I suppose then that would be a Male-Female Person... Or perhaps Male->Female Person?

As opposed to only male person.
I'd rather be phishing!

Is that a roundabout way of saying you're a "jackass"?

They probably mean someone who identifies as either.

Wow, so much wrong with that job offer...

They are just saving words: it's either a male who strokes women at work, or a woman who strokes men.
Clearly, they are an equal opportunity sexual assault employer.

I've lived a fair old time on this oblate spheroid and over the years I've read many books that have contributed to me becoming the person I am today. I thought it might be interesting to have a semi-regular update to give a shout out to the books (both good and bad) that have made me the person I am today. Hopefully this will give people a glimpse of some books they might not have considered, or a reminder of books they've read in the past. It won't all be technical books that I link to, but there will be a fair few of those.
To that end, I'd like to start off with Writing High-Performance .NET Code eBook: Ben Watson: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store[^]. As someone who likes to obsess about what goes on under the hood of things, this book was one of those I decided would be a must-read. It's possibly a bit too technical if you just want to learn the framework, but if you really want to know what makes it tick and what you can do to avoid common performance pitfalls, this book is superb. It's written from the perspective of someone who has gone through the pain of performance tuning a large scale application but it doesn't dwell on platform specific features (I'm talking about things like WPF or ASP.NET). Instead, it offers a fascinating insight into how the framework is written and how that affects the code you write for it.
Would I recommend this book? Definitely. If you're serious about developing performant applications in .NET, this is one of those books you really should read.

Thanks. Maybe you could make a list of these on your profile???

I like your idea! This book I already own (and partially read it) but I'm curious which others you'll recommend.

PROLOGUE: During my lunchtime I was searching the various appliances vendors, as I'm looking for a coffee machine taht uses capsules. Most of those pesky capsules are proprietary and while their machines are affordable, the capsules themselves cost an arm and an eye. I found a economic kind of capsule which is compatible with a decent number of machines.
The capsule model is named Espresso Point... but in each and every search I did I typed Espresso pint. Several searches spanning half an hour! I guess it was what I was really searching after all, a pint of espresso

You have to ask yourself what the economic capsule coffee tastes like... 
Me? I have a cafetiere and use real beans...

They cloned the business model of the inkjet printer manufacturers.
A friend of mine is a sales man for Illy (an Italian coffee company for those who did not know them). He always has to ensure that he has the matching capsules and machines in his car when on tour because even that single company has multiple types of capsules.
