My previous employer used a tool to attach databases that were located on a substituted path. I needed this conversion logic in another kind of environment and used the almighty google. So I hit an article on Avner Kashtan 's blog titled Query SUBST information...
Ayende blogged about the missing the SVN support at codeplex and that there is a vote for SVN support at codeplex . If codeplex had SVN support then I probably would start using codeplex too. So vote for it if you think that it would be a usefull addition...
Today I had a very annoying issue. I was debugging an application on an VS2005 instance of a computer that I did not prepare / installed myself. I wanted the "break on all exceptions" behaviour in the debugger. Normally you just go to the menu and select...
I found this really nice little to add a string as a resource . You just select a string in the editor, right click to get the context menu and select to add it as a resource. You then get a dialog in which you can specify the key value and the resourcefile...
Today I was reading the website statistics with Google Analytics . It shows that about 2,5% of our visits come from Safari . I only tested our design with Internet Explorer and Firefox and it looks great on those browsers. I remembered a website which...
Sometimes you are debugging an application and want to query the database while the database connection still has not committed (or rollbacked) the transaction. So you fire up the query analyzer just to find out that you cannot see the modifications yet...
I created a repository at opensvn.csie.org today for the website I created with a friend for the volleybal club. We really needed version control because we are both working on the project at the moment plus that I really don't like all those *.old *...

Just google a bit with the keywords compression plus viewstate and lots of articles are to be found about this subject like this one . The problem is that in most situations programmers are doing something that the webserver already can do for you. Not...
Today a collegue had me flabbergasted by using the & operator in a boolean comparison like the following example. return x & y; Both x and y were booleans and I said "Hey you just forgot an &! A single & is a bitwise operator.". And he...
I failed for the Microsoft 70-300 examen this afternoon. I am disappointed in the result because I expected to pass. When I saw the score it felt very weird to see I had failed. I really don't have a clue which questions I did wrong.... so it is almost...
Yesterday I posted about a news scoop at Ars-Technica referring Game studio express . Microsoft already posted a press bulletin about this at their site ( here ). But I wasn't aware of this. Rob Tillie mentioned in the comments that he doesn't think that...
Jeff Atwood just posted a very interesting item titled Separating Programming Sheep from Non-Programming Goats in other words about how to find out if a person has enough potential to become a good developer. Its a very interesting read but after reading...
I just received a notification that NDepend 2.0 beta is released by Patrick Smacchie. NDepend analyzes your dotnet 1.x assemblies and outputs a huge set of code metrics based on the IL. It can also create a nice dependancy chart of your assemblies where...
