You know you have small kids when five hours of uninterrupted sleep feels luxurious.

Software
  • PE Explorer 1.99 - High end tool for digging into all aspects of PE files now includes a digital signature viewer.
  • JetBrains dotTrace 3.0 - New version of this profiler is out. Trial download is here, $499 to license.

Information Community
  • R.I.P Linkblog - Erik Thauvin is hanging up his long-running Java-centric linkblog. Pity. I didn't link to him often, as we're covering different areas, but it was an essential source for me.
