Microsoft has announced that the Expression suite of design tools is no more. It has been removed from sale immediately and it has been placed on a maintenance only status until it reaches its end of life. However it's not all bad news...

Expression Blend will be integrated into Visual Studio.

...What was one of the most interesting things I learned during this project was using different algorithms and seeing how they affected performance. The biggest performance boost I got was from switching from Insertion Sort to Heap sort when sorting data points by date...

This one has been on my todo pile for a while, so as long as I am in ranting mode, I might as well get this off of my chest. It is a problem that is highly prevalent on many game developer forums, and especially so on one I often frequent, GameDev.net. Often, people will ask the question: "What should I do about college, is a game degree right for me?"

get both degrees..Will Not require much more effort.If you have spare cells then learn accounting also as only that will last much longer.

Definitely get a computer science degree (preferably from a reputable University). I think game development is becoming like becoming an actor in Hollywood. Lots of people go to Hollywood hoping to make it big, but only a few actually make it big. Computer science is a broad field, keep all your options open.

Work began on the Hurd, the true kernel of the GNU operating system, in May 1991, but it has yet to materialise as a production-ready kernel. Richard Hillesley tells the story…

Nice review. When Linux had got dynamically pluggable modules, that is long ago, HURD had lost its single advantage. Since it was equally possible not to make modules pluggable, Linux was more flexible and had, even theoretically, better performance. No wonder nobody wanted HURD, a solution in search for a problem.
The only real difference between Linux and HURD is that HURD makes it easier for everybody to be a kernel hacker - something the process of Linux kernel development have proven to be fatal. Mr. Stollman thought that loosely organized crowds can do everything and was wrong. Linux has one digit percent penetration on the desktop just because the quality bar for poorly organized crowds in not too high. Mr. Stallman thought that what looks like a better design actually is a better design and was wrong. An experimental proof is always necessary. Finally, Mr. Stallman wanted GNU/Linux revealing his zero understanding of the idea of a trade mark. Tools have no right to claim products, if he was blinded by his ideas enough not to see that, no wonder Linus provided developers with better toys.

Quote: The Register
There’s a kind of cognitive dissonance in most people who’ve moved from the academic study of computer science to a job as a real-world software developer. The conflict lies in the fact that, whereas nearly every sample program in every textbook is a perfect and well-thought-out specimen, virtually no software out in the wild is, and this is rarely acknowledged.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

Microsoft Small Basic puts the fun back into computer programming. With a friendly development environment that is very easy to master, it eases students of all ages into the world of programming. This list will eventually contain every program made via Small Basic. Explore the code, play with the apps... and submit your own.

Earlier this year I left the comfortable world of XAML and WPF behind and began developing almost exclusively in JavaScript. My daily focus has also switched from developing desktop applications to Single Page Applications (SPAs) using ASP.NET MVC and KnockoutJS: but, as we’ll see, JavaScript does not restrict me to web development.... I thought long and hard before making the move and, after twelve years in one place, I even changed jobs to facilitate the effort. I thought it would be worthwhile to share some of my reasoning behind this latest change of direction. We unfairly blame JavaScript for things that are not its fault.

Nobody likes to read complex code, especially if it’s someone’s else code. A preventive approach to block any complex code entering the application is by watching its complexity carefully. There are many measures of code complexity, the popular ones are McCabes cyclomatic complexity and Halsteads complexity. For JavaScript applications, there is a new tool from Phil Booth called JSComplexity which can be used to analyze your code and find out the complexity measures. As an example, let's look at the relative complexity of some popular JavaScript frameworks...

Why does Ruby share a single value across all of the subclasses? Why have a distinction between “class variables” and “class instance variables?” Where do these ideas come from? It turns out the answer is simple: class variables in Ruby work the same way class variables work in a much older language called Smalltalk. Class variables aren’t the only idea Ruby took from Smalltalk.
