Was just thinking about you the other day and was wondering what had happened to you.
Hope your condition gets better and you can come back full time.

Dump him. You don't need to put up with that.

Dump him it is not worth hiding. He is a jerk and you do not need him to follow your every move on the internet.

Hey now - some of us professional developers are lackeys, and some lackeys are professional developers.

I've you are married to a genuine cluster "B" personality, get out now else it will crush you. Been there, done that.

I remember you back when you were simply Leckey. 
We miss you, too! Welcome back, and I'll watch for the new name on the boards. And if you ever decide to do something about that stalker of yours, come visit my other favorite forum, thefirearmsforum.

Welcome back, come on in and call Chris a b'tard. BTW If someone uses the words ELEPHANT or SUNSHINE the meaning of those two words has changed somewhat. All I can say is Michael Martin had a hand in the former and the later followed a spoonerific weather forecast involving country sunshine...

Great to see you back, I would be cautious about using the original id, a simple search for it here would get the link to the new id. Oh I do well on the paranoia charts.

Hey... welcome back!! I second removing your old username from your post, or at the very least obfuscating it in some way!!
You'll be pleased to know that Booger Mobile is still going strong, or you might already know that if you've been watching the blog!

Welcome back - I've been around for the past year (plus a few months), so we probably don't know each other yet (except you happen to live or work in centrals switzerland).
Even the past year through CP has changed a lot, think about CodeProject.tv and Workspaces being launched to public.
I'm not gonna comment on who you are married to, but I'm sure here are some people willing to help if you want to dump him.
I will never again mention that Dalek Dave was the poster of the One Millionth Lounge Post, nor that it was complete drivel.

Hey leckey, welcome back ! It is nice too see you around again ! 
Hope you are doing well !

You married an accountant, came here and saw that accountant = Dalek Dave and you still stayed with him. Do you never learn?

In 2010, my job turned me into a manager and I haven't coded since. I'm trying to get back into it. I was doing ASP.Net web forms in VB. I know a ton has changed since. I've been looking at MVC in C# to get back into it. Any ideas on what else to learn?
|

It's what you now need to un-learn that really counts
I'd suggest learning one of the cloud platforms (from your current background I'd go with Azure) maybe?

Brush up on javascript/jquery.
Look at C# with webforms also, MVC isn't universally replacing webforms (or is it?).
Other than that, brush up on T-SQL and databases.
Those handful of things will make you viable for many jobs. You could look at an ORM too, but I would focus on understanding SQL first - because sometimes the ORM just cannot handle what you need, and you wlll dive back into SQL in those cases.

What is your opinion on a good ORM for the .NET world? I've used EF (meh), and Simple.Data (good but young), but would like to know what else is popular particularly in a production environment.

I'm the wrong person to ask.
I have to work with Linq-to-Sql, which is basically dead. I have heard 'nhibernate' and 'entity framework' tossed around as buzzwords. I was really just trying to point out the need for having some sort of data driven skill set more than anything, which is why I would pursue something more generically useful over a framework that may be a passing fad.
I would just see what pops up the most on the job boards QA forums and head in that direction. All my jobs have required new skills, but built on some piece of an old skill. The generic skill sets are the ones that keep me employed over the fancy frameworks.

Happened to me in 2007, and I missed the C# wagon.

Sorry for your luck.
Tad McClellan wrote: I've been looking at MVC in C# to get back into it
I am biased but C# will give you a better platform to work with. MVC is my latest passion but I don't want to tell you that it is the way to go. I like it but others don't. Go with your feelings.

I'm quite partial to the MEAN stack.
M = MongoDB
E = Express
A = AngularJS
N = Node.js

This is why I no longer desire to be a manager...

Congratulations on your successful restoration surgery. It sounds like the new cryogenic preservation techniques for your brain, spine, and (since you're male) your 'two best friends' worked well.
