ShortGuid - A shorter and url friendly GUID class in C#

Using the ShortGuid
The ShortGuid is compatible with normal Guid's and other ShortGuid strings. Let's see an example:

Guid guid = Guid.NewGuid();

ShortGuid sguid1 = guid; // implicitly cast the guid as a shortguid

Console.WriteLine( sguid1 );

Console.WriteLine( sguid1.Guid );

This produces a new guid, uses that guid to create a ShortGuid, and displays the two equivalent values in the console. Results would be something along the lines of:

FEx1sZbSD0ugmgMAF_RGHw
b1754c14-d296-4b0f-a09a-030017f4461f

Or you can implicitly cast a string to a ShortGuid as well.

string code = "Xy0MVKupFES9NpmZ9TiHcw";

ShortGuid sguid2 = code; // implicitly cast the string as a shortguid

Console.WriteLine( sguid2 );

Console.WriteLine( sguid2.Guid );

Which produces the following:

Xy0MVKupFES9NpmZ9TiHcw
540c2d5f-a9ab-4414-bd36-9999f5388773

Understanding Top line and Bottom line?

Understanding Top line and Bottom line? Top line – It’s the revenues generated by a company or what you might call the gross sales. When people talk about the company’s “topline growth”, they refer to an increase in its gross sales or revenues. When companies speak about the need to increase their topline, they are discussing about the need to focus on generating/increasing sales. This is money that is coming in before any expenses are deducted. Bottom line – The bottom line is the income that is left after all expenses have been deducted. You might also call this the company’s net profit. Some of the expenses that are usually being deducted are things like loan repayments, loan interests, administrative costs, taxes and even salary to employees. So there could be a big difference between the Top line revenues and the Bottom line revenues. A company’s bottomline can also be referred to as net earnings. Bottomline usually shows the efficiency of the company in controlling ...

Scrum Master vs Product Owner

The most common confusion in the 2 roles of Agile-SCRUM is between Scrum Master & Product Owner. The Scrum Master is in charge of making sure the Scrum process is followed. The Product Owner (PO) is the person in charge of making sure the product succeeds in the direction the company wants to go. The PO does this by setting priorities of product backlog items, making sure all needed parties are there for both the sprint planning and sprint review (both are very important). If something occurs and either the scope explodes or decisions need to be made, the PO is the person who gives the answers to the decisions. Product owner act as the feature prioritize(r) and main point of contact between business/customer and IT team. If product not succeed and probably reason is prioritization issue then product owner may be "single wringable neck" person. The Scrum Master is making sure the process gets followed and working through the adaptation of Scrum to your organization. By do...
