Sam points to a page containing a (the?) list of feature packs and tools for Windows Server 2003. Very handy.
Heck. Yea.
The honorable Mr. Fowler notes that JetBrains has announced that it is working on a plugin to VS.NET. This is fantastic. I've read great things about IntelliJ; hopefully they'll fill some of the holes in VS.NET.
I rescind the comment from my previous post. This is the most exciting news of the day!
There's been a surprising lack of information (relatively) about performance in .NET, especially considering how long it's been out. The CLR perf team now has a page on GDN and they claim it will be updated regularly. Rejoice!
Unfortunately, like many other interesting areas on GDN, there is no RSS feed. I guarantee that by tomorrow I'll forget this page exists. Maybe it's time to try to figure out how to subscribe to web pages in IE...
I subscribe to a lot of email newsletters. Most of them are fair to mediocre, but one of them really stands out as an interesting read every time: Windows & .NET Magazine's Windows Tips and Tricks. It's an FAQ-style email that's sent once a week or so and the topics are all over the place. There's almost always at least one thing I find interesting. This week's topics include:
- Why do I receive a file-copy error when I perform an in-place upgrade of Windows Server 2003?
- Why does my Windows XP machine's CPU usage climb to 100 percent when I right-click a file or folder within Windows Explorer?
- Why does the Advanced Power Management (APM) tab appear in the Control Panel Power Options applet on only some of my machines?
- Where can I get the Windows Server 2003 domain rename tool?
- How can I add a user to Active Directory (AD) from the command line without using a script?
- How can I remove a user from Active Directory (AD) from the command line without using a script?
Subscription details are here. Enjoy!
