    Hey @webrunner, I can see why working in a cubicle is so much better than working in a bullpen such as you've described. If I were in a situation such...

  • Reply To: Staying Focused

    @webrunner, I understand where you're coming from, but at least for me I no longer want to work in a cubicle. I did that for 5 years. It was as...

  • Reply To: The Cloudy Future in 2021

    I took a couple days off to participate in MS Ignite 2021. I caught Satya's keynote and noticed some of what you said. I think I'll have to watch it...

    Hi,

    Thanks for your question.  I wish I knew the exact answer to your question, but this is what I can tell you.  I use the webforms dll to render...

  • Reply To: Microsoft Fights Back

    Very timely, Steve. We don't use feature flags here, but I'm thinking seriously of introducing them. I handle the application build & release. Right now, it's a manual process where...

  • Reply To: Isn't it the case that an empty string is different from a null string?
