Love the weather. Fits my mood (more or less).

I've been recently tasked to design part of an accounting system for one of our clients. Implementation-wise, I'm working with the Microsoft .NET framework (C# being the preferred language) using ASP.NET.

Bored, so decided to do a meme. Ignore, if you want to.

As I type this on my phone, I’m on my way home from work. I am honestly tired. I am also a bit melancholy. For one reason or another, i get bouts of sadness. More when i get home.

I can't help it... I must post this link (and because I have a lot of better things to do...): Structured Procrastination.

On one project I was assigned to recently, I used Hibernate to manage data access. I even explained the whole deal to my technical manager and my project manager— with some level of excitement. (Okay, maybe with a lot of excitement— think a kid in a candy store).

Was showing a cow orker some nifty CSS stuff yesterday. In fact, I was practically gushing over the subject. In particular, I was gushing over this site and the fact that all the designs are CSS-based, and are using the same HTML content.
I then realized that a lot of mainstream sites are still not completely CSSified. The company I'm working in isn't using CSS extensively for site design; we currently don't have the right skillset for CSS design. It pains me that there's a lot that can be accomplished with CSS (accessibility out of the box, leaner pages, easier to maintain site design, separation of concerns), but we're not taking advantage of it. All we're doing with CSS is specifying font size and colors. Bah.
It also makes me wonder— are most web development firms, at least locally, not CSS-ready? Is there a lack of CSS designers and professionals?
Bah. I'll stick to coding Java.

So, I’m pretty behind on a lot of stuff. I haven’t had a connection at home for half a month, and so had to spend the majority of my time yesterday downloading my backlog of email. I’m behind on my work, and I’m behind on a lot of personal stuff.

Some links I found recently, after a long and lively debate I had with a co-developer about the economics of open source software. I was for open source, and my colleague was for closed source. He basically was arguing that open source fundamentally can't be sold (i.e., there is no business there, and open source will die out). I was arguing that there is a business model there somewhere.
