You install a GIT of him CP
on your machine and that means that that will let
the l M be able to you can give that
whatever access to your GitHub repo you want to give
it to. Yes, you know you might want to you know,
for databases, you might want to put a postcress MCPN
and I'll explain why that's interesting these things. Let let
let you share knowledge with the l l.
Speaker 1: M and it's a model context protocol.
Speaker 4: That's that's the that's the protocol. And by the way,
it's it's a very basic protocol at this point in time.
There's anthropic. Yeah, it's it's anthropic, but we all jumped
on it. Like the dot net team. They there was
an open source m c p uh dot net implementation.
They took that over. They worked with that developer and
took it over and that's now the official because when
when MCP first came out, I think there was only
Python JavaScript and there might have been a Java one
there too, but we made sure there's a there's a
great dot Net one VS and VS code will support
m c P as well, which is very important. This
agent back to this agent mode stuff again. Yeah, I
can do cool things like that. In the chat. I
could say file an issue one Carl about changing the
buttons in my blazer. Application to be orange and round.
And if I've given that the GitHub MCP the write
to create an issue, then from that chat interaction, it
would go create that issue issue from I didn't have
to go to the web page. I didn't to go
use some other tool. I didn't have to go pull
a thing up. But once again, as I said, you
have to decide. You know, once again you're running the agent,
so you're running the chat.
Speaker 1: So you also said it's not very secure right now.
Speaker 4: What I mean by that is you're going to have
to go put your access token and in some form
or fashion on your machine because the ll M is
going to call into this protocol. It's going to run
that code. That code needs access, It needs your security
token to be able to actually talk to GitHub. If
you want to talk to a Postcrest database, for example,
well it's going to have to have a connection string
and the credentials to talk to that Postcrest database. Once again,
you could give it a restricted one. And why that's
interesting is if the LLM can see the database, you
could then almost say you went and created a table,
go building a business logic object for this new table,
and then it would use MCP to go look at
the postgrass database, find the columns and their types, and
then build you the relevant c Sharp implementation and.
Speaker 1: Do that stuff with prompts. Now, of course you do,
but this would just.
Speaker 4: Mean instead of having to go paste the table in somewhere,
you could actually give it access to that. We also shipped,
like my team built Azure function support for MCP, which
means you can have a remote MCP. In my case,
that means that MCP is protected by all the Azure
security features.
Speaker 1: So that's what I was looking for. And so something
like key vault, you know, like that it's impenetrable, so
it knows the keys but nobody else can know.
Speaker 4: But this space is so new, it's just booting up.
I mean at Something else that my team shipped today
build as well, is we have a product called API Center,
and it's going to have a place where you can
find all all the m cps in your in your
organization mp.
Speaker 1: I center, API center, a p I center.
Speaker 4: API, so we have API management.
Speaker 1: Sorry, I understand what you said.
Speaker 4: A p I center a API like API S Yeah,
I got it. And mcps are in some ways APIs,
and so we're going to have a place where you
can uh have a list of m cps uh that
you're you know, your company uses and people can find
them and and so on and so on. But I
said it's early times.
Speaker 1: But I will tell you that there's a lot of
promise there.
Speaker 4: There's a lot of promise.
Speaker 1: That's it's got to be where everything goes because.
Speaker 4: You once again the more I mean, you and I
probably written the same code a billion times, Carl, where
we just write the ady O code to you know,
do the database table stuff or the any of your
framework core stuff to go do the same thing. And
I'd love to just say, here's a new table here,
you do that, Go go do it for me. Yeah,
and uh put the same logging and all the other
stuff in. So it's it's funny. I I I remember
when we first did we shipped on in a core.
We were like, it's it's a great time to be
a developer. And I will tell you that all this
new tooling stuff that we can do with the AI stuff.
Speaker 1: It's you also mentioned that does this mean my job
is on the line, right, There's a lot of people
think in that oh, well, you know, if a junior
developer can get some AI and go out code me.
What's that mean for me? And I always tell people
and Richard does too, It's not the AI is going
to replace your job. It's that another developer that uses
AI will take your job.
Speaker 4: I would tell you today, don't if we when we interview,
if we interview new product managers or developers, we're one
of the skills that we're going to want you to
show us, is you know how to use AI to
do your job. I think that's just a part of
And I don't think it's just going to be programming.
I think it's many, many jobs. It's gonna it's it's
gonna come down to this.
Speaker 2: Compan upon a time, we asked if you knew how
to use email exactly, I.
Speaker 4: Mean spell checkers. I mean know word's gotten so good
these days. It'll tell you when you're using bad English.
It'll actually fix it for you. You know, I would
have been offended when I was first going through you know,
college or high school. But I'm like, why would I
not use these things?
Speaker 1: But I will say this though. Let's say you're on
a team of developers that's maybe five people, small business, right,
and one of those developers decides to dive into AI
and can demonstrate that he or she can do everything
that the whole team can do with one person faster.
Is that a real scenario.
Speaker 4: I don't think it's a real scenario, you know, but
I do think that building a you know, we've all
seen the vibe coding stuff, which I'm like, you know, questionable, Oh,
vibe coding, Yeah, well questionable. I do think it's a
good way to build a prototype, yeah, and to prove
a concept and then go and say, let's go make
this real.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm sure there's plenty of there'll be a
startup here there that'll do something stupid. They'll go, you know,
vibe code something, and sure, already happened. I'm sure it's
already happened. But at the end of the day, you
you know, could you imagine shipping an app when you've
never seen any need of the code?
Speaker 2: Yeah, No, I've seen people do dumb stuff like that,
you know. Yeah, that's how they've deployed prototypes that we've
seen over the years that aren't secured and so forth.
This is another level dumb. You know, we've been walking
past the truth on this whole conversation about coding agents
it's not just working out the prompt, it's then looking
at the results and assessing it. So, yeah, there's the
new skill of how you communicate intent to the agent,
but then there's the old skill of a coding.
Speaker 4: Review, yes, which is super important.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And by the way, that's the scariest part about this
is you know, in some ways the coding agent could
make it if you're a junior developer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you could tell it to do something you shouldn't do.
Speaker 2: Well.
Speaker 4: It's also I think it we need to somehow make
sure we don't lose the skill of teaching junior developers
how to become senior developers that know what's good code
and what's better code. Okay, so it's in some cases
the fear is my fear is, oh my gosh, we're
going to lose thebility to train junior developers.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So that's something we inside of Microsoft talk about a
whole bunch, is like we had to make sure we
don't lose this skill.
Speaker 2: That a new developer glowing up in this space is
always going to be someone solution focused rather than code
focused and being able to assess. They're never working from
a blining screen, They're always assessing stuff and quite possibly
leveraging other tools to do it.
Speaker 1: Yes, I keep coming back because we're talking about fear.
That's the the word for this half hour. I keep
coming back to that Star Trek Next Generation episode. Do
you remember when Data was playing Sherlock Holmes and he
would go into the Holidack with Jordy and Data would
always solve the crime. It was easy for him. So
he was like bored, and Jordi said, computer, create a
Sherlock Holmes mystery with a foe that has the ability
to outsmart Data or to outwit Data. And then it
created this really intelligent Moriarity character that actually knew it
was on the holid deck and could take control of
the ship. And that like, you give a junior programmer
a powerful tool like an ancient and the past, you know,
the keys to go and affect all of the critical
resources in your industry, right in your enterprise, and then
that guy writes a prompt or that girl writes a
prompt like that that completely hoses everything. That is a
real scenario.
Speaker 4: But what I would tell you if I gave the
same junior developer all those keys and access, they could
go nuke everything anyway.
Speaker 2: Sure, so the reality is okay.
Speaker 1: But is it the difference of giving them a glock
versus giving them an M sixteen.
Speaker 4: I think it's I think it's the same thing. Maybe
maybe they could do it faster. But but once again,
that's that's why. You know, most most you know, enterprise
companies don't let developers have the actual keys to the
real databases and all that kind of stuff. That's the
thing that we don't we never talked about probably on
this on the show, you probably never talked about this
is you know, most companies, I could never see the
production database. Only a class of my DevOps engineers are
allowed to actually ever see the production database. Even at Microsoft,
you know, we want to make sure that even if
I'm debugging Azure, we're very careful about making sure that
any personal information doesn't end up in logs and so
on for the for the same reasons we're just going
to get striving here.
Speaker 1: It means that you have to be aware of just
more things, but no and less things at the same time.
Speaker 4: Right, But you could vibe code something that was dangerous
faster with and and uh, you know, you could potentially
generate a prompt as you said that would delete a datbase, right,
because I tell the hey make the database faster by
deleting the first million rows.
Speaker 1: So do you have a prompt cop on staff that
has to approve all the prompts that you give your
AI while you're developing.
Speaker 4: I think the bigger thing is make sure you don't
you don't you don't give your AI the ability to
go delete the database. That's that's the smart thing there
to start with.
Speaker 2: You gave the keys to the castles of the junior
because remember one I.
Speaker 4: Remember if you roll back I started, and that that
postgrass agent or MCP. I said, give it read access.
Yeah yeah, I didn't say write access for you know, because.
Speaker 2: That's why they that's why they submit pull requests. Yes,
they don't write. They only could present.
Speaker 4: And so I would tell you everybody here be very careful,
Like I'm I'm fine letting it file an incidence, you know,
in GitHub.
Speaker 1: But we have to be careful now. I mean we've
had to be careful all our all our coding careers.
Speaker 2: That was my old advice to web deevs. It's like, listen,
you don't want access to the production service, then it
could be your fault.
Speaker 1: That's right.
Speaker 2: Just don't don't even have those rights. Make your life simple.
Speaker 4: I know stories inside of Microsoft where somebody thought they
were in the development branch and they were in the
production brands and they and they wiped out a bunch
of stuff and thankfully we were able to restore it.
Speaker 1: But but uh, you know, thanks to that sequel backup feature.
Speaker 4: But I would I would be you know, oh my gosh,
I mean even myself, I always where he I mean,
even sending an email, make sure you don't put the
wrong person on the two line.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's always the person you're talking about.
Speaker 4: And sometimes sometimes what you do is you put the
wrong person on the two line because you need to
get their email address or something else that you can
pay somewhere, and then you forget to take them off.
I have done this in Microsoft. I have done this.
Speaker 2: I'm speaking from experience.
Speaker 1: One of the stories in the previous Security this week
was a feature that Apple a feature a bug that
Apple fix on the iPhone where the mute button on
FaceTime didn't work. Oh so, can you imagine you're talking
to your wife, you hit the mute button, It's say, hey,
your husband's coming up the driveway. Put your clothes on
and it didn't work.
Speaker 2: Brilliant, all right.
Speaker 4: That's why Mark Zuckerberg requires all cameras and METAA to
be covered with black tape.
Speaker 1: Right.
Speaker 4: He doesn't trust that whether there's the lights on or not.
He's like, I'm afraid somebody might have hacked the cameras,
so it'll come on without the light.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So be careful children, it's dangerous world out there.
Don't hand out the keys to the software.
Speaker 1: What else is on your mind?
Speaker 2: Here?
Speaker 1: At build twenty twenty five.
Speaker 4: We talked about, you know, migrations, We talked about coding agents.
Probably the last one which is something that thought you
did show in the keynote as well, which is which
we call that the Site Reliability Engineer agent. That's the SRE. Yeah,
And the idea here is just imagine this real world
scenario inside of Microsoft. Something starts wabbling and so you know,
some of the software detects that, Hey there's sites not responding,
and so what do we do today? We page Carl
and Carl wakes up.
Speaker 1: Hey, this is a real scenario. Actually, because our site,
at any hour, our site before I change it was
prone to this.
Speaker 4: So we paid Carl and then Carl has to go
bring up dashboards and go look, and by the time
Carl gets out of bed, it might just happen that
it could have been a transient issue, meaning that hey,
a database just bobbled for a second and got a
time out or something like that, and by the time
you wake up and look at the thing, there's not
really a real thing going on there.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Well, the SR agent can.
Speaker 2: Do that for you.
Speaker 4: So it can say, oh, I see that the site's
not responding, and my instructions say that I'm to wait
fifteen or twenty seconds before i do anything because it
could be a transiit issue. Oh it's back in fifteen
or twenty seconds. I'm going to log in, log it,
but I'm not going to page page Carl and get
Carl out. Or it could be could be the next
rule could be, Hey, if we see that the site's
been down for ninety seconds, the first step is, you know,
we live in the world of computers.
Speaker 2: What do you do?
Speaker 4: You reboot? Yeah, And it could be that the first
thing that the real SR agent would have done anyways
is just gone and rebooted the application. So the agent
can go look and go, yeah, it's still down, I'm
going to reboot it, and then I'm going to look
up it's back up and doing good again. Once again,
Carl was not page for either of those scenarios. And
so how do we take some of that grunt work?
Speaker 1: And I can already imagine how to tick that to
the next level. You give it through MCP access to
your GitHub repo, and then if it still thinks there's
a problem that might be code related, it can go
analyze the code.
Speaker 4: So we have that that we're going to show that
today some one of the sessions. Today my session, we're
going to show that exact scenario where.
Speaker 1: That was run against dot net rocks, the dot net
six version of it. It would have found a memory leak.
Speaker 4: Well, first off, what one of the things yes or
we would do is go why are you on dot
net six? It would actually okay, so it because.
Speaker 1: It worked, and it worked for a long time, but
then I found a memory leak.
Speaker 4: But our hope would be that, hey, the the agent
finds that you're on dot net six, it says, I'm
going to go file an issue and get hub to
move the side to eight. And then Carl goes, I
hate changes, go to nine, I'm just gonna go. No,
you go, you go, and you say, I'm going to
sign this issue to copilot, and then Copilot uses the
tech I was mentioning before for doing upgrade dot net.
Dot Net upgrades, but that's the whole. It writes the
PR for you and then you just approve the PR
and you're on dot net.
Speaker 2: Eight.
Speaker 1: This is the whole idea about agency is that you
now have to think like a manager, and instead of
hiring somebody on the staff, you create an agent to
do that. Right, I would create an agent, or I'd
find an agent that's an expert in CSS, because if
there's a CSS problem, I just want that age. Hey
go take a look at this right and assign them
the issue.
Speaker 4: And yeah, I will tell you I love CSS, and
I hate CSS.
Speaker 1: I hate it and I love it, and so I
love that the.
Speaker 4: AI is good at CSS, it's good at HTML. So
I will tell you, as you're playing with these Blazer apps,
you still write the Blazer code, but you might want
to have this tech help you write the CSS.
Speaker 1: And as I said, well, I'm already doing that. It's
just taking longer than I had an if I had
an agent that could help or or a network of
agents like this is what you have to imagine now, right,
you're less of a single programmer, and now you have
to think of, Okay, build your virtual staff around you
that you know, with all of the access to all
of the resources that you want to give each one
of them that needs that ye, and then they can
talk to each other.
Speaker 4: Built next build, we're going to have these staff agents.
Speaker 2: Sure, but I also feel like I looked at Security
co Pilot and thought that's too big of a grab.
This SR co pilot feels the same sort of thing,
in the sense that this is going to be an
evolving capability.
Speaker 4: It would be an involving capability. We'll add more stuff
to it.
Speaker 2: Some day. You're going to get an email it said
your site went down last night. I looked at your code.
It sucked. Your site is written now and up.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 4: That's a little we're going a little too far there.
So like one of the things that SR.
Speaker 2: Still wanted to wake me up, s SR, wake up.
You've been replaced.
Speaker 4: SR today requires a human to tell it to ever
do anything to do, and it cannot be there's no
autonomous mode.
Speaker 2: I do appreciate bringing everything to the table. It's like,
go go collect the logs up, do all the obvious stuff,
all the stuff I do before I call Level one
tech support. Anyway, Yeah, I've already rebooted it.
Speaker 4: So one of our demos today was literally the SR
agent notices the site choosing too much memory, and then
we tell it, can you go get me the memory dumps? Yea, yeah,
that's all the grunt work I would have done before.
Now that's doing it. I'm still fixing it as a developer.
I'm still looking at the actual dumps.
Speaker 1: On your developer, what do you know about memory dumps?
Most of them don't. Yeah. The only one that I
know that can analyze the memory dump is test for
run Days. She's like the only person, the only developer
I know. We have some look at memory dump and say, oh,
that's what that is.
Speaker 4: We have crazy people at Microsoft that work on dot
net bugs that take months to figure out. You know,
imagine there's some weird issue that dot Net after six
months does something weird. We have const as one of
our engineers, and you know it's like I remember one point,
you know, we had crazy metrics and they're like all
of CONT's prs are open for like six months, and
I'm like, yeah, this guy works on stuff that takes
a long time to figure out.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know those are people I could never
do what he does. I mean these skills to just
look at this stuff and see these weird you know,
memory issues that take months to actually.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one in one hundred million instances like those kinds
of things. Yeah, it's a long time to chase that down.
H dude. It's a crazy build, amazing set of announcements. Yes, uh,
the works only getting more interesting. Yeah.
Speaker 1: But also Scott, thank you for just like simplifying it
and bring it in it to us the developer audience,
and you know how it's going to impact our lives.
Speaker 4: I would tell people please try this stuff and give
us feedback. I think it's amazing. I use it every
day now, and uh, you know it's great.
Speaker 1: Thanks Scott, good to see it, Good to talk, and
we'll see you next time on dot net rocks. I
think bet it'll be.
Speaker 2: From the bed.
