Here I am putting together all kinds of things that do not fit anywhere else…
Software development:
- 2008.04.19 There is a nice (but not new :) introduction to XamlWriter on Mike Hillberg’s blog
- 2008.04.10 Krzysztof Cwalina (author of Framework Design Guidelines) gave a lecture about framework design (3 hours long!) at the Redmond’s Microsoft Research Center. You can see it on the ResearchChannel (cool thing, by the way! and has a lot of videos from Microsoft Research). The lecture video is available for download as well (direct link)
- 2006.11.15 High Level Assembler anyone? I found it while I was looking for some assembler reference. In the end I found The Art of Assembly Language Programming book together with the above-mentioned thingy on the Webster – The Place on the Internet to Learn Assembly site. This HLA is a bit like the old macro assembler on the IBM mainframes but even cooler. :)
- Levenshtein Distance “between two strings is given by the minimum number of operations needed to transform one string into the other” (includes algorithm and implementations)
- ProgrammableWeb: API Dashboard – really impressive list of Web 2.0 APIs from ProgrammableWeb (WTF is Web 2.0??? buzzwords… buzzwords…)
- Using /clr and __declspec(thread) – a TLS wrapper for .Net
- CSLA .Net – quite interesting framework for business objects
- Hm… Saw it on Miguel de Icaza’s blog – expression a ?? b is equivalent to a != null ? a : b. Nice shortcut. Bet not many people know about it. ;)
Conceptual:
- { End Bracket }: Peripheral and Foveal Vision – interesting view at the human-computer interaction
