    I attended Omar Khan's Visual Studio Codename "Orcas" Preview for AJAX Web Development this afternoon, and walked away very excited about getting my hands on it.

  • Mutex and Semaphore WaitHandles: An Overview

    I am willing to bet that every developer has been warned about the dangers of developing multi-threaded operations at some point in their career. Let's face it, we have enough to worry about with apps behaving oddly as a result of client machine setup, network configuration, and authorization changes...

    I started reading Code Complete, Second Edition about a week ago and have not been able to put it down. Most computer books I pick up are always trying to sell you an idea, they are always skewed in a way to convince you that this language or tool is the best there is.
