there was a time when community leadership could have proactively managed the lunatic fringe. too late. bravo alt.net. http://blogcoward.com/archive...
@tpope it's a short form of "transmogrify" http://www.merriam-webster.com/diction...
@kevindente if data lives forever, do we believe that it's native, inherent representation is rows and columns
@albacorebuild why is it "auto" configuration rather than just configuration? is asp.net configuration also "auto" configuration?
@loudej which means, inevitably, that these folks don't realize how much it costs the whole effort from them to continue doing what they do
@loudej it's geek autism that blocks programmers from seeing that their understanding comes from familiarity rather than workability
@loudej code doesn't have to be learnable if you already know what it does, how it does it, and where to find it
@loudej there's nothing more contrary to usability and workability than using memory to know where things are and how they work
@loudej the programmers who usually write the most indecipherable code are often the ones who have the best memory
@loudej a good memory is absolutely a handicap when it comes to creating elegance
clarity and simplicity are out of reach unless you can see your work without looking through the familiarity that comes from having done it
@charlesagraham not entirely
@charlesagraham man, anything can happen by accident. the vastness of the universe provides for this.
@MyPMExpert it was the last night out before the week before the launch week. it's all school nights for the next ten days.
OH: and then he laid down some obscure duran duran under a monster industrial beat
@shanselman "test driven development with microsoft .net"
accidentally dank two bottles of wine with business partner and housemate
bouncing through the night as a serbian radio dj
@charlesagraham yep. that risk is always present. the awareness of it isn't.
@MyPMExpert ultimately, they already have an understanding of testing. it's just a wrong understanding.
@charlesagraham identifying someone as a douche is also subject to our own emotional content just as much as it might be an absolute truth
@charlesagraham i can understand how the first can be applied, but the second seems problematically mired in subconscious subjectivity
@kevdog no irony in referring to me as a fundamentalist in a conversation with chad? seems intellectually dishonest and agenda-ridden to me.
@chadmyers for my part, launching a customer's new business in seven days. on time.
@chadmyers the goal of the entity framework petition was to short circuit the raging hubris of the team. that it did. it cost what it cost.
@chadmyers i can see how any activism could look like a single faceted crusade to anyone singularly invested in placating a new benefactor
@chadmyers your don't even have the courage and honesty to portray the events without coloring them. and... where you even there?
@chadmyers indeed. what does indicate cowardice is being bought lock, stock, and barrel with microsoft tokens.
@MyPMExpert you know, the reason for that is the application of a project management curriculum that wasn't meant for product development :)
