Joe’s comment to the post on titles reminded me of the fact that I can create and kill a catch phrase faster than anyone else I’ve ever seen. Should I be proud of that? “puddin” (as in the pudding snacks), “yup”, and “nuff said” are merely some of my victims. A friend was talking about a Vegas trip the other day, which got me thinking about the fact that it is probably been around 4 years since the infamous “Vegas … nuf said” email. Time really flies.
Eclipse 3.1 is out today. After trying out at least 5 prereleases (including the almost final RC4), I’m very impressed with its quality. I’ve gotten my setup at work to use the build automatically feature and it almost never grinds my system to a halt despite the size of the codebase. One of these days, I’m going to build a plugin just for fun. Thinking about the way the application is structured got me thinking the other day if my dream of pluggable feature modules as the next step in software development is somehow just around the corner somewhere. If your application were just made up of a lot of features like Eclipse plugins, it would be easier to outsource.
Some days I feel like Edison. Since I’m already including one link to Warren Ellis, why not link to a little exposition on Fell. It sounds like it should be interesting, even to non-comic people since it isn’t full of superheroes or crazy stuff like that.
