The ultimate implementation of DynamicMethod

Ok. Here.

TINAI (this is not an introduction)

Hi I’m Dave. Jack of lots of trades, master of … eh.. well… not all of them. I’m pretty good a few of them. Not sure what a master would be in any case.

I’m a sysadmin for my primary paycheck. I do lots of coding work though in the course of my sysadminship. I’ve done perl, php, c, c++, a bunch of many sorts of shell scripting even a bit of pascal (delphi for you modern folk) but my focus of late is C#. I know what you’re thinking. Microsoft. Right. Well, I’m also a capitalist, so sparing the details of the situation, it’s a Microsoft world, and I’m living in it, and lately starting to like it. .NET is quickly becoming my platform of choice, simply because it’s so accessible, and lets face it Visual Studio 2005 is a great product, even with it’s myriad of bugs and quirks. If Microsoft is delaying the release of Vista in order to provide the same amount of completeness and user facility that they did for VS 2k5, then I’m all for it. C# is also great because of the vast community of developers that share their wisdom, trials, tribulations, and code samples all over the element.
I’m a recent convert to the world of real Object Oriented Programming, and in terms of design strategy that makes me a newbie, but make no mistake my coding skills are worth at least the weight of these words in cyberspace. There are few times in ones life when they can claim their life was actually changed by a book, but for me, “Design Patterns” rewired my brain. I had to read it twice to realize the stupifying power that a rational approach to separatation and delegation of duty offers a developer such as myself. I was the type of developer who would be reading about the newest features that come out in some grand new planned system (.NET 2.0 for example) and before I could finish the first page of Docs, I was three links away in another tab trying to figure out how to implement a custom hook on it. So, sometimes I ended up in the predicament of having implemented some fancy aspect of something that’s supposed to be quite simple before I’ve ever tried the simple approach. I’m starting to change that habit, but till now it’s taken me to places I’ve been and quite enjoyed the ride as well as the results. Often times I’ll find myself saying ‘man I’d never do it that way again, but I’m sure glad I did that time.’

I learn a lot from my mistakes, and I make a ton of them. I’m not a guru, and I don’t claim to be one, but I do feel that I have a lot to offer the developer community from my experiences, contacts, adventures and misadventures. So, if you like that kind of thing, or just want someone to read who may be experiencing the same amount of frustration that you are with certain things, I’m your man. I do usually manage to find my way out of every coding jam in which I find myself, so if you come along, you’ll get there too. I don’t promise, but I propose.
