Everytime I read another post about the simplicity and affordability of moving to Rails I go hmm; this time I’m going HMMMMM!
InfoQ: Architecting TekPub – Moving from ASP.NET MVC to Ruby on Rails.
With a new Windows7 VM on my MBP I have MSSQL Server 2008 R2, vs2008, vs2010…and sadly SourceGear Vault 3.5 which made it so SQL couldn’t connect to a server via the object browser.
Looked like this:
Unable to cast COM object of type ‘System.__ComObject’ to interface type ‘Microsoft.VisualStudio.OLE.Interop.IServiceProvider’. This operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID ‘{6D5140C1-7436-11CE-8034-00AA006009FA}’ failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0×80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)).
These helpful posts fixed me up:

Don Dodge on The Next Big Thing: The natural evolution of a startup and why it is bad. Good general overview, in a related sad note I have yet to experience all of these phases. Greatly looking forward to be able to have strongĀ argumentsĀ for or against this in the future.
