I knew I had solved this in the past, as the MacBook Air showed up correctly in the list:

The trick is that there are 2 names for your Mac: the name for the Apple side of things, and the name for the Windows side of things. For the latter you’d think it would be named SMB or NetBIOS. Read the rest of this entry »
The source is sooo simple, that I now definitely need to make some time to really do some Yahoo Pipes research:
Since Delphi Feeds doesn’t list my blog any more and generally isn’t very fast in responding to requests for adding or removing feeds, I have created my own aggregated feed: Delphi Pipe. It’s done with Yahoo Pipes and currently contains the following feeds (most important first ;-) ):
Oh and thanks Thomas Mueller for listing my feed second (;
Bizar: lokale verenigingen moeten bloeden om een (semi-)commerciële Bibliotheek (nauwelijks open is, al tonnen subsidie krijgt en goeddeels buiten de gemeente opereert) te steunen.
Verenigingen zijn de lijm van je samenleving. Ze krijgen al geen of nauwelijks subsidie krijgen en worden hiermee hard geraakt: de huur bedraagt nu al een substantieel deel van hun begroting en gaat zo nog zwaarder drukken.
De zwaarst getroffen verenigingen zijn (huurverhoging per jaar):
Adest Musica: 12.350 euro
Theater ‘t Onderdak: 8.955 euro
Biljart Entree: 3.040 euro
ATV Pankras: 2.970 euro
De Saksen: 2.470 euro
NVVH Vrouwennetwerk: 1.065 euro
Crescendo: 1.030 euro
Stichting tot Exploitatie en Beheer van SCC ’t Onderdak (SEBO) moet totaal 31.335 euro extra huur innen. Welzijnskwartier moet 23.650 euro gaan betalen voor Fascinus en @hok. Waarschijnlijk zal er voor beide stichtingen extra subsidie nodig zijn om deze huren te kunnen betalen.
In Agneshove, Het Trefpunt en de Bibliotheek krijgen lagere huren door het gelijktrekken van de huren in de tarievennota. De bibliotheek gaat 26.635 euro minder huur betalen. St.Cecilia is 2600 euro goedkoper uit.
Luckily, both the Windows Explorer and the Mac OS X Finder allow you to specify the full folder path to browse, where you can enter a path that otherwise would (partially) be invisible.
Windows Explorer: just enter a full path in the address bar.
Mac OS X Finder: press Shift-Command-G (or Menu -> Go -> Go to Folder...), then enter the full path.
An alternative for Mac OS X is the payed (but great tool) Path Finder which is one of the best Finder replacements I know.

PS: most of the things I put on-line are using a BSD 3-clause “New” or “Revised” License. But I might go for a simpler one. It doesn’t hurt looking at your licenses every now and then.
Interfaces are great, but they can be a pain to debug. Forgetting one weak link can lead to Access Violation hell. I seem to remember a utility that would let you visualise the links between interfaced objects, but can’t remember what it was called. Anybody know?
Do you have any clever interface debugging tips or tricks?
Mixing object and interface references leads to complex situations, especially when some classes make refcounting go away (not limited to UI components) so refactoring is a good idea, it at all possible:
When the mix of interface reference counting and TObject gets so complex, that the source code is no longer obvious, maintenance costs sometimes become too high and another solution might be better.
