Ripple, the utility that saves you from your personal NuGet hell - 3 views

  •  
    Imagine that you have a complicated dependency graph, and you've just modified a source of one of the assemblies, or you just got the freshest bits from the source control. Now you want to use the local version in your project, while you wait for your modification to make it to NuGet, but you still want to use the other dependencies managed by NuGet ... and merge the recent updates to the ones that you build locally.

Building Windows for the ARM processor architecture - Building Windows 8 - MSDN Blogs - 5 views

  • apps from Microsoft
    • Joel Bennett
       
      These are "apps from Microsoft" ... not necessarily Office. Note that Office 15 doesn't include Outlook!
  • desktop versions
  • WOA supports the Windows desktop experience including File Explorer, Internet Explorer 10 for the desktop, and most other intrinsic Windows desktop features
    • Joel Bennett
       
      I can't decide if this is a goot thing or not. It seems like it supports the Windows desktop BUT NOT 3rd party desktop apps -- is this just because they couldn't get around to rewriting all the utility apps in Metro style (and recompiling was easier), or because they actually want to support deskop apps?
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • integrated, end-to-end products—hardware, firmware and WOA software
  • Partners will provide WOA PCs as integrated, end-to-end products that include hardware, firmware, and Windows on ARM software
    • Joel Bennett
       
      Read this as: WOA devices are not user-serviceable, you won't be able to sideload apps, and you deffinitely shouldn't expect to be able to build your own from parts.
  • Within the Windows desktop, WOA includes desktop versions of the new Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and OneNote, codenamed “Office 15”. WOA will be a no-compromise product for people who want to have the full benefits of familiar Office productivity software and compatibility, an industry-leading hardware-accelerated web browser, apps from Microsoft, and access to apps in the Windows Store.

      "No compromise" ... that's certainly one spin on it.

Kanban Isn't the Answer to Bad Product Ownership - LeadingAgile - 6 views

  •  
    When teams can't get well groomed product backlog, it is almost impossible to do Scrum. Teams spend too much time figuring out what to build during sprint planning and not enough time figuring out how to build it. They never really consider if the stories were estimable, nor discuss how they could swarm to get the stories done earlier in the sprint. Teams don't work as teams, daily standup meetings suck, and teams miss commitment after commitment.
