Deals Well With Ambiguity

A while ago I was talking with my manager at the time about traits that we value in a Program Manager. He related an anecdote about an interview he gave where it became clear that the candidate did not deal well with ambiguity. This is an important trait for nearly every job, but especially for PMs as projects can often change on a dime and its important understand how to make progress amidst ambiguity and eventually drive towards resolving ambiguity. Lately, Ive been asking myself the question,...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

I was going to get an iPhone, BUT ..

My cell phone contract expires in a couple weeks and I was all set to buy an iPhone. The iPhone had started to take off when I got my current phone / contract but at that the time Microsoft paid for a significant portion of my phone bill so staying with a Windows powered phone was appropriate (I like to be a good team player.) Budget tightening as changed the expense policy and now Microsofts contribution to my cell phone expenses is limited to $35. So, I figured Id get an iPhone, its...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

The fastest way to resize images from ASP.NET. And its (more) supported-ish.

Ive shown before how to resize images using GDI, which is fairly common but is explicitly unsupported because we know of very real problems that this can cause. Still, many sites still use that method because those problems are fairly rare, and because most people assume its the only way to get the job done. Plus, it works in medium trust. More recently, Ive shown how you can use WPF APIs to do the same thing and get JPEG thumbnails, only 2.5 times faster than GDI (even now that GDI really ultimately...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

Visual Studio goes international

While code, the language of software, is universal, developers and end users speak in different tongues across the globe.

In Developer Division, we put a great deal of thought and effort into building products for developers around the world. For some languages, we do a complete translation of our products. ...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

Dashboards Made Easy - The DrillDownManager Control

The usability and value of most modern dashboards becomes seriously questioned if the data shown is fixed, and the user does not have the ability to zoom in or drill-down into the data to a more detailed view. Implementing this functionality can sometimes be a time consuming task - a lot of plumbing code is needed to connect all the components and handle the events to interpret the drill-down actions and the parameters. The whole purpose of the DrillDownManager is to make this task...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

My First Windows Phone 7 Application

IE9 Preview disables CLR DEVPATH feature

(This is not related to IKVM.NET, but since I spent several hours tracking this down, I thought I'd write it up here in the hope anyone else struggling with this will find it.) One of the lesser known (development) features of the CLR is the ability to override the regular Fusion assembly loading rules by setting the DEVPATH environment variable (and adding an entry to the machine.config to enable this). It turns out that this feature can be disabled...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

Is the Apple iPad for you now or should you wait until the iPhone 4 is released?

The iPad came to the market last Saturday and as always with the Apple marketing came the big lines and small tents that never seen a camp site but the Apple stores. There are the people that want one right away and want to be the first person to own the new shiny device from Apple and there are the people that are willing to wait a month for the device with 3G instead of just WiFi only. The iPad is an interesting concept, a bigger iTouch that can be used as a replacement for your Netbook, Kindle,...Did you know that DotNetSlackers also publishes .net articles written by top known .net Authors?

AZGroups.org Postcard Idea

VistaPrint.com is a place that prints very cheap (free sometimes) business cards and post cards. I’ve used them in the past for my user group business cards.
