Jun 04, 2011 at 12:02 AMBrian:
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed my stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me
Welcome back.

NuGet In Depth: Empowering Open Source on the .NET Platform
Apr 20, 2011 at 3:58 AMNot only did I attend this session, I got the T-shirt!
Shame it was only a NuGet T-shirt and not a Ha-Haa T-shirt. You should get some of them made for next time Scott & Phil.

TWC9: Netduino, Twitter oAuth in Windows Phone, App skinning, and universal physics
Sep 11, 2010 at 3:30 AMHappy Birthday Charles. Not a day over 25 years old, obviously.
I once read a 4 page article in New Scientist about theories of faster-than-light travel through worm-holes. It was heavy going, but I kept at it. The last paragraph pointed out that none of this was possible in this universe, but perhaps could be possible in some other universe where the laws of physics were different. I felt cheated.
So thanks for pointing out the article, Charles. Perhaps my 20 minutes of reading weren't a complete waste of time is it could be possible in some other part of this universe. All we have to do is figure out which part and then get there
And Prof Hawkins might have to accept that time travel is possible -- we just haven't seen the time-travellers because they're too far away!

Jay Schmelzer: Introducing Visual Studio LightSwitch
Aug 08, 2010 at 12:52 PMA bit late with this question (hey, I'm allowed to go on holiday):
What happens when you want to take a LightSwitch app to the enterprise level with a lot more business process behind the scenes (e.g. update customer status when invoices paid).
I did notice the 'Desktop 3-tier' option for the application model, but you didn't go into that one ...
