I'm writing a book on multicore programming using .NET 4 and I'm curious to know what parts of multicore programming people have found difficult to grok or anticipate being difficult to grok?
I am curious about how do you protect your software against cracking, hacking etc.
Do you employ some kind of serial number check? Hardware keys?
Do you use any third-party solutions?
How do you go about solving licensing issues? (e.g. managing floating licenses)
EDIT: I'm not talking any open source, but strictly commercial software distribution...
I am using a custom database (MongoDB) with TG 2.1 and i am wondering where the proper place to store the PyMongo connection/database instances would be?
Eg, at the moment they are getting created inside of my inherited instance of AppConfig. Is there a standard location to store this? Would shoving the variables into the project.model.__init__ be the best location, given that under SQLAlchemy, the database seems to commonly be retrieved via:
from project.model import DBSession, metadata
Anyway, just curious what the best practice is.
As far as I know, JavaScript is a general purpose language but mostly it is used for Web Applications.
I am curious to know whether anyone is using JavaScript for non-Web apps. Also, are there any tools available for non-Web application development?
Hi guys:
I am a noivce at JQuery.
I'm curious about if there is any plug-in or libraries to help developers validate whether any input value over a set of form elements is not entered (empty string).
I can just think of using a function to achieve this feature. Any better idea?
Thanks.
Given an environment object e:
> e
<environment: 0x10f0a6e98>
> class(e)
[1] "environment"
How do you access the variables inside the environment?
Just in case you're curious, I have found myself with this environment object. I didn't make it, a package in Bioconductor made it. You can make it, too, using these commands:
library('GEOquery')
eset <- getGEO("GSE4142")[[1]]
e <- assayData(eset)
I notice several well-known projects in java that were ported to C# .NET. Some examples:
Hibernate - NHibernate
JUnit -- NUnit
Ant -- NAnt
Lucene -- Lucene.Net, NLucene
iText -- iTextSharp
log4j -- log4net
Quartz -- Quartz.NET
I was curious about the reverse situation: what are the notable .NET projects that have been ported to the java world?
I looked at the list of projects at http://csharp-source.net but didn't see any obvious ones.
The sample code in this article for creating a PDF from a Word doc works great if you have word installed on the machine.

I'm curious if it is possible to do this without having to install Word.
I have done a little django development but it has all been in a text editor. I was curious what more advanced development tools others are using in their django development. I am used to using Visual Studio for development and really like the intellisense, code completion, and file organization it provides and would like to find something (or a combination of tools) that would provide some of this in the django/python environment.
What is the best way to download an mp3 file in java (on Android sdk)?
http://developer.android.com/reference/java/net/package-summary.html
Should I be using sockets? If so - what kind of "Stream" reader should I use?
I have also read something about "intents" - is this something that is applicable here?
I am also curious as to what should one do if connection gets interrupted - can I resume the download somehow or restart it?
Any tips?
Hi everybody
What is best software for creating models , textures etc... for iphone development.
From simplest to more complex programs.
First thing that comes to my mind is blender , but I'm curious what everybody else is using and their opinions.
I know this is a silly question :) But I am curious :)
How much should a full-time web developer with about 2 years experience be making in Los Angeles, CA area? Work mainly consists of coding sites in php, mysql with some jquery, ajax stuff .. and ofc html/css.
Also, what is a good language/technology to learn to increase salary for next job?? Python? Ruby? .NET?
Seeing this post about floating point errors on slashdot, I got curious what
other kind of solutions exist to deal with such kind of floating point rounding errors. So what was the floating point bug you learned most from, and what did you learn from it?
Whenever I come across a cute website, I am always curious to know which web framework was used by its developers?
Being a novice in web development, a look at the page source doesn't give any clue.
Any way(s) to get this information? If possible, may be with a bit of Ruby magic, I can figure out things like: which is the most/least used framework for my favorite sites, audio/video heavy sites, etc.
I run Xcode on both my laptop and desktop. I'm constantly tweaking my setup with regards to key bindings.
Rather than try to get both configurations identical by hand, is there any way to create the configuration on one computer and then share it via dropbox (for example) for the other to use? Perhaps by symlinking the laptop's configuration file to one stored on dropbox?
Very curious how others handle this situation.
Currently im working on a research paper about sql-injection with RFID tags and Im curious if it is possible to create a database trigger with an sql injections if stacked queries are disabled. If stacked queries are enabled, of course it is easy (assuming you know the table layout), but what if they're disabled for security reasons.
I'm just curious if serious changes to the system were necessary to achieve this; after all, it needed my password during the setup. Also, I may use it in some projects if its not too much of a hack.
Hello recently I've been a bit curious and wanted to make a browser. I'd like to use an existing engine though such as Gecko or Webkit. Are there any resources on the web for how to get started and any examples? Language choice doesn't really matter(but no VB please. That was the only example code I found)
As I get closer to releasing my first public iPhone app I'm concerned about catching crashes in the field. I'm curious to hear how others have gone about this.
I'm not sure what's possible outside of the debugger. Is all lost with an EXC_BAD_ACCESS or can I still catch it and get something useful into a log? Is the program main() the spot to put a @try/@catch?
Hi All,
I have a page on which there is a link search.
onclicking search i open a LIGHTBOX where i get a textfield and Search button.
Now i want when i enter keyword in textfield and enter on submit button a result should be shown in a lighbox only.
is it possible w/o ajax or i have to use ajax form only.
just curious why we used get request instead of post request for Search functionality.
I have found and installed the visual basic mode for emacs. It seems to be loading on emacs startup and the VB mode loads when I open a *.bas file. The code is not highlighted at all, however.
I'm using Emacs23, tried it with 21 and saw no difference.
Background for the curious: I am rewriting a set of codes from VB to Python. The syntax highlighting will make it much easier for me to see what's going on.
I had read somewhere about one specific feature that is present in awk but not in Perl. I have failed in locating it again.
I would appreciate it if anyone here can point it out.
This might be a useless trivia, but I am still curious to know.
This question just really interested me, so I got curious to know what the community thinks. What do you guys think is the most difficult type of software to write? I write government software and have found it's pretty hair-pulling, but I'm sure there are far worse things out there.
