C# 14 Extension Members: The Shadowing Bug the Compiler Won't Warn You About
C# 14 lets extension blocks declare properties and static members — not just methods. That new surface comes with an old risk from a different angle: when a real member and an extension member share a name, the real member wins silently, with zero compiler warning. Verified against the .NET 10 SDK, including the exact diagnostics (CS9296, CS9339) a Roslyn-based test suite checks for.

.NET AI Community Standup: Data Ingestion with .NET
Building AI applications with .NET takes more than connecting a model. It takes making your data useful. Join this AI Community Standup to explore how .NET’s building blocks for AI (Microsoft.Extensions.AI), data ingestion (Microsoft.Extensions.DataIngestion), and vector data (Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData) come together to solve that challenge. Discover how data ingestion, embeddings, and vector search support context engineering, including retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), to help you build practical AI applications grounded in your own documents and business data. 🔗 Links: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/collections/ng62sjt1k4jjep 🎙️ Featuring: Bruno Capuano (@elbruno), Luis Quintanilla #AI #DataIngestion #DotNet

CQRS with MediatR, Revisited for .NET 10
A 2024 guide to CQRS with MediatR, rebuilt from scratch on .NET 10 instead of patched in place: what MediatR 14's license actually requires in practice, minimal API endpoints and IExceptionHandler replacing the original's placeholder exception behavior, SQLite in memory replacing a mocked DbContext in tests, the Native AOT limitations of reflection-based handler discovery, and a source-generated alternative that sidesteps the license question entirely.
