Well, I have not done one of these is a while…I could say that I have been busy, but I have not been 🙂

I have been finishing up at Merrill Lynch in lue of starting my new job at Aggreko, and as I finished up on Friday, and I don’t start till Monday, you could say that I am currently Unemployed. If only for a week…

After my woefully presentation last Monday and my lack of knowledge on CLR, I have vowed to rectify the defect in the depth of my knowledge. This will not be hard, but I will need to re-buy the CLR book that I had as it was returned to ML along with all of the books I bought for my MCPD training.

Well, in the last month (yes I know I said I would do this every week) I have:

  • upgrade a server from TFS 2005 to TFS 2008 Beta 2. With absolutely no problems, except those I made for myself and expected…
  • assisted with the Installation of a TFS server in the USA, and helped them with many errors. All of which I had had during my deployment to the same infrastructure…
  • started reading about Sharepoint and BizTalk, although I have to confess I have not got far through the books…
  • written an About Me page for my blog as a one stop for lots of info about me…
  • started looking at VS2008 and its features. Its my sole development platform at home as my trial of Team Suit 2005 has expired…
  • writing a multi-part article on how to create a TFS Event Handler…I’m at part 2 at the moment…
  • interviewing for a job at Microsoft…
  • Oh, and playing with my beautiful 3 month old baby girl…

 

That’s about it for now…Back to my unemployment :), and enjoying the rare Scottish sun…

The Boards in Azure DevOps are a powerful tool that your teams can leverage to enable transparent visualization of the current state of value delivery.  However, the inclusion of Blocked columns can stealthily erode the very foundations of efficiency these boards are meant to uphold. By obfuscating the state of …
