A bunch of the WPF thought-leaders and experts ... blogging in one place.

« I'm gradually coming to the conclusion that software engineering is an idea whose time has come and gone. Software development is and always will be somewhat experimental. The actual software construction isn't necessarily experimental, but its conception is. And this is where our focus ought to be. It's where our focus always ought to have been. » __ Tom DeMarco

TweetSharp is a complete .NET library for microblogging platforms that allows you to write short and sweet expressions that convert automatically to web queries and fly to Twitter on your behalf.

The nursery rhyme looks familiar, but how realistic is it? Smalltalk and Self appear at first glance to be in danger of this kind of horror, especially Smalltalk where every object has a class, yet a Smalltalk statement consists largely of verbs. Yegge seems to have missed an important detail in his analogy - verbs are not functions - they are symbols (selectors) that resolve to a function (method) when they are looked up (depending on ... whatever - Smalltalk the class of the receiver, CLOS the types of the arguments and so on). C and FORTRAN don't have verbs, they just have functions (actions).

Remote editing with ssh - no need to tunnel X11 over ssh. This reminds me of a question that puzzles me: for those of us that use multiple machines, is there a failsafe way to have a master .emacs file for them all? Where do folks store it? On a web server, ftp, NFS directory, a favourite home directory, or a USB stick? Is there a low effort way to sync it: rsync, unison, a custom shell or Emacs lisp script, or a manual scp?

A very nice graphical front-end for 'du', in Common Lisp. I have tried it - it is trivial to use with SBCL. Version 0.3 works very well on the native Linux filesystem of my laptop, and on its VFAT (Windows) filesystem, provided I mount it with iocharset

The threshold pledge system is actually fairly common in everyday life. How often does a group of friends pool together money to buy something, or commit to doing something if the other friends make the same commitment?

Spark is a view engine for Asp.Net Mvc and Castle Project MonoRail frameworks. The idea is to allow the html to dominate the flow and the code to fit seamlessly.
