As I started my own journey into unit testing, I slowly began to realize that it was really easy to come up with reasons to NOT test my code as I was writing it, even once I understood what that was supposed to look like. Because then I'd have to write tests for my test code

The world's largest social network, set to host its annual developers conference this week, wants a piece of the app pie. Would clicking the 'dislike' button be close enough?

I have reservations about the policies of app stores run by MS and Apple. I won't even join FB due to their goddamn awful practices relating to privacy, and trying at one stage to assume copyright over uploaded content. My chance of "friending" them is remote to put it mildly. I'd be more likely to teach myself malicious hacking and attempt to mess up their servers (that's not very likely, in case anyone from NSA checks CP forums).

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It's been over seven years since the Prism project started, led by the patterns & practices team. It was originally known as the Composite Application Library. Last year, we celebrated our 5th official release of Prism. And by "grows up", they mean they're dumping it on the community

Seven years? Try thirty.

In August 1985 the first draft of a high-level design was delivered, and work began on the detailed design. The PRISM specification was developed over a period of many months

Traditional technical interviews are terrible for everyone. Just hire the first person that applies
|
|
|
|
|
I am not going to give up hours/days of my time on a worthless project when I already know that interviews are decided in the first few seconds of meeting someone, face-to-face. Technical questions are a poor way to interview and I have refused to white board but I've also agreed and found it to be a poor interview technique but can also be fun.
The best and fairest way is to ask generalized questions to see if the interviewee would be a cultural fit in the team/business because they could be the smartest developer in the world but if they won't mesh with the team then you've just hired a whole heap of trouble. Oh, and actually follow up on the references. Duh.

Today, we’re announcing two new updates to Enterprise Site Discovery as part of the March 2015 Update: IE8, IE9, and IE10 support and enhanced privacy options. "Private Eyes, they're watching you"

|
...but no IE11 support?

IE11 already came with it.

It's a shame that those manufacturers who will choose to not provide an off-switch won't get paid back because most people won't care or even know.
