I'm still here (and have Atlas on target)

Published 24 April 06 10:40 AM | despos
It's been a while since last post and even more since last code-oriented post.

Playing tennis 3 times a week and writing articles and code is a challenge. And proves hard, especially if you also have to travel around. BTW, next stop is tomorrow morning--DevConnections Europe in Nice. Given the weather we're having in Rome, it's gonna be very nice in Nice this spring :)

Next big project? An intro book on Atlas (details on contents to come as soon as I get to know them <g>). Ship date? Only a few (read, few) months

Intro book? I hope it covers advanced control development using atlas in detail.

Hello Dino,
Hurry up with the book on Atlas. I am working on reading your Moving To Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 (Excerpted from Programming Microsoft ASP.NET 2.0 Core Reference) and once I finish it I will pick up the larger book. I have learned a lot from your writing and appreciate how you explain things in detail. Keep up the great writing.

Ouch! What a bad luck! I bet with friend of mine that your next book will be on WF (Workflow). Now I have to pay all those beers... :(

I'm looking for your new Atlas book anyway. Good luck!

Peter.

Hi, all! Some, then, generate spatial magnitudes from matter of thissort, others from the point -and the point is thought by them to benot 1 but something like 1-and from other matter like plurality, butnot identical with it; about which principles none the less the samedifficulties occur.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Nice design. Therefore it would seem to belong to different sciences toinvestigate these causes severally.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Nice design. Thereforethere is an essence only of those things whose formula is adefinition.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Cool design, but very light. And if the boundaries come intobeing and cease to be, from what do they come into being? A similaraccount may also be given of the 'now' in time; for this also cannotbe in process of coming into being or of ceasing to be, but yetseems to be always different, which shows that it is not asubstance.

Hi. one might say that there are three principles-the form, theprivation, and the matter.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Nice site. That bywhich it is changed is the immediate mover; that which is changed, thematter; that into which it is changed, the form.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Cool design, but very light. From what, then? Not from the indefinite dyad, for itsfunction was to double.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Hi, all! Further, the position must be similar in all the kinds of unity.Now 'unity' has just as many meanings as 'being'; so that since in thesphere of qualities the one is something definite-some particular kindof thing-and similarly in the sphere of quantities, clearly we must inevery category ask what the one is, as we must ask what the existentis, since it is not enough to say that its nature is just to be one orexistent.

# xanax said on May 19, 2006 12:58 PM:

Cool design, but very light. And why some things are perishable andothers imperishable, no one tells us; for they make all existingthings out of the same principles.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:05 AM:

Nice site. But the science which investigates causes isalso instructive, in a higher degree, for the people who instruct usare those who tell the causes of each thing.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:05 AM:

Good site. The reason is that this, most of all the senses, makes us knowand brings to light many differences between things.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:05 AM:

Nice site. If one were to take the notions we have about the wise man,this might perhaps make the answer more evident.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:06 AM:

Hi. For the science which it would be mostmeet for God to have is a divine science, and so is any science thatdeals with divine objects; and this science alone has both thesequalities; for (1) God is thought to be among the causes of all thingsand to be a first principle, and (2) such a science either God alonecan have, or God above all others.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:06 AM:

Good site. For not only with a view to action, but even when we are notgoing to do anything, we prefer seeing (one might say) to everythingelse.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:06 AM:

Nice site. But the science which investigates causes isalso instructive, in a higher degree, for the people who instruct usare those who tell the causes of each thing.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:06 AM:

Hi. Clearly then Wisdom is knowledgeabout certain principles and causes.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:06 AM:

Nice design. ALL men by nature desire to know.

# xanax said on May 21, 2006 12:06 AM:

Hi. And the most exact of the sciences are those which deal mostwith first principles; for those which involve fewer principles aremore exact than those which involve additional principles, e.g.arithmetic than geometry.
