Unit Testing in Visual Studio 2005

Unit Testing support should be included with all versions of Visual Studio 2005 and not just with Team System.

Listening to Joe Trippi this morning…

I listened to Joe talk about the Dean campaign this morning on Forum with Michael Krazny. The guy made some interesting points. After listening to him and seeing Fahrenheit 9/11, I feel like I can no longer trust the press. This is bad news for theis democracy.

Napoleon Dynamite

Ok, saw the movie. Did I like it? Heck Yes! I recommend going to see it on a big screen near you.

Oh yeah, if you haven’t seen Fahrenheit 9/11, I would see that first.

On the Gall Bladder

Well, it’s been over a month since mine was removed. If you can avoid getting rid of yours, well that is good. If you do need to get rid of yours, you’ll be fine. I haven’t had any symptoms nor have I had to change my lifestyle.

Larry Hagman is not dead. He is more alive than most of us.

I was reading the SF Chronicle the other day. There was a short article stating that Larry Hagman is not dead. Larry is probably most famous as the character J.R. from the show ‘Dallas’. He was also widely known as the goofy straight guy in ‘I Dream of Jeannie’. Apparently someone had mistakenly put this out, and it got circulated. He told the reporter that, yes, he did have a bad bout of a bacterial infection, but he was doing ok. Larry had a liver transplant in 1996.

Now all of that is interesting… but then he ventures this….

I was on my back for a month. My muscles atrophied. I didn’t have any strength. They said if I did need one (a liver), then they would put me on the (transplant) list. I said, ‘Don’t bother. I’m 72-years-old and I don’t want to deprive somebody of a new liver just because I’m greedy.’ I feel fine now. I am not afraid of death. I had taken LSD 40 years ago and I had ego death. That took the fear of death away.

Wow

Using the old RegOpenKey (from Win 3.1), guess what it’s access mask is

Little tidbit. If you happen to be using the old RegOpenKey (from Win 3.1), guess what it’s access mask is?

If you look in MSDN, they will say that the key is opened with the ‘default security mask’. Well, I took a look at the code, and that mask is 0×2000000. After digging into MS’s wrapper code, you will find that the code is equal to MAXIMUM_ALLOWED.
