Weekly Recap
Apologies for the reduction in content this week... I didn't write a single article and I lost two days worth of video content due to some microphone challenges.
We Need TWO?! - C# Plugin Architecture For ASP.NET Core
In the previous videos I made on this topic, we looked at two different ways that we can setup Autofac for dependency injection inside of ASP.NET Core. There were pros and cons to both approaches, but for the most part, they'll do the trick for the average application.
When it comes to building C# plugin architectures, I want to ensure that I have access to all of the dependencies that I'm interested in. That means in ASP.NET Core, I need to set the bar high for my plugins. See how I was able to combine both of the previous methods into this one!
Replaceable And Indispensable - Principal Software Engineering Manager AMA

Senior to Principal Engineer in Big Tech - Interview With Bhavana Hindupur
In this interview,
enlightened me with some different perspectives about the challenges going through tech. She explained how cultural background and expectations from society can create additional barriers when navigating how to progress in the workplace.One of the great points that Bhavana brought up was about the turning point in her career going from senior to principal level -- You need to be the one driving the change!
Thanks for the awesome chat, Bhavana!
