| 5. |  | The Venting Game - Captured: 23-1-2005 15:15:41
As all large corporations Microsoft also has a few execs who see little of what comes
from their work. Thats the problem with living the 40 000 feet scenario continuously.
On the other hand there are these others who have never understood that 40 000 above
reality is pretty high and some greasy details never make it there. The problem here
is misunderstanding. While the execs get news papers to communicate with the folks
below 40 000 feet, the rest of the world never get... From: Benjamin J. J. Voigt :: Creativity is Inspired by Activity |

| 7. |  | Turn of the tide - Captured: 30-12-2004 10:54:00 So 2004 winds to a close. The devastation in Indonesia and Thailand beggars description (despite all the news commentators, who still find ways to talk about something that just leaves me speechless). Advances and retreats in medicine are announced every day. I'm trying to do one of those "sum up" blog posts and I really can't. Microsoft's pace (up until the beauty of the holiday weeks, when no one is here) has been such that it's been hard to remember what I did the week before, never mind 52 w...

It is a baby-step on the way to the final release, but an important baby step. While the install experience is not as seamless as we would like, the drop does runs great on XP… I can’t wait to see the apps you folks come up that use the cool features of Indigo and Avalon together.

| 10. |  | Less choice leads to better results? - Captured: 8-1-2005 5:23:13
Less choice leads to better results.
Higher level languages and frameworks
restrict choice.
Thus, higher level languages and
frameworks should lead to better results.
The “less choice” statement

Cuts. Ignore the politics
and focus on the research beneath the statement. That’s what is valuable in
this context.
