Dilbert...
Wally should have realised he was meant to write his own objectives, because "he owns his career".

Autism research
Brain inflammation link to autism
"Researcher Dr Carlos Pardo-Villamizar said: "These findings reinforce the theory that immune activation in the brain is involved in autism, although it is not yet clear whether it is destructive or beneficial, or both, to the developing brain.""

Ergnosis
A company called Ergnosis, in Bristol(!), developing an IDE. Apparently it does all sorts of things but doesn't allow you to manually edit the code yet. An interesting approach.

Googley things
Google Desktop Search is very nice and very fast. No more slow windows searches for me.
For some reason it makes me think of those Janet and John books...
"Bill looks at the computer.
The computer runs quickly.
See the computer run, Bill.
It is quick..."
However, I am not so sure about the GMail Drive shell extension. Is that allowed? When a company gives you something for free I think you should stick to the intended use.

It *is* rocket science
An interesting article on agile development being used at Lockheed Martin by a flight software development team. I liked the following line:
"Essentially, team members rely on traditional processes until they get in the way. They use the capability maturity model and concepts such as ISO, for example, but only as benchmarks for comparison and team process improvement."
In my experience it doesn't take very long before CMM and ISO start to get in the way of any project.

ASP.NET Resource kit
It's free, from Microsoft. Just like a free lunch, or free beer or something that doesn't cost anything...
