FYI: It is not a tutorial, it is a blog. It was written, as you can see, 
in 2009 -- if it were to still work, it would be a big surprise.

For all these things, it is always best to check a project reproducing 
your problem into GitHub, together with a README that describes the 
problem so that someone can reproduce it. Then send a link to the GitHub 
repo here.
