Igorrr - Tout Petit Moineau[^]
Again a band someone here on CP pointed out to me
This live performance of the song is specifically well done!
Watch out though, it's beautiful, it's ugly, it's eclectic as hell.
Not for everyone (then again, no song ever is)

Curious what you think of Die Antwoord. I won't link to any because most could be considered NSFW, but you can search youtube for their videos. Careful though, they are like a trainwreck, hard to look away and revolting at the same time.

I fink they freaky and I like dem a lot
Well, not all their songs, but a few.
I listen to it from time to time.
And they sometimes rap in South African, which looks and sounds like Dutch.
They got famous because Lady Gaga and Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit) like them

Interesting, there's a very wonderful voice attached ... somewhere ... to that demon-impersonator. I bet there wasn't one epileptic left standing in the hall after that song's barrage of strobes
I think you might just dig Diamanda Galas who's been screaming her out for years from classical venues to rock concerts. Look her up.
And, how about Emma Shapplin's "Spente Le Stella" [^] ... to lyrical for you ?
cheers, Bill

Not quite the sound I like (surprising?).

Although I think I prefer Sarah

Thanks for that lovely song ! That type of music is definitely in my zone, and what a beautiful woman !
I have a feeling you would like some of the work of the Turkish singer Sezen Aksu: [^].
Another moving female singer ... from Kazakhstan ... you might enjoy:
Irina Mikhailova : [^]. imho the recordings she did early after her arrival in the U.S. really stand out, and she has made a lot questionable value new-age material since.
I guess next-up would be Alanis Morisette, and Lisa Gerard ?
cheers, Bill

By accident, while researching a problem using a custom Attribute with 'AllowMultiple = true ... I stumbled across a link to Jeremy's project on GitHub (Apache License 2.0): [^], and I found his work very impressive.
I really like the fluent semantics and chaining he's implemented; here's an example what a Validator for a POCO class, Customer, looks like: (from the GitHub site)
using FluentValidation;
public class CustomerValidator: AbstractValidator<Customer> {
public CustomerValidator() {
RuleFor(customer => customer.Surname).NotEmpty();
RuleFor(customer => customer.Forename).NotEmpty().WithMessage("Please specify a first name");
RuleFor(customer => customer.Discount).NotEqual(0).When(customer => customer.HasDiscount);
RuleFor(customer => customer.Address).Length(20, 250);
RuleFor(customer => customer.Postcode).Must(BeAValidPostcode).WithMessage("Please specify a valid postcode");
}
private bool BeAValidPostcode(string postcode) {
}
} It took me only a few minutes to rig-up a test Project ... using NuGet to install FluentValidation ... in Visual Studio, and get it working.
He's got both global and local (over-rideable) settings for whether all validation tests run to completion, or whether validation terminates if any one test fails.
The fluent style used in the code resonated in my head with some of Marc Clifton's interesting articles here.
I sent Jeremy an e-mail and told him I thought a lot of people would be interested in the architecture of this project, the problems solved, the design decision, and mentioned CodeProject
I like the smell of good software !

I just started using it 2 weeks ago. I agree - very nice work. Makes validation a snap.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Working with fluent implementations in MongoDB, I realized that there can be a huge pitfall -- it's 100% imperative, describing both how and what. So, when building something like an aggregator with MongoDB, it becomes really dangerous, in my humble opinion, because all that fluent code locks you in to a specific understanding of what your data looks like now.
Fortunately, the aggregator can still be built from declarative strings or by passing in a list of aggregators. But what if the designers didn't provide that option, and only provided a fluent interface?
Sure, you could rewrite:
RuleFor(customer => customer.Discount).NotEqual(0).When(customer => customer.HasDiscount);
as:
var step1 = RuleFor(customer => customer.Discount);
var step2 = step1.NotEqual(0);
var step3 = step2.When(customer => customer.HasDiscount);
But what a PITA, to have to fold in the declarative "what" with the imperative "how." For a rule engine, fluent is probably just fine, but for creating dynamic interfaces to databases, like MongoDB, fluent can be a death trap.
Besides, what if you want to change:
customer => customer.HasDiscount to customer => customer.HasDiscount || store.OffersPromotionDeal ?
Here is great example of having to change the business rule, rebuild the app, redistribute it, when the damn thing should have been specified declaratively from the get go.
Be very very careful of Fluent.

Disclaimer: the working code shown here reflects the initial efforts of a newcomer to using FluentValidation. The code shown probably does not demonstrate "best practices" in using that tool. The "take-away" I would like you to have is that: if someone like me can quickly bumble their way to something that smells like it could be useful ... so easily, so rapidly ... than: you (my technical "betters") will probably have an even easier time.
Hi Marc, oh, would I had a smattering of your depth and experience ! But, eager septuagenarian fool-for-code that I am, I took:
Marc Clifton wrote: Besides, what if you want to change:
customer => customer.HasDiscount to customer => customer.HasDiscount || store.OffersPromotionDeal ? As an interesting challenge ... for a newcomer to FluentValidation ... to see what I could come up to handle that. So, an hour later:
public class Store
{
public string Name { set; get; }
public bool OffersPromotionalDeal { set; get; }
public Store(string name, bool offerspromo)
{
Name = name;
OffersPromotionalDeal = offerspromo;
}
}
public class StoreValidator : AbstractValidator<Store>
{
public StoreValidator()
{
RuleFor(store => store.OffersPromotionalDeal);
}
public bool OffersPromotionalDeal(bool isoffered)
{
return isoffered;
}
} Then, I added this to the 'Customer Class:
public List<Store> CurrentStores = new List<Store>();
public Store CurrentCustomerStore { set; get; } The "Rule" that matches your criteria (plus one criterion I added) now becomes:
RuleFor(customer => customer.HasDiscount).Must(disc => disc == true).WithMessage("Customer must have a current Discount");
RuleFor(customer => customer.Discount).LessThan(100).WithMessage("Discount must be less than 100%");
RuleFor(customer => customer.CurrentStore).NotNull().WithMessage("Customer must have a Current Store");
RuleFor(customer => customer.CurrentStore.OffersPromotionalDeal).Must(deal => deal == true).WithMessage("Current Store must have a current promotional offer");
I suspect this "Rule" can be greatly improved once I understand the rich set of "Rule" functionalities FluidValidation exposes.
Here's the output of my first test:
failed validation with 3 errors
Error Message: 0 : Customer must have a current Discount
Error Code: predicate_error
Error Message: 1 : Discount must be less than 100%
Error Code: lessthan_error
Error Message: 2 : Current Store must have a current promotional offer
Error Code: predicate_error When I think I have an implementation of all this in optimal FluentValidation style, I'll post a link to a working sample as a Tip/Trick.

Well, that's very neat! I look forward to reading more. Email me when you post the tip/trick? I may not see it otherwise.
