Show Notes

"There's so much that we can talk about with. NET 10 and related things like C# 14. So I'm going to try and focus on a few of the highlights that are personal highlights for me So let's start with the language actually, C# 14."— Mark J Price

Hey everyone, and welcome back to The Modern .NET Show; the premier .NET podcast, focusing entirely on the knowledge, tools, and frameworks that all .NET developers should have in their toolbox. I'm your host Jamie Taylor, bringing you conversations with the brightest minds in the .NET ecosystem.

Today, we're joined by Mark J Price to talk about some of our favourite things in .NET 10 and his new four-part book series on, quite literally, everything .NET. Mark is one of the most prolific authors in the .NET space at the moment, and his new book series is shaping up to be a fantastic resource.

"One of the things that I've always appreciated with Microsoft and their culture is that they have a very strong requirement that thing things are as backwards compatible as possible."— Mark J Price

Along the way, we talked about the recent changes to the STS (aka Standard Term Support) lifecycle for .NET, brining more support to the odd numbered versions of .NET and giving companies more time to migrate from one version to the next. We also covered a very important point when it comes to either STS or LTS towards the end of the episode: essentially, keep your runtimes up to date, folks.

This episode marks the fifth appearance of Mark on the show. Mark has been a wonderful collaborator over the years, and long may that continue. We joke about the fact that Mark deserves an award for the guest with the most episodes, but maybe he does deserve an award. Unless someone out there is willing to beat his record, of course.
