jmorrill.hjtcentral.com — The new D3DImage in WPF opens up worlds for WPF. Direct3D content rendered with WPF...it doesn't get any better! The downside is it seems (correct me if I'm wrong) that Microsoft was only targeting unmanaged Direct3D. Yes there is Managed DirectX, but it seems as if MDX is no longer being maintained and it's not so obvious how to get a D3D surface pointer from the API. It really seems MDX has been left in the dust in favor for XNA, which is a very intuitive D3D wrapper. XNA further exacerbates the issue with XNA and WPF. read more...

dotnethitman.spaces.live.com — I've seen many developers actually using and abusing SELECT * FROM queries. SELECT * query not only returns unnecessary data, but it also can force clustered index scans for query plans because columns in the SELECT clause are also considered by the optimizer when it identifies indexes for execution plans. read more...

codethinked.com — In the modern world of programming we need to be more cognizant of making our code readable and grokkable than to make it clever or sneaky. For 99% of the developers out there, no one is ever going to pat you on the back for being sneaky. You're probably more likely to get punched in the face for it when the team has to spend the weekend debugging a piece of your clever code. read more...

marlongrech.wordpress.com — Lately I’ve been working on a project at work and the application was performing pretty well. The CPU Usage was below 2% and I was quite happy with it. Then I decided to add a simple animation that continues executing forever… the results 15% CPU consumption … I was amazed at how much CPU was being wasted. Yet I am a stubborn guy and if I want an animation to execute forever, I will do it no matter what…. read more...

weblogs.asp.net — Silverlight 2 Beta2 was released today. Silverlight 2 Beta2 supports a go-live license that allows you to start using and deploying Silverlight 2 for commercial applications. There will be some API changes between Beta2 and the final release, so you should expect that applications you write with Beta2 will need to make some updates when the final release comes out. But we think that these changes will be straight-forward and relatively easy, and that you can begin planning and starting commercial projects now. read more...

dotnetalgos.wordpress.com — The counting sort algorithm is a type of sort algorithm that can be used to sort collections of values whose range is known. By that, we mean that the algorithm is based on the assumption that we know all possible values of the sort key beforehand. That’s not as terrible as it sounds - it may be as simple as knowing that our sort key will be a byte value, and hence be limited to the range of numbers between 0 and 255, for example... read more...

dotnetalgos.wordpress.com — Insertion sort is one of the many algorithms that we will cover in this blog. I choose this algorithm to start with because I think that this is a fairly easy to understand (better start with an easy one :) ) To understand the insertion sort imagine that you have a deck of cards that is not sorted. You put this deck of cards on the table and start picking a card one by one; each time putting the card in your left hand. Each time you pick a card you must compare that card with the previous cards until you find a card that is greater than the one you have. By doing so you just sorted the deck of cards on your left hand. ...read more read more...

marlongrech.wordpress.com — One thing that I love about scripting languages is that, to test some code you do not need to create a sample application and run that application. You can simple run the interpreter, write the code you want to test and you get the results… With compiled languages this is harder to achieve. So whenever I need to test something, like for example let’s say I want to test what the .ToString() read more...

marlongrech.wordpress.com — Have you heard? The guys at Redmond impressed the world once again! .Net 3.5 SP1 is now Beta…. If you didn’t already, I would suggest that you read this brilliant post from Tim Sneath to get more info on what’s new in WPF. Today, I wanted to experiment a bit with the new Effects that were included in the SP1 Beta. These effects are the same as the BitmapEffects that were previously in WPF. One can also say that these are the replacement for the BitmapEffects. Why? read more...
