In .net, is there a way to convert DateTime to past tense easily (built in function or 3rd party library): eg. 4 mins ago
Something similiar to how the date is on Stackoverflow.
I'm the 500th person today to think I'm original by posting a joke on StackOverflow. LAUGH AT ME! Did you forget it's April Fools day? I got you, didn't I?
This account is a dummy one, so moderators/admins please ban my real account.
Thank you for reading.
(LOL APRIL FOOL)
Similar to this question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1251416/png-transparency-problems-in-ie8
But the answer here was to remove opacity - but I can't remove opacity. How can it be made to work with opacity?
I followed the answer to this question http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1245364/securing-elmah-in-asp-net-website to restrict access to the elmah handler. However, it seems that adding an RSS feed to Outlook for the URL elmah.axd/rss or elmah.axd/digestrss bypasses the authentication. What's the point of securing the handler if someone can guess the RSS URL and subscribe to a feed of the error log?
I have seen comments stating that Subsonic currently does nt support MS SQL Server CE (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1130863/subsonic-and-ms-sql-server-compact-data-provider). The link provided is for Subsonic 3.
So my question is, does Subsonic 2.2 support MS SQL Server CE? And if so, is there any documentation on how to use sonic.exe to generate Subsonic's classes and controllers from the database file?
for example when i open stackoverflow.com for the first time, it pulls

Is there a way for me to get this list of js that are downloaded?
I've finished my poker game but now I want to make it look a bit better with displaying Spades, Hearts, Diamonds and Clubs. I tried this answer: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2094366/c-printing-ascii-heart-and-diamonds-with-platform-independent
But I couldn't make it work. I'm running on Windows.
Please explain me in simple terms (if possible simple example) the covariance and contravariance in c# .net .
I know many are available(even in stackoverflow) but my problem is in which scenario I should use that is not explained in the articles that I am refering to.

Hi,
Can anyone recommend a great CodeIgniter Registration/Login/Logout library for beginners to web development?
I read on stackoverflow that Redux was highly recommended at one time. What is the current recommendation?
Using this:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/820421/can-i-use-facebooks-fbfriend-selector-in-an-iframe
I created a multi-friend selector in my IFRAME FB application.
I want to know if the user selected any users for invite so I can reward him with extra points. In the developer WIKI I saw that [ids] is transferred to requested page via POST. But how I can capture the values if I'm using JS/.NET? (Preferably through .NET so I can easily save values in the DB).
After many hours, I have discovered that the given udp server needs the following steps for a successful communication:
1- Send "Start Message" on a given port
2- Wait to receive from server on any port
3- Then the port dedicated to you to send further data to the server equals the port you have received on it + 1
So I am asking if this kind is a known protocol/handshaking, or it is only special to this server??
PS: All above communication were in udp sockets in C#
PS: Related to a previous question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2757868/about-c-udp-sockets

Hello,
I'm researching which linux distro would be the best for a software development environment. The technology stack we are using includes Grails/Groovy, Java, JBoss, Git, Eclipse, Oracle. Any thoughts from the stackoverflow mind share?

Hey,
I have an input text :
<input name="Email" type="text" id="Email" value="[email protected]" />
I want to put a default value like "What's your programming question ? be specific." in StackOverFlow, and when the user click on it the default value disapear.
My question is very similar to these two:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1140984/c-component-events
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1638372/c-writing-a-com-server-events-not-firing-on-client
However, what worked for them is not working for me. The type library file, does not have any hints of events definitions, so Delphi doesn't see it. The class works fine for other C# applications, as you would expect.
COM Server tools:
Visual Studio 2010
.NET 4.0
Delphi applications:
Delphi 2010
Delphi 7
Here's a simplified version of the code:
/// <summary>
/// Call has arrived delegate.
/// </summary>
[ComVisible(false)]
public delegate void CallArrived(object sender, string callData);
/// <summary>
/// Interface to expose SimpleAgent events to COM
/// </summary>
[ComVisible(true)]
[GuidAttribute("1FFBFF09-3AF0-4F06-998D-7F4B6CB978DD")]
[InterfaceType(ComInterfaceType.InterfaceIsIDispatch)]
public interface IAgentEvents
{
///<summary>
/// Handles incoming calls from the predictive manager.
///</summary>
///<param name="sender">The class that initiated this event</param>
///<param name="callData">The data associated with the incoming call.</param>
[DispId(1)]
void OnCallArrived(object sender, string callData);
}
/// <summary>
/// Represents the agent side of the system. This is usually related to UI interactions.
/// </summary>
[ComVisible(true)]
[GuidAttribute("EF00685F-1C14-4D05-9EFA-538B3137D86C")]
[ClassInterface(ClassInterfaceType.None)]
[ComSourceInterfaces(typeof(IAgentEvents))]
public class SimpleAgent
{
/// <summary>
/// Occurs when a call arrives.
/// </summary>
public event CallArrived OnCallArrived;
public SimpleAgent() {}
public string AgentName { get; set; }
public string CurrentPhoneNumber { get; set; }
public void FireOffCall()
{
if (OnCallArrived != null)
{
OnCallArrived(this, "555-123-4567");
}
}
}
The type library file has the definitions for the properties and methods, but no events are visible. I even opened the type library in Delphi's viewer to make sure. The Delphi app can see and use any property, methods, and functions just fine. It just doesn't see the events.
I would appreciate any pointers or articles to read.
Thanks!
I was looking at this post, and it is close to what I need:
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1669165/php-how-to-count-60-days-from-the-add-date
However, in that post, the calculation is performed by adding 60 days to the current date. What I need to do is calculate the date based on a variable date (and not the current date).
Something like this:
$my_date = $some_row_from_a_database;
$date_plus_10_days = ???;
Anyone know how to do that?
Thanks
I would make to make a small WYSIWYG editor similar to the one used by StackOverflow. Basically, it would have buttons like [quote], and when that button is clicked, [quote] [/quote] should be inserted in the textarea where the cursor is or at the end of all other text. If the [quote][/quote] could be highlighted in some way that would be even more excellent, but its not required.
Is there any WYSIWYG editor already available where you can add custom buttons, with custom text being added to the textbox as a result?
How can I check if an anonymous object that was created as such:
var myObj = {
prop1: 'no',
prop2: function () { return false; }
}
does indeed have a prop2 defined?
prop2 will always be defined as a function, but for some objects it is not required and will not be defined.
I tried what was suggested here: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/595766/how-to-determine-if-native-javascript-object-has-a-property-method but I don't think it works for anonymous objects .
Say I need to make searching for related titles just like stackoverflow does before you add your question or digg.com before submitting news.
I didn't find a way how to do this with Zend Lucene. There are setSlop method for queries, but as I understand, it doesn't help.
Is there any way to do this kind of searches?
Hi, whenever I add a new domain into my new Plesk control panel on my dedicated server it creates a whole bunch of test files in the cgi-bin, httpdocs and httpsdocs.
There must be some setting somewhere where I can tell Plesk not to do this?
I've done a good Google search but must now turn to the StackOverflow masses :)
Yours,

Hi,
I am new to Cocoa, but managed to get a connection (to a FTP) up and running, and I've set up an eventhandler for the NSInputStream iStream to alert every response (which also works).
What I manage to get is simply the hello message and a connection timeout 60 sec, closing control connection.
After searching stackoverflow and finding a lot of NSOutputStream write problems (e.g. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/703729/how-to-use-nsoutputstreams-write-message) and a lot of confusion in my google hits, I figured I'd try to ask my own question:
I've tried reading the developer.apple.com doc on OutputStream, but it seems almost impossible for me to send some data (in this case just a string) to the "connection" via the NSOutputStream oStream.
- (IBAction) send_something: sender
{
const char *send_command_char = [@"USER foo" UTF8String];
send_command_buffer = [NSMutableData dataWithBytes:send_command_char length:strlen(send_command_char) + 1];
uint8_t *readBytes = (uint8_t *)[send_command_buffer mutableBytes];
NSInteger byteIndex = 0;
readBytes += byteIndex;
int data_len = [send_command_buffer length];
unsigned int len = ((data_len - byteIndex >= 1024) ?
1024 : (data_len-byteIndex));
uint8_t buf[len];
(void)memcpy(buf, readBytes, len);
len = [oStream write:(const uint8_t *)buf maxLength:len];
byteIndex += len;
}
the above seems not to result in any useable events. typing it under NSStreamEventHasSpaceAvailable sometimes give a response if I spam the ftp by keep creating new connection instances and keep sending some command whenever oStream has free space. In other words, nothing "right" and so I'm still unclear how to properly send a command to the connection. Should I open - write - close every time i want to write to oStream (and thus to the ftp) and can I then expect a reply (hasBytesAvailable event on iStream)?
For some reason I find it very difficult to find any clear tutorials on this matter. Seems like there are more than a few in the same position as me: unclear how to use oStream write?
Any little bit that can help clear this up is greatly appreciated!
If needed I can write the rest of the code.

Possibly the inverse of this question: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2519673/
I called Kill() on a process and it seems to have exited. But when I test HasExited, I get false:
myProcess.Kill();
while ( !myProcess.HasExited )
{
Thread.Sleep(1000);
}
And this continues indefinitely. Granted, I have to change this code to stop waiting eventually, but I'm curious as to why HasExited still returns false when the process seems to have dropped off the map so to speak.
Also can you please answer this question?

I'd like to quickly create a large file on a windows system. By large I'm thinking 5GB. The content doesn't matter. A built in command or short batch file would be preferable, but I'll accept an application if there are no other easy ways.
