Pro geek and automation - continued
At the request of his colleague AlexDAY - the hero of the previous post , I publish his explanations. He himself can not yet (just sent him an invite, and he does not have enough karma to write here).
Hello dear community members! Almost by chance I came across this link to the article and in the main character (oh miracle !!) I recognized myself. I'm just the same - crazy, geek, pervert, man, engineer, Hindu :)
Allow me to tell you the background to the creation of this “warning system”. The driving force behind its creation was only part of laziness, and the main one - of course, ordinary human greed.
So, back in 2007, a certain group, also apparently “creative” people, decided to put an additional keyboard and receiver of bank cards on top of these at the VTB ATM located near our office. The following weekend, a number of my colleagues lost money, which was withdrawn in Madrid. The bank was American and the refund was made fairly quickly, thus “the spoons were found, but the unpleasant aftertaste remained”. In Internet banking, there was only the possibility of e-mail notifications about withdrawals, so I had a crazy idea to write a function in Outlook that triggers an e-mail and sends a text message to my phone. Currently, you can use Mail.ru or an additional add-on to Outlook 2007 for this. Unfortunately, at the time, this was not the case.
')
I got down to business and wrote a script that sends SMS for MTS (my mobile operator), and then decided to do the same for Beeline and MegaFon. By the way, now it all works for me through GoogleCalendar - not as described here through the ZendFramework library, but for a simple VBScript through a Microsoft.XMLHTTP COM object.
But in general, that's all.
We hope that the author more than once will delight us with useful articles.
