I'm disappointed this isn't drawing more attention in the community. This guy is going to jail for 15 months for trying to address a serious problem in our industry and Microsoft is sicking their lawyers on him to try and prove a point. Fuck you MS. This only reinforces my resolve to avoid using or buying your products whenever possible.

This echo's some thoughts I've had about application development lately especially wrt TDD.

My preferred style of app. development is much more about exploring what is possible and what works as opposed to implementing a fully fledged concept of the finished application.

I find the application begins to take on it's finished state only after I have had time to explore new ideas and techniques that I don't necessarily understand completely when I begin.

TDD seems to be tailored towards the architectural / fully conceptualized application whereas the gardening metaphor seems more appropriate for the way I tend to approach app development. I find it counter-productive to try to write tests for code before I even figure out what it will do yet. YMMV.

Thanks again Brian.

I'm fine with a tether. I just want something simple that plugs into an HDMI or thunderbolt port and projects my laptop screen into the headset

Does anyone have a good resource covering Headset Hardware reviews and specs?

I researched this recently looking for an HDMI compatible AR headset to try command line coding with but it was tough to find concise feature/spec/price comparisons.

Sign of the times I guess.
