(OT) Epicurious Microbrewery Tour

Man can not live by .NET alone.  Or perhaps All .NET and no play makes Jim a dull boy. I agree with Rory about coders needing a third place. So like Kent I've started a beer category.

Epicurious had a tour of the Otter Creek Microbrewery in Vermont on today's show. The rest of the show was about pairing beer with food. 

YUM!

On a related note I'm down to one keg left of my Red Ale.  Time to fire up the brew kettle soon.

Interfaces

Many of you know that I’m pretty new to OOP and as such I’m continuously surprised by a lot of the goodies built into Visual Studio.NET.  So if you’re an old hand at all of this then just feel free to skip this post. Anyway here’s my latest surprise.  I just built my first Interface (IUser) which was cool but then when I went to create a class that implements it as soon as I type “Implements IUser” and hit Enter Visual Studio pre-enters all of the setup code for the class based upon what I’d put in the interface.  It was one of those “Hey that was pretty cool,” moments.  Well done again to the VS.NET team at Microsoft. I’m a VB guy so I haven’t tried it in C# yet but I’m sure it works the same.
