TLDRLegal – Software Licenses Explained in Plain English
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/09
Ilya Grigorik – Google+ (from Google) shared a link to tldrlegal.com/: TLDRLegal – Software Licenses Explained in Plain English.
Very convenient to have all these licenses in one central places, bot for developers and consumers of software.
He also found why on certain devices (for instance Android Nexus 4) you get a security warning when viewing that site:
the www is missing from the certificate, so http://www.tldrlegal.com is not included in it: Qualys SSL Labs – Projects / SSL Server Test / tldrlegal.com.
For those devices apparently, https://tldrlegal.com redirects to https://www.tldrlegal.com giving the security warning.
On most desktop browsers, you see https://tldrlegal.com perfectly fine.

HTML Best Practice: Get your HEAD in order (via: Eric Law; IEInternals on MSDN Blogs)
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/08
Even though 3 years old, this is still relevant. Thanks Ilya Grigorik for pointing me at it.
Make sure your HTML HEAD tag has the elements in the below order:
- any charset must come first (UTF-8 works best) though even better is to specify this in your http header,
- any any x-ua-compatible comes second.
Why? Read Best Practice: Get your HEAD in order – IEInternals – Site Home – MSDN Blogs.
So the document element starts like this: Read the rest of this entry »

OpenSUSE 12.2: Install package lesspipe and using it from bash
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/07
lesspipe is a great tool:
lesspipe.sh is an input filter for the pager less as described in less‘s man page. The script allows you to view files with binary content, compressed files, archives and files contained in archives.
… however getting it to run on OpenSUSE was a bit of a journey as it is not part of the standard OpenSUSE 12.x repository. You can only get ‘unstable’ lesspipe packages, of which the Show home:adra / lesspipe – openSUSE Build Service seems to be maintained most frequently.
This is how to install it from there: Read the rest of this entry »

WebRTC diagram of flow and their states: Overview of a peer connection lifetime (via: Alexandre Gouaillard on Google Groups)
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/07
From Alexandre GOUAILLARD:
I see a lot of questions on the mailing list, in my course, and during the meetups about the different states and flow of a peer connection. I thought I should share a slide that shows an overview of what you should expect, as it proved helpful for some as a reference.

Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/06
The @appmethod secret.
Wow. Out of the blue, I just read Embarcadero Launches AppMethod, A New Multi-Device Development Platform For Native Apps | TechCrunch. And I’m impressed.
In short:
At SXSW 2014 (which is running now, its agenda has a schedule from March 7th till March 16th), Embarcadero announces appmethod, to be released in beta on March 18th, 2014 for building native cross platform applications. Many have found out you can apply for the beta at www.appmethod.com.
More and more people are bumping into the appmethod link, for instance on FaceBook, on Google Plus, at Delphi Bistro and #Appmethod starting with the @appmethod secret by Joy Ruff.
Below are a few my observations from following all of the above links. Read them, especially the TechCrunch. I expect interesting posts from others to follow really soon now (:.
I’m only a few hours ahead of you readers, but I’m having a positive vibe just for these reasons: Read the rest of this entry »

When GExperts for Delphi 2007 does not install itself in Delphi on Windows Vista/7/8
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/06
Like When DelphiSpeedup cannot register itself in Delphi on Windows Vista/7/8, GExperts also had problems installing on Windows Vista and up when Delphi runs in a non-elevated account.
It said it installed fine, but it didn’t get included when Delphi was started. The reason was that it got installed in the wrong root key.
What happened is that GExperts installed itself into the HKLM root:
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Borland\BDS\5.0\Experts]
GExperts=C:\Program Files (x86)\GExperts for Delphi 2007\GExpertsDelphi2007.dll
But it should have installed itself in the HKCU root: Read the rest of this entry »

Windows “FIND” console app: how to *not* have the dashed line with the filename in the output
Posted by jpluimers on 2014/03/06
When using the Windows FIND console application, it will insert a dashed line
C:\Users\Developer>echo Foo > %temp%\foo.txt
C:\Users\Developer>find "Foo" %temp%\foo.txt
---------- C:\USERS\DEVELOPER\APPDATA\LOCAL\TEMP\FOO.TXT
Foo
This is really annoying when using FIND to parse files, and redirect the output fur further processing.
But there is a way around it, as find will not emit the dashed line when it the input is not a file, but stdin: Read the rest of this entry »
