I hate databind, I hate postback, MVC please deliver.
Alright, it doesn't exactly have rhythm, but it popped in my head after wrestling a little databind/postback related bug this morning.

Hosted source control take 2
A few weeks ago, I made a post evaluating options for hosted Subversion services. At the time, I was basically drawn to an empty conclusion.

When documentation is a wee bit off
Humans are never perfect, and since humans write documentation, it isn't always 100% accurate.
