Visual Studio Debugging Feature - Tracepoints(mark-dot-net.blogspot.com)

submitted by Rickasaurus(1225) 3 years, 4 months ago

A tracepoint is simply a breakpoint that will emit a debug trace statement when it is reached. It can emit things like the current function name, stack trace, or the contents of a variable. What's really cool is that you don't have to actually stop execution. This allows you to quickly add debugging statements without the need to check out your code or remember to take the Debug.WriteLine statements out afterwards. read more...

36 steps to success as technical lead(littletutorials.com)

submitted by danielstoner(335) 3 years, 9 months ago

The “tech lead” role can be treacherous at times. While the name implies “leadership“, most of the times it doesn’t come with implied authority like a manager role for example. It often happens that this role is in a no-man’s-land where it brings a lot of responsibility but not enough formal authority. In order to successfully help a project from this position one has to navigate through narrow and convoluted straits. read more...

LINQ to SQL - Am I Hitting The Database?(singingeels.com)

submitted by wisemx(8074) 3 years, 9 months ago

This post isn't necessarily about performance, but if you don't know how to answer that question ("am I hitting the database"), then you'll likely find yourself in a world of problems down the road when you're using LINQ to SQL. read more...

13 reasons for UML’s descent into darkness(littletutorials.com)

submitted by klasbas(250) 3 years, 9 months ago

UML lost the programmers. There is no doubt about it… in my mind. And when a software design technology loses the programmers it fades away no matter what the academia thinks. This happened because UML was pushed in a direction that most code writers don’t like: it started to look a lot like bureaucratic paper work. read more...
