An architect should code. Period (codebetter.com)

submitted by hl7coder(145) 4 years, 7 months ago

This has been said over and over again, but as long as it keeps happening it just has to be said again. A very common career path in IT "promotes" a coder over the years to a program manager with architect responsibilities. And being an architect they stop writing code themselves. The thing I see over and over again is that these people keep living in the programming environment in which they grew up. read more...

Calculating Baseball Statistics With LINQ(derekslager.com)

submitted by jacook11(350) 4 years, 8 months ago

Unfortunately, like most Microsoft-authored samples, they are focused around boring business use cases. Maybe it's just me, but I like seeing innovative language features demonstrating something other than calculating the average price for in-stock products (yawn). read more...

Good bye NUnit.Behave hello Behave#(lostechies.com)

submitted by agilejoe(860) 4 years, 10 months ago

Most of you who read my blog know that I have been working on NUnit.Behave which was meant to mirror the functionality of rbehave in .Net. My initial spike was a success but it required that you inherit from an base NUnit Test Fixture. Even I wouldn't use it! So I spent some time decoupling it from NUnit into it's own framework. At the same time my idea caught on and Jimmy Bogard decided to do the same thing. Well to make a long story short we have been collaborating on the differences between our two frameworks over the last week and have decided to go with Behave#. I love OSS, where else could this be possible! read more...
