For almost 8 days now, I have not posted a single answer on the newsgroups. I haven't seen any of the questions on the m icrosoft.public.dotnet.framework.adonet in over a week because I haven't really had a chance to look at it. I'm in complete withdrawal...

The Real Deal on Connection Management

Again Angel has posted some pearls of wisdom that should be included in the Bible of ADO.NET Speaking of leaks - I couldn't resist "Why don't they make any computers in England? They couldn't figure out how to make them leak oil" Any owner of a
Totured by Bill O'Reilly on the way home

One of the biggest differences between my life this week and last week is that I now drive to work. I get up around 6:00 and I don't get home until 7:00. I work with some really cool folks but it's definitely a work-a-holic culture (which is cool b/c...

It's slowly sinking in regarding drafting design docs. We keep it real at http://www.TiBASolutions.com . I mean, I can get docs others have written and code a whole damned project from start to finish. THat's the easy part. Writing the things and doing...
If this van's a rockin - get the hell out of the way

Damn, not sure what kind of hell could be raised in Seth Dempsey's Van but it sure does look like it has a lot of potential.
And it was written by a VB Programmer

No, I”m not starting a language war or being a language snob - well not really. It just seems that whenever I see something that's really dumb it so often is done in VB. That doesn't mean VB is inferior, and VB.NET = C# for all practical purposes...
First Day on the Job
Published Mon, Aug 23 2004 20:52 |
William
So far so good. Met the project manager and spent about 2 hours with him. Very smart, very cool, very laid back - and very informed. All things I look for in a boss. Was a little overwhelmed with Documentation but that's not a biggy. I know I'm too quick...
Another really interesting link compliments of Andy
Published Sun, Aug 22 2004 21:10 |

Andy posted this a while back on floating point accuracy he can't use .NET, at least in its current state. Anyway, he's always good for some really thought provoking insights and has the links to back it up. Here is another example - and a great topic...
Open Source Myths Revisited

Like a lot of folks, I think OSS is pretty cool but that's about as far as I go. I, like most people, don't like using stuff that sucks and if there's something better that I can afford, I'll usually opt for it. With OSS often times you have a choice...
I want one!

I love my iMATE but this has really got me drooling. Just what I need - another expensive gadget to replace another expensive gadget I just got that does more than everything I ever wanted it to do.
If this Van's a Rockin
Published Sat, Aug 21 2004 20:44 |
William
My mother and I had a debate like we often do, about an absolutely silly topic and I need your help. When I was a youth in the early 70s, many things imprinted themselves on my little brain. One of which was seeing vans with “If this Van's a rockin...

Just got the invite from Amazon to take part in the Beta for the 4.0 WS Release. There's a lot of cool stuff in it - if you're interested, I'd encourage you participate. So far I've used Google's Web Service (API) and Amazon's and while they are still...
This is too cool

Casey is the one that first posted this, but Julia Lerman posted something that's beyond cool. Check it out for yourself.
Casey outdid himself again.

Well, http://www.brains-n-brawn.com has raised the bar so high, nothing he does amazes me anymore - but this newest piece of his is f****** awesome. Outside of the technical knowledge that it takes to pull this off, just thinking of the idea is pretty...
Updated reading list
Published Thu, Aug 19 2004 23:09 |
William
Well, finally got a little time to get through a few new reads. Two books come to mind. Sort of switched gears this time and focused on stuff I only knew about marginally or stuff I didn't spend a lot of time concerned with. First on the list was .NET...
A lot going on
Published Tue, Aug 17 2004 6:49 |

It seems like it was only yesterday that .NET was still in Beta and I was spending every free second I had buying/reading new books trying to learn as much about .Net as I could and do it as quickly as possible. It seems like just yesterday that I started...
SqlCe on the Full Framework
Published Wed, Aug 11 2004 17:11 |
William
Not too long ago Casey brought up the question of whether or not SqlCeResultSet will work on the Tablet for instance. Microsoft said it will. Sam brought it up again and really has my curiousity piqued. The only question was HOW TO DO IT. To that end...
