Start using SVN.
woaksie 17 months ago

I use this for personal projects and like it. I have worked on one joint project using subversion and found the merge conflict to be wanting. I have never found a really good solution to this.



Become a better programmer
Nothin but .NET developer boot camp 17 months ago

I did this week long course a few weeks ago. I got so much from this and am still digesting the material we covered. This has made me a better programmer.

It was intense.

I would recommend this to anyone who is serious about advanced .NET, patterns, tools and OO development.

Check out JP’s videos on DNRTV to catch his style.



not have children
Just say no people... 17 months ago

Ugh, all my friends are having kids and are miserable. I miss them but I am a lot happier than them…



Send a message in a bottle
I did with success. 17 months ago

When traveling in Europe with my parents when I was about 15 I used to put a message and contact details in the empty wine bottles my parents produced. I got two replies. Unfortunately I did not reply back but I thought it was cool.



join an auto co-op
This is a no brainer ;-) 17 months ago

I’m also a member of the Co-operative Auto Network in Vancouver!

Other than that I bike, walk or bus everywhere.



reduce my carbon footprint
Our roof.... 17 months ago

is flat and out of sight. It would be a great place for a solar panel – but what kind? Doing what?



Read "The Pragmatic Programmer"
Other books too 17 months ago

This is the list of books I am hoping to read soon.

Get away from my computer more 17 months ago

I am too comfy at home. I need to get out more.



run a marathon
Did the Victoria Marathon 17 months ago

This had been on my list for a while. It was tough but am so glad I did it.
