Analyzing E-mail .Msg files and Attachments without Outlook
I had a copy of an e-mail that had a virus in it that I wanted to analyze. The problem was that the Outlook e-mail message was in .msg format. My virtual machine that I was using to analyze malware was Windows XP based. The problem was that the included Outlook Express would not open the Outlook saved .msg file. And I did not want to install Outlook on the system.
JSON and JSONP
There's been an interesting discussion over at JSMentors.com about JSONP and how to make it safer. This is a good thing, not least because it forced me to take a deeper look and come up with a (sort of) counter-proposal of my own.
We'll start with an overview of JSON basics, including the EcmaScript 5 JSON API, and then discuss cross-domain JSON retrieval via JSONP.
JQuery - Set up Basic Tabbing and Programmatically Control Tab Activation

So with all of the hype surrounding Microsoft's new Outlook.com webmail system, one has to ask oneself exactly what the benefits are to this new system. Is Outlook.com just another online email service just like the rest? Or is there something unique that distinguishes it from similar systems by Google or Yahoo?
Keep in mind that these are just my personal opinions and I'm sure many would strongly disagree.
Overloading JavaScript's dot operator with direct proxies
With the new ECMAScript 6 Proxy object that Firefox has implemented, you can make dot do pretty much anything you want. I made the dot operator in JavaScript behave like Haskell's bind:
To be clear, ECMAScript 6 has changed the API for Proxy since Firefox adopted it, but you can implement the new one on top of the old one. Tom van Cutsem has…
Do Programmers Need To Master Every Programming Language?
If you browse the net, you would notice a handful of programming languages to choose from. Different programming languages range from A# .NET to ZPL. However, we raise this argument to all programmers: Is there a need to master every programming language available? Do programmers need to be a Jack of all trades in programming? We will try to find out.
