I'm not shy about telling people that I'm not much of a computer science kind of guy. It's not that I don't respect computer science or understand it, I'm just not one to get academic over it to the point of not building anything. And while I can't always...
(Repost from my personal blog .) This is another post in a series about rebuilding one of my Web sites, which has been around for 12 years. I hope to relaunch soon. More: Part I: Evolution, and death to WCF Part II: Hot data objects Part III: The architecture...
I've noticed that I write software in one of three modes: For myself: Shortcuts, less testing, not well-factored. For myself but in public: Mostly POP Forums , which I try to avoid letting it suck since others will use it and see the code. For sharing...
There was a fairly awesome pissing match between “Uncle” Bob Martin and, well, everyone, on Twitter today. Twitter isn’t a great venue for this kind of thing, because it’s hard to read and hard to make a solid point, but basically Bob suggested that you...

I've been thinking a lot about all of the frameworks we have now to use with our, uh, frameworks. There's a framework to solve every problem. Dependency injection frameworks are of particular interest to a lot of people because they make unit testing...
After about two years of using SourceGear 's Vault, I switched to Subversion for source control. I was using Vault because it was free, Web-based, integrated with Visual Studio and was generally familiar. Now I need to get more people into the loop...
I was thinking about stuff that I need to code for my sites, and was thinking about how I'd like a place for the public to track bugs. Yeah, stuff like that already exists, but it'd be nice to have something more basic. Then I realized it might...
