Sometimes American politics is just too much. Josh Marshall: Sen. Vitter, fresh off his prostitution scandal might be challenged for his seat by the chief of the Family Research Council, Tony Perkins, who presumably doesn’t sleep with prostitutes. And if porn star Stormy Daniels gets into the race, it’ll be a threesome.

This is not good

It is actually pretty FUBAR: Let’s review. We have: The head of the FBI’s national security branch The Vice Chairman of the House Intelligence subcommittee on technical and tactical intelligence. The Chairwoman of the House Intelligence subcommittee charged with overseeing the C.I.A.’s recruiting efforts in the Islamic world And they each know less — probably [...]
Read Billmon!
Posted in Politiskt / Politics, Posts in english on April 25, 2006 |
If you haven’t already, go read Billmon. Today’s topic is on approval rating and gas prices. If this continues, cholera is going to end up with a higher approval rating.

From Billmon: Editorial independence (i.e. the freedom to tell the reader or viewer what you think they need to know, rather than what you think they want to hear) has always been a rather strange artifact in a competitive, capitalist industry like journalism. And I don’t mean that state controlled media is the answer by [...]
C# Programming, Remoting in .NET
Posted in C#, .Net, Posts in english on June 9, 2005 |
This article was very useful:The Code Project – Remoting with GUIs – C# Programming. What is it about? In the author’s own words: Most introductory articles about remoting focus on console-based applications, but frequently beginners ask, “How can I do remoting with a GUI?”. I was asking the same question several months ago, but I [...]

You are done coding and it’s time for giving a demo to your boss. And while running the demo, the UI hangs. Just hangs. Damn it, you say, it was [...]
