Hello there! My name's Jordan Earls and I'm a programmer. Recently, I've been doing almost exclusively work in .Net with C#, a bit of raw IL, and in some cases a hefty serving of code generating T4(it's the meta-future!). Sometimes I do a bit of embedded/electronic work with C and C++(http://mbed.org rocks, btw). And finally, I have at least some competence in Ruby, Delphi, and Javascript.
I currently work for PreEmptive Solutions on the Dotfuscator team and troll the dotfuscator tag on occasion.
Most of my personal projects are open source and BSD licensed. The majority of them are at bitbucket with the rest of them being listed on my projects page
Also, you can follow me on the twitters @earlzdotnet

Does anyone work 10 hours shifts as a developer? I can't put together a full answer, but I'll say I've tried it and I'd say it's not worth it |

Are there any examples of implementing and effectively responding to a “Chaos Monkey”? ...Well, I guess we're waiting for someone on the netflix team to come along and answer this lol |

Question about the no-endorsment clause on the BSD license Since I don't modify(or even distribute) any of Bcrypt's code, aren't I immune from this clause? The phrase I'm seeing is "products derived from" |

Question about the no-endorsment clause on the BSD license @Peter It's just a small project I'm trying to sell in my free time. |

Ready to Open source the software, but want to make some money out of it I personally think a 40 hour project is a pretty decent sized task. I mean, let's assume you aren't an expert in the field your project is in. This means an expert may have been able to write the exact same thing in say 20 hours. But still, even if this expert is payed $10 an hour, you're still saving that expert $100 by selling it to him for $100 (where $200 is the "actual" worth of it, but you can sell it multiple times) |

What is the best method for releasing free “extension” or example code based on a closed source proprietary project? Well basically it's extension code that will have to be modified by the end-user of my library to work with their own system. I want to provide a starting point for them though. And yea, I planned on making it BSD licensed |

Is it worth making Visual Assembly? The equivalent or writing assembly in .Net is writing IL... and that's no fun at all |

How to protect yourself from being sued by patents? I agree. I'm completely against software patents, and I'm hoping they'll go away in the years to come as this generation of youth(and technology) begins to make it's way into political positions. But, in the meantime, I don't want to get sued |

Why is (Ogg) Vorbis not automatically supported by Windows? I agree that Ogg isn't widespread enough.. It is however spreading, so maybe with the next release of Windows, they'll support it. |

How to protect yourself from being sued by patents? @Rein, he was thwarting the idea that if you mail it to yourself, then you can get the patent for it. I'm only asking if you can mail it to yourself as proof of "prior work" |

How to protect yourself from being sued by patents? Will this same strategy work if the patent reform bill passes? (one portion is the person granted the patent is the first to patent it, not the first person to invent it) |

How to protect yourself from being sued by patents? @Job I don't care if other people "steal" my idea. The only reason I'd patent it is so that I don't get sued by some troll who patents it later. |
