Google Chrome, my default browser

June 20, 2010 in Uncategorized by dewa.i | 102 views | 1 comment

I’ve been using Google Chrome as my default browser for last two months, before, it was my second browser after Firefox 3.
After searching and testing many Chrome extensions, now I think I have good set of extensions that make my browsing experience better than before.

One of the most annoying thing in Google Chrome is it doesn’t have Page Setup until the latest version 6.0.437.3, but there are extensions to workaround that, I will cover extensions that I use in my next post.
For now, in the spirit of FIFA World Cup 2010, there’s one good extensions FIFA.com Extensions that will give you information about this event, and will pop up lively about the ongoing match.

Today is such a bad monday

May 17, 2010 in Uncategorized by dewa.i | 170 views | 2 comments

Walaupun sebenarnya saya tidak memiliki preferensi khusus mengenai hari, semua hari adalah baik dan juga penuh tantangan, kadang-kadang menyebalkan :)

Seperti pagi ini, berangkat dari rumah dengan suasana hati yang enak, tapi apa daya terjadi hal-hal menyebalkan: baru beberapa blok dari rumah, ada masalah dengan mobil box Aqua (ini betul-betul merk airnya) yang “parkir” di tengah jalan dan menurunkan muatan sehingga sepeda motor pun tidak bisa lewat, setelah “bertukar pendapat” akhirnya masalah selesai, namun beberapa menit terbuang dan cukup banyak energi terbuang…

Beberapa lama kemudian, ada pengalihan lalulintas karena ada suatu kegiatan, dan kendaraan diarahkan ke jalan kecil yang belum saya kenal. Dan banyak menit lagi terbuang…

Run on Linux Run on Windows

This is a really simple subnet calculator, as mentioned in previous post, by feeding an IP Address in CIDR notation, it will calculate and show the result of Network ID, Subnet Mask, IP Broadcast, and Pool IP Pool.

This tool was created for Agung Purbayana to help in calculate those values that needed to setup IP Star Satellite Internet.
subnetCalc was coded in REAL Studio and available for Windows and Linux (tested on Ubuntu)

My ping.fm got spammed via API

May 3, 2010 in Uncategorized by dewa.i | 150 views | 2 comments

I installed CR Post2Pingfm, a WP plugin, which use ping.fm API to update whatever you set in ping.fm about your last blog.

At first I thought it’s a perfect one, just from my WP I was able to update Facebook, Twitter, etc. I would deactivate other plugins with same/sub functions to reduce the number of my WP plugins, well, until some hours ago…

I got spammer updates my status on Facebook, Twitter, and some messengers’ .
The spams just nonsense stream of words, currently, but what if those spams hurt people, people with power, and then found out were sent using my ping.fm account… the rest can be predicted.

I check my account at ping.fm and found those updates were sent via API, and I only have one application use my ping.fm API

So, I reset my ping.fm API, remove that WP plugin, and hope no more spams…

Simple Subnet Calculator

May 2, 2010 in Programming by dewa.i | 227 views | 2 comments

A friend of mine asked me to create a simple subnet calculator (IPv4, class C only), to function as below:

For example, given the value in CIDR notation, eg: 192.168.1.17/25

And will result:

  • Network ID
  • Netmask
  • IP Broadcast
  • IP Pool

So, I think it’s an opportunity to try those cross platform development tools.
I have a plan to create simple application that run on Windows and Linux. And will code it in PureBasic, Lazarus, RunRev, and REALbasic.

For REALbasic, since I don’t have a license, I already downloaded the trial version of REAL Studio Professional Edition, and it can build a trial version standalone executable that will exit after running 5 minutes.

Is it spam ? Like a human post

April 27, 2010 in Uncategorized by dewa.i | 145 views | 2 comments

It seems that spammers nowadays are getting smarter, at least spammer that spam my blog in comment area, in this particular post. I kept some spams there, to show how they look.

The spammer, copied existing comment(s) and filled required fields correctly: Name, Email, and Website (this is the most important for them), and use a copied body of existing comment randomly and Submit Comment.

Since those spams look like “normal” comments Akismet just pass them for approval which I got many.

Cross platform programming tools

April 26, 2010 in Programming by dewa.i | 197 views | 4 comments

The goal is coding once and able to launch it in many platform, in Windows and Linux at least, and maybe Apple, Web, and Mobile devices.
By coding once, not necessarily using the very same unmodified code, but at least in one programming language and little modification.
Then, to do this there always be Java . And C.

I want the others, especially the one with good IDE and Visual Form Designer so can do RAD in a degree and support at least Windows and Linux (and flexible license)

There are many tools out there, but below only some that I have downloaded and tried, not in particular order:

  • Qt, now has LGPL/Commercial License since Nokia’s take over. Previously only GPL and Commercial and an expensive one.
    It is in C with (likely) complete libraries, run on Windows, Linux, Apple, and Mobile (well Nokia is huge on this)
    Learning curve is steep for me, but I will follow this :)
  • Lazarus/FPC, license is mostly LGPL, IDE is GPL though, but in short we can write commercial softwares and commercial components.
    It seems stable and can be used for production (with caution), run on Windows, Linux, Apple, and WinCE (find at Daily Snapshot), and created CGI for web
    Here are some tools coded in Lazarus: PeaZip an Open source file and archive manager, software from Binerus
  • FreeBASIC, open source, FREE license able to do commercial software, run on Windows, Linux
    FreeBASIC is syntax compatible with old BASIC like GWBASIC, QuickBASIC

and for tools that are Not Free, but with affordable price:

  • PureBasic, for Eur 79 you will get a lifetime upgrade, licenses for four platform PureBasic can support: Windows, Linux, Apple OSX, AmigaOS, see the FAQ
    And there is a beautiful forum of PureBasic, and you won’t regret to buy a copy!
  • KBasic, to be able to create commercial softwares, we need to buy license(s) Eur 24.95 for each platform and KBasic can run on Windows, Linux, Apple OSX.
    KBasic utilize Qt library, since Qt now is LGPL then we don’t have to buy a license for Qt
  • RunRev, a RAD and able to run on Windows, Linux, Apple OSX, Web (like Flash), and Mobile.
    Enterprise edition priced at GBP 299 with 90 days upgrade, and then another annual upgrade fee and you will get a new version too if you are still in the range.
    revMedia edition is free, able to create Web application (without database support I think), worth to check !

That said, I am still browsing Internet to find another interesting cross platform development tools :)
