Finished reading OSTEP. The official page count is approximately 700 pages; however, I think it is really 1400, because I think a second read is necessary. Fantastic book.

Currently on page 406 in "Operating Systems: Three Easy Pieces". Incredibly good book. This will definitely be on my book recommendation list for developers.

The power of ArrayPools in .NET:

I plan to continue the series on Kafka and RabbitMQ and introduce optimizations showcasing how pooling in .NET can significantly reduce your memory footprint.

question: would you all prefer software engineering discussion videos with or without playing a video game?

I have a new book recommendation: "Modern Distributed Tracing in .NET" by Liudmila Molkova. 
I am just about finished reading it and this book probably makes my top 5 .NET books.
I am planning some content for the next few months which will cover more engineering books, as well as plans for juniors devs, middle, and senior.

Woodworking video out today! I am also working on a multi-part video for testing an auto-scaling feature inside of a .NET project for adding new consumers to a RabbitMQ server. First part will be out tomorrow!

software development hot take: Agile is more concerned about good metrics than building a good system.

"Concurrency in .NET" by Riccardo Terrell is a top tier .net book. It is still probably one of the best and most useful books I have ever read. It is one of the rare books that brings up the topic of pipelines in .net and how to use them. would highly recommend checking it out

Im thinking about starting up a .NET API design series where we go through RESTful constraints, API best practices, methods of handling high throughput, logging, HTTP response codes, and more! What do you all think?
