  • Designing a language is hard, and M won't change that

    I was a bit surprised about the large scale of the positive hype around 'M' in Oslo. Fortunately, Roger Alsing wrote a 'Back to reality' post about M which stood out as a single critical remark against the sea of positivism. I like it when someone chooses to be the more sceptical voice in the crowd:...

  • Is BDUF really BDUF?

    Justing Etheredge posted a great article about that Design Up Front (DUF) is something else than Big Design Up Front (BDUF). He discusses the misunderstanding that just because BDUF is considered harmful in a lot of projects, it's not said that DUF is too and one should just jump in, start hammering...

  • The evil of the Office UI ribbon license

    For the next major version of a certain application I'm working on (gee, what might that be ) I'm researching some UI frameworks and techniques. In the past few months I've spend most of my time working on application support library code, language designs, algorithm design etc. etc. (more on that in...

  • VB.NET: Beware of the 'Aggregate' keyword (updated)

    UPDATE I tested this initially with EmployeeID and noticed the strange behavior. Writing this blogpost I thought the max of the employeeID was a little artificial, so I changed that in OrderDate. But... what happened (see my reply to this blogpost below in the comments) ? When o.OrderDate is used, the...

  • Linq to Sql support added to LLBLGen Pro

    Imagine, you're sitting at your desk and you're using the Linq to Sql designer in VS.NET 2008 and you have, say, 50 entities in your model. You're happy about how things are progressing. It took a while to get the model set up, considering the wicked table and field names they cooked up in the DBA dungeon...

  • Developing Linq to LLBLGen Pro, part 12

    (Updated Wednesday 30-jan-2008). It was mentioned that we would implement 'Skip' as well, although we already had a paging method added, TakePage(). After carefull analysis, we decided not to implement Skip for now. The reason is that it can lead to confusing queries, while paging is what the developer...

  • Developing Linq to LLBLGen Pro, part 10

    (This is part of an on-going series of articles, started here ) Whoa, almost a month without an update! The truth is that I wanted to finish GroupBy support before posting another article in this ongoing series, and it took almost 3 weeks to get it right. But more on that later, first some easy stuff...

  • Categorizing Software Engineers

    Jeff Atwood posted a nice blog post today about The Two Types of Programmers . I always like to refer to programmers by using the term 'Software Engineer', when they're software engineering. The term 'programmer' is often associated with a 'code monkey' (human code generator), and Jeff's post isn't about...
