Storage administrators would have to do this, but by some weird tradition, no matter what level of technology, if it says "Oracle" in it, IT Managers will immediately associate this with a task for the DBA. Not the case,…

For example direct-x made assembler nearly abandoned for game programming in the end of XX century and JQuery extremely simplified ajax web…
Many big data application implementations seem to begin with an existing data warehouse, one or more new high-volume data streams, and some specialized hardware and software. The data storage issue is often accommodated by installing a proprietary hardware appliance that can store huge amounts of data while providing…
I’m trying to create a date in the BC era, but failing pretty hard. The following returns ‘4713’ as the year, instead of ‘-4712’:
NSCalendar *calendar = [[NSCalendar alloc] initWithCalendarIdentifier:NSGregorianCalendar];

So far Google'ing has shown me old 2.4 based ipchains ones. The netfilter…

Or it simply depends on how one language runs on the machine?

I had this question because one day I told one of my friend that recursion isn't any amazing…

The earliest definitions I learnt at school pertained to nouns and verbs. Nouns, my teacher said, indicated names of people, things and places. Verbs, the stern lady said, are “action words”. They indicated motion. The idea for this blog filtered in when I applied these definitions to the…
