The Code Connection: Set Image as Wallpaper in Google Chrome
http://www.thecodeconnection.com/2011/11/set-image-as-wallpaper-in-google-chrome.html
Monday, November 21, 2011. Set Image as Wallpaper in Google Chrome. I love Google Chrome. It's my go-to browser, whether I'm on a Windows or a Mac OS X system. But there's one thing that annoys me about it: there's no way to set an image as a desktop background. IE does it. Firefox does it. Why doesn't Chrome? Well, because Google says that this is a rarely used feature and therefore they don't plan to ever support it. Google, you're wrong. Location: Cedar Park, TX. June 18, 2016 at 5:18 AM.

The Code Connection: November 2011

Tuesday, November 29, 2011. Fixing Stuck Builds in TFS 2010. Sometimes builds will get stuck in TFS 2010 and no build with a priority of "Normal" will build. You'll find that you have to change to priority to something higher in order to actually trigger the build. This usually happens because of an unhandled build failure on a build with "Normal" priority. TFS thinks there is another "Normal" build ahead in the queue, and therefore holds off on building your new request. So how do you fix it? Chrome ext...

Wednesday, October 17, 2012. Compiling Moles Projects After VS2010 SP1 Update.

The type or namespace name 'XXXXXXXXXXX' does not exist in the namespace 'YYYYYYYYYY' (are you missing an assembly reference? The old assembly should be in:.

The Code Connection: Adding Metadata to Generated Classes
http://www.thecodeconnection.com/2013/02/adding-metadata-to-generated-classes.html
Wednesday, February 6, 2013. Adding Metadata to Generated Classes. If you work with generated classes at all, especially with frameworks like Entity Framework. You've inevitably faced the issue of putting metadata on a generated class. This is easier to do than you might think. For example, let's say you have the following generated class:. 1: public partial class GeneratedClass 2: { 3: / some code here 4: }. 1: [MyClassMetadata] 2: public partial class GeneratedClass 3: { 4: }. Location: Austin, TX.

Monday, January 20, 2014. Have you ever wanted to use something like Pinterest, but felt out of place? Kind of like that "single-dad-hanging-out-with-soccer-moms" out of place? If you think the idea of keeping and sharing lists of stuff that interests you is a good idea, but you're looking for a more professional site, Listicle. I started out by creating a list of interesting future technologies. 10 Cool and Interesting Websites. 19 Muslim Inventions That Changed the World. I like that someone is caterin...

The Code Connection: September 2011
http://www.thecodeconnection.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
Wednesday, September 28, 2011. The first time I saw that word pop up in a Visual Studio Code Analysis warning, I thought I was seeing things. It sounded like some cheesy killer robot from a bad 1950's sci-fi movie. But no, it's a real thing. And it's not nearly as complicated as it sounds (no pun intended). Simple code, low risk. Moderately complex code, moderate risk. Complex code, high risk. Overly complex code, virtually untestable and unmaintainable, unacceptable risk. So what should you do with this?
