Reloop has posted the below for DJ controlers (like Contour IE, Jockey 3 ME and Digital Jockey 2 ME), but it also applies to their mixers, for instance my Reloop RMX-40 USB – Reloop (but not limited to Reloop audio equipment) in combination with either of my:
All these machines have USB 3.0 ports. But the workarounds below work:

It’s obvious if you have seen this once, but it wasn’t clear to me how to play only individual songs from a playlist. Luckily my search got this step by step guide as the first hit:
- Create the playlist.
- Uncheck all of the check boxes in the playlist (In iTunes for Windows, ctrl click one of the check marks to uncheck all of the checkboxes at once)
- Now double click (or select and press spacebar) a song to play it. It will stop when finished because there is no other song checked to be played next.
- If you want to change back to normal sequential play, ctrl click one of the check marks again to change all of the checkboxes back to the checked status.
The tip works for both Mac and Windows.
I needed this as part of a pub-quiz so I could finish the questions and answers before moving on to the next track in the playlist.
Thanks hiker1251!

Not sure yet why, but every now and then I get a failure like this in Visual Studio (at least in 2013 and up):
2>C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\12.0\bin\Microsoft.Common.CurrentVersion.targets(4548,5): error MSB3073: The command "copy /Y "C:\SomePath\SomeProjectName\bin\Debug\SomeProjectName.dll" "C:\SomePath\Shared Assemblies\"" exited with code 1.
2>Done executing task "Exec" -- FAILED.
Most of the times it is me at fault: some process still is using it.
But sometimes, it is devenv.exe (Visual Studio itself) that keeps it locked, even though nothing is running (in fact it can happen right after you loaded the project in Visual Studio 2013).
I found this out by using “Process Explorer Search” (Ctrl+F or Find Handle or DLL).
Not sure why yet.

Just while I was watching a nice DEFCON video about security
I came across these two links:
It really looks like too many companies are not genuinely interested in your security.

As Delphi allows to forward declare both classes and interfaces, people often wonder about records.
The short answer: you can’t forward declare record types.
The long answer: you can’t directly, but you can indirectly either reference based (through pointers or callbacks with const parameters) or operator based (through operator overloading).
I think the reason forward declaration of classes and interfaces is possible because they both are reference types, so referring does not impose copying.
Anyway, the trick is this:
You can’t have forward declarations for record types. Define both Implicit operators in the second type

This indeed works very well:
All console output is shown in the build log.
So when you need more context on tests that succeed, you can just output them on the Console.
A practical use: testing the sending of SMS messages over HTTPS where the intermediate proxy can change and was giving different effects.
Logging the actual proxy used correlated some run-time findings. Based on that we could write better tests.

If for instance your Boxee gets old or breaks down, you can use a Raspberry Pi as a replacement with Kodi as media player.
This combination will understand the Video+USB over HDMI which most TV supports officially named HDMI-CEC , but most vendors “invented” their own names (see list below).
The core is the kodi support for CEC.
Basically it comes down to using three cables going to the Pi: Power from TV (or some other source), HDMI to TV, and wired Ethernet. And a distribution for RaspberryPi containing kodi will work, for instance from OpenELEC Mediacenter – Download: Raspberry Pi Builds
Chad MILLER has more details on how to get this to work: My Boxee box is getting old, but I knew of no replacements. The problem is I …
Names known for HDMI-CEC via Wikipedia:
Anynet+ (Samsung), Aquos Link (Sharp), BRAVIA Link and BRAVIA Sync (Sony), HDMI-CEC (Hitachi), E-link (AOC), Kuro Link (Pioneer), INlink (Insignia), CE-Link and Regza Link (Toshiba), RIHD (Remote Interactive over HDMI) (Onkyo), RuncoLink (Runco International), SimpLink (LG), T-Link (ITT), HDAVI Control, EZ-Sync, VIERA Link (Panasonic), EasyLink (Philips), and NetCommand for HDMI (Mitsubishi).
Because of the naming, turning on CEC can be confusing: How to Enable HDMI-CEC on Your TV, and Why You Should

I love markdown, but it lacks the ability to directly create destination anchors (but MarkDownExtra however does for headers)
Anchors can be used to link within and between documents, the foundation of web navigation, and also very important inside documentation.
Luckily, Markdown allows inline HTML, so you can add an HTML destination anchor: an a element with either a name or id attribute.
XHTML deprecated the name attribute, but you should actually use it. The reason is that in HTML5, most browsers create a global JavaScript variable for each id id anchor.
In addition, you should not use a self closing a element: only XHTML supports that.
So the Markdown then becomes something like this:
| ## <a name='possiblePlatforms'>Possible platforms</a> | |
| Link to [possible platforms](#possiblePlatforms). |
In the heading, you will see the html for the destination anchor, in the link you will see the MarkDown for the internal source anchor..
The above example will render like this:
Link to possible platforms.
