Гибкая фильтрация EF Core с помощью Expression. Часть 2: Roslyn Source Generator

Для своего пет-проекта мне понадобилась удобная система фильтрации, плюс я хотел попрактиковаться в кодогенерации Roslyn. В этой статье продолжаю рассказывать о гибкой фильтрации данных в EF Core на Exression.

Как мы исследовали динамику турбогенераторов 800 МВт для Сургутской ГРЭС-2 в 1991 году: метод ЛАХ против «черного ящика»

Меня зовут Викторина Юрьевна Савельева, мне 87 лет, и сегодня я подвожу определенные профессиональные итоги. Хочу поделиться результатами одной уникальной работы, которая была выполнена в далеком 1991 году по прямому заказу Сургутской ГРЭС-2.Долгое время у меня сохранялся только рукописный черновик. Недавно с помощью современных технологий я оцифровала его для семейного архива, а сегодня хочу передать это инженерное наследие профессиональному сообществу. Полную отсканированную копию оригинального исследован Read more

Разработчики опять ничего не поняли:)

Знакомая ситуация: задача ушла в работу, а через неделю выясняется, что сроки горят, фронтенд мычит, а результат вообще не то, что вы просили. Обычно в этом винят разработчиков. Но давайте честно: часто проблема начинается еще на этапе аналитики. Мое глубокое убеждение: лучший аналитик - это разработчик. Или человек, который научился думать как разработчик. Любая дорога хорошего разраба в будущем ведет в аналитику или архитектуру, потому что без понимания системы на... Read more

Я полностью перешёл на SDD

Точнее, на Spec Kit от GitHub. Полгода назад я бы над этим посмеялся: спеки, планы, декомпозиция задач - привет из 2010-го, когда это называлось waterfall и все дружно от него убегали. Оказалось, убегали не от спек, а от того, что их писали люди и потом никто не читал. В этой статье расскажу, где я отхожу от стандарта в угоду скорости.Что такое SDD в исполнении Spec Kit по сути… Читать далее Read more
