		<title>Null parameter values are evil</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the ideas I suggested in my last post was, What if C#: prohibited passing null as method parameters In this post I&#8217;ll discuss why I feel it&#8217;s a good thing, and why it&#8217;s entirely feasible to do. So what the hell am I talking about when I say null parameter values are evil? [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sunshine Retrospective</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday our team ended the week with an outdoor retrospective. June has started off with awesome sunshine and warmth here in London, so getting out of the office seemed like the right thing to do.
