the lost generation
all know spam.
spam has been with us since the 1980s.
If you have an email account, you know spam.
More importantly, you know spam filters - junk mail folders etc...
But what about the 21 year old girl, who met a guy at a bar, they got along REALLY well.
The 21 year old girl got the guys email address and proceeded to send him the following message:
Subject: Would love to meet you again!
Hey, this is Samantha, would love to meet again, feeling horny and fantasizing about you
This email has a snowball's chance in hell to get through the email filters, specially if sent from generic email account like yahoo/hotmail.
So let us do some numbers here, pure guesswork.
this has happened 200.000 times.
Let's say 0.1% of those emails would have resulted in pregnancy (either through a relationship or just one(+) night stand)
That is 200 people.
200 people that do not exist today because of spam.

joke
We went to get some cold, refreshing beverages after a vigorous tennis match. We placed our order and drove to the window. When I got there, the cashier said, "$4.04".
I replied, "Not found?"
The cashier looked at me like I was a fucking alien. My girlfriend looked at me like I was a fucking idiot.
I laughed and handed over the money.

Visual studio keybinding open specific file.
Made these macros to make my life easier, since most of the time i'm editing the same files.
Sub ToChickenStatic()
DTE.ItemOperations.OpenFile("e:\Chickenphotos\code\Chickenstatic.cs")
End Sub
Sub ToChickenExtends()
DTE.ItemOperations.OpenFile("e:\Chickenphotos\code\Chickenextends.cs")
End Sub
Actually I have about 8 of these, and they are bound to CTRL-1,2,3...
You can then bind the macros to keys via Tools->Customize->Keyboard
One of my more rewarding keybinds.

c# toJson
Nice extension method if you work allot with ajax/javascript/linq.
public static string ToJson(this object o)
{
return (JsonConvert.SerializeObject(o));
}
Can call from code.
example:
[WebMethod]
public string GetAllPoultry(){
var q = from b in data.Chicken select b;
return q.ToJson();
}
public static string ToJson(this object o)
{
return (JsonConvert.SerializeObject(o));
}
Can call from code.
example:
[WebMethod]
public string GetAllPoultry(){
var q = from b in data.Chicken select b;
return q.ToJson();
}

Adding shortcut key for MeasureIt for Firefox.
/*depreciated*/
This no longer works with newer versions of firefox since the Keyconfig extension is dead. I use Greenshot for imagegrabbing, and that displays the pixel size.
Start by grabbing
Keyconfig.
Go to Tools->Keyconfig->Add a new key->Code is
"net.kevinfreitas.measureit.toggle();"
The shortcut key won't work to turn of MeasureIt, but you can use ESC for that.
I use CTRL-E, good for left hand when right is on the mouse, and not really used for anything (it's bound to web search, but you can unbind it easily)

Poultry
Some numbers:
- My mp3 collection is 30.052 songs.
- 17 song names have the word chicken.
- 13 song names have the word duck
- 3 songs have the word lion, (space lion, dub lion, gold lion)
How to: Return a Value from a Task
Simple version from .net 4 Task library.
Task chicken = Task.Factory.StartNew(() => DoChicken());
//Do some chicken.
then when you chicken,
if(chicken.IsCompleted)
return(chicken.Result) //calling chicken.Result will hang until DoChicken finishes
else
chicken chicken.

Exciting news for my reader!
This blog is getting some hits!
7 so far, and by my calculations either
1) hits will reach 117.440.512 by 20.12.2010
2) hits will reach 103 by 20.12.2010
Depends if the 100% increase is steady or the addition of 7 hits per week is steady.
Exciting!
