Yes, I know. It’s down. Comms have been made to the proper channels regarding addressing the matter. We’ll have to wait to see what happens. If, after 7 days since the outage (20110814), nothing is heard, meet up in IRC:

“Type More, Do Less” – F# ASP.NET MVC 3

19Jan11

EDIT: I had plans on making my own MVC3 project, either hybrid or complete F#, but alas, someone beat me to it.

I recently downloaded a Visual Studio project template enabling F# users to finally do a full-scale ASP.NET MVC3 development project. For those familiar with the default HomeController class (usually seen in the regular C# based ASP.NET MVC3 projects), here’s example code:

namespace FSharpMVC3.Web.Controllers

open System.Web
open System.Web.Mvc

[<HandleError>]
type HomeController() =
    inherit Controller()
    member x.Index () : ActionResult =
        x.ViewData.["Message"] <- "Welcome to ASP.NET MVC!"
        x.View() :> ActionResult
    member x.About () =
        x.View() :> ActionResult

Now, see, isn’t that a lot less code? This is what I’ve been on about regarding F#: It’s clean, gets to the point of the matter, and does more in less lines of code, and with less of the syntactical ceremony that comes with C#, even VB.NET.

Venison Chili Spinach Salad

I recently was given 6 lbs. of ground venison from a charity, which was really nice because in some parts of Europe ground venison can cost up to €50.00 or more!

…Unless, of Course, There’s a DISASTER

20Sep10

A tornado ripped through our neighbourhood recently, and I’m assembling some video for display of the damage it had done. Tornadoes aren’t generally known to blow through my area, as usually the Appalachian Foothills break up most rough weather.

For now, here’s a peek at what reporters eat in the wild:
