Heading home - and not coming back to the office until 2009. Tiem to start feeling christmassy
We've decided to stop applying occam's razor until he brings out a new one with three more blades, which vibrates.
Reviewing and refactoring some of my code, realised I've become a bit 'var'-happy. I blame JavaScript.
@dstrawberrygirl I'm sure if they'd sung anything to the tune of the imperial march he'd have happily joined in
One of the temp assemblies loaded in my debugger is called 'aghznaai'. I'm sure that must mean something in the black tongue of Mordor.
@RoryBecker Totally agree; T4 is VS's best-kept secret. I've got a .tt right here that churns out an 8000-line API wrapper for me. Love it.
Presumably the T4 template stuff will be helpful for non-aspx view engines also?
@DaveSussman apart from that though it all looks good. Love the T4 scaffolding stuff; no-codebehind for views is sensible.
@hmobius I just assume that when scottgu blogs, everybody reads it before doing anything else. http://is.gd/cu1r
Reading up on MVC RC changes; can anyone explain the benefit of expression-based helpers? p=>p.ProductName vs. Model.ProductName as param.
@dstrawberrygirl the trouble with a really stripped down UI: you tend to assume that the option just won't be there, so don't go looking.
Christmas shopping online; not feeling inspired.
@mikehadlow Wow. Imagine a beowulf cluster of those... :)
Upgraded to 4Gigs RAM. FEAR ME! I can now remember four billion things at once!
Right - time to head home. Hopefully tonight won't take 2 1/2 hours... http://tinyurl.com/5v83tj
@offwhitemke usual British winter; just above freezing, lot of fog and morning frost. Come to think of it, that's a usual British summer too
@kareena if you were REALLY paranoid, you'd have got 7/10 like me. I put the three 'legit' mails as 'unknown'.
@offwhitemke Now I understand why the MacBook Air exists - to make the normal MacBook look cheap :)
First Honda out of F1 in Brackley, now Subaru stop rallying with ProDrive in Banbury... not a good fortnight for North Oxfordshire.
Because of the unique way the BBC is funded...: http://tinyurl.com/5fkdrf
