Have you heard of the observer pattern?

The observer design pattern is one of the patterns we're often exposed to early on in programming.

This pattern allows observers to observe observables.
(Clear as mud, right?)

Said another way, the different components of your system can listen for notifications, changes, and events by following this pattern!

Hey I'm still looking for work.
I've applied to a lot of places in my area and I'm getting nothing.

I'm a programmer at heart, but I've also been looking for regular entry-level jobs because there haven't been any coding positions open at my level as far as I could tell.

If you can offer me a job, it might save my butt. And if you can't offer me a job, could you at least share this post?

I live 30 minutes away from Bellevue if that helps.

LINQPad version 8.8.x has some cool stuff in the release notes.

More AI model support, support for @openrouter.bsky.social to arbitrarily support AI models, a new option to disambiguate databases with many schemas, and a bugfix for a Util feature I had no idea LINQPad already had.

Do you use enums in CSharp?

I come across enum usage in CSharp code bases frequently, but often I feel like people misuse them.

Enums look like a combination of a string and an integer -- So we get readability for our "magic numbers". By doing this, we can write more expressive code.

But using enums to represent sets of values that can change over time can be problematic!
