Disabling the CAPTCHA for a while.

Many of my homies and Scott in particular (as well as myself) have been annoyed by the Captcha ( C ompletely A utomated P ublic T uring test to tell C omputers and H umans A part). It definitely does it's job, but it also has a lot of false negatives and it's pretty much a treat to get a reply to actually...

Dear Apress....

As a loyal customer, I need to ask you for one favor. This is a very petty and immature request on my part, but I have to ask it anyway. Please don't give Tobin any more HardCovers for his books: Working with Tobin is hard enough as it is because he outdoes me at everything, we have essentially a Homer...

My Speech Server is all the way thug

So far, I'm throwing a few ideas around to really make my upcoming code camp presentations good. I just ask myself “What would Casey Chesnut ” do and then I get good ideas. So I was playing around with it, and started putting in Lyrics to Fifty Cent Rhymes as my prompts. You DEFINITELY need...

Why Wait - you can Refactor VB.NET & C# Without waiting for the 2.0 Framework

Seeing lots of buzz about being able to refactor w/ the 2.0 Framework. A while back we created .Net Refactor and honestly, I think it's a great product and very well priced. Give it a try and let me know what you think - for better or for worse (although I'm sure it will be for better).

Pocket PC Blogging

The other day, I added a Feedmap feed and found someone named Darren Swartzendruber right in my area. So I checked out his blog (I found it through Feedmap so I didn't expect that it was tech related) and saw that he was a Pocket PC User user. Anyway, I left some comments on his blog and then I guess...

More on what a-holes RealtyWorld is

So here's a copy of the actual letter they are threatening people with. I actually heard an interesting take on the issue. Say RealtyWorld is going to threaten SomeMVP because the RealtyWorld Symbol bares a small resemblance to the globe SomeMvp got via Microsoft Publisher. If RealtyWorld can in fact...

Improving a CAPTCHA - An idea

Ok, so you have probably already heard about all of the controversy my homey KC caused with his Captcha beater.

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...

house.config

Unfortunately, there is no such thing but I really wish there were. Moving Blows. At least I'm not the only one going through it - but Beth's moving in - I'm just shuffling things around. That got me to thinking - the next time I hear someone start telling me about how lame programming is as a field...

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...

Why isn't Microsoft doing this?

One of the few things I've always excelled at in life is blowing money on frivolous things. Here's the Roku Soundbridge that crushed my will-power. Roku is a company that I never heard of prior to last week and having a wireless media player wasn't something that I had even really considered. Yes, they...

I found this so flattering... even if my prediction has yet to materialize.

Trying the new Google Beta and it was cool. If you put in William Ryan as a search term, not only does it appear, but I'm #3. Then I put in W.G. Ryan and I was the first 5 hits. Sure, that Ryan Homes guy is still ahead of me, but considering the income disparity between us, I figured he'd have a lot...
