A Day in the Life

A day in my life. Thoughts on leadership, management, startups, technology, software, concurrent development, etc... Basically the stuff I think about from 10am to 6pm.

Code Camps are Coming...

The 3rd annual Silicon Valley Code Camp is coming in November and the San Luis Obispo Code Camp in September. I am planning on speaking at the Silicon Valley Code Camp and seriously thinking about San Luis Obispo. At past code camps I've presented on the basics of threading...the stuff that is more at the operating system level but I think vital to deciphering threads regardless of what the stack above them is..., debugging, and architecture for startups.

I have been considering putting together a talk on the process of groking a new code base, which is something all of us will have to do many times in our career. I don't know what the process is called. Maybe there isn't a name and I should make one up! Since I know some of the .NET UG members read this blog I am wondering if you guys have an opinion on what you would like to hear about.

So of the topics you've heard in the past and topics that may interest you in the future...what do you want me to speak on? I only want to do two talks so give me your ideas.

Thanks much.

A new codebase would be good. I'm doing the same thing. I put a prototype together and realized I was programming like I did Fortran. Need to rethink and keep object model in mind.
