ASP.NET 5 How to Easily Add New Bower Dependencies

ASP.NET 5 How to Easily Add New Bower Dependencies:

With ASP.NET 5 we have a new way to manage client side libraries, including JavaScript and CSS libraries. Prior to ASP.NET 5, out of the box, for client side libraries you could use Nuget or just manually download the files. Problem with Nuget for client side is someone has to maintain that list and there aren’t anywhere near as many in Nuget as there are in already maintained client side packaging systems. You can always manually download them, but obviously that leads to maintenace issues of keeping them updated.

The ultimate programming language

The ultimate programming language:

One of my favorite bloggers had an article last month that resulted in a rather interesting conclusion; that the ultimate programming language is a language without a lot of features most developers take for granted. As I read the article I started to wonder how much was actually cynical since a language without all the features described at first feel ridiculous. However if you look at every one of the language features discussed in isolation there is a good argument for not using each one of the features so why not do without all of them?

DevOps: DIY vs. Commercial

DevOps: DIY vs. Commercial:

I've had the opportunity to attend a number of DevOps Days events. These are informal, community-based conferences devoted to a critical topic: how to get applications into production more quickly. DevOps Days speakers are always inspirational as they outline the immense challenges they faced and what they’ve done to improve things -- and the improvements are often dramatic. A common refrain in these presentations is how they moved to standardized resources like commonly configured virtual machines to allow automation -- often described as “moving away from snowflakes.” In other words, a necessary step in achieving automation is removing variance to allow common configuration automation.

4 Reasons to Employ Older Developers

4 Reasons to Employ Older Developers:

If you’re 40 or older, you’ve probably seen cases where younger developers were picked over older ones. It happened to me once while recruiting a programmer: After all the interviews, I’d narrowed the candidates down to a 28-year-old and a 60-year-old. Both were very good, and I thought the 60-year-old was better, but the senior manager tasked with the final selection picked the younger developer.

When Security Conflicts With UX, Who Wins?

When Security Conflicts With UX, Who Wins?:

Last week my company launched one of our side projects, Qup, to the app store. During the submission process, we ran into a rejection issue that surprised me.
