MysteryCoder: January 2009
http://mysterycoder.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 31, 2009. Why don't I pair more? I've been watching a video of the hashrocket guys just now that Corey Haines twittered about. I've been amazed and inspired by Corey's pair programming tour. This isn't another post about why pair programming doesn't work, isn't a good idea, or any other such nonsense. I'm a true believer in pair programming. I've been sold on the concept since I first read about it in the first edition of Kent Beck's Extreme Programming. I learn way more. This one is a ...

Darrell Mozingo’s blog on .NET and development in general. DevOps Days London 2013. March 18th, 2013. No Comments ». I spent this past Friday and Saturday at DevOpsDays London. There’s been a few reviews written already about various bits (and a nice collection of resources by my co-worker Anna. 8211; Discussed using Zabbix, continuous monitoring, and some companies trying out self-healing techniques with limited success (be careful with services flapping off and on). Good discussion about Window support...

On The Rails: IOC comes to town
http://ontherails.blogspot.com/2004/11/ioc-comes-to-town.html
November 12, 2004. IOC comes to town. Dave Thomas (the Pickaxe. Forger) explains in plain simple English what Dependency Injection (DI) and Inversion of Control (IOC) can do. For an implementation that uses RoR. I'll admit I read Jamis' article (see Rails, Injected. After picking it up from the wiki yesterday but, not being a true propellerhead, I was left scratching my head wondering what to make of it. Dave distills it down to this: IOC means the controller is not so tightly coupled to the model. Hmm, ...

On The Rails: Authentication
http://ontherails.blogspot.com/2004/11/authentication.html
November 03, 2004. After a few frustrations, I succeeded this morning in getting authentication working. Most of the examples I’ve come across are some form of variation on the example posted on the wiki. It generally goes something like this:. Setup the login controller:. Class LoginController ActionController: Base. If @session["person"] = Person.authenticate(@params["name"],. Redirect to :controller = "main". Flash["alert"] = "Login failed! Redirect to :action = "index". 8230;and the model:. However, ...

On The Rails: Driving elsewhere
http://ontherails.blogspot.com/2004/11/driving-elsewhere.html
November 19, 2004. From "3 posts in 3 days" to 1 post in 1 week, I hate being a fickle blogger. Alas, like many RoRers, our Rails project is a part time affair, and this week other work was paying the bills. On arrival, Voon introduced us old-schoolers to the concept of Test Driven Development. TDD) The software development process lying at the heart of XP. Of course, this approach mandates you know your requirements. A statement of the bleeding obvious perhaps, but here's the key: in TDD, the test d...

All posts in category Conferences. SCNA 2011 Part 3: Gary Bernhardt, “Expansion and Contraction”. Also posted at http:/ meta.programmers.stackexchange.com/a/2822/226. So, expansion increases capability – our power to express an idea. Over time abundant resources and confusion drive change and we see a contraction that removes 5% of the capability and 85% of the confusion to enhance suitability – the power to deliver reliable software that works. Here are some examples from history:. 1995: Java is more su...
