A Soul-ful Batman and Batgirl at Heroes Happen in Brisbane

Brisbane’s own Dyanmic Duo Bronwyn and John showed up to the Heroes Happen event dressed as Batman and Batgirl. Respekt! They had previously emailed me trying to convince me to wear this superman outfit, but I had assumed it was a ruse and if I’d shown up in it there would have been much pointing and laughing. I work in an office environment where elaborate pranks featuring fake UPS tracking sites, trojaned laptops, host file entries, shelf companies, skype answering services attached to foreign numbers and faking your own death in the name of a good laff are not unheard of, so I assuemd this was just a pretty simple prank directed against me.

Works on My Machine logo as ASCII Art - prefect for check-in/defect resolution/bug triage/investigation comments

Have you ever wanted to attach the ever-popular “works on my machine” logo to a check-in comment or “bug” report, but been thwarted by text-only fields? Well look no further friends (courtesy of glassgiant):

Just because Emma has left doesn’t mean you’re going to be able to get away with stuff like this!

Obviously the solution here is to create a custom checkin policy that prevents the usage of the capital letter I …

Abstract for my CodeCamp Oz Talk - Silverlight 2.0 and WPF, What's the Same and What's Different

I just emailed the abstract for my CodeCamp OZ 2008 talk to Mitch and Greg. Essentially I’d like to do a comparison between WPF and Silverlight 2.0, looking at the control set, the threading model, variations in the use of the Xaml dialect, deployment, data binding, styling and templating. Also I want to look at how you can re-use components, code and design elements between the two frameworks. I know this one will be fairly topical with the imminent release of Silverlight 2.0 beta1, but I’m sure there are also plenty of other folks with interesting ideas for talks. I hope my one gets up.

Good luck :)

seems like you got accepted; well done :) can’t say the whole conf looks particularly interesting though. too much focus on ‘technology’ and not enough ‘algorithms’ and techniques and so on ..

Visual Studio Extensibility - hard

This post from Victor Garcia Aprea (VGA…I wish MY parents had been more forward looking when they named me, although I could have ended up with a crappy acroname like JDBC or something) struck a chord with me. Extending some parts of Visual Studio is just much much harder than it should be. I’ve had some success in the past, but it was always extremely painful, and some cool things never saw the light of day because of it. if VGA calls this stuff hard (AFAIK he works with the PnP & VS SDK team and works for Clarius who made the  T4 editor, IronPythonStudio and a bunch of other VS-related things) then what hope do the rest of us have?

So far I know of two efforts to create a new developer shell - nautilus (only known shipping incarnation is Expression Blend), and now emacs.net. Considering the weight of history the current VS shell has I doubt the others will supplant the memory-lovin’ COM beastie we know as Visual Studio.

I think sharp develop comes into that category. Its been around for years now, but as far as i know, most plugins work with it (Resharper being the one I use mostly), which is why I don’t use it.

I got a raptor

When I built my new rig last year I cheaped out on the hard-drive and got a 7200 RPM Samsung, and it showed in my Windows Experience Index Score too….my “weakest link” at 5.3. Recently I did some data recovery stuff for a member of my extended family, and as a thankyou present they bought me a 150GB WD Raptor. W00t. My WEI score is up to 5.5 now (the bottleneck has shifted to my 4GB of RAM) and the raptor scores a 5.9 for HDD perf which isn’t surprising. The only small downside is I have to do a fresh install of windows to really reap the benefits. Oh well, at least I’ll have a relatively clean machine for Vista SP1….due out in 48 hours or so.

Developer UI - the gathering

I know I’ve talked about developer UI before, but when I saw this today I couldn’t resist. It’s a GUI for robocopy from MSDN Magazine! and as you can see the translation from CLI to GUI has been fairly literal. Yes, you guessed it - every single one of those options corresponds to a command line parameter you can pass to robocopy. What does each one mean? Well - you’d better fire up a command prompt and type “robocopy /? »
