Solution Wide Error Analysis - Someone is reading my blog

I blogged about ReSharpers 'Solution Wide Error Analysis' before. Unfortunately the feature was not released in the 3.0 release of ReSharper. But now it's here in the 3.1 release:

JetBrains announces the feature on their .NET-Blog.

And here it comes: There, at the bottom of their announcement, they reference my blog! I feel honored ...

Yet another Addiction

Long ago, I realized that I am an addict. But recently I had a look at my browser and discovered yet another addiction!

How many times is Google present? I make daily usage of iGoogle, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Reader, Picasa, Blogger ... at least del.icio.us seems not to be infiltrated yet ...

Recently I seem to notice an increasing popularity of Google Code. More and more projects seem to choose it as host. Guice, Moq, FEST, testngroove, jpboodhoo ... just to name a few.

I exactly remember the first time somebody told me to use Google, and I was like "Gugl? Huh?". This was less than 10 years ago.

Should I be concerned?

Fallacy of Code Generation

Why is code generation bad? Because once you start with code gen, people seem to forget that generated code should fall under all the laws & rules of code anywhere. -Ayende

About Side-Effects

Models are forever... ...data is a happy side-effect. - David Laribee

This quote is from a VERY cool and visually polished presentation about Domain Driven Design. Even if it doesn't provide much technical content, the eye-candy is really great...

Alter Ego

It is always funny to search the web with your own name. There is definitely some strange attraction in the thought of discovering your alter ego, your private Tyler Durden.

I am quite content with my hits:
My CV on top... ok,
... Patrick will be proud to have his appearance ...
... then some references from groups and schools ...
... well, the badminton-ranking I am really not proud of ...
... then a movie ...
... then ... wait ... a movie? ...
...
OUCH!!!!!!
