  1. @Iomhair Yeah, you never did explain that at lunch. How DID you manage to do that?
  2. @zaoo Yea, and Samsung before that I think. They didn't seem to take off. Not sure this would either, but it might be interesting.
  3. Apple files a patent for a way to provide haptic feedback on the iPhone: http://ping.fm/4669D
  4. VS 2010 drops C++/CLI Intellisense... nothing makes a product better like cutting features, right? http://ping.fm/KCLI8 (see comments)
  5. One must explicitly specify Path for a Binding markup extension when a custom attached property is involved. Imagine that.
  6. SlimDX lead Promit Roy has been awarded MVP status by Microsoft!
  7. My old boss (Brian Reynolds) has left the studio he co-founded (Big Huge Games): http://ping.fm/d7KXT
  8. had a moment of panic: a batch file bug caused his P4 workspace to map incorrectly, resulting in an (apparent) loss of all Friday's work.
  9. dug into the DXGI object tracking issue. The results ain't good. Might end up with some amusing "you are your child's child" scenarios.
  10. Looks like there are some DXGI interfaces that can't be handled by SlimDX's current ancillary object system. Hmm.
  11. Has anybody noticed the iPod application "skipping" post iPhone 3.0 upgrade? I've heard it a few times now, but not reliably.
  12. Early morning database migrations are a great way to start a Friday.
  13. is amused that people are finding his website via Google searches like "develop ninja C#" and "scientific mmo psp."
  14. To continue the saga of SlimDX architecture posts, Promit has written about the venerable DataStream: http://ping.fm/DzKRc
  15. ZeniMax Media now owns id Software. That was out of left field. http://tinyurl.com/lmzerw
  16. has emptied out his Outlook inbox while waiting for Perforce to catch up.
  17. @mkerstein That sounds like a good, clean, family game!
  18. @angrylemon Let me know when the control stations for the orbital laser platforms are in play.
  19. IT has taken my machine to the computer graveyard. Now I have to wander the office forlornly until they bring me a new one.
  20. @SpreeTree So things are going well then?
