Hi, I'm Jeff

I lead Microsoft's Open Source Programs Office. My team partners with experts across Microsoft and the industry to make sure that we have everything in place for Microsoft engineers and businesses to do everything from safely using open source while complying with license obligations and contributing back to projects to producing open source projects such as TypeScript and Visual Studio Code and building healthy communities.

Supporting the open source ecosystem

I care deeply about open source, licensing, and digital freedom. I proudly support these important non-profits personally on an annual basis:

I also support many initiatives that I believe about relating to housing affordability, regional charities in the greater Seattle, Washington area, and more.

GitHub at Scale

Starting in 2011, I was a part of the team that started Microsoft's journey to releasing open source on GitHub, and ever since, it's been a blast helping teams at Microsoft use, contribute to, and release open source at scale.

I was responsible for hacking together the early enterprise-scale GitHub tooling that we use at Microsoft to let our employees, interns, and vendors join our GitHub orgs without having to work through an admin while providing guardrails and help. Today we call that project the Microsoft Open Source Management Portal.

4thandmayor-ancient's Issues

Count of "done this" incorrect

Hello,

Currently all of the "done this" counts are broken stating No one has done this. However I know some of of these tips have been done. This seems to happen for almost every tip viewed

Implement geo location diagnostics interface

This will help to diagnose issues with the underlying geo location system.

Consider a good/bad indicator that provides quick information and store that on the net.

Need to update the privacy policy for the feature and to respect users here. Also consider a more advanced option...

High. When user tries to checkin and gets a bad location fix then collect:

  1. Lat/Long returned by Location API
  2. Was Wifi turned on โ€“ available via NetworkInformation APIs
  3. IP Address (if available) โ€“ may be on server side as part of HTTP call
  4. DateTime
  5. Any free form text that user wants to enter
  6. Venues that were shown the user

Image loses aspect ratio when uploaded with app

After uploading an image to a check-in, I noticed it looked much more squished. It doesn't appear to be just the way FourSquare is displaying the images, because after downloaded the processed image I can see the ratios are actually different.

Upon inspection I can see that it went from about a 1:1.7 (3404 x 2000px)to a 1:1.33 (720 x 540 px) AR.

Does the resizing occur on the app's side or server-side?

Below are the images in question.

Add an app tour

  • Tour experience for upgrade users
  • Need to build the underlying control as well
