Mahusay, not really kill, just bring down. But it makes the title sound nice.
In other news, Microsoft has finally done something right by bringing down Rustock, a botnet that infected millions of computers and caused them to send massive amounts of spam. Rustock was one of the (if not the) biggest spam networks in the world.
Microsoft (and some feds) raided some hosting facilities in the US and took down the servers that instructed infected computers to send spam.

As usual, I got bored so I wrote a game in JavaScript. It’s a role-playing game called Labyrinth (you can find it here) which follows a guy who gets lost in a cave. You have to collect sticks to destroy barrels, planks to cross water, keys for colored doors, and more.
Here’s what Labyrinth looks like:
I know it’s horribly drawn, but I drew everything myself. I’m such a bad artist that it’s a miracle that the key even looked like a key. And that glowing yellow/orange/red thing is a lantern.
Well done, Bill, you’ve finally done something right. Internet Explorer 9 is now out and can be downloaded from microsoft.com. Here’s the catch: it only works on Windows Vista and 7.

Nainis ako (at ang aking calculator ay ng mga baterya), kaya ko naisip na gusto kong kumuha ng crack sa pagbuo ng isang calculator na web-based. (Maaari mong mahanap ito sa hathix.com / etc / calculator. Talaga, maaari kang maglagay ng ilang mga utos (variable na pahayag o function ng tawag) at ang calculator gagamitin ng JavaScript kapangyarihan upang mahanap ang kasagutan.
Ang neatest bagay tungkol sa calculator ay tumutulong ito ay may ilang mga built-in na mga pag-andar (anumang bagay mula sa paghahanap ng mga parisukat ugat ng isang numero ng sa paghanap ng LCM ng dalawang numero sa paghanap ng mga solusyon sa isang parisukat equation.)
Narito ang ilang mga command maaari mong ipasok sa calculator at ano ang ginagawa nila:
My parents just downloaded a zipped file from the Internet (not sure what it was, I think an installer or something.) But that’s beside the point, the important thing is that they needed to unzip it so that they could access the files inside. They downloaded WinZip, which lets you unzip files.
All’s mabuti, karapatan? Only problem is that it costs a lot. $30, sa katunayan. That doesn’t seem like much, but the general rule of thumb with software is:
If you pulled out your credit card to download something, you probably did pay too much.
