Should there be a New and Notable on Thanksgiving morning at this hour? No. Why is it that babies feel inclined to wake up at 5:48AM and want to party and jump around on my only day off in months? Of course, an hour later, Heather is sleeping away and I am left here, wide awake to look around.
Drew comments on the Steve Gilmour crap that is supposed to be an article Can Microsoft's Longhorn Pull it Off? This is supposed to be the famous Steve Gilmour and the best [sic] that Silicon Valley has to offer? Thats scary as this FUD is about the misinformed pathetic article I have ever seen. As Drew said, “He should be fired immediately or at the very least stop covering technologies he doesn't understand.“
On a brighter note, Andrew has some great Rotor stuff and links! Through his comments. I found the blog of Joel Pobar. an SSCLI PM who announces Rotor RFP 2.0. Wahoo!
Build tool Hippo.NET 1.4.0 released. This is great stuff. If you think VS.NET is all you need to do development you are sadenly mistaken. If you want to do real software development you need things like this, NAnt, NUnit and other tools that foster CodeTheUnitTestFirst and Continuous Integration.
Five Testers from VC say “Shh, Don't Tell Anyone“ but I can't resist! Stan Lippman, the god next to Stroustrup in C++, and working for Microsoft the past couple of years, is now blogging! This is the guy who thought me, and many thousands C++ programming through his classic Primer book. His first blog, The Revised C++ Language Design Supporting .NET -- Part 1 is a must read.
