Chromium for mac sucks. Get it here.

Today I accidentally visited http://opera.com, this is what i got:

I have recently spent some time on vimeo. This is really nice video compiled from “4500+ still photographs”. Enjoy.

I hate Microsoft, really. Lets start from begining.

Last thursday a friend of mine asked me a question: “Is it possible to get Microsoft dynamics crm working with php? Send messages, etc.”. I thought: “Never heard of it, but how hard it could be?” So I said, that I will look more into it that evening.

I started with parallels, because I wanted to do some other tasks, also and because of windows 7 beta installation on bootcamp disk. So I got parallels and installed xp. That went really nice and easy. I spent a little time enjoying parallels “Coherence” mode and started to look farther. I was already downloaded MSCRM server and Client (at this point I smelt something bad is coming, because of client and server installations). Continue reading »

Little thing, but still why there is button - “Hide accounts”, what is totally useless, because it is only real thing in first page after login and only one I expect to be there. And, if we are getting into details, why there is no button for hiding ads?

Some time ago I was searching how to get “now playing” status from itunes to show in skype. Then I did not find anything. Today I remembered it and decided to try search again. I found nothing and with nothing I mean I couldn’t find any application that could do that. But instead I found this forum post - http://forum.skype.com/index.php?showtopic=83508 what made me wonder. So I looked in Skype settings and there it is - Cmd+, -> Advanced tab -> “Show iTunes song in my mood message”. Simple enough.

p.s. I don’t know if this works on windows skype too.

Little late, but I just updated my wordpress version to 2.7 and it looks great. Admin interface has got a lot of attention.

I just installed windows 7 on my .. yes .. macbook. Everything went fine, without any problems, except install time, of course. But I guess it was fast comparing to Vista. First impression is very good, I mean really very good. Bad thing is that I don’t remember my network key for wireless access point so I don’t know if it is a windows problem or what. I tried to open “Explorer”, “Internet explorer” and “media player” and they were doing quite fast. I know, there is no reason why to move back to windows, but I’m quite impressed about it, firstly because it looks beautiful, secondly, because it is fast even on laptop. But (always have some:) windows xp is fast too with fresh install. After some months it is/was always starting to drive me crazy. And another thing I have noticed - better computer, faster it gets slow.
So .. hard to say if it is fast or slow in real life - I will not use it in everyday basis (OS X has bought me:), but I would be lucky if I could have need for using it.

Why is this working:

function &test($var)
{
static $vars = array(’aaa’, ‘bbb’);

if (isset($vars[$var]))
{
return $vars[$var];
}
else
{
return $vars;
}
}

and this is not:

function &test($var)
{
static $vars = array(’aaa’, ‘bbb’);
return (isset($vars[$var]) ? $vars[$var] : $vars);
}

showing me an error: Only variable references should be returned by reference.

I guess php compiler is not so smart to check if booth those return values in second example are variables.
