Even as I wrote this blog (13 August 2012 2:01am), the Indonesia Data Center is currently having outages, kompas.com said that the UPS on the second floor exploded and causing some huge Indonesian sites as of detik.com, kapanlagi.com and okezone.com is unavailable.

Upon finishing my blackberry application, PhotoCard (it is an application to manipulate photo, add photo filters and text and then share it), there are many requests posted to my email asking for options to change the text color. Blackberry JDE don’t have Color picker field, so I have to create it from scratch. And there’s no blackberry JDE library for the color picker field. Fortunately I found some good codes in Nokia developer website and I just need to convert some of the codes to JDE codes.

So here I share the code, it is already up on the github for you to use. Have fun

First of all, I would like to say: Happy new year Haha, this is my first post in 2012 and my first post will began with messages to all admins around the world, to limit their request length. Why? Because it can lead to DOS attack, using a simple POST request with specially crafted messages that can led to huge amount of CPU usages.

I don’t have to explain the background behind it, because many articles has done a great job of explaining. Here’s the related articles explaining the problem:

• http://www.ocert.org/advisories/ocert-2011-003.html
• http://cryptanalysis.eu/blog/2011/12/28/effective-dos-attacks-against-web-application-plattforms-hashdos/
• http://nikic.github.com/2011/12/28/Supercolliding-a-PHP-array.html

The most important is the third link, because many sites are using PHP, and so many sites are not yet updated into PHP 5.3, especially shared hosting sites.

Following the BCA transaction downloader script, my friend asked me to do the Mandiri transaction downloader script.

So, here it is, ofcourse it is in python. The reason I keep doing this in python is that so other user can use and learn python too. Since it is not as suck as the other scripting language and never let me down

Just change the parameter inside the script:

#Ganti username dengan username anda
USERNAME = "user123"

#Ganti pin dengan pin anda
PIN = "123123"

#Ganti pake norek anda
NOREK = "1111111111111"

#Hari
DAYS = 7

Its so self explaining, below is the full script

Having trouble editing e-mail prior to reply or forwarding? Or perhaps your colleagues at mailing-list is flaming you because of top posting? No more excuses now, there is apps for Blackberry that allow you to edit / inline editing email messages for reply or forward

Try EmailEdit Blackberry Apps. The price is less than a dollar, but it works great.

It even can pull HTML email, and format it as text.

Often annoyed by misspelled e-mail and some meaningless word, I would like to introduce BBtranslator, a blackberry translator apps.

No, it is not yet published on the appworld, since it still beta release. And yes, it is powered by Google Translate.
