C# certified

Just 2 days and a couple of hours before I am scheduled to take the ZCE exam, I dared to take the ‘Programming in C#’ test at ExpertRating.com, and passed.

[JAVA] To equalize or not to equalize

Being used to the magic of PHP, it can be quite hard to get used to a more strict language. Variable comparison can only be done if both types are the same. String “5″ is definately not the same as Integer 5. But what happens if you compare two strings? That should be easy right? Well, not always.

[UPDATE] Shopping – How hard can it be?

This morning, I tried to do some shopping at Zend.com’s webshop. Shouldn’t be too hard, should it? Go to zend.com, click a product, click ‘add to cart’, click ‘continue shopping’, choose another product, click ‘add to cart’, click ‘checkout’, … err, wait a second, where did the first product go?

Revenge of the WOW-ers

Don’t you just hate those people that post comments like ‘OMGWTFBBQ!!!111!1!!’?

A normal human would not comment, or educate themselves if they have no idea what the story is trying to tell, but I guess for certain people this is their way of showing. But it get’s worse…

Webdevelopment evolution

I like PHP. No, better said: I love PHP. It never failed me on creating a solution for a real problem. And it has allways been fun to play with. But lately, I’ve run more and more into the shortcomings of PHP. I coped with it for a while, but it became increasingly harder to motivate myself to continue developing in it, and the urge to change whole PHP grew more and more.

“It’s a crack, I’m back, yeah, standing on the rooftops shouting out: baby, I’m ready to go!” After a whole lot of troubles, my site finally got back online with a lot of help of AN22.
