Setting Up IIS on a Local Network: A Developer's Journey

Today, I embarked on a mission to set up an IIS server on our local network. The primary objective? To create local network versions of our applications for testing and development purposes. Additionally, we're in the process of setting up a CI/CD server to automate our workflows.

However, like many journeys, this one had its share of hurdles. The initial hiccup arose when I realized that .NET was installed before IIS, leading to compatibility issues. Despite attempting to install IIS through the control panel and tweaking .NET components, the problem persisted. "Nada."

After some trial and error, a breakthrough emerged. The solution? Executing dism as an Administrator in the C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 directory:

\> dism /online /enable-feature /featurename:IIS-ASPNET45 /all

And just like that, the clouds parted, and the path forward became clear. With IIS up and running seamlessly, our developers rejoiced, and testing commenced with renewed vigor.

Here's to smooth sailing and happy coding!

Theory of the Genesis of Bam-e

Well, I was pondering of things today. I mean no things? Like nothing? Can't mine like shit, electricity is down almost every 2 hours so I was wondering to myself... How the hell the name "Bam-e" came to be? As a programmer I need to know the origin of it. Like learning new techniques in programming. I need to dissect things. First off, maybe it's a Tagalog term. I think so. And yeah I found it, or did I. I thought the story goes like this. Someone named Dave came to visit Bam. Here it goes... Dave: Hi, Bam ano yang ginawa mo? Bam: Nagluluto Dave: Yay, maganda yan! Masarap ba yan? Bam: Ah wala, hinalo ko lang ang mga natirang ingredients Dave: Ano name nyan? Bam: Hindi ako sure eh! Dave: Patingin nga? Bam: Sure Dave: Pancit lang naman yan Bam eh! Well, if you don't know tagalog. I'm sorry, I'm not the person to talk to. I'm Bisaya and I'm very bad at tutoring Filipino. The hell, I got 79% when I was in high school. I hate the God ...

Elementary Tweaks

Well, I like smaller fonts and I've tried Elementary OS Luna. I like it and I'm searching a way to make the default fonts smaller. Just so I have more spaces to work on, especially when I code and read. Luckily I found a solution to download the tweak and make the fonts/icons custom sizes in Elementary Luna. This is how I did it. Hope you guys find it useful. Run this in your terminal. sudo apt-add-repository ppa:versable/elementary-update sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install elementary-tweaks And if anyone is interested in my setting, here's my screenshot. You can find it in System Settings/Tweaks btw. Thanks everyone!

My Linux Journey: Hello World with .NET

Today marks the beginning of my journey into the world of Linux. As a lifelong Windows user, venturing into a new operating system felt like stepping into uncharted territory. But armed with curiosity and a desire to explore, I took the leap. My first task? A simple "Hello World" program using .NET. With the installation of .NET 8.0 on my Linux machine, I was ready to dive in. I created a new directory for my project, aptly named "helloworld," and ran the following commands: dotnet new console -o helloworld cd helloworld dotnet run And just like that, the words "Hello World" appeared on my terminal screen, a small victory but a significant milestone in my Linux journey. As I reflect on this humble beginning, I am reminded of the endless possibilities that lie ahead. From mastering the command line to exploring the vast ecosystem of open-source tools and technologies, there is much to learn and discover. Join me as I embark on this exciting adventure, one c...
