At times of no work, I code little demos and such for new features in .NET, C#, Core, and such. Then, when the motivation drain is normally here, it all stops at some code I might use later.
Today that drain was conspicuously missing. One hour after starting article 1, I had 1000 words on like two pages and was about 1/3 done. Two hours later, I was done, with 1.5k words and 8 pages. I had to stop because the code isn't 100% yet.
On to article 2. I have no metrics, but it was over and published in a flash, when I went on to finish and publish 2 previously incomplete tip/tricks.
Article 1 is a cool one. Please bear with me while I get every last detail working.

Heh. Sounds like my life.  It gets to be challenging when what I'm writing is a lot more interesting than what I'm doing for the income generating job. Requires a lot of discipline to stay focused.

Hey, I think using XML docs on private methods is allowed, and their content and syntax must be good. One tiny way to code English even for just that one chance before midnight and carriage back to code.
I have SandCastle and am looking forward for a way to integrate data into XML documentation commnents from other sources besides member comments. Like the other parts of the documentation, Intro, Epilogue, etc. It is possible to keep it all under one collection of XML documents.
Pity about the XML, but maybe JSON would have been verbose. And much harder to parse from actual C# code.

Not 100% certain yet but it looks like he died today.  ![Rose | [Rose]](https://codeproject.freetls.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/rose.gif)
Just saw him live this spring. Amazing show!

So today was my first day.
It was really just meeting a lot of people, getting my laptop, etc.
I must say I really like the company so far.
Today, I've been invited to more technology sessions than I've been in my previous two jobs in the last seven years together 
Last week we had .NET Core and Docker, tomorrow block chain, next week Azure...
Of course it really depends on the customer I'll be working for, which I'm going to do tomorrow.
Fingers crossed

Good luck!

That is cool. I wish the company I worked for did that. If they did, I would consider joining them rather than remaining a contractor so I have time to do all those things myself!

The company provides food, a location, a laptop, but the actual sessions are still in your own time.
On the flipside they expect you to keep updated and get certified.
Takes a lot of time, my previous company didn't do any of that and I still tried to keep up to date.
Less pressure, but I was the only one who did that

May your new start be as good as mine!

Thanks, good luck to you too!

I congratulate you! I hope you put it to good use sir!

That depends on just how he receives it how he can put it to good use.
