  1. I was wondering earlier today whether MagLev had become vapourware but it appears a public alpha has just been released http://bit.ly/8rvHIP
  2. Wow, @foursquare has included Sydney, Melbourne AND Brisbane as new supported cities. Sorry Sadeliade!
  3. As @grabcocque says, there are sexy alternatives (too many?) to Java on the JVM; Groovy, Scala, Clojure, JRuby... but who do you sue? :-)
  4. So yeah, wake me up when Java has closures at the end of 2010...
  5. Java7 is getting closures, woopee. Meanwhile C# already has lambda syntax, LINQ & in 2010 a 1st class func lang F#, dynamic, STM & contracts
  6. Sam Worthington said 'blah blah sepos blah blah' on the 7PM Project. This is technically racism, no? Yet its ok because its about Americans?
  7. @julielermanvt Definitely v1. Appreciate that v4 makes many things better, but I am not in a position to develop with beta software.
  8. @cameronreilly Try gomockingbird.com
  9. @paul_okeeffe A spare billion huh? Next time drinks are on you then!
  10. @smithcdau Isn't a daily retro just the standup you have the following morning?
  11. This tenor group 'The Priests' look like they might moonlight as a hit squad for the Vatican.
  12. @radovanmihok What about radovanmihok.com? Surely not? Better register it NOW if it isn't!
  13. Restating the obvious but the Entity Framework is just not a serious ORM at this point in time...
  14. @cameronreilly And what's your opinion of Brisbane and its cultural scene? Up and coming, already here, or depressingly absent?
  15. Tis 8:30pm & my flat is being buzzed by Blackhawk helicopters... the start of an Aussie coup d'état? No, it's training http://bit.ly/40IMOq
  16. zOMG, Rove just announced that he is quitting the show.
  17. Virgin Blue giveth and Virgin Blue taketh away... The upgrade to Gold membership was a mistake. Shame, might be flying soon.
  18. What are the strongest alternatives to the iTunes music store in Oz... Is there any decent competition?
  19. Wow... Steve Jackson's 'Fighting Fantasy' books coming to the iPhone.
  20. @paul_okeeffe So why not by the ethanol anyway? Support our cane growers!
