Somehow in a production environment I did get this error too:
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040154): Retrieving the COM class factory for component with CLSID {BDEADF26-C265-11D0-BCED-00A0C90AB50F} failed due to the following error: 80040154.
These two posts helped me to solve it:
The solution is deceptively simple:
Resolution: It is because you are trying to build a x86 application. Go to project properties and set type to x64 everywhere. Then rebuild and debug. The Error Vanishes!
The SharePoint 2010 dll’s are all x64, and Visual Studio 2010 by default still starts .NET projects in x86 mode for both Release and Debug settings.

Greg Hewgill published a bunch Stack Overflow ebooks and StackExchange stats.
His readme explains a bit more on the books.
The blog he maintains makes up for some nice reading too.
Be sure to read the blog entry on the ebooks.

Quite a while ago, user bobince wrote great answer on why not to parse html with RegEx.
Somehow people fail to recognize the brilliance of the answer, and try to simplify it into something like “don’t, use an XML or HTML parser in stead”.
bobince even posted some nice contra-examples that are impossible to parse in RegEx (heck, even most regular HTML and XML parsers have difficulties with them).
So: enjoy the beauty of the answer while it is still locked for editing.

In the past I wrote a few blog posts on posting sourcecode in WordPress.
Nick Hodges‘ last Flotsam and Jetsam blog post pointed me to the SyntaxHighlighter JavaScript that is used by WordPress and many other engines/sites.
Their site contains an even more elaborate list of supported languages.
I had the basic list right in my last post, but was missing all the aliases (which often are easier than the longer proper names).
This is the new table adapted from their list: Read the rest of this entry »

WordPress Page Order is a number increasing from left to right.
You can have holes in the number sequence.
So, back to the BASIC and FORRAN line numbering schemes (increment bij 100, 10, or you name it).

Dropbox can show you this message when it can’t update (and the icon in the system tray gets a red cross 
):
can’t establish a secure connection
In my case, it was because I was using the Fiddler2 tool to debug some web-traphic.
Fiddler intercepts the WinInet API layer by putting itself as a proxy in it.
The great thing is that Fiddler2 can hook HTTPS traffic.
The not so cool thing is that I forgot that DropBox routes its’ HTTPS traphic through the WinInet API too :-)
Disabling Fiddler2 enabled DropBox to start connecting 
again and finally making a good connection 
.
As soon as DropBox has a good connection, you can restart Fiddler2 again to debug your internet traffic.

Last week, Jean-Baptiste Jung started a bit of a stir when posting on Smashing Magazine about 10 Useful WordPress Security Tweaks.
He totally missed the official Hardening WordPress page and generated a lot of comment traffic.
All of his tweaks were rebutted by commenter Vid Luther (Mobile Commerce and Technology Evangelist and ZippyKid owner) in a separate How to Secure a WordPress Site.
This once again shows that for serious work you really need to know what you are doing.
If you don’t, then leave the work to people who do: Vid is one of those guys.
