Trimming Unnecessary Dependencies from Projects

by bill-s, 2018-02-25T01:08:07.710Z

When you’re working in large repositories with hundreds of MsBuild projects, you’re bound to have fairly complex build graphs. Over time, these can devolve and you may end up with lots of dependencies between projects which are no longer needed. This can cause builds to slow down as they are less parallelizable, and the developer experience can suffer as you unnecessarily rebuild libraries which have falsely depend on libraries you changed.

We're doing pagination wrong

by bill-s, 2018-02-26T22:57:56.831Z

These are the words that I had to mutter quite a few times in my career, at the dissatisfaction of how pagination had been implemented on several projects. Still, that dissatisfaction is nothing compared to how I feel when I occasionally had to ask “why is this API not paginated..?”
