I downloaded the setups from the links, and used the "Extract" option in the installers. It appears that only the license was changed: http://pastebin.com/G3H78tSt Edit: However, the installer binaries' sizes differ by 113280 bytes, while

Lithuania here - 25 pounds/month gives me unrestricted 100 Mbps, next month they're tripling all speeds for no additional costs. The one-step-cheaper option is 90% of the cost for only 10% of the speed, so I opted for this one instead.

If web page "has nothing except JavaScript" (e.g. GMail) is probably is web app and indexing it makes little sense anyway. What about JS frameworks like JavascriptMVC or Sammy [1]? Google even created a spec [2] for crawling such sites. [

The decompilation quality really depends on how obfuscated the original code was, and how much time you care to invest. For example, I'm using Hex-Rays to decompile Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2 and extend it, and now its output looks

Thanks for the ideas. However, in this case the DLL relies on MSVC for binary compatibility with its host, and the version control server is a *nix box.

Compilation output does not belong in source control I've seen this before, but never found a suitable alternative. Where does it belong? Suppose multiple developers are compiling a C++ .dll which testers are grabbing through websvn and t

Were those recurring meetings or one-offs? Part of a product I'm working on now is being able to schedule repeating tasks every day, every month, etc. Which means that "07:30 every Friday" has to happen at 07:30 in the author's timezone, wh

Google Gears still works on Firefox 3.x and IE 8, and can be used to emulate WebSQL. It doesn't support async queries, but it's still a good alternative.

Well noticed! I wasn't able to look at the images earlier (at work), but at least this image http://bankofamericasuck.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/boa1... is interesting - the email is timed March 11, but it's in the January folder. Wor

Draft post was written back in January, probably, and the files in /03 were only added recently. Wordpress can split uploaded files into this folder structure automatically based on upload time.

I don't think you're doing this right. The first .then receives a function, but the second .then executes function.apply at construction time and receives only its result (null) as the callback. Also, after understanding what's going on, ex

It's not just Apache you need to configure - PHP ignores Apache's directory access configurations entirely, you need open_basedir and preferably something like suPHP. Disabling shell functions (system, exec, etc.) is also a good idea, unles

Sure you can, but why would you want to? Reinventing the wheel is not fun. A colleague pointed me to Yii Framework [1] a couple years ago, and I stopped looking for alternatives. Don't see any reason to invent my own frameworks, since Yii h

Thanks for the link! You were correct, the quality is noticeably better: https://github.com/Laurelai/decompile-dump/blob/master/outpu... vs http://img715.imageshack.us/img715/1051/hexraysstx.png

I've seen HexRays do the same thing - most of the time you need to actually tell it that a variable is a pointer before it tries to do that. Stating the function type explicitly also helps it display the right arguments given to it. This ou

This looks like the output of HexRays [1], which is the best C decompiler I've seen. Defining some structures and typing the variables would make it a lot more readable in some cases. I've used HexRays to make sense of C++ games several tim

In x86 assembly (and a lot of other contexts), 16 bits are called a word (a left over from 16 bit days when 16 bits were in fact a machine word), and larger data types are named dword (double word, 32 bits), qword (quad word, 64 bits)

Nowadays MSVC supports the /hotpatch command line option, which inserts fillers like "mov edx, edx" or "lea edi, [edi]" at the start of each function for the same purpose.
