ma sono sicuramente da evitare le donne molto permalose, poco curiose, fortemente abitudinarie e quindi pigre (soprattutto mentalmente) e che fanno le cose per ripicca ..

magari sono anche delle tenerone e ti conquistano per quello, ma alla lunga sono decisamente insostenibili ..

chiaramente dal mio punto di vista

Trovarsi insieme è un inizio, restare insieme un progresso, lavorare insieme un successo.

A decision without tradeoffs…

isn’t a decision.

The art of good decision making is looking forward to and celebrating the tradeoffs, not pretending they don’t exist.

var worker = new BackgroundWorker();
worker.DoWork += (sender, e) =>
{
  throw new InvalidOperationException("oh shiznit!");
};
worker.RunWorkerCompleted += (sender, e) =>
{
  if(e.Error != null)
  {
    MessageBox.Show("There was an error! " + e.Error.ToString());
  }
};
worker.RunWorkerAsync();

You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.

Ciò che manca veramente è la “killer-application” (pardon, “killer-App”), quel generatore di benefici che traghetti il Mobile verso il “…non ne potremo più fare a meno !”.

Individuare la killer-App non è affatto banale [...]

Però vi posso dire dove non guardare; sicuramente non verrà fuori finché continueremo ad ostinarci a considerare lo smartphone o il tablet come un computer senza tastiera. Traslocare le applicazioni tradizionali da PC verso il Mobile limitandosi ad adattarsi all’interfaccia touch non è certo la strada da seguire.

[...] il Mobile ha caratteristiche che lo distinguono radicalmente dal computer tradizionale – la killer-App sfutterà sicuramente queste peculiarità.

Nella nostra ricerca concentriamoci quindi sul fatto che il Mobile (…ragionevolmente…) è sempre con noi, è sempre disponibile, sa sempre dove siamo (GPS/bussola), conosce i nostri amici, colleghi e parenti (i contatti in Rubrica), sa in anticipo dove saremo, chi incontreremo e cosa faremo (il Calendar), è in grado di recuperare facilmente informazioni tempestive online, ecc.

User Interface, User Experience

• Beginner’s Guide to Landing Pages on KISSmetrics – A well-designed landing page can greatly increase conversions for your PPC or email marketing campaigns. Rather than directing visitors from those sources to your general website (where they may have a hard time finding what they’re looking for), you can direct them to a specially-designed landing page that steers them in exactly the direction you want them to take.
• Landing Page Best Practices: the definitive guide (with infographics) – We (at Visual Website Optimizer) are starting a series on the blog where the experts in A/B testing, landing pages, conversion rate optimization will share everything they know about how to increase sales and conversions online.
• Responsive Web Design: What It Is and How To Use It – Responsive Web design is the approach that suggests that design and development should respond to the user’s behavior and environment based on screen size, platform and orientation. The practice consists of a mix of flexible grids and layouts, images and an intelligent use of CSS media queries. As the user switches from their laptop to iPad, the website should automatically switch to accommodate for resolution, image size and scripting abilities. In other words, the website should have the technology to automatically respond to the user’s preferences. This would eliminate the need for a different design and development phase for each new gadget on the market.
• Fight Div-itis and Class-itis With the 960 Grid System – The 960 Grid System encourages the addition of <div> elements and class attributes, especially on complicated pages. Is this really an improvement over nested tables? Creating cleaner code means going beyond the framework and thinking about what it really represents.
• 100+ free HTML email templates – For too long HTML email has been the ugly step-child of the web. It’s time for a change, so we teamed up with some seriously talented designers to bring their skills to the world of HTML email. Every template has been thoroughly tested in more than 20 of the most popular email clients like Outlook 2010, Gmail, Lotus Notes, Apple Mail, the iPhone, and more. They’re ready to roll and are completely free.

Development

• Creating a NuGet Package in 7 easy steps – Plus using NuGet to integrate ASP.NET MVC 3 into existing Web Forms applications – Last month I (Scott Hanselman) wrote a post called Integrating ASP.NET MVC 3 into existing upgraded ASP.NET 4 Web Forms applications where I showed a very manual and very painful way to add ASP.NET MVC support to an existing ASP.NET WebForms application. You’d then have a lovely hybrid that is both MVC and WebForms.
• Integrating jQuery DataTables plugin into ASP.NET MVC applications – JQuery DataTables plugin is an excellent client-side component that can be used to create rich-functional tables in the web browser. This plugin adds lot of functionalities to the plain HTML tables that are placed in web pages such as filtering, paging, sorting, changing page length etc. By default it works with client side rows that are rendered in table (in <tbody> </tbody> section in the HTML code of the table) but it might be configured to use data from the server via Ajax calls. However, to integrate DataTables with server-side code developer must know protocols and parameters that are sent by DataTables and how to use them on server side. This article shows how JQuery DataTables plugin can be integrated into ASP.NET MVC application. It contains step by step examples that show how DataTables plugin interacts with server-side components.
• Synchronicity – A Folder Synchronizing Application – I needed an app that would sync up folders that didn’t involve anything more tedious than just copying the files somewhere. Yes, I’m aware of programs like Microsoft Sync Toy and a third-party product called Sure-Sync, but being a programmer, I figured this would be a fairly straightforward application to write myself. After all, it doesn’t have to be battle-tested for public consumption, and I wanted a certain degree of control over precisely how it works. Besides, it’s more fun to write code than it is to install someone else’s. This article (and the code it describes) is the result.
• SharpPcap – A Packet Capture Framework for .NET – Packet capturing (or packet sniffing) is the process of collecting all packets of data that pass through a given network interface. Capturing network packets in our applications is a powerful capability which lets us write network monitoring, packet analyzers and security tools. The libpcap library for UNIX based systems and WinPcap for Windows are the most widely used packet capture drivers that provide API for low-level network monitoring. Among the applications that use libpcap/WinPcap as its packet capture subsystem are the famous tcpdump and Wireshark. In this article, we will introduce the SharpPcap .NET assembly (library) for interfacing with libpcap or winpcap from your .NET application and will give you a detailed programming tutorial on how to use it.

Going Fluent with NHibernate

• Your very first NHibernate application – Part 1 – In this series of articles Gabriel Schenker want to show and discuss which pieces are needed to successfully write an application based on NHibernate and Fluent NHibernate.
• NerdDinner with Fluent NHibernate Part 1 – The domain model – This is the first post in a series of three where I’m going to see how we can change the NerdDinner project to use Fluent NHibernate instead of LINQ to SQL
