When I heard that Chris was joining Microsoft some days ago, one of my first thoughts was about the quality conference which we're going to miss.

I'm a fairly gadget-addicted person. From the very first Palm Pilot to Tablet PC, I've been there, done that - and took every step inbetween as well.
And still, when judging the real-life usability of some of these products, I can't stop short of complaining. Read More

I'm currently browsing my library for books which I'll take with me on my upcoming trip to the US.
As I opened my chosen favorite, Transaction Processing - Concepts and Techniques by Jim Gray and Andreas Reuter [1], I stumbled upon the following quote Read More

As said earlier, I've been thinking about taking the SSCLI's BinaryFormatter and playing with some performance enhancement techniques.
I frankly don't yet know if I will ever be able to share the code with a license which allows for use in production Read More

Isn't it fun to see that it basically only takes about a week or two from the time you enable comments on your weblog to having someone tell you that you're a f'ing idiot? ;-) Read More

I know that a number of Microsoft developers and PMs reads this blog. Today's the day I'm going to ask you for help.
I'd like to take the BinaryFormatter and the TcpChannel from Rotor and try some different performance optimization strategies.
If I Read More

It seems as if Richard didn't like to be called one of the other no-blog-yet DM guys.

Some more of my thought regarding the abomination dubbed Binary XML.
Wouldn't the world be a better place if we could use SOAP, WSDL, WS-*, without angle brackets?
Yes? Yes!
In the current distributed applications field, we are living with the Read More

In a little more than ten days, I'll be on stage again.

Sam and Chris just got an article published on MSDN. It's about WinForms development with Managed C++ and if you work in this field, you just have to read it!
Oh, and if you live near Orange, CA you owe yourself to check out Sam's talk on VS.NET 2003 Read More

Each and every .NET object's lifetime is managed by the garbage collector (GC). But as soon as Remoting enters the game, conventional garbage collection doesn't work anymore because it's impossible to track all existing references. That's why Remoting Read More

Doug Purdy, PM at Microsoft responsible for Serialization and Remoting, sets the record straight on rumors about Remoting going away:
1. Remoting is not going away.
2. We have a number of new Remoting features for the Whidbey release.

I'm still catching up on the previous week's events.
Appearantly, Keith has quite a similar opinion on Binary XML
[...] I can't think of system I could build (outside of network gaming engines) that requires anything SOAP doesn't offer. Plus, if the Read More

Chris switched
Doug Purdy did a cool 10 minute MSDN TV episode on RealProxy interception.
Some folks would like to see me intoxicated by a red pill
Don proposes an all SOAP lifestyle which I don't yet fully believe in. But give me BinaryXML and I'm with Read More

In a recent newsgroup post, I recommended to use Interfaces to access remote objects instead of using SoapSuds. My exact words were "I'd generally recommend to avoid SoapSuds whenever possible."
Generally speaking, the idea behind SoapSuds is to run Read More

Sam is heavily in favor of using the BCL’s type names versus C#’s
names. I absolutely second this for the very reason he states.
At the end of the day, nobody wants

I don't normally
rant about hardware issues but I guess at this time my experiences of the past
