Global Sexism
The same article points to a report from the World Economic Forum on gender parity. The Wall Street Journal reports that after 128 years in business, The Bank of Japan has promoted its first female branch manager. This example points clearly to the self-destructive sexism that will doom Japan to decline. Japan has a severely low birthrate which will put immense pressure on their economy as their population ages and shrinks rapidly. They need more people, yet they refuse to allow immigration. m going to miss Japan when it finally disappears. It’s atrociously stupid.

Unity, Multiple Constructors and Configuration
Its mostly straightforward as IoC containers go but one thing had me puzzled for a while as its not really documented or blogged as far as I can see; so I decided to blog it so hopefully others looking will stumble across this article. I’ve been working with the Unity IoC container from Microsoft Patterns and Practices recently. Lets start off with a simple example: I have two interfaces: IService and IRepository that live in the Interfaces class library. 1: public interface IService. 3: void DoWork(); 4: }. 1: public interface IRepository. 3: string GetStuff(); 4: }. and MyService.

A3 reports: templates and observations
For a shorter version check out Shook’s article in the MIT Sloan Management review, “Toyota’s Secret: The A3 report”. As I mentioned last time, I recently delivered a course on Lean software development in Oslo. One of the exercises I set people was to produce an A3 report. A3 reports, for those unfamiliar with them are a mechanism used at Toyota to analyse issues and suggest solutions, or rather “counter measures”. The term “counter measures” is preferred over solution because no “solution” is ever the end of the story. This is the template to use for real outside the classroom.

MongoDB vs. SQL Server 2008 Performance Showdown
This article is a follow up one I wrote last week entitled “The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!”. In that article I introduced the NoSQL movement, MongoDB, and showed you how to program against it in.NET using LINQ and NoRM. For ease-of-use, you’ll have to want to read the original article. This article is about the performance argument for MongoDB over SQL Server (or MySql or Oracle). In the first article, I threw out a potentially controversial graph showing MongoDB performing 100 *times* better than SQL Server for inserts. Those were. Your Turn.

Building Windows Machines in Amazon EC2
In this article I'm going to give you a simple, step-by-step overview of how to create a Windows 2008 server image in Amazon's Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) infrastructure. Tags: Articles Tools Now I must admit I'd rather have found a good tutorial on The Internets or even in a book. Feel free to send me any I missed. My experience is they are either dated or about Linux and so on. First, briefly why does one care about EC2? That's a great reason and Microsoft and Google have interesting plays there too. Personally I just want a simpler way to create virtual machines. Here we go.

The NoSQL Movement, LINQ, and MongoDB - Oh My!
Articles ASP.NET Open Source Talks Tools web2.0Maybe you’ve heard people talking about ditching their SQL Servers and other RDBMS entirely. There is a movement out in the software development world called the "No SQL" movement and it’s taking the web application world by storm. Insanity!” you may cry, “for where will people put their data if not in a database? Flat files? Tell me we aren’t we going back to flat files.”. No, but in the relational model, something does has to give. Starting from an RDBMS is virtually an axiom of software development. The converse is, of course, also true.
