Aspire Deploy is a Windows desktop application ( .NET MAUI Blazor Hybrid ) that deploys any Aspire 13.x solution, from a local folder or a GitHub repository, to Azure Container Apps using aspire deploy and your own az login .
It discovers what the AppHost needs first (the AppHost kind, Aspire version, parameters, resources and deployment targets), and it saves everything as per-developer deploy profiles so a second deploy is one click.

A friendly roadmap for learning React: what to learn and in what order, what to build at each stage, what to skip for now, how to get unstuck, and how to use AI assistants without picking up outdated habits.

AI is changing cybersecurity, accelerating vulnerability research and exploit development while raising new questions about reliability, risk, and guardrails. Daniel and Chris talk with Spencer McIntyre, Director of Exploit Development at VulnCheck, about how agents are being used to discover vulnerabilities, why many proof-of-concept exploits (POCs) fail to deliver, and how initial access intelligence helps security teams prioritize real threats. They also explore the limitations of AI-assisted exploitation, the challenges of AI guardrails for security researchers, and what these developments mean for the future of threat intelligence.

You've rewritten Sparkles' instructions five times, and it still misses details or confirms orders too early. Another prompt tweak is just another guess. You use Agent Optimizer in Microsoft Foundry to turn that guesswork into a measured improvement loop. Start with a representative evaluation dataset and clear success criteria, score the current agent, then let the optimizer generate and evaluate candidate instructions. Compare the results against your baseline, review exactly what changed, and check the strongest candidate on held-out cases before shipping a new agent version. By the end, you'll know how to improve your agent's configuration, not retrain its model, with evidence that the changes actually help.
