Deklarit and Remoting
Published Mon, Sep 27 2004 20:11 | William
I just went through my Deklarit Library and found the unreal support that http://www.deklarit.com has for Remoting. And I learned a few pretty cool tricks to boot. If nothing else, it's probably well worth your time to download the trial just to check...
An interesting piece on architecture
Published Sun, Sep 26 2004 20:04 | William
From the first time I used it, I though www.deklarit.com was a superb product. Originally I had thought tools like this were all hype because I had a bad experience using this really lame 4GL called Visual DataFlex (and if I paid everyone that's ever...

Ok, that's going to be officially the way I represent myself because, well, I'm fat and I'm a piker by smart standards when compared to the Man . KC just posted this as if the other one wasn't cool enough. Why do I have the feeling that there will be...

Well, it's not exactly like proof is necessary, it's a foregone conclusion. A week ago he starts reading up on Neural Nets and now, well, check it out for yourself.

Remoting?
Published Sat, Sep 25 2004 23:27 | William
Well, since I've started my new company , I've went from knowing squat about Remoting to being able to hold my own with it. We have some extremely kick a33 people there and a lot of what I've worked with is part of existing framewors, but screw it, if...

Well, I got an email from www.kasamba.com indicating there was some money to be made... Can anyone help me figure out what price to bid at [It was in the C# category]? (P.S. Technically the answer is 'No' and I'd be willing to take Rupees for it - but...
"It certainly can't be my fault"
Published Thu, Sep 23 2004 1:55 | William
I guess I'm being a little fussy, but one thing that is really starting to get old is people in newsgroups that bitch about technological limitations of things that they don't understand. Recently I read a post in a .NEt group where a guy pretty much...

Just got a copy of Best Kept Secrets in .NET and haven't been able to put it down. 207 pages of a33 kicking. Finally someone put together a great reference of keyboard shortcuts and a great discusssion on using the IDE. It's a boring subject but sure...

Published Mon, Sep 20 2004 19:09 | William
Ok, part of me thinks this is one of my friends goofing on me. This is literally the 7th request I've gotten in the last 2 years from someone who 1) Says they don't know how to code or are new to coding 2) Want code samples 3) Don't specify what they...

More on Edward Nilges
Published Sun, Sep 19 2004 23:41 | William
So last week I wrote a little blurb on Edward Nilges and his book that I can't say enough good things about. So it was pretty cool to see a guy like him reading my blog and posting some responses. Well, the more I read the more i think he needs pressured...
Three New Books
Published Sun, Sep 19 2004 22:32 | William
I got the itch in the bookstore and had to get some non-tech stuff. So I gave in and made a few non-tech purchases: 1) Peace Kills by P.J. O'Rourke. Started reading it Saturday morning and have it finished already. It's not as funny as Parliament of Whores...
Politics and blogging...
Published Sun, Sep 19 2004 22:15 | William
I get home tonight and head over to one of my favorite sites . Noticed that Kirk was making the point that politics has no place in Blogdom . That's a pretty naive point in many regards although I don't disagree with the spirit of what he's saying. First...

Well, I'm car shopping and at first really wanted a new Passat - that TipTronic transmission was just too cool for me. So then I went to the CarMax and they didn't have a Passat - but they did have a BMW Z3. I really really wanted it and the salesman...
Developing .NET Enterprise Applications - John Kanalakis
Published Sun, Sep 19 2004 11:51 | William
Well I've already had a bunch of requests to borrow Nilges' book on writing your own .NET language and I've reluctantly agreed to lend it out. Not because I'm some tightwad with my books, but well, because of my girlfriend. I've moved back to SC recently...
This looks interesting...

Well, it looks like someone is coming out with a documentary about none other than Michael Moore himself. I saw the link on Drudge and clicked on it just to see what it was. There's some seriously discomformting footage in the trailer. I was at the Video...
Binary Serialization of DataSets by Dino E
Published Fri, Sep 17 2004 12:45 | William
Even if I tried really hard, I don't think I'd ever be able to make myself not like something Dino Esposito has written. I know I know, he wouldn't be at Wintellect if he wasn't a total bad a33 but still, he's the man at a lot of different stuff and it...

Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler
Published Wed, Sep 15 2004 22:51 | William
All I can say is that Build Your Own .NET Language and Compiler by Edward Nilges rocks. I had to write an amazon review b/c the people that trashed it were out of their f----g minds. http://www.apress.com hasn't put out a '1' Star book that I've come...
