      Now if I told you this, and asked you to vote for the truth, would you be able to figure out what to do? *hint* you will need an OpenID to log into Jyte. PS I did not go to New Zealand. /kingdon

  • Windows' enterprise adoption declined 3.7 percent, going from 98.6 percent in January to 94.9 percent in December. Mac OS gained 3 percent, going from 1.2 to 4.2 percent in the same time frame. Linux gained 0.5 percent in 2007.

      Yeah, that's more like it -- they're going to be reporting 300% growth in the enterprise, I'm sure.

    Windows use in the enterprise (it's traditional stronghold) has declined almost 4% to about 95% in the last year ... It's just a tiny sliver, but the real question is: is it enough to make Apple start catering to their enterprise customers?

    Google does R&D but has no dedicated researchers or formal lab organization. Every engineer is considered part of the virtual R&D team and is expected to donate 20% of his time - about one day a week - to research. Xerox takes the traditional approach, investing in a separate R&D function that includes basic research ... what makes each approach successful?

    Not really a fair comparison -- what has Google's R&D produced? The Android?

  • I know where you live anti-pattern
  • Liskov Substitution Principle
  • the easier it is to test a class, the more likely a developer will test it.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • Don't worry: the code will always tell you what to do. Just listen.
  • The key points here are that a class is only a singleton if all applications treat it exactly the same and if its clients can use the class without an application context.
  • "[c]ode wants to be simple."
  • Fabien Cadet on 17 Mar 09
     
    "singletons are unnecessarily difficult to test and may make strong assumptions about the applications that will use them [...] I know where you live anti-pattern [...] Liskov Substitution Principle". "To decide whether a class is truly a singleton: * Will every application use this class exactly the same way? (exactly is the key word) * Will every application ever need only one instance of this class? (ever and one are the key words) * Should the clients of this class be unaware of the application they are part of?"

Fabulous Adventures In Coding : The Stack Is An Implementation Detail, Part One - 0 views

blogs.msdn.com/...-an-implementation-detail.aspx

clr cli .NETGeneral c# memory allocation

shared by Matteo Spreafico on 14 Aug 09 - Cached
  • Almost every article I see that describes the difference between value types and reference types explains in (frequently incorrect) detail about what “the stack” is and how the major difference between value types and reference types is that value types go on the stack.
  • I find this characterization of a value type based on its implementation details rather than its observable characteristics to be both confusing and unfortunate. Surely the most relevant fact about value types is not the implementation detail of how they are allocated, but rather the by-design semantic meaning of “value type”, namely that they are always copied “by value”.
  • Of course, the simplistic statement I described is not even true. As the MSDN documentation correctly notes, value types are allocated on the stack sometimes. For example, the memory for an integer field in a class type is part of the class instance’s memory, which is allocated on the heap.
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • As long as the implementation maintains the semantics guaranteed by the specification, it can choose any strategy it likes for generating efficient code
  • That Windows typically does so, and that this one-meg array is an efficient place to store small amounts of short-lived data is great, but it’s not a requirement that an operating system provide such a structure, or that the jitter use it. The jitter could choose to put every local “on the heap” and live with the performance cost of doing so, as long as the value type semantics were maintained
  • I would only be making that choice if profiling data showed that there was a large, real-world-customer-impacting performance problem directly mitigated by using value types. Absent such data, I’d always make the choice of value type vs reference type based on whether the type is semantically representing a value or semantically a reference to something.
