Painless Caching, Memoization for .NET(explodingcoder.com)

submitted by spoulson(327) 2 years, 3 months ago

When searching for .NET discussions of I-don't-even-remember, I somehow came across Dustin Campbell's blog post about automatic memoization with C#. I instantly remembered first reading about this topic in Higher Order Perl, which at the time introduced me to this handy technique using the delegate pattern. After looking over Dustin's code, I liked the simplicity of wrapping any delegate with a single method call. This makes for an academic discussion, but I thought this could be much more practical if we abstracted the concept a bit more. read more...

System.Reactive or the .NET Reactive Extensions (Rx) – Concepts and Fi(amazedsaint.blogspot.com)

submitted by amazedsaint(835) 2 years, 6 months ago

Consider how you handle a simple MouseMove operation in .NET using an event handler. Let us take a step back, and examine this a bit closer - The mouse cursor location’s value is changing over a period of time, and an event notifies you about that. You may see the data we receive from these events as pieces of data that you (the target) receive from a source over a period of time – a sequence. Also, you may instantly notice that the same is happening when you iterate over a collection, probably using a for loop. In that case too, you are receiving values from a source over a period of time. Or, in both cases, the target is receiving the pieces of data from a source over a period of time through some signal.... read more...

Why are thread safe collections so hard? (blogs.msdn.com)

submitted by gavinjoyce(25.7k) 3 years, 3 months ago

"Writing a collection which is mutable, thread safe and usable is an extremely difficult process. At least that’s what you’ve likely been told all through your schooling. But then you get out on the web and see a multitude of thread safe lists, maps and queues. If it’s so hard, why are there so many examples?" read more...

You're Doing It Wrong(codinghorror.com)

submitted by spoulson(327) 3 years, 3 months ago

Templating tends to break down because it forces you to treat code and markup as two different and fundamentally incompatible things. We spend all our time awkwardly switching between markup-land and code-land using escape sequences. They're always fighting each other -- and us. read more...
