First World problems.
If one doesn't like what one sees in the mirror, one should get out of the TV lounger and go for a walk! Doing so on a regular basis will do wonders for one's health, body, and self-esteem.
Very few adults are so decrepit that they are incapable of that level of gentle exercise.
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows.

Inside every old person is a young person wondering what the elephant happened!
If you can keep your head while those about you are losing theirs, perhaps you don't understand the situation.

Well, from the neck up, everything's apparently the same as it's been, or seems so, at least internally (why did my hair get so crazy - and change to gray?).
However, from the neck, down, 'er, um. + (although no thanks at all for reminding me).

Thai food is quite good indeed!
Lucky you, it doesn't sounds all that bad!

Tried the newest NuGet version of Fody Costura, NuGet Gallery | Costura.Fody 5.1.0[^]
But nope it wasn't fun at all, could not make heads or tail of it and it made me feel dumb.
Just used a version of years ago which worked perfectly with my .NET 4.7 WinForms application and several 3rd party dll's without generating a monstrous 285 Mb packages folder and packaged everything neatly in a single exe without any problems.

I looked at that a couple years ago and said "screw that" and rolled my own solution.
My solution supports compression and unpacks assemblies to memory on-the-fly. I had to write up a custom Build task and manually insert it into my project's MsBuild script. There's also code you have to write to support unpacking the assemblies, but it works great. It cuts a 2.8MB executable down to less than 830K.
I'm thinking about writing an article for it, but time is the issue right now.

I tried Fody C some time ago, but found that once it's integrated into a project, it's impossible to get rid of it. (At least I couldn't figure out how to decouple it from the project.) So I've never tried it again.
Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

Luckily I had that figured out years ago and only had to reference some dll's that I put apart in a "Common" folder. All NuGet stuff was already removed and I only had to edit the project file.
To my surprise it worked with .NET 4.7 at the first try

I always thought NuGet was the stuff inside a three musketeers bar.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

For the past six months I've been working on a project for my biggest client.
Basically, they had Micros;f'[tppppp' (cat walked over my keyboard...) Microsoft Dynamics NAV and they switched to Business Central (BC) and I got to re-make all their custom work in Dynamics NAV.
The reason they're not doing this in BC is because that would take way more time and be way more expensive as their Dynamics partner isn't as fast or flexible as I am.
I've build this web application, hosted in Azure, where they can import their production data (through CSV because that's how they roll) and I create invoices and some other stuff from that data.
That data is then moved from my database to BC by some third party (I could've done that myself, but I can't access all software they're running and they wanted everything to go through this third party tool).
It went pretty well, save for one background process.
This process runs every day at noon and generates 10 to 15 Excel files.
We had about two records of test data for this process (and despite me asking several times it was impossible to get more), but in production we have 5000+ records and apparently, the Excel (Open XML) library that I'm using can't handle that much data very well.
Because budget for this process was small I simply built this task in the web application I was already building for them.
Saved me a lot of time and them a lot of money... NOT!
Every day at noon, the application comes to a grinding halt because the Azure service app goes to max CPU and memory for about 20 minutes.
I tried adding another instance, but this didn't completely mitigate the problem.
The work around is now that I run this process on my laptop every day at noon.
At least until I've moved this process away from the web application (hopefully early next week).
It's all part of the job I guess...
Overall the client's very happy with me and my work though, and I can expect the follow-up project soon!

And, any easter eggs?

No, you don't get those until tomorrow!

When they make a payment of €666 to JUUN Software, DOOM starts to play in the application
That would've been an awesome Easter egg, actually
But for real, no.

Well done, sounds like a good job.

Agh, I hate it when this kind of capacity/reliability issues rears its head. It's so frustrating.

Hehe... be careful, in case the client gets used to this.
