Our buggy moral code

REST VS SOAP

REST is very easy to understand and is extremely approachable, but does lack standards and is considered an architectural approach. In comparison, SOAP is an industry standard with a well-defined protocol and a set of well-established rules to be implemented, and it has been used in systems both big and small.

what to do if other .NET Framework setup troubleshooting steps do not help

1. Go to the Add/Remove Programs control panel and attempt to repair the version of the .NET Framework that is causing problems on the system

2. If a repair does not help, then go to the Add/Remove Programs control panel and attempt to uninstall the version of the .NET Framework that is causing problems on the system

3. If you are attempting to uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0 and it fails, download and run the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Registration Correction Tool (also named clwireg.zip and described in more detail in this blog post), and then try to uninstall the .NET Framework 2.0 again. If you are encountering errors uninstalling a version of the .NET Framework other than 2.0, you can skip this step because this tool only works for the .NET Framework 2.0.

4. If uninstall still fails from Add/Remove Programs, download the .NET Framework cleanup tool and choose to remove the version of the .NET Framework that is causing problems on your system

Download and install the version of the .NET Framework that you cleaned up in step 2 or 3. Here are some download links for various versions of the .NET Framework:

.NET Framework 1.0
.NET Framework 1.1
.NET Framework 2.0
.NET Framework 2.0 with SP1
.NET Framework 2.0 with SP2
.NET Framework 3.0
.NET Framework 3.0 with SP1
.NET Framework 3.5
.NET Framework 3.5 with SP1
.NET Framework 4

Download Android applications on your PC directly from the Android Market

via Android and Me by Nick Gray on 2/24/12

If you've always wanted a way to download an application from the Android Market directly to your PC, boy do we have the right thing for you. An Android developer by the name of redphx sent us an email today, introducing us to APK Downloader. It's a Chrome extension which allows users to download application APK files directly from the Android Market to their desktop.

In order to use the APK Downloader extension, you'll need the latest version of Chrome on your computer. Then you will need to disable the browser's SSL error warnings, enter your device ID number, email and password. Your email and password are stored locally on your computer and are only used when the Chrome extension tries to grab the Android Market cookie to download the APK file from the Android Market. Once your setup is complete, simply browse the Android Market with your Chrome browser on your PC, find an app you would like to download, and click the APK Downloader icon which appears in the address bar when you are on the application page.

At first, we couldn't think of any real reason to use APK Downloader, but then we realized that there are plenty of Kindle Fire users who do not have access to many of the applications that are only available on the Android Market, plus there are many apps which are made available only for specific devices. Come on, do developers really think that all those Tegra games can not be played on devices with Qualcomm chips?

I don't think the APK Downloader extension for Chrome is going to change anybody's life, but it will be handy tool for those of you who have devices with limited access to the Android Market and simply want to enjoy their applications on as many device as possible.

Give APK Downloader extension a try and let us know what you think.

Why programmers work at night

"Working on large abstract systems involves fitting the whole thing into your mind – somebody once likened this to constructing a house out of expensive crystal glassand as soon as someone distracts you, it all comes barreling down and shatters into a thousand pieces.

This is why programmers are so annoyed when you distract them."

Inside DreamHack, the 12,000-computer LAN party - Slideshow | ExtremeTech: "Last weekend, over 12,000 LAN party goers turned up at DreamHack Winter 2011 in Jonkoping, Sweden with a PC under the arm, on their back, or packed carefully in the trunk of their car. Every single attendee is squeezed into just three massive halls — the largest holding 5,000 computers — for four days, only taking brief breaks to sleep or check out one of the many stages (including some of the largest e-sport tournaments of the year)."

BBC News - Changes to the world's time scale debated

BBC News - Changes to the world's time scale debated: "This week, scientists at the Royal Society are discussing whether we need to come up with a new definition of the world's time scale: Coordinated Universal Time (UTC).

And the main issue up for debate is the leap second - and whether we should abolish it.

The leap second came into existence in 1972. It is added to keep the time-scale based on atomic clocks in phase with the time-scale that is based on the Earth's rotation."
