⚡️ When AI Outgrows Its Own Context Window
Developers are hitting a new scaling wall: large codebases that no longer fit inside an LLM’s context window. As projects grow, models struggle to reason across entire architectures without breaking things. It’s a sharp reminder that AI coding tools aren’t infinite—they’re bounded by their own memory.

⚡️ Inside .NET’s System.Diagnostics.Metrics Generators
A deep dive into the source generators in Microsoft.Extensions.Telemetry.Abstractions reveals a mixed bag. While they automate Metrics boilerplate, their design feels underwhelming — limited flexibility, moderate payoff. Useful for light telemetry, but hardly a breakthrough for .NET developers chasing real performance insights.
