RT @JosephHill, @sandyarmstrong: Thanks RMS! You have opened my eyes. Switching to VB.NET. #gcds
@migueldeicaza @JustinAngel I think we need a lighter weight view engine for WPF/Silverlight than XAML. XAML is XML gone bad.
@stevenharman It's a good point, though - source control has always been designed around developers rather than releasing working software.
@stevenharman Oh, the goal... I just got off the phone with Jonah and he told me to use Visual Source Safe... ???
Surprise evening of mind being blown. @sloro schooled me in GMail management, @robconery schooled me in Git. Who wants to teach me Mandarin?
Just recorded a quick 20ish minute conversation with @robconery on Git. Makes a lot more sense to me now.
r @SteveAndrews Git's very decentralized, everyone runs their own fork. Still getting my head around it.
r @robconery Deal. I've been dying to talk to someone who could convince me that branching and merging are worth optimizing for.
r @robconery Oh... and... CONGRATS ON THE SUBSONIC 3 RELEASE!!!
@robconery I wish you'd brought up Git on the podcast, I'd have loved to talk about it...
r @robconery I'm very interested to hear how Git works for you. I think it's overrated for most projects that aren't Linux.

@codinghorror I agree with you there. Licensing costs shouldn't be hidden. Huge turnoff.
@codinghorror If your costs for developing SQL Server average out to $15K/installation, do you charge $15K for a hello world install?
@codinghorror I get that tiered pricing is giving you grief, but it's basically graduated income taxes for software.
@RachelAppel @ShawnWildermuth Cool, the MVC Tour and jQuery Tour sound great! http://wildermuth.com/2009...
Trying to edit a very fun but unfocused #herdingcode conversation with @robconery to make it a little easier to follow.
Renaming GMail labels to folders doesn't solve the fundamental problem - there's no option to see all mail *not* in a folder.
r @adambyram I wouldn't be surprised if it's similar to the actor curve - a tiny but highly publicized minority actually make money.
So it appears the password to sign the #witty ClickOnce deployment has been lost. Lame.

Welcome to the tweetersphere, @eleanorgrosch! Eleanor does really cool graphic design stuff like this http://www.pushmepullyoudesign.com/guardia...
@lazycoder Jinxed myself there, Visual Studio just locked up with a delay notification. Still waiting after 5 minutes, will have to kill it.
@lazycoder I keep getting "@vseditor is busy" tweets at random intervals...
@codinghorror you're one of the lucky twitter users whose tweets show up in @bing - http://www.bing.com/search...
r @robconery What would the actual benefits of moving to GitHub be? I've yet to be convinced that increased branch/merge is good.
r @RickStrahl The app I'm working on was designed around allowing content editors to use Windows Live Writer - using a "fake blog" as CMS.
@alanstevens I think that polishing the decaying COM guts of Visual Studio would have been shortsighted.
r @alanstevens Rico Mariani's post was pretty clear, WPF has nothing to do with VS2010 B1 performance. http://blogs.msdn.com/ricom...
r @alanstevens WPF offloads some tasks to the GPU, so it's a higher performance solution once it's tuned. Problem is the COM shims.
