Reaction Time Tester

I wrote this Silverlight app for my Cousin. The trickiest part was raising an event after a random amount of time for the "Wait..." portion of the test. I ended up using a "DispatcherTimer" and set the interval to a Random amount of seconds.




Have Fun!

Configure SonarAnalyzer.CSharp with .editorconfig, no need for SonarCloud or SonarQube

Our goal was to use  SonarSource / SonarQube  static code analysis with the most "minimal" install/configuration footprint. We wanted the static code analysis to break/fail the build on the local developer machines as well as our CI/CD Azure DevOps environment if a rule was violated. SonarSource products usually rely on some external source,  SonarCloud /SonarQube to determine which rules to apply on the local dev machine, and to store the results. We wanted to eliminate these dependencies. SonarSource also provides a Visual Studio extension called  SonarLint  to help check the static code analysis rules within the Visual Studio IDE without needing an external source for the rules. The static code analysis rules SonarLint enforces are also defined in the  SonarAnalyzer.CSharp  nuget package. This nuget package is a set of  Roslyn Code Analyzers . In .NET Core, Roslyn Code Analyzers are triggered during a build if the nuget package is referenced by...

Search iPhone Text Messages with SQLite SQL Query

Image
While you're here, check out some of our interactive visualizations: Would you like to visualize your text messages? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- In my experience, the iPhone text message search functionality is usually pretty awful. Especially if you're trying to find a text from a few years ago. Luckily, if you backup your iPhone using iTunes, your text messages are exported/stored in a SQLite database, and it is fairly easy to query. Here are the steps to SQL Query your Text Messages.   1. Backup your iPhone using iTunes.   2. Find the SQLite file that contains your text messages .     - in ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/* with a filename of 3d0d7e5fb2ce288813306e4d4636395e047a3d28   3. Ensure you have a SQLite Query tool ( SQLiteBrowser is pretty good ).   4. Open your SQLite Text Message DB File using your favorite SQLite query tool.   5. Execute t...

Install and Setup Windows 10 for a Developer

Image
I have been writing code on the Microsoft Stack for around 10 years and have set up quite a few developer machines over the years. Starting with Windows XP, Visual Studio 2003, and SQL Server 2000, and on every version of Windows, VS, .NET, and SQL Server since. If there is a quirk with installing dev tools, I've likely run into it. I recently upgraded my primary dev machine to Windows 10, Visual Studio Enterprise 2015, and SQL Server 2014, and decided to capture the steps in this blog so I could point other people to it. Notice: Obviously, these are my preferences, and may not work for your situation. I am writing this post after running this setup for about a week* (edit: about 6 months now and still good). I will update this post as I continue to work with Windows 10. Objective From scratch, set up a developer machine with the following: 1. Windows 10 Pro 2. SQL Server 2014 Developer Edition 3. Visual Studio 2015 Enterprise Edition 4. Other dev tools (git, Sublime Tex...
