ScottW has an interesting new theory for prototyping: if you cannot build an interesting working version of an application in less than 1000 lines of code, you are likely over complicating things. I think he's actually talking about more than p…

Last Wednesday, I was working from home and while The Family was gone for day, I decided to sneak out of The Dungeon and get in a little GRAW 2 time during lunch. In the middle of the game, my XBox 360 locked up. Turning it off and back on resulted in th…

If you go by the odds, there should be a lot of close games this weekend. 13 of the 16 games are 7 points or less, and 15 are less than 10 points. Only New England is out there - with over a 20 point spread! Good choice for Monday night! Green Bay vs…

Finally, a decent week! 12-4 is by far my best week so far this season. Interestingly, the first time I got 12 of 16 right last season was also week 12 (but this dismisses the fact that I went 12 of 14 earlier last year). Maybe this season is going to tu…

Dave Donaldson nails it again when he talks about checking in your changes as often as possible. I've seen people resist this because of a "that's not how I work" mentality, and when you work with Continuous Integration, that thought process do…

A short week to get your picks done! And since it's a short work week, it's a busy week there as well! Green Bay (-3) vs. Detroit (47 O/U): You have to love football on Thanksgiving. This'll be on in my house New York Jets* vs. Dallas (-14) (47.5…

Another pretty poor week, although I did make up a little ground with spread picks, so that's good! It's really, really tough to make any money on straight picks. I am over 60% right on the season, but yet, I'm down $150+. Ouch. My "Lock Solid&quo…

No matter what you think of Dave Winer, he is definitely an innovator and is constantly coming up with great ideas. His latest is a gem as well. Every web app that produces long urls should provide a built-in url-shortening facility. The user interf…

It seems like just about every other comment on the NuSoft Framework site is asking for a list of features we plan to offer in the future. We've had ideas of what we want to do, as well as taking in feedback, but we hadn't put it all together yet. That…

I think I've finally figured out how to deal with the Zune, and so far, my new way of doing things has been working out very nicely. For some background, I don't want to keep my podcast subscriptions in the Zune software - I want all of my subscriptions…
