There are many phone scams where someone will ring you claiming to be from Microsoft, Dell, Apple, or some other known IT company.They will tell you that they have detected issues with your computer, normally “security” issues.They will often ask you to open the “Event Viewer” on your computer to show you the errors.They will then ask you to go...

I'm taking a couple of computer security related courses on Coursera . For those of you who are not familiar with Coursera, it's an online program that offers classes that anyone can take for free. The classes consist of video lectures along with quizzes and problems sets and sometimes supplementary reading material.

Hi folks,Done something cool today, at least for me it's cool as its very handy. I desided to share it here as I don't come accross much info on these when I was looking for it myself. So here I go. The below bash script runs as a system service at start up on Ubuntu and all it does is start a background process with a easy to lookup process id (pid) an...
Welcome to my first blog entry! We read the HTML5 vs ADOBE FLASH:
I readed entries from other tecnology sites.
1. "Security Guard" (Security)
HTML5: Security is good i think, are you think so?
FLASH: There are many security opens. (Sorry for bad english.)
HTML5 won! +1 points. *ding ding ding*

So where have I been? Well I have been at university doing university things like drinking, partying, going to my classes, learning new things in relation to programming, working on robots for the university team projects, lots of things.
I originally planned to only be away for two weeks, I thought how busy I was would stop after a few weeks, but no I'm...

The job scheduler is coming up, but still hampered by performance issues. However, majority of the functionality is working and should be put to use with some simple tasks this week. The objective is not to replace the crontab, because we must have at least one task running on cron every minute, that is the job scheduler itself. The actual scheduled tasks...

The requirement could not have been any clear "I want a native PHP application that does something similar to Obsidian Job Scheduler" (Guess you're not signing my leave form boss?). This was a new and direct requirement we got earlier this year. Scheduled jobs in PHP were being performed via cronjobs which perform http calls. No problem here, unless you w...

assembly, ti-99/4a, old computers
As part of my series on learning assembly for my old 80’s era computer, I’ve been developing a call stack, since the hardware doesn’t have one built-in. Today, we’re going to talk about what a calling convention is, and design one for the TI-99/4A.
Typically, a compiler targeting a particular architecture will have a calling convention defined, that is,...

Me and my friend are working on something quite interesting, a program that optimizes designs of various machines: vehicles, drones, ground robots, etc.
The idea is to use a physics framework in order to evaluate how well-suited a machine is to some goal, on some terrain.

I've never posted an introduction, and came a little late in the picture for a staff interview thread. I thought I'd remove a shroud and be a little more level with the kind folks and community I've disappeared from recently.

Here it is ! Arduino project 04 , titled "Color Mixing LAMP". By using a tri-color LED and three photo-resistors I created a LED that smoothly changes colors depending on external lighting conditions.
The components of this project included:
A RGB LED
220 ohm resistor (3)
10 kilohm resistor(3)
photo-resistor(3)
GEL color filter(3, RGB)

I think the time has come for me to start stepping away from codecall. Although I truly enjoy helping people that put in the effort to help themselves, that paradigm has seemed to be lost in the younger developers of the forum.

One of the biggest challenges for web developers is fighting with internet explorer in every way or form, to get to the point it's awful slow, ** and 10 years behind everything else, still we got to support it considering it is the default browser on most PCs.

Hello everyone.
I just discovered something while trying to debug one of my assembly language programs. This is probably not new information for some people, but perhaps someone might find this useful to know.
The thing is: dividing by 0 is not the only way to raise an exception while executing the DIV instruction; dividing by 1 is just about as bad.

Overview Last year I finished up a quiz game in Flash and released it around a few gaming websites. After seeing what went well, and what didn't, I thought I'd write up a few things about it that may not be obvious right away.
First of all, here's the game itself: Were You a Nineties Gamer?
The Nineties were full of awesome games, and my game was...
