Ryan Gallagher, writing for Slate, put two and two together from a lot of no comments. He noted that back in 2007, German police forces said that they couldn't tap into Skype calls because of of its strong encryption and complicated peer-to-peer network connections; in fact, Skype bluntly stated at the time that, due to its encryption and architecture techniques, it couldn't conduct wiretaps. But that may have changed. Gallagher cited a Forbes article that claims the hacker community is talking about recent changes to Skype's architecture and whether they will allow users to be wiretapped. ...

Sometimes I'm timely in getting the news out on useful resources. And, other times, I'm a bit slower on the draw. As I told my friends back at New Year's Day, "As an official member of the Procrastinators Club, welcome to 2008!" On the other hand, it's always good to remind folks of great resources that are still available and on the shelf. Why? Well, the Internet hits us with such a deluge of constantly new material, that we often forget about the old(ish) stuff that's still really useful. Darth...(read more)
Software giant rushes out Security Advisory to warn customers about code for a zero-day vulnerability in SharePoint collaboration server that's making the rounds on the Web.
In the previous article Creating an ASP.NET Dynamic Web Page using a MS SQL Server 2 8 Database GridView Display you learned how to create a dynamic web page that can let the user edit and delete database records directly using a web browser. It was demonstrated with a home renovation project where team leaders can update and delete project tasks online. However it does not include features that let users add or insert new records directly into the database using a web browser. This feature will be covered in this tutorial....

I’ve talked with with many dozens of customers here at TechEd 2010 about Office 2010 and shown them a lot of demos at the kiosk. As they arrive I hand them a www.iheartmacros.com t-shirt (hugely popular, btw). Very often the response is: “This is great. I actually do love macros and VBA”. I’m not surprised.

A bit of a revelation this evening. I discovered something obvious, but missing from my understanding of the brilliant iOS example that ships with the Sync. Framework 4.0CTP
It seems that on the server side if a record is edited, correctly only the fields that are modified gets sent down to your device (in my case an iPad).
I was previously just blindly assuming that I'd get all fields down. I modified my Xcode population code (based on iOS sample) as follows:
+ (void)populateQCItems: (id)dict withMetadata:(id)metadata withContext:(NSManagedObjectContext*) context
{
QCItems *item = (QCItems *)[Utils populateOfflineEntity:dict withMetadata:metadata withContext:context];
if (item != nil) // modify new or existing live item
{
if ([dict valueForKey:@"Identifier"]) // new bit
item.Identifier = [dict valueForKey:@"Identifier"];
if ([dict valueForKey:@"InspectionTypeID"]) // new bit
item.InspectionTypeID = [dict valueForKey:@"InspectionTypeID"];
[item logEntity];
}
}
I hope this helps someone else; as I learnt this the hard way.

I got have two Lifecam VX-2000's and they don't work in cheese anymore.

The RSA Conference 2010 got off to quite a start, with the software giant raising the question of whether or not malware-infected PCs should be banned from the internet.
Investigating the market for a new software product can be a daunting task. Sometimes it’s difficult to even uncover all of the players. There’s no shortage of rhetoric on each vendor’s web site, but how can today’s CTO get objective information about how a software package ranks against it’s peers in a given space? Every year, Gartner releases what they call a Magic Quadrant report evaluating various products in a given space.
This past week, Gartner released their analysis of products in the Application Lifecycle Management (ALM) arena. It is very exciting to see us in the top spot as a thought leader and for our ability to execute. If you are interested in ALM, you can read through an entire reprint of the report here. There’s plenty of new competitors listed and some of the existing competitors have shifted quite a bit.
And this comes prior to the release of Team Foundation Server 2012! I suppose with all of the new features in 2012, they could just add another square to the upper-right. It’s beyond awesome! It’s be-awesome!
Office Communications Server, which provides integrated voice, conferencing, IM, and telephony, is one of those products that are difficult to explain in simple terms. It takes a brave man to take on the task, and to provide a simple guide to installing it: Luckily for us, Johan is that man. In the first of a series, he explains what it is, how it benefits your enterprise, and how to make it happen.
