I have a question about best practices regarding how one should approach storing complex workflow states for processing tasks in a database. I've been looking online to no avail, so I figured I'd ask the community what they thought was best. This question comes out of the same "BoxItem" example I gave in a prior question. This "BoxIte...
Sight is one of the senses a programmer take for granted. Most programmers would spend hours looking at a computer monitor (especially during times when they are in the zone). I know there are blind programmers who can program (such as T.V. Raman who currently works for google). If you were a blind person (or slowly becoming blind), ho...

I'm not completely sure I understand the workflow way of doing things, but if it's a pipeline n filter style model I should be able to pass data (even strings) from one activity to another. Does anyone know how to do this? Bonus points for a video! I hope this is possible. If WF were the same as my idea of it then it would be extremel...
