haacked.com — "Postel wrote that in an RFC that defined TCP, but it applies much more broadly. It’s natural that developers, used to the exacting nature of writing code for a compiler, where even the most minor of typos can bring a program screeching to a halt, have a tendency to apply such exactitude on their users." read more...

Screw 2.0, I'm Going Straight to 3.0

weblogs.asp.net — Recently the discussion came up about using .NET 2.0 in some future products. I work on server products, and we've been using 2.0 there for a while.

If they try to install the app, but can't because they need to be an administrator to install the .NET framework 2.0, we probably just lost out on the sale. I would venture to guess that a significant chunk of our customers fall into the non-administrator group, so this is a big problem. read more...
