Jocul Tetris implineste 25 de ani, La multi ani !



Tetris a fost creat de un programator rus Alexey Pajitnov in iunie 1984.
Inventatorul tetris-ului era inebunit dupa puzzele-uri si dorea sa faca un joc in care jucatorii unesc piese diferite pe o suprafata.
Numele jocului Tetris provine din doua cuvinte "tetromino" si "tenis".
Jocul a aparut pentru prima data pe IBM PC. Foarte repede a castigat popularitate si a fost portat si pe alte platforme.
Cand Nintendo si-a lansat propria versiune Tetris pentru Game Boy in 1989, atunci Tetris a fost vandut in 35 de milioane de copii.
Pe atunci Pajintov castiga foarte putin din propria lui inventie, Atari Games, guvernul fostului URSS si Nintendo se luptau pentru drepturile de autor.

In zilele noastre Tetris a ajuns la un numar mare de jucatori, a aparut pe telefoane mobile, iar versiunea Nintendo DS a fost vanduta in 2 milioane ne copii.Tetris are si un site unde va puteti juca versiunea aniversarii a 25 de ani de Tetris.
Pajintov este acum din nou in locul sau, detinand drepturile de autor si cu ocazia aniversarii a pornit si o campanie de promovare a Tetrisului.

Jocurile pe care le-am jucat in copilarie au fost multe, dar nici unul nu s-a putut compara cu Tetris.
La multi ani Tetris !!!

Sanitizer provider is not configured in the web.config file. Ajax Control Toolkit and HtmlEditorExtender problems.

The Problem Today I had a hard 2 hours, and if you have found this blog post, I bet we are in the same shoes. I was working on a ASP .NET + windows azure project, and I needed the HtmlEditorExtender   control from the Ajax Control Toolkit . I was lucky to find a control for my needs. So far so good. I've installed the toolkit with NuGet Package manager, it added a reference to the assembly to my web.config. I've used the following code where I needed the HtmlEditorExtender: < ajaxToolkit:ToolkitScriptManager runat ="Server" /> < asp:TextBox ID ="txtComments" TextMode ="MultiLine" Columns ="60" Rows ="8" runat ="server" /> < ajaxToolkit:HtmlEditorExtender TargetControlID ="txtComments" runat ="server" /> </ asp:Content > Just to see how this control works. As you can bet ajaxToolkit is the refe...

DataTable to TreeView in C#, Displaying Hierarchies

In this article I will show you how to display hierarchies in a TreeView control, when your data is in a DataTable. In this example we have an Employee table with 3 columns: ID, ParentID and Name. ParentID is the ID of the boss for the current Employee. The first step is to sort the table by the ParentID . This step is really important because we cannot insert a node in the tree until it's parent is not inserted. Notice the root of the tree having a ParentID of -1. Here is the code for this: The second step is to use a XmlDocument. The TreeView control does not have the functionality to find an arbitrary node given a node ID. A recursive find function seems to be too much hassle, not to mention the performance, so I decided to take advantage of the XPath search capabilities of XmlDocument to find a given Parent node. Here is the code for this: The third step is to hook up our data to the TreeView. If you try to bind the TreeView control to an XmlDocument you w...

'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 50: ordinal not in range(128)

Disclaimer: I'm not a python developer :) Yesterday I've found a tool that I needed, it was written in python. Nothing special, get a list of links from a csv, login to a page, and access a link from the opened page by match. The script was old(2 years), and it needed some refinement, but I managed to make it work to start griding my over 7000 links, after 30 minutes later I saw it crashed with a strange error: UnicodeDecodeError: 'ascii' codec can't decode byte 0xe2 in position 50: ordinal not in range(128) I've started to investigate the issue, found some information on stackoverflow, but I was confused, I don't really know python that well. What I've found is to make some changes in the config files from python, which I don't really know how to do and it was not recommended, or to use decode('utf-8') function on the string variable and usage that caused the issue. As you can see in the full error log, listed down below, I tra...
