Posting this in the hopes it prevents others from having the same issues and frustrations.
Having been following the .NET Core progress, and regularly upgrading previews, my list of installed SDKs had bloomed to a couple dozen or so. Read the docs and followed the instructions to remove the old SDKs using the standard App uninstall process.
After trimming it down to the recommended versions, plus preview 9 of .NET 3.0, I found that VS2019 Preview would not load SDk projects, reporting that it could not find the required SDK. Additionally, the dotnet command no longer worked.
Tried re-installing SDKs and VS2019 Preview, to no avail.
Applying some Google-Fu, I found that the path for the dotnet tools and SDKs had been removed from the PATH. Adding C:\Program Files\dotnet\ to the PATH fixed everything.

Thanks for the tip, we had an issue recently installing a new SDK version on our builder, might be related to this.

This is why I don't install pre-releases with microsoft products. Their pre-release setups get broken eventually and your updates hose your system for future installs.
Best to wait for release, or install prerelease on a VM

What's funny is i've seen microsoft test, and by any account they do a better job of it than a lot of software houses out there. full regression testing and code coverage. It's crazy, they have rooms full of people just writing tests.
But still, it is what it is. =/

It's big. That's why.
You simply can't make tests covering all situations.

Oh yeah, i agree.

I'm trying to draw a (very rough) guess at a new "lid" for my Sous Vide*
I've drawn a rectangle for the "indent" into the chamber and am rounding the corners to the right radius. And two of them are perfect! But the other two won't work - I just get an error message about corners not touching. An hour later, and I work it out: I'm selecting the corners in the wrong direction - you have to select them in the right direction: top left to bottom right, regardless of which corner it is. I've been selecting the left had pair TL-BR but the right hand pair BR-TL and for some reason that confuses it.
I hate other people's software, sometimes.
This is going to take a while, I think ... and this is just the "solid" version, not the "2mm thick with diagonal bracing" version I might want to print.
* I multi-purposed my deep fryer as I don't deep fry much, and it's quick to convert back. So it;'s a big metal insulated pot, and I added at 1/2 gastronorm perspex lid with a hole cut for the temperature controller - but it doesn't fit right, and I'd like to make a better one, with internal insulation. The possible 3D printer does up to 21x21x20cm, so I'd have to make it in four sections (or more accurately, eight - four bottom, four top so I can insulate the interior) but ...

Fusion 360 - it's free for hobbyists / startups and it's certainly fully featured.
Just wish the official tutorials were better.
It comes recommended by ThisOldTony, if you've seen any of his YouTube channel.

got a new samsung/android to replace my 3 year old samsung/android
- a little bit bigger (apparently twice the resolution)
- got 3 cameras!!! the old one only had 2
... that's 50% more camera for my half dozen or so pics per year!!
- got more memory
- got more battery (slightly)
- got more ... zzzzz
does everything the old one did ... some messages, calls [that I occasionally answer]. google maps, bike ride tracking, and, and, ummm, no I think that's it.
can't complain, free (as was the old one), well apart from wasting time to transfer my old info over
oh but yeah!!!
it's got the usb type c plug instead of the mini (micro?) usb
... so now I need another wire hanging around to charge it up (still need the old usb for some other items)
actual net gain: another charging cable I'll probably misplace sometime soon and have to order extra from fleabay. yay!

You can buy USB-C(M) to USB-B(F) connectors on FleaBay - they are about 25mm long, and would fit on your existing cable(s). Not expensive either - I bought some recently by mistake (I wanted USB-C(F) to USB-A(M)) and they were £3 for five.
Don't ask. Just don't.

how many do you still have?
(gotta love the old n for $x marketing ploy when you really only need/can use one.)
hmmm, I'll use this one, and put the other 4 in a safe place.
either:
- lost (only found about a year after they become redundant while looking for something else)
or/and
- given today's chinesium production quality rot, leaving behind a toxic sticky mess (regardless climate.)

I just avoided buying four black toner cartridges for my old HP Colorjet. They worked out to be 25% cheaper each than if I bought just one. I bought just one.
I have had the printer for about eight years now and have just now needed to get a new black cartridge - extending this level of usage (and it's getting lower each year) means I avoided buying enough black toner for 32 years instead of only 8 years and saved spending almost three times as much for the privilege!
Eventually I might need to replace the other three colour cartridges - but not any time soon.
- I would love to change the world, but they won’t give me the source code.

very wise
8 years down the road had you even found [that really safe place] where the other 3 were kept chances are some insects or vermin would have moved in, and the plastics disintegrated too. (including the wrapping leaving a rock solid toner mountain and permanent stains below)

Most new USB-C type phones support fast charging, but your charger needs to support it, so take care which one you are using

How much built-in RAM does it come with? And model number, please?

I was inspired by this post to try one last time to 'fix' my 5 y/o Windows Phone. For months now, the micro USB slot has been screwed up so that I had to hold the cable in place with an elastic band to get it to charge...even then it was finicky and sometimes would come out.
When it first happened, I did what was suggested here, using a toothpick to clean the contacts and the slot. It didn't work so I figured the slot was just screwed. This morning, I decided to try something a bit thinner/stiffer, so I got a sewing needle and started poking around, immediately digging out what looked like hard packed dirt/dust. It took some force to get in the slot on the thin side, but I finally got it all out! Now the cables seat correctly. Problem solved! 
One of the things I had been missing was the ability to plug up to my pc and access the phone and SD card through explorer, so I tried that now and it did not work...the phone shows charging, but device not showing up in explorer. I tried another cable...no joy.  I found the original cable for the phone and tried it...and it worked! Apparently, not all micro-usb cables are the same. Yay! I don't need to get a new phone after all!

I had a One. I like it.

I have a 3T. The camera stopped focusing the other day, hitting it on a hard surface like a concrete wall helps it to get its act together, for a short duration. Annoying. Wondering if the shoogling in the quad bike storage box has been the issue or if it is related to the common issue that is reported online. I had been holding off an upgrade just because it was working so well and nothing wrong with it, did everything I needed. Not now.....
