ServiceStack and I

Feb

2013

The last year brought me good things, many of them have been based on a “simple” thing….ServiceStack. I think it was back in the autumn of 2011 I sorta got caught in a discussion on twitter with a few people including Demis Bellot (the father of ServiceStack). I defended WCF and said it didn’t really ...

Plan for 2012

Jan

2012

It’s been very popular writing a retrospect for 2011, but I’m gonna that very shortly and look ahead instead 2011 summary, NDC visit (was AWESOME!!!), did my first presentations, Silverlight 4 certification and last but not least changed job back in January and went to d60.

…og vinderen er: Mikael Syska Han har valgt at lave den rå udgave hvor der bliver tegnet et diagram, og gemt som en png. Koden er fin struktureret og der skal meget lidt til før at den vil kunne anvendes som et mere generelt søjlediagram. Derud over skal siges at der var fine runners up…hvis ...

Don’t wanna mess up my object #004

Dec

2010

So as a really slow followup on my #003 post I’ll add a nice little thing you can do to help you keeping your domainobjects clean. I’ve written about the DebuggerDisplay but that might not cut it, perhaps there is some nice to know information that you could use during debugging but doesn’t really have ...

Not so long ago I stumbled upon a minor feature that I haven’t seen before and I gotta say that I really like it. It might be simple but it can save some trouble. Todays little tip is about the class named DebuggerDisplay. Have you ever been annoyed by the fact that Visual Studio only ...

New books on the shelves

Jun

2010

I went on a minor book shopping spree last week. I tried to find a really good book for developers that wasn’t only about code (besides that it was VERY recommended reading on StackOverflow). So after some shuffling around Amazon.co.uk I decided to buy “Code Complete 2nd Edition” by Steven McConnell. So far I haven’t ...

There is more than one way to skin a path #002

Jun

2010

How often do you work with paths? Quite allot of people don’t really take their time to look at the “minor” stuff in the .NET Framework, and one of the classes I see skipped is something as plain and simple as Path. I don’t think anyone at the office used it before I started back ...

Is it a digit? #001

Jun

2010

I’ve seen developers do some really wicked stuff when they try to figure out if a char is a digit, and seriously it’s even more simple than you think it is I’ve seen people doing fancy regular expression catching, immense calls to string.TryParse where they cut the string smaller and smaller and afterwards they reverse ...
