In this blog entry, Angsuman Chakraborty, a self-declared ORM-free developer, describes the "framework" solution that he claims puts him at his most productive. Chakraborty believes that ORM frameworks "have a steep learning curve and tend to shoe horn your architecture into their model." As a SQL-happy developer, he uses just two facilities over JDBC.
In his blog, long time active member of the TSS community Cameron Purdy has given himself the Brain Dead Code award. However there seems to be a conflict of interest here as Cameron Purdy wrote the code, tested the code and now sometime later has discovered the defect in the code.

If you're going to be in Finland you may want to sign up for a Coding Dojo. The weekly session is based on Dave Thomas' idea of Code Kata. In the three hour session, up to fifteen developers take turns solving some small programming problem.
In his blog, Bruce Snyder reviews Programming Without a Call Stack – Event-driven Architectures by Gregor Hohpe. Gregor is a co-author of Enterprise Integration Patterns which is support by a website to which the document was linked. What Bruce likes about the article is that it really explains the differences between the two models.
