Window size

have you ever been arguing with your collegues about opening the window or closing one ? well in out opinion the problem is the work itself, we just don't like getting up from the chair and openning or closing the window..

Our High Preformance Development Team has developed a very usefull and handy API for a window size controlling .

You can use it whidely and proudly and shock your bosses and colugues (our boss smiled) by this..

The API is avalible under the Open_source_license.
If there are problems, we will find someone to accuse :)

RomDiff

Anyway, while I was thinking of something, Romi, my colleague fond out that a file a his won't compile. He decided to check the differences of the files.

that is why we invented the RomDiff

Windows Pay - Per Use ? maybe soon

Microsoft has applied a patent of renting an operation system and probably hardware .
Imagine that you have a small cheap computer and suddenly you have an urge to kill, you know ... you just need to kick ass .. what shall you do ?

What I do is - take my Lenovo T61P Super Mega Laptop, run a battlefield and then have a nice time while shooting bad guys , flying helicopters and wasting time, however as I told you have a cheap computer . A problem ? Not anymore!

You can rent an nVidia Video card and a good sound adapter for a hour of two , pay some bucks (two three .. whatever) and when you done using them you just stop paying. Now of course you will not see a Microsoft delivery guy bringing you the hardware, it will be installed in your computer, but deactivated.

Moreover, all the XboxLinux project and the others taught Microsoft a lesson about obfuscating options of the computer hardware, therefore, we shall see more Hackers and security professionals hacking the security infrastructure of this "Device".

Here is a quote from Microsoft's patent application form

A different business model may allow a more granular approach to hardware and software sales. A computer may have individually metered hardware and software components that a user can select and activate based on current need. Beyond simple activation, the user may be able to select a level of performance related to processor, memory, graphics power, etc. that is driven not by a lifetime maximum requirement, but rather by the need of the moment. When the need is browsing, a low level of performance may be used and when network-based interactive gaming is the need of the moment, the highest available performance may be made available to the user.



let the fun begin !

Firefox vs Internet Explorer

Another frustrating difference between the Firefox and Internet Explorer. A simple script in one of my pages selects all of the checkboxes in the page

function ChangeCheckBoxState(id, checkState)
{
var cb = document.getElementById(id);
if (cb != null)
cb.checked = checkState;
}

function ChangeAllCheckBoxStates(sender)
{
var checkState = sender.checked;
// Toggles through all of the checkboxes defined in the CheckBoxIDs array
// and updates their value to the checkState input parameter

alert('1');
if (cbCheckBoxList != null)
{
for (var i = 0; i < cbCheckBoxList.length; i++)
ChangeCheckBoxState(cbCheckBoxList[i], checkState);
}
}

here is a trigger


&lt input type="checkbox" id="cbSelectAll" onchange="ChangeAllCheckBoxStates(this)" &gt


So, here is the issue: while Firefox handles everything well , Internet Explorer needs me to check or uncheck the box and then to click on some other area on the scree

I Hate that , why ? isn't is the meaning of ONCHAGE event ??!@ huh ?

Hightech is in shit

I have been programming for the whole morning .. well not for the whole morning , because I could not stand on my feet in the morning .. We were presenting ourselves at the IGT2008 - The World Summit of Cloud Computing, and my feet were ruined. I will write a post about it as soon as i get the pictures.

Anyway when I went to find myself a sandwich , I was surrounded with sewerage. It looked like a huge buffer overflow with no debugger available and the smell was the same the buffer overflow should have .

They are right, Israeli Hi Tech is in deep shit .
