Today just a quick post about language design.
SecretGeek pointed me to this article: Create Mixins with Interfaces and Extension Methods and I really liked the idea. This reminded me of Haskell's type classes, where you can implement part of the interface based on the other part. Later, you don't have to implement the whole interface, the "default" part gets implemented automatically.
Generally, I'm fond of the idea of traits/mixins, this would be useful in quite a number of situations, especially when you'd like to share some functionality across different class hierarchies. Here's a popular link to the research about traits: Traits — Composable Units of Behavior
Update: I found more interesting links about this:
