Regex.IsMatch(pattern: @"^\d*$", input: "123456" ) Is so much clearer. This is a good example of why I wish C# supported named parameters rather than ordered parameters.

Regex.IsMatch(pattern: @”^\d*$”, input: “123456″ )

Is so much clearer.

Not long ago, I had to update our web-based application late one night and I thoughtfully set our "we're down for maintenance" page as our start page in IIS, even though the update would only take a few minutes. I was going to do this the proper way, even for a minor update! I was pretty proud of myself and my adherence to good practices until late the next morning when I realized I had never removed the maintenance page as the default page and our support staff had been buried with phone calls with people asking why they couldn't log in. Ooooops. Hehe..been there; done that.
