I'm doing a webinar on June 10th that we've found very helpful to Agile/Scrum practitioners - particularly those trying to convince testers and developers to...
I am presenting a seminar this Thursday night (6:30-8pm) in our Bellevue offices. While geared toward Agile projects, this is really about how to avoid over...
Thought I'd have some fun - here's an earlier blog of mine: A couple of years ago I decided, hey, I'm CEO of a successful company, co-author of a successful...
Guernsey's Corollary: The probability of a new duplicate being introduced at any given point in time is greater with N + 1 instances than with N. Max Guernsey,...
Seems quiet. .yeah. a little too quiet. Seriously though: What about making the sprint/iteration goal a test? Max Guernsey, III Managing Member, Hexagon...
I dunno. Thinking about it. -S- From: leanprogramming@yahoogroups.com [mailto:leanprogramming@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Max Guernsey, III Sent: Wednesday,...
On a related note, I've heard "there are three numbers in programming: zero, one, and infinity." Get ready to groan. The same is true of the number of points...
Hi, On the first page of chapter 2 Bloch states that his item 1 is not the Factory Method pattern described in gang four book. You can read it here ...

I agree with Mel's response (below), and with Josh's original point, but will state it a little differently. Seeing things from multiple angles sometimes adds...
I will answer this question briefly here as I am not sure if this is the appropriate forum for discussing a Design Patterns question in a Lean Programming...
On Wed, Jul 16, 2008 at 8:30 AM, Bartels, Mel ... Are they strongly identiy coupled? If I had something like public interface Foo class FooOne implements Foo ...
... public class Factory{ public static Foo Create( int choice ) {....} } This is static factory method. No? And it's as loosely coupled as you can design for....
I just got this question off-line but thought I would answer it here. Alan, I just read you presentation material "Design Patterns Explained: From Theory To...
Ok I think the heart of my confusion has been thinking that the Gof pattern was the general notion of a factory, As Scott said, "anything that produces an...
Here are some more: "Community" "Collection" "Concentration" seems to be the best choice, as it is the only antonym of "dispersion" that I could find and...
I'll take a run at trying to clear up the point here... at least, in the way I look at it. In OO design, one thing we try to do is to avoid coupling to...
This is kind of askew the main line of the conversation, but I'll say it anyway. Scott nailed one of the reasons why encapsulated constructors are so important...

So, I've heard people say they dislike the "var" keyword in C# 3.0. Some people like it, too. I wanted to know what people generally think of it and why. ...
I like to think of type-safety in languages this a-way... We make mistakes. We try to minimize them, but we make them, and we know we make them, and so we...

I like this, Mel. If you combine my point (type safety helps prevent defects) and yours (type safety is more important under certain circumstances), I think...
To change the subject back - partially because I need to go look that other keyword up - I don't understand all of what you said. The "var" keyword has no...
... The "var" keyword has no potential to generate an exception related to type safety later on. To what exceptions down the line are you referring? <<< Sure,...
If that were the case, then. renderer.scale(service.getSomething()); .would have thrown the exact same error, right? Max Guernsey, III Managing Member, Hexagon...
Okay. I just reread this. Are you saying that the parameter of renderer.scale used something like VariantType or System.Object for its type of argument and...
