Introduction

Developer at ZocDoc

What languages/frameworks do you use (Java, .NET, PHP, Ruby, etc.)?

C#/jQuery/SQL Server for most day to day work. I like F# too, but don't get to use it much.

What topics might you be interested in?

Scalability

Do you have any specific areas of expertise? Would you be willing to share it with the group?

abusing c#, .net framework tricks, instrumenting your application stack

What is your favorite unit test framework and why?

Code Contracts -- a static analysis framework for .NET where you embed asserts in your code and they generate compile time errors. Replaces guard clauses and eliminates the need for a bunch of unit tests that would have checked bad inputs. Selenium -- I generally prefer integration testing to unit testing, more complexity usually comes from 2 systems interacting than from the systems themselves. I mostly use nUnit for unit tests, but have dabbled with other frameworks.

What is your favorite version control system and why?

Mercurial! DVCS is the bomb! I think Git is cool too.
