Udi Dahan – The Software Simplist. Enterprise Development Expert and SOA Specialist. Domain Events – Salvation. Sunday, June 14th, 2009. I’ve been hearing from people that have had a great deal of success using the Domain Event pattern and the infrastructure I previously provided for it in Domain Events – Take 2. Before diving right into the code, I wanted to take a minute to recall how we got here. It started by looking for how to create fully encapsulated domain models. Just pure domain model goodness.

Agile is how we optimize our process for learning those things. – Ward Cunningham. 8220;people reach erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices but their incompetence robs them of the metacognitive ability to realize it.” – http:/ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunning-kruger effect.

If it's hard to write tests then alarm bells should ring
http://www.cilliano.com/2010/12/02/if-its-hard-to-write-tests-then-alarm-bells-should-ring.html
Cillian O'Ruanaidh / Home. If it's hard to write tests then alarm bells should ring. Dec 2, 2010. For a while I was struggling to write tests/specs for the most complex class in Quizbag.com. The class’s job was to find and select quiz questions for a quiz based on what question categories they wanted, how difficult they should be and what questions would suit where they’re from. So there was a lot of possible outcomes that needed test coverage. I discovered I needed to extract a class. When I went back t...

Agile Sadism: The "other" tool for cultural change. Monday, November 18, 2013. Of Liaisons, ball bearings, fetzer valves and failures. There's a scene from the movie "Fletch' when Chevy Chase is posing as an aircraft engine mechanic and is being grilled about why he'd need ball bearings. His reply: "Come on guys, it's all ball bearings these days! No, I'm not going to talk about ball bearings or even Fetzer valves (inside joke for the Fletch fans out there). To paraphrase, "Come on guys! Then as I starte...

Summer Has Arrived | Marked As Pertinent
https://markedaspertinent.wordpress.com/2010/06/13/summer-has-arrived
Rails, design, art, business by BJ Clark. Since the weather was so wonderful here in Portland today, my wife and I decided to make fajitas for dinner. Instead of your regular “grill some chicken, fry some veggies” fajitas, I decided to do a version I saw Alton Brown do on good eats. Enjoy with a Cascadian Black Ale and plenty of guacamole, preferably on your beautiful patio with your bride. Written by BJ Clark. June 13, 2010 at 6:53 pm. Laquo; A trip to Baltimore in June.
