Hopefully, you will find the experimental project on transparent lazing loading for EF interesting.

@Kalpesh,

I'm with you on this one. I don't *ever* want to see another article that goes "point XYZ at the Northwind database and let 'er fly!"

re: My friend needs some help on an article

Kalpesh — Sun, 11 May 2008 18:56:13 GMT

All topics are interesting.

However, any topic with "what is it?", "how it works?", why should you care? and where it can be applied with real life example (other than northwind) would help.

Thanks to you & friend.

Jeremy,

I think you're absolutely right with both the "so much advantage" and "anywhere but a developer workstation" comments. Microsoft have been very, very good to me all through my career, but even when I'm hired by folks who run all- or nearly all-Windows shops, I find myself using Microsoft tools less and less, for exactly these reasons. (Having shifted to about 80% Web development helps, too.)

Microsoft have just completely lost sight of what it's like to develop anything better than bare-minimum-mediocre software in an environment where the end users (and testers, and etc.) are running significantly different (cleaner) systems than the developers. If all the developers have all the Office and (Microsoft) business apps on their systems, and all the end users have full VS-and-kitchen-sink stacks on theirs, this problem goes away (and Microsoft gets more money, of course).

But sooner or later Microsoft are going to have to get past the Jerry Michalski model of customers-as-consumers. As developers, we should have a reflexive impulse to eliminate dependencies EXCEPT where the gain from including a dependency decisively outweighs the pain of managing the dependency AND at the same time is greater than what could be accomplished in the given situation without that dependency.

We've still got a long, long way to go before the development process resembles engineering more than (honest) craftwork.

There are a number of approaches that you can take to improving your living space and making better use of it through remodeling. With the incredible increase in home prices over the last decade or so, it\'s becoming more and more difficult for the average

There's a lot of suggested topics about underlying principles, and "high" level patterns. I'd like to see an article that ties things together - a look at why patterns exist, in the context of the principles.

for example, MVP/MVC are great patterns - but if you truely understand DI, LSP, SoC, Orthogonality, etc. etc., then MVP/MVC are some of the possible natural outcome of the code you will want to write for a UI.
