Unnatural acts on source code

Teaching Reflection

I am going to teach Reflection to my students tomorrow. Instead of going by the book, I think that we will implement an IoC container. Nothing like going into the nuts & bolts of it in order to make people understand how stuff works.

They are Morts, so this ties in very well into the discussion that I had on the weekend, about Mort's abilities.

I'll report on Friday...

Real life samples always help more to understand one thing better. IoC is an excellent point to start since interfaces are "discrete" things somehow. It is a little bit hard to understand if you haven't seen real life samples.

I really wish that i was your student

I don't like the idea of retargeting user roles to categorize people.

I would be interested in seeing any notes and code generated from this test.

As I'm about to teach the exact same thing on Sunday, it could be nice to hear your conclusions...

What exactly do you teach, and to what audience? This sounds like fun.

MCPD course, developers who are learning .NET

It is fun, but also very tiring.

Somewhat off-topic, but what the heck...

Florian: "I don't like the idea of retargeting user roles to categorize people."

While I argue for the elimination of the "Mort" role for a variety of reasons, I would also argue that any user role that can't and/or shouldn't be used to categorize people is by definition invalid and should be eliminated for that reason alone.

Yeah, like Stephen Colbert doesn't see color, I don't see morts.

Hmm, wouldn't your method be like throwing people who can't swim in the middle of the ocean? I mean, yeah, the folks who survived would know how to swim, but everyone else would have drowned.
