My brain just screams "Code!" until I am awake.

Built and published a small .NET Core app under Ubuntu that was running on the Windows Subsystem for Linux. Executable ran flawlessly on a RHEL 7 machine that didn't have .NET installed at all. I guess the self-contained and trimmed project builds work. The win-x64 target ran on a XP VM.

Not too shabby. Too bad the cross-platform GUI stuff won't happen until MAUI is done (sometime around .NET6). .NET 5.0 will be released tomorrow so that'll be another year at least.

I share your opinion.

Up for almost 30 hours. Slept for maybe three. At it again. Someone please hit me with a tranquilizer dart.

It's incredible how heavy those old things are. It was a nice display in it's day. Still works great but most of the newer systems I have on the bench no longer have a VGA port.

Workout completed a while ago. Carried an ancient, 75 pound, Trinitron monitor up a flight of steep steps and placed it in storage. Like the whiteboard, it was one of those things I put off doing for years. It used to sit on my workbench. It has been replaced with an old LCD display.

Have the remnants of a pot roast to finish off this evening. Potatoes, carrots, mushrooms and celery included.

Since my brain refuses to shut off long enough to allow me a nap, I must punish it by leaving for the office at 3:00 AM.

That does sound good now that you mention it.

2:02 AM and I have knocked off four things on my to-do list. By 5:00 PM, I'm going to be baked.
