  - by mawg

• Heap Behavior in C++

  - by wowus

  Is there anything wrong with the optimization of overloading the global operator new to round up all allocations to the next power of two? Theoretically, this would lower fragmentation at the cost of higher worst-case memory consumption, but does the OS already have redundant behavior with this technique, or does it do its best to conserve memory? Basically, given that memory usage isn't as much of an issue as performance, should I do this?

• Could I ever want to access the address zero?

  - by Joel

  The constant 0 is used as the null pointer in C and C++. But as in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2389251/pointer-to-a-specific-fixed-address there seems to be some possible use of assigning fixed addresses. Is there ever any conceivable need, in any system, for whatever low level task, for accessing the address 0? If there is, how is that solved with 0 being the null pointer and all? If not, what makes it certain that there is not such a need?

• Should a data warehouse developer know Powershell scripting?

  - by AEngelsrud

  I am a SQL Server (2005 & 2008) data warehouse developer (SSIS, SSAS, SSRS, SQL) and I am wondering if it would be worth the effort and time to learn Powershell scripting. Are there applicable uses from a development perspective? I understand that from a DBA view there is considerable power in Powershell for administration - does any of this translate to useful commands for a developer? Thanks!

• Is two-finger non-homerow touch-typing for programming acceptable?

  - by codebliss

  I'm currently typing about 90 wpm (from http://speedtest.10-fast-fingers.com/ 90 correct 0 missed) using two fingers and the occasional ring or index. This probably grew from learning to type at an early age, before home-row was presented to me. Is this acceptable? Do people religiously endorse home-row even with low-mistake poking without looking at the keyboard?

  - by jeffkee

  I'm applying the strikeout tag <s>$5,000,000</s> But the line is too low.. .it's about 1/4 from the bottom rather than through the middle. Any way I can modify this so it goes a bit more through the middle?

• turning off sleep mode on kindle?

  - by pfunc

  I'm just getting into kindle development, and I want to know if it is possible to turn off kindle's sleep mode? Or is there a way to wake it up (or a way to program it to wake up) by pushing the buttons on the front, rather than using the power button? Not looking for anything to in-depth here, just point me in the right direction or let me know if it is possible.

• Looking for a fast hash-function.

  - by Julian

  Hello, I'm looking for a special hash-function. Let's say I have a large list of strings, if I order them by their hash-values they should be ordered quasi randomly. The most important point is: it must be super fast. I've tried md5 and sha1 and they're using to much cpu power. Clashes are not a problem. I'm using javascript, so it shouldn't be too complicated to implement.

• What are Erlang processes behind the scenes?

  - by Roger Alsing

  I've got very limited knowledge about Erlang, but as far as I understand, it can spawn "processes" with a very low cost. So I wonder, what are those "processes" behind the scenes? Are they Fibers? Threads? Continuations?

• Entity framework: Need a easy going, clean database migration solution.

  - by user469652

  I'm using entity framework model first development, and I need to do database migration often, The EF database generation power pack doesn't help a lot, because that data migration never worked here. The database migration here I mean, change the model, and then I can update the existing database from the model, but creating a new one. Is there any free of charge tool here invented here yet? Or would this going to be a new feature of next EF release? PS: I love django's ORM.

• In IntelliJ on OS X, how do you clear out all global setting info, licensing etc. (external to any p

  - by kalak451

  I am having some low level issues with IntelliJ on my mac, I really want to just zero everything out and start over. But even after removing the application and re-installing it, IntelliJ still remembers things like what the last project was, what licensing key to use etc. Where is this information stored? And what is the best way to clear it out?

• Is there any way for a win2k8 scheduled task to have normal priority IO?

  - by Jason Mathison

  I have a scheduled task that is very IO intensive (deleting hundreds of thousands of files). For disk space reasons, this job has to be performed reasonably quickly. On win2k8, scheduled tasks always have a low IO priority. Raising the priority of the process did not change the IO priority. Is there any way to get a scheduled task to have a normal IO priority?

• What's the big deal with brute force on hashes like MD5

  - by Jan Kuboschek

  I just spent some time reading http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2768248/is-md5-really-that-bad (I highly recommend!). In it, it talks about hash collisions. Maybe I'm missing something here, but can't you just encrypt your password using, say, MD5 and then, say, SHA-1 (or any other, doesn't matter.) Wouldn't this increase the processing power required to brute-force the hash and reduce the possibility of collision?

• How to prevent components from rendering in Flex

  - by Tam

  Is there a way to prevent a component from rendering in Flex (to save memory or processing power)? I tried doing something like: <components:AddNewItemGroup id="addItemGroup" visible="false" enabled="false" horizontalCenter="0" bottom="0" /> I noticed that the component gets rendered but it's just not visible or functional.

  It is well-accepted that we should all learn something new every six months. But what should top the list for 2009? What new things should we learn this year that appear to have real staying power? (Answers do not have to be limited to languages.)

• crt0.o and crt1.o -- What's the difference?

  - by Earlz

  Hello, recently I've been trying to debug some low level work and I could not find the crt0.S for the compiler(avr-gcc) but I did find a crt1.S (and the same with the corresponding .o files) What is the difference between these two files? Is crt1 something completely different or what? They both seem to have to do with something for bootstrapping(setting up stack frame and such), but why the distinction?

• Joomla: comments for own componet

  - by vitperov

  I have written my own Jommla component for displaying particular information (for example car info: engine power, year and etc.). Now I want to add a comments to my component. Implementing comments by my own is too hard and it's not very safe. Maybe someone had and experience integrating some existing joomla component for an own component? Update: Maybe I can copy-paste code of some existing joomla comments component in my own component? Does somebody tried to do this?

• Is there an Javascript event for when a the page is pushed into the background?

  - by Georg

  I remember having used such an event, but I can't remember the name. The specific task I'm trying to accomplish is to stop my slideshow when the browser window isn't in the foreground. I'm fading the different images with jQuery, which uses quite some CPU power. Is there an event that tells me, when the user switches to another application / page.

• Two imageViews vs one imageView and a canvas

  - by user3009842

  I have a bitmap and I want to scale it up to fill an ImageView and overlay the unscaled version of the bitmap on top. Which would be cheaper (in terms of memory and processor usage)? Using two ImageViews, one for each version of the bitmap Using a canvas and drawing on the singular bitmap, using one ImageView I saw this question about ImageView vs Canvas, but it doesn't address memory/processor concerns. My intuition says two ImageViews may use more RAM, while using a canvas would use more processing power while the drawing occurs.
