Anti-agile hatemail
Today I received through the contact form on this blog a hate-mail from a guy who called himself 'Ryan'. Ryan used a fake, non-existing email address so the only way to respond to him is via my blog, hence this post. Let's look at the email first: From...

Alternative Rock
Ever heard the term 'Alternative rock' ? It's a term for rock music which isn't mainstream. Or something. Anyway, read the wikipedia page for the fine print . I'm a metal fan (despite the pile of trance house music I've created in a dark past ) and once...

More on the .NET sourcecode and its 'Reference License'
Today I read an interesting post by Arne Vajhøj in the C# newsgroup. He brought up the point that in the Java research license, which was the license the Java sourcecode was released under before it was released under the GPL, a clause was added...

Don't look at the sourcecode of .NET licensed under the 'Reference license'
Update: If you think I should be shouting 'awesome' and similar words like most of the .NET community members, please take a walk down the path of 'licenses', something you all should be familiar with in every cell in your body, but by the look of all...

Thou Shall Not Work Around Technical Limitations! (whatever they are)
Dan Fernandez responded to my recent blogpost with a follow-up on the Jamie vs. Microsoft soap. He used an analogy to try to make his point: To paraphrase an analogy from that post, this would be comparable to a 3rd party company working around the technical...

Look! Microsoft is working hard on building a community!
See it in action here . Frankly, it doesn't really matter who's right: Jamie or the tie-with-suit (a real software engineer, you can obviously tell) at Microsoft who started this crusade. What matters is this: (the quote is from Ian Ringrose ) "Is it...
