- Duncan [1] points out Tim Dawson's set of WinForms controls, all of which are either free or cheap for commercial apps. Not only are the controls well-designed and flexible, they're also documented with a set of tutorials and provide an extensive design-time experience. I don't know how someone can make a living giving this stuff away, but that doesn't mean we can't enjoy Tim's generosity.[1] http://weblogs. |

- Je tenais tout particulièrement à remercier mon enfoiré, limite enculé, d'employeur d'avoir fait tous les efforts nécessaires pour que mon salaire de misère soit versé après ce week-end. Merci à cette merveilleuse intercommunale remplie de fonctionnaires super actifs et motivés, qui non content de m'exploiter et de me faire miroiter une promesse de contrat à durée indéterminé depuis des mois, ne fait aucun geste sociale. Grâce à elle j'ai passé le week-end devant le net ou la console, toujours avec le frigo vide, sans même pouvoir m'offrir une séance de cinéma. Mais le plus horrible dans tout ça est que je n'ai pas pu fêter la St Eloi (Saint patron des métalo et grand moment d'amusement et de beuverie dans la région de Charleroi pour ces mêmes métalo) avec des ex-collègues et amis de dix ans comme il se doit. Alors cher employeur tu apprendras, toi qui en seigneur nous offrira ce mercredi un verre pour la Sainte Barbe et nous donnera gracieusement un congé ce jeudi, que cette semaine je ne vais absolument rien foutre d'autre que de chercher de l'emplois ailleurs en plus de ne pas profiter de ton drink à la con et de prendre congé vendredi pour faire le pont! |
