Well, that's one of the most arse wateringly waste of time blogs I have ever had the misfortune to read. Until Linux ships pre installed and pre configured on desktop computers it won't make much impact in the corporate world for desktop applications.

Don't forget centralized administration & full support for features like LDAP. Those are critical in any modern IT shop.
Common sense is admitting there is cause and effect and that you can exert some control over what you understand.

All I can figure is that a few vocal participants here have pulled the site in that direction. This trend seems to have become even stronger since WPF came out. Code Project embraced that ill-fated technology with open arms, along with all of the dubious promises and bad architectural arguments that accompanied it.

And that's the whole essence. Write articles for none .NET languages/frameworks - they will help to drive interest in the site forward. One of the reasons I've posted so few really development focussed articles is because so much has been written about .NET already; I tend to try and post on things that I haven't seen elsewhere on the site (or even on t'Interweb), or updates to older techniques that can be done in newer, interesting ways.

You have posted three times and each occasion linked to this blog. If it is yours, then link to it via your user profile and CP will do the rest; I suggest you read up on how CP can link back to your blog and publish your articles.
If you do keep posting these items here, I am afraid you'll be laballed a spammer and voted off the site. Democracy sucks like that.

Better management of memory and updates highlight the latest release of the Mozilla Foundation's Web browser, Firefox 15. Firefox's development team has steadily improved the browser's memory management over recent months, but with this release of the program, it's targeting a major contributor to the software's piggish memory ways: add-on applications.

Actually, it only makes a difference if you are using leaky plugins. The worst memory problems have already been fixed several versions before

It is my favorite browser as it loads the pages very quickly and the add-ons are just awesome which adds stars to its existing features.

Good organization is all about setting yourself up to succeed. It means getting rid of anything that would interfere with the process of making a recipe or preparing an entire meal. If you are in the middle of preparation, you don’t want to stop and find the proper pot, or dig around in the cupboard for an ingredient: that opens you up to distractions and errors. When I’m getting ready to make a dish, I make sure everything is there. Being organized is the first and most important part of coding.

As it turns out, I ended up eating pasta + beef tacquitos last night. This could be more serious than I thought.

There's a famous lightening talk given by Gary Bernhardt about Javascript and Ruby oddities. I would like to start a series of blog posts documenting some oddities in the Java language for fun! I'll explain why or where these oddities come from with reference to the Java Language Specification when possible. I hope you learn some new things. Java programmers can declare array variables in several ways...

Although I’ve been using GitHub for open source projects for several years now, this is the first time I’ve worked with it in a largish (20+ developers) team. The default VCS for a Microsoft shop is, of course, TFS, so deciding to use GitHub might be seen as somewhat curious. This post describes why we came to the decision, how we integrate GitHub into our development process, and our experience so far. So why did we choose Git as our VCS? git commit "All in!"

Genuine question. I’ve written before about Test-Driven Development, and I’m sure some of you practice it: can you show evidence that it’s better than (or, for that matter, evidence that it’s worse than) some other practice? Statistically significant evidence? How about security? Can you be confident that there’s a benefit to spending any money or time on information security countermeasures? On what should it be spent? Which interventions are most successful? Can you prove that? Where is the evidence for Evidence-Based Software Engineering?

We don't share the evidence - that is one of the major differences between the immature industry we are and the mature industries like aviation.

Deploying is a big part of the lives of most GitHub employees. We don't have a release manager and there are no set weekly deploys. Developers and designers are responsible for shipping new stuff themselves as soon as it's ready. This means that deploying needs to be as smooth and safe a process as possible. The best system we've found so far to provide this flexibility is to have people deploy branches. Always be shipping!
