		<title>How Long To Dig A Posthole?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Some days ago at work I asked a friend what he'd done over the weekend.  "Dig a posthole," he replied. That seems an odd answer since there's quite a bit of time in a weekend.  He followed with, "How long does it take to dig a posthole?" When my wife and I moved into our [...]]]></description>

		<title>Missing A Sprint Not Considered Harmful</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Since I'm a sports guy, let's start with a sports analogy about Michael Jordan, the greatest basketball player of all time.  Over a 15-year NBA career, Michael Jordan played in over 1000 basketball games and scored over 32000 points.  In those 15 years he led his team to a total of six NBA titles. Throughout [...]]]></description>

		<title>Scrum Will Not Make You Code Faster</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It's funny how obvious this seems when you state it, yet how commonly organizations try Scrum (or any other methodology, for that matter) in an attempt to improve the speed at which developers deliver code. Take any typical software engineer from any typical software engineering organization.  Years (or months) ago, this individual was attending college, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Partial Baskets Are Still Worth 0 Points</title>
		<description><![CDATA[In the 2010-2011 NCAA basketball season, Butler University built atop an improbably successful basketball season the previous year by repeating their run to the NCAA title game.  There was a lot of hype leading into the game.  Could mid-sized Butler really topple a mighty basketball powerhouse like UConn and win a national championship? Butler came [...]]]></description>

		<title>Software Development Methodology Profile &#8211; Novell Forge</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It was the fall of 2002 and I hadn't been in Novell's Developer Services group for more than a couple of months when I realized that the way Novell was maintaining and offering their developer content was flat-out broken.  We needed a new process for delivering developer content that was a lot more dynamic and [...]]]></description>

		<title>Grading on a Scale &#8211; I Mean, a Curve</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Miguel de Icaza tweeted this today: Performance Review Season at Novell is easy when your entire team is made of 100% super-awesome hackers. It's a very nice thing for Miguel to say about his team, something I have no reason to doubt.  I don't know Miguel too well, but I have been in a handful [...]]]></description>

		<title>Guest Post: How to Launch a Privileged Process on OS X</title>
		<description><![CDATA[By: Dan Reese For security reasons, Apple recommends that GUI applications should never run with the privileges of the root user.  GUI applications normally load several types of plugins and input managers automatically. If a malicious plugin was installed then it could cause security problems when the privileged application was launched. In addition, system services [...]]]></description>

		<title>How To Ruin Your Own Vacation</title>

		<title>Automounting a VHD at system boot on Windows 7</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I'm playing around a bit more with my test machine at work, and I've been thinking, as excellent as my last setup was, it could be even better. One way to make it better was to avoid duplicating installation data and instead to put that kind of stuff on a shared VHD that all the [...]]]></description>

		<title>Multi-booting Windows 7/2008R2 From VHD</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One very useful feature of Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 is the ability to boot the OS directly from a virtual hard disk file (VHD).  This can make it pretty straightforward to be able to run a number of different versions of Windows on a single machine. I just finished converting my test [...]]]></description>
