“The selling point of the Indigo Service model is that it is simple and easy to use. The benefits for developers is that they get all the benefits of enterprise-quality features such as transactions, reliable messaging and security without having to write any code. Letting Microsoft do the plumbing allows developers more time to write code that focuses on solving complex and interesting business problems.”
My ReplayTV has made me such a bigot that I can’t even watch normal TV w/o turning up my nose in disgust anymore. Also, I love download into MS lectures and playing them back at 1.5 speed while I’m on my treadmill; exercising my mind and my body at the same time. All media should be timeshifted. *All* *media*.
Being from the Midwest (and big and dumb-looking besides), most folks assume I’m a homophobic. As it turns out, I’ve known a few homosexuals in my life, but not very many. Or rather, I suspect that I know a lot more of them then I recognize, but I never think about it. I never think about it because it doesn’t matter.
Real love is rare enough that people should be able to love and live and *marry* whoever the hell they want to and I resent a government that thinks that they get to decide who’s love counts and who’s love doesn’t count (although I do support parents being able to decide whether their minor children should be able to marry).
BTW, you can save yourself the trouble of responding if you’re going to say anything other than “+1”, as I won’t be responding to any kind of negative comments on this issue. There is literally nothing you can say to change my mind, so don’t even try.
When I’m having fun with the Sells brothers, I like to tell them that I don’t have two boys, but rather one boy and one redundant backup in case one of them needs “erasing.” I have never told which of them is which, however, ’cuz I like to tortune them (hey! I paid for ’em!)
Alex Kipman, PM on the MSBuild team, was kind enough to provide several tutorials on MSBuild, each of which includes sample projects and documentation. If you're looking to get up to speed on MSBuild, the nextgen .NET build engine, there's no better way. Enjoy!
It’s been about 5 months since the Longhorn Developer Center was launched and I’m curious what you guys think of it. Do you like it? What about it don’t you like? How could it support your current Longhorn development goals better? What can I do for the budding Longhorn developers that we’re not doing? Don’t be shy; call it like you see it.
