Although I still tend to trust most of the medical
community's judgement more than a reporters about such matters, I have, infact
met more than my fair share of surgeons who seem to see surgery as the best --
if not only -- medicine. |
| How
can you get an IT department fully engaged and passionate about technology (and

Jason's right (of course) that they are lot of zombies just
collecting checks within IT. Joseph's commens are similar to mine: either they
are motiviated or they aren't. The best place to make a difference is that they
test your motivation in the hiring process. You can't be Zombie and work at
Microsoft -- at least not for long. It doesn't take much time for them to root
the Zombies out either. That's another problem, of course. The more Zombies you
have in an organization, the more fresh brains they eat. |

performance vs. user unfriendly SAX? |

Overall, the report seems like a transparent ploy to
distract developers from noticing Sun's lack of XML innovation. Maybe
Tim can do something about that, maybe not. |

Programming, the act of instructing computers on how to use
their resources to effect work, will never go away. We may not do write
programs in the future using things editors and compilers and runtimes, though.
I suspect the next big shift isn't from programming to non-programming but from
programming to teaching. |

Gotta love that. |

I used to wonder how people like Dino did it. I think the

This is pretty sweet. One of the problems with

Posted my comments there. I don't agree that XP SP2's ICF is a silly idea. Its
better than the nothing we have now.

While its an interesting analysis, do we really know that

I wonder if this is isn't a SharePoint issue rather than a

I liked this post. Learned something about GC from it that
I hadn't thought about before: Unless there is some mystical GC tuning
happening behind the scenes, or unless you can attach the type of the object
you'd want to collect to this new HandleCollector so that the GC only tries to
collect objects that would contain an actual handle, then I don't think this is
going to be very useful either. |
