While talking to JP, I have mentioned that everyone needs to have once in a while what I call a 'motivation injection'. Being a software developer, this 'injection' means a lot. It gives you the drive to lift yourself to the next level by just realizing there's a next level. So when the last time you had you shot? :)

I had/will not have time over the week of the training course to sort out all the notes I am taking while participating at the session. Saying that, I want to make it clear that these are uncensored  thoughts of mine at a crazy pace of the course with tones of new material flying around between 0800 and 2400 (with a few little breaks in between).

JP has instructed the group to make certain things before the training course will start. So what is required to do the job?

Counting days to start the session.

I used to be a big fan of Assembly (x86) in the past when doing graphics for the ancient 320x200x256 and later when lecturing about 80x86 to practical engineers. These days I don't do that anymore, but I think knowing the basics does make sense.

Let me first clarify - John Bristowe is a great speaker, but what he was presenting - shame on Microsoft Canada.The topics promised so much, the *real* thing was so disappointing. A few samples:

This is weird. An assembly with web controls and embedded resources was working fine in WebSite project but not in WebApp project. The request is returned with OK response (200), but absolutely empty. Will post solution once find it :)

Today I'm happy to be a team leader. The reason - I managed to convince the management to get ReSharper for all our developers. I'm more than convinced that developers will find it more than useful. The problem is where to send them to have the best and quickest tutorials of the most useful features. If you have links and don't mind to share - grate.
