When I was in music college, the Head of the Brass Department had been a child virtuoso. He simply didn't understand why people would make dumb mistakes. If...
Avi, ... I'm not really a TDD purist - so although "sad but true" - it seems realistic to me. If people ask me, I usually say something like: "if you can...
I wonder if for applications,which involve lot of just CRUD functionality,is TDD a good way to go.Because,mostly you are just taking data from forms and...
Hello, kumbhkaran_21. On Tuesday, January 2, 2007, at 8:00:38 AM, ... Do these applications ever have defects in them? If so, what kinds, and when and how are...
kumbhkaran_21 I would ask what is it you are trying to do. If it *really* is just CRUD, then you can just generate the code, no need to write or design...
... The Ruby on Rails framework was invented, via TDD, to support all kinds of web development, and to make basic CRUD absurdly easy. Under Rails, you can...
Rauchy, First off, I wish you all the luck in the world with this. It's a noble and fun thing to be a teacher/coach. I wish I could do it more. Second, I think...
TDDers: In a desparate attempt to catch up to the 1990s, I started a blog: http://phlip.eblogs.com/2007/01/02/growl-driven-development/ This entry is about One...
There is one more step that you must take to know whether or not what you've done is sufficient. You need to take the picture that resulted from your fiddling...
Hello, Kelly. On Tuesday, January 2, 2007, at 6:57:20 PM, you ... This is some new use of the term "must take" that I wasn't previously familiar with. What we...
Ok, perhaps "must take" is a bit strong. But as I remember, your source code worked on binary images to count the hits. Without going through the final...
Hello, Kelly. On Tuesday, January 2, 2007, at 10:51:22 PM, you ... I think so. I think you are missing that we ARE counting the dots. Remember that you...
A Simple Presentation Layer Architecture One of the most widely agreed upon architectural features of well designed programs is the three tiered architecture....
I'm still confused. How can you count the dots without creating a binary image? Or is that just such a trivial step that you skipped it in your explanation? I...
... In my experience (mostly web forms, some for intranet systems and sometimes for external we systems), there is usualy more to it than just the CRUD...
Hello, Kelly. On Wednesday, January 3, 2007, at 12:42:07 AM, you ... I counted the dots in the 770-dot BMP file, in the article Shotgun Hit Consolidation, ...
Hello, Kelly. On Wednesday, January 3, 2007, at 12:27:43 AM, you ... This is a very interesting and potentially very valuable article. I say potentially...
Shooting in All Directions Ron Jeffries 01/03/2007 Chet and I get together for the first time in 2007, to some useful effect. Also I try to provide a bit more...
Kelly, There's a lot of good stuff, there. Since I'm not very conversant in that area, I'm not going to comment on the .NET packaging issues. I would like to...

I'm going to top-post here, because of the length of the article. Aside from the earlier points made by others, I'm not a big fan of multiple-layered anything...
I understand what you're saying about the formatting. It is important. However, on mailing lists, I've had complaints in the past about posting formatted...
Hello, Kelly. On Wednesday, January 3, 2007, at 1:20:53 PM, you ... Yes. Wasn't suggesting presenting the dead ends, was suggesting presenting the ideas...
... Having known some "shooters", I'm pretty sure that, for them, keeping the paper in pristine condition wouldn't be a top priority. They'd fold it, get it...
Maybe you could cut it into little squares and run it through an old card reader. I'm sure the Smithsonian still has one ;-) Heck, Ron probably has one...
I'm interested in what you're saying here Chris because event management is (in my experience) a relatively difficult thing in any .Net program regardless of...
Hi, Cory, ... Yeah, Ron - you can save a lot of postage if, instead of having the clients send you the paper, they just send you the holes! >;-> Peace, --Carl...
Hello, Cory. On Wednesday, January 3, 2007, at 2:21:31 PM, you ... At these prices, they'd best not do that! ;-> We're thinking that the paper will be sent...
Hello Kelly, That is an interesting idea. However, I am concerned that it would exacerbate the problem of the holes closing up. As the the project's...
