Localized .NET applications Written on May 25, 2007, by akafazov.
One of the things I really like about Visual Studio and .NET is the built-in localization support. The automatically IDE creates XML-formated .resx files when you mark a Form as Localizable = true. Then, adding controls to the form and setting their Text property would automatically create an entry in the .resx file for the [...]

What the bleep do we know Written on May 19, 2007, by Angel Kafazov.
Several month back I saw the movie What the Bleep Do We Know!?. I really presented me with a point of view at the world I have never imagined possible and open new totally different ways of thinking about me, other people and the universe. It wasn’t until soon, when I say it again and [...]

Angry port scanner Written on May 7, 2007, by akafazov.

I created the firewall configuration allowing all in/out traffic and applied it, but it took no effect. Windows 2000 looks weird, I am using the mmc [...]
