How do production systems actually solve hard distributed systems problems? Most microservices tutorials stop at Auth, Product, Order Service, RabbitMQ, and Docker Compose. They rarely cover the problems that make distributed systems challenging. I'm curious how experienced engineers solve problems like: * Preventing double-booking under concurrent requests * Inventory reservation during flash sales * Idempotency …

Engagement
20 posts held, back to 22 July 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 page of Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 5 August 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.

Measured directly from 1 video with a duration reading, out of the posts we hold for this channel — not this channel’s whole posting history, only the sample this register has actually read. An exact reading to the second, taken from the post itself rather than from Telegram’s own rounded chrome, so it carries no ≈ mark.

Is there any valid reason to prefer sync over async for a DB-only API in .NET? I’m working on a backend for a marketplace application in C#/.NET and recently implemented a new API using async/await. During the PR review, one of the reviewers asked me to make the endpoint synchronous instead. Their reasoning was that the API only calls a stored procedure, the expected traffic is very low, and the application runs on …
Architecture Diagrams Disclaimer: My question isn't specifically about .NET. For those of you working as Senior/Principal Architects or Solution Architects, are you using any tools, workflows, or AI/LLM-based approaches to generate High-Level Design (HLD) documentation, especially architecture diagrams? I'm currently building a documentation generation workflow, and generating the written documentation is going re…
Application Insights bug - Dependencies telemetry is not sent with Activity This is a weeeird bug regarding application insights, and I can't seem to wrap my head around it. Hoping either I missed something, or that someone else saw this problem already. We're creating a long running job that handles multiple tasks at the same time. It calls an internal system and validates the state of some assets, and records the…
ExplorerFocus 1.2.11 — WPF file explorer I built with profiles, remote/cloud and built-in capture I'm the developer, and this is a solo project that's taken me a few months of work so far. To manage my personal and code documents I spend most of my day inside the same handful of folders, either on my machine or on remote ones — I need to reach them fast, and I often want to see what's inside a file without actually…
React/Vue/Svelte on top of MAUI Hi everyone, My team (.NET + web devs) needed to ship a desktop and mobile app from an existing React UI, and nothing in the ecosystem quite fit. Electron means a Node backend and shipping a whole Chromium. Tauri means Rust, which nobody on the team writes. MAUI/Avalonia/WPF means throwing away the React UI and rewriting it in XAML. Blazor Hybrid locks you into Razor. Photino was th…

An update on the world of PeachPDF PeachPDF is the HTML -> PDF engine I've been building for the last decade that renders HTML into PDF without using a headless browser or external process. We target .NET 8+, but we also multi-target .NET 10+. We support everywhere .NET 8+ runs, though some features don't work on certain platforms. As an example, iOS doesn't expose system fonts directly as font files, so you have t…

metrics would you check for this type of problem? \- Any recommended tools for debugging TCP connection issues on Windows? I am still investigating and will update again if I find the cause. Thanks again to everyone who helped in the previous post! https://redd.it/1v5d7ws @r_dotnet
ASP.NET Core on IIS randomly goes offline for 2 minutes. no errors, no recycle, but TCP CLOSE_WAIT spikes Hi everyone, A few weeks ago I posted here about a strange production issue we were having: [https://www.reddit.com/r/dotnet/s/sdmADloeNS](https://www.reddit.com/r/dotnet/s/sdmADloeNS) First, I want to say thank you to everyone who replied there. The comments gave me a lot of ideas and helped me improve my mo…
Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @r_dotnet. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
Mentions
Named by 4 registered channels — every channel on the register whose own posts have named this one, by its current username or any other username it currently holds, merged from two separately captured readings of the same fact so a namer caught by only one of them is not missed and a namer both caught is not counted twice. A username this channel has since dropped is not matched — that handle may belong to someone else now, and crediting today’s namer to yesterday’s owner would misattribute it.
Named by
Channels on the register whose posts name this channel's handle.
Names
Channels on the register whose handles appear in this channel's posts.
A mention is a weaker signal than a forward and is counted separately for that reason — naming a channel is not republishing it, and a handle in a post body is easy to place deliberately. The post counts beside each row below are distinct posts in which the handle appeared, from posts we have read on both sides — the “Named by N registered channels” figure above is a different count, of distinct NAMING CHANNELS rather than posts, and is not the sum of the rows under it.
