Getting Props for .NET Refactor

My friends and former co-workers/boss and I created .NET Refactor to help us refactor some of our code and it turned into a pretty cool product pretty fast. Les is the man when it comes to writing Visual Studio .NET Add-Ins and Brian is the man that never met something that couldn't be parsed. Well,...

Code Camp

I'll be speaking at two different code camps in the near future - the one in Atlanta and the one in Charlotte. Code camp is really cool even though they let people like me talk there - they have to allow the token dork make a speech. If you aren't familiar with Code Camp , check this out because it's...

Unable to Start Debugging in ASP.NET Applications.

Well, it's happened to my on a few machines so I figured I'd mention it. You're going along, your ASP.NET apps are working fine other than the bugs you've coded in them, and then you reboot one day and poof - as soon as you try to compile you get a “Unable to start Debugging” error message...

Ok, so you have probably already heard about all of the controversy my homey KC caused with his Captcha beater. He posted his suggestions on how to make Captcha stronge, which are provided below: render the characters with different colors make some characters darker than the background, and some lighter...

http://www.everythingado.net

Well, I finally bit the bullet and purchased my site from Brinkster. I'm going to be hosting blogs for a few of my disaffected DNJ friends - but well, due to the nature of the site - I'm not handing them out to everyone - If I know you, or you can convince me your not a dork, or if you're a dork and...

Cutting and Pasting Rectangles in Visual Stuido .NET

This is one of many gems in Mihn's killer book Visual Studio .NET Tips and Tricks. But today was a prime example of how cool this is. I had a whole slew of variables that were marked as Private but needed to be marked as protected instead. Also, I had to change all of the corresponding methods that referenced...

Linked List Benchmarking..

Hardly the most scientific based analysis - but it makes the point: I've just started getting back into the 2.0 Framework and came across my old friend the linked list. The linked list was one of those data structures that was actually fun to program in C++, mainly because it was really cool and hyper...

Intelligent Blog Spam

Just saw Sahil's from Sahil. Well, I've uncovered something really interesting. It seems that the Spammers are using other posts, for instance on ADO.NET 2.0 - posting stuff that's related enough that it doesn't set off the stink detector - but posting BuyPhentramineNow in their names. I noticed that...

Newsgroup Cowboys

Originally, I was going to title this Newsgroup a-holes. But I decided to sound a little more European and opt for Cowboy instead. What is a Newsgroup Cowboy you ask? Well, it's someone who runs their mouth first, and then thinks about it later. Here are some great examples: Q: I'm getting connection...

"It works on my machine" - Please Comment!

Ok, a friend of mine has had a lot of bad experiences with developers. When we first became friends, it was because she couldn't believe that I was a programmer and not a total a33hole. The first company she worked at she worked in support and their software left something to be desired. But there was...

If you don't know who Neil is - he's the English guy with the 300 IQ that is one of the founders of OpennetCf.org Not only does he always have some brilliant ideas code wise - but his rants are priceless. Somehow I missed THIS BRILLIANT RANT which he wrote a few weeks ago - but it needs to be read. Trust...

S.P.O.T. Choked

BTW, I'll be posting pics of everything tomorrow- but the S.P.O.T. watched Choked in Atlanta (and yes, there's service coverage there). Every time I tried checking traffic or news, I got the trying to acquire data message which took about 6 hours to go away (and yes, I know how to restart the watch)...
