    WPF and Notifying Property Change

    ByErik Dietrich April 8, 2011March 13, 2018

    Divide And Conquer

    ByErik Dietrich March 10, 2011September 27, 2012

    What Programmers Want In my career, I’ve participated in projects that have run the gamut of degrees of collaboration. That is to say, I’ve written plenty of software on which I served as architect, designer, implementor, tester, and maintainer and I’ve also worked on projects where I was a cog in a much larger effort….
