This is not a title I just came up with. This is directly from Technet: https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn646905.aspx Ok, I’m starting to wonder what am I up against this time around..
Yesterday, my fellow Dynamics CRM consultant Natalia Shlega who I talk a lot to (the main reason being not so much the fact that she’s a CRM consultant, though that does contribute.. but, rather, the fact that we happened to be married) pointed me to an article describing status reason transitions in Dynamics CRM. What… Read More »
There was a controversial article by Alex St. John last week where he went on saying that game developers should be prepared to work 80 hours per week, presumably not compensated for those extra 40 hours. This article was mentioned in my CodeProject subscription – that`s how I happened to find it. But here is… Read More »
There are people who inspire, who seem to know what they are doing, and in whose presence you start seeing the picture. We call them visionaries. Somehow, I was wondering what differentiates visionary people from others. And, then, I realized that, while talking about this quality of the human beings, we often use it in an… Read More »

Every now and then, when our constantly-getting-older (but still not obsolete.. not even quite old yet) car needs some extra attention because of her age, we start looking around to see what could possibly replace her. This time around, there seem to be a few electric cars on the horizon which, I thought, would be… Read More »
I was always a little too lazy to really learn all those software design patterns, and it’s probably time to fill the gaps. However, there would be no fun in re-writing the definitions of the design patterns again and again.. I figured a little challenge might help. How about trying to find software design patterns in… Read More »
What are the reasons I’m blogging? Even if it only happens occasionally? I used to blog in the past for a few years, then I sort of lost connection with that first blog.. And, eventually, I closed it. Now I’m starting to do it again, so why? This blog is not about making money –… Read More »
I am surprised how software architecture discipline is suffering from the lack of self-identity, so I’m going to rant about it in this post.. just for the record, there will be no yet another definition of what software architecture is below. Why do I think there is a problem with the software architecture discipline? Let’s… Read More »
