I got back my shiny, rebuilt PC. After putting in a detailed build request for just Visual Studio, Visio and nothing else. No frameworks, tools, .NET stuff, nothing I fired it up. I am not shocked to see a workstation filled with so many programs, SDKs, runtimes, it looks like someone vomited up the results from a Microsoft downloads search for “.NET”. I never expected my request was not honored, I figured I would get the standard “developer” build, what I am shocked with is that the development leadership group (that I am part of) directed workstation services as to what software needs...

$downloadURL = ‘http://wordpress.org/latest.zip’;
to

I’ve come to be unhappy with the jquery plugin system. I seem to be in a perpetual cycle of “lookup-download-install-initialized-use” and based on the recent milestone slippage I just don’t have the time required when the only payoff (vs. other JS libs) seems to be streamlined JavaScript package……then again aren’t all the plugins adding crazy overhead? Whatever…I’m going to use the dojotoolkit.
