No-Frills LII

by Pezi 7. April 2010 06:25

LII is an entity that knows nothing to start with, but learns about how to form sentences as you talk to it.  This can lead to highly amusing covnersations, that become eerily more human-like the more you teach it.  Have a play!

LII will ignore some punctuation for the time being. Try to make sure you spell stuff correctly otherwise it will think you are using new words.

(disclaimer: I knocked the Silveright console together in 10 minutes, and no it is not pretty, I will tart it up a bit later!)

Firebug for XAML anyone?

Sad is the time when all those web-related layout CSS and HTML issues come headlong together with desktop applications, but for anyone who has used XAML (or extensible camels as I like to call it/them) with WPF / .NET 3.5 will know exactly what I mean.

However all is not lost, no need to re-compile your project 100 times to try and move an arrow or change the colour of a label which after 2 hours transpires it is being modified by 6 different styles and properties from all over the place.... Snoop to the resuce!  No longer will you get the hump with those camels (as much!)

DAMN THOSE CAMELS! http://www.blois.us/Snoop/

This is essentially firebug for WPF / Camels.  Complete with inspect button, full camel tree view, style heirachy and the ability to add/modify stuff on the fly.  And it's open source Cool

It's sad this should be required but 'tis the way of the future apparently !
