Take Outs Part Deux: 15 February 2004 bonus issue

Just to many items building up to try to wait on, plus I wanted to get the June beta for Whidbey news out. I wouldn't be too surprised if we don't see a public Yukon around the same time.

Item Category RSS Comments
.Net Dev RSS Well, wait for ActivateState to stick there hands in your pocket for it too. I'd really pimp PerlNET much more if I didn't have to take a mortgage out to license it.
Are Programmers Engineers? (some thoughts on Eric Sink's thoughts) Dev RSS No, programmers are neither engineers nor architects. As a discipline, CS really lacks the hundreds of years of experience as a disciple to call ourselves either.
Can Sun Tempt Windows Developers? Dev RSS Excellent analysis, I think
Embrace Uncertainty...Why Would I Do That? Dev RSS Yet more Pro-Rod advice.
Old Fashioned Programming Dev RSS Either is good. Pair programming is dangerous though, because it makes it too easy to slide into a monoculture mode. On the other hand, code inspections are too frequently too much after the fact to anything but a learning experience. Do both.
Overriding project item SubType for Pocket PC .NET CF Forms with non-standard form initialisation code. Dev RSS Solution searching for a problem? I've not been bitten by this... maybe just yet.
Services vs. Components Dev RSS Yes, exactly, now can this debate just go away, please.
Sessions at DevConnections in Orlando, 18-21 April Dev RSS SDB310 and SDV309 look interesting, but I think I'm going to pass on this conference. Does anybody know if there is or is not going to be a PDC this year? My guess is now yes, based on launch of the 1.0 version. Anybody?
Shrek 2 - New Trailer Dev RSS Developers are like Onions, you see. If you cut them, they make you cry. But if you put enough heat to them, they brown up nice and sweet.
UDDI Face to Face Meeting Dev RSS Hey, Phillip, maybe UDDI does have legs.
Why Script? Dev RSS Yes, scripting is good.
81,000 recipes!...(...) Food RSS That's a lot of ways to use Tofu, folks.
Baby Lesson #3 Life RSS "One thing I'm noticing as a new dad is that I want to explain everything to him, even though he just looks at me and gurgles."
Visual Studio and Source Safe Integration - Stored Procedures SQL RSS Now that's slick! Great post!
FOXNews.com - Foxlife - An Interview With Sci-Fi Legend Ray Bradbury SciFi RSS Great read from the master. I still turn to his Zen in the art of Writing book once a month of so. "Well, I’m getting on, aren’t I? I’m 83 going on 14. "
Love is a many splendoured thing Rants RSS Congrats, mate, love is indeed a wonderful thing.
National Guard Issue Rants RSS Real issues? Real issues don't make good TV.
Availability of the Whidbey Beta WILY RSS June beta news #1
Front-Office Trading applications and Indigo WILY RSS Sounds like an excellent test case.
Scott Guthrie explains the Whidbey release timing WILY RSS June beta news #2, best details
The Benefits of CLR Integration in Yukon WILY RSS Rehash, but worth reading. Do follow the link the SQL Developer conference if you're in the UK.
Whidbey Beta comes in "June time-frame" WILY RSS June beta news #3 -- I stand corrected: Julia did say that DevDay are the Alpha bits, not the Betas. Sorry for the oversight.
I want a new drug WTF? RSS Sounds like Matt needs to get an AMD FX51 :)
Combining XPath-based Filtering with Pull-based XML Parsing XML RSS Yet more on XML Streaming Events
How Would You Instantiate a Schema Type? XML RSS Sounds like a good feature to me too. Dare? Fussell?
On Semantic Integration and XML XML RSS Spot on!

As always: your feedback is welcome below. Thanks, and Enjoy Every Sandwich.
