2012-03-26: Annecy
Bored out of my mind, I decided to spend the sunny afternoon in Annecy. Walking along the lake was quite nice, however at least 10k people had the same idea. But that is just something to grow accustomed to: if you’re in any way in favor of an egalitarian society, then you should try to enjoy doing what everybody else does.
It’s 40 km from Geneva, but quite difficult to reach by public transportation (2 hours, of which there is 30 minutes of waiting in Aix-les-Bains).
On to coding: I didn’t write about this for a long time, but let’s try to get into it again, shall we?
While it is quite feasible to write programs for SharePoint in C#, setting up a decent development infrastructure is very tedious (or so they say). It’s advisable that you spend at least some time studying the Windows PowerShell functionalities that come with it. Sometimes, however, the PowerShell syntax is just so frustrating, I almost considered adding to the effort of doing it in Perl.

These times, everybody bugs me to finally go see The Hangover (imdb).
