  • 3 Years

    Today is 3 years since I started working with the company I work today. It's being a long journey from figuring out what I want, till realizing what I am and need to be. The team has accepted all of my wildest ideas about the code and was very tolerant to the fact that I cannot wait to get something done. We've made a long way.

  • Google Shortcut Keys - Awesome

    For all keyboard junkies out there - if you are also hooked on Google products (GMail, Reader, Calendar, etc), don't miss the option of using GMail with keyboard shortcuts. The are awesome. I loved the navigation shortcut (combination of pressing first G and then another key, neat).

  • Two Loosely Coupled Code - Part 2

    In the

    I raised the question of "Too loosely coupled design". There's a lot to discuss about it, and I am not going more time on it, except showing one more sample that IMHO shows the benefits and outcomes of the principle being applies, or consequences of not doing so.

  • OCP Principle

    Jeremy Miller (aka The Shade Tree Developer) has a very good article about OCP principle printed by MSDN magazine. This is a valuable article for any developer that strives to work according to law of "measure twice, cut once", and not just cook spaghetti. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/magazine/cc546578.aspx 

  • Going To See My Family

    This is not a technical post. Nor it's related to software development or the theory behind it. It is a pure human post about principles that are much more basic and important in life then anything else - family.

  • Windsor Container - Bug

    Today run into what I think is a bug in Windsor Container. After googling a bit, found a post that is similar to what I have - need to have a constructor in implementer component (ctor(string)) and configure Windsor to call it, rather than overloaded version of constructor. For some reason Windsor is not going to the default constructor.

  • Whiteboard vs. Excel - Part 2

    I have posted before about the subject, and there was a strong hold on both sides (for and against). Yesterday I run into a blog that mentioned a software called Mingle 2.0 - obviously not the first version according to the name, but I have never heard of it before, so it might be a naming game (all the Web 2.0 thing) - who knows? And probably someone knows. If you a successful survivor of the software or have  a few words to drop, leave your comment after the beep.
