Safari on windows

Apple launches safari for Windows
Oh great, now I have to test my scripts on ANOTHER browser.
I wonder when everyone, who knows something about C#, will write a browser with its own engine, and who doesn't care about standards and make each web developer's life miserable. Just to have his own 0.1% of the market share.

Albania welcomes Bush.

Albania welcomed George Bush when he came there pretty warm and friendly.
Maybe too friendly. Watch this video to see how they treat their guests :)

E-gold VS Paypal : The developer's view

When I first began using e-gold in small scripts, like bubble games, etc. I found it pretty easy to use. Now when I have to implement Paypal's Payflow Pro I find it pretty hard.
Why do I have to read 170+ pages of developer's guide + 24 pages express checkout and direct payment simulator guide in order to implement just this system? I really don't get it. Why should we make our lives THAT difficult?

Passed the exam!

Yay! I passed the exam! It wasn't hard actually, I was lucky, because I was alone with the teacher, so we could speak about the problem.
We actually talked 10 minutes about the exam and 3-4 hours about other things that had nothing with it. He asked me what I'm working, and when he understood he said he needs a site. From what I heard he needs a wiki + a forum. That's easy. The job should assure the passing of the last exam.
So I guess I was pretty lucky :)
Now I have some time to concentrate on my job and on the article I'm writing about accounts in php.

Exam

I'm going to Blagoevgrad for an exam. It's one of the two exams left until I finish my bachelor's degree on Physics in the South-West University in the town. The exam is on "Differential equations" and it's left from the second year in the university. The other exam I have to pass is "Theoretical Physics part 4", led by the same teacher, M. Tassev.
Wish me luck :)
When I get back I'll test some more caching engines and will post here the step-by-step result.
