• Distributions and hashes

  - by Don Mackenzie

  Has anyone ever had an incidence of downloading software from a genuine site, where an MD5 or SHA series hash for the download is also supplied and then discovered that the hash calculated from the downloaded artifact doesn't match the published hash? I understand the theory but am curious how prevalent the problem is. Many software publishers seem to discount the threat.

• Updating protected attributes using update_all

  - by Jack

  Since you cannot use the normal 'update' and 'update_attribute' methods from ActiveRecord to update a protected attribute, is the following the best way to update an attribute for a single user? User.update_all("admin = true","id = 1") I'm guessing this doesn't lie in the 'best practice' category, so I'm just curious if there is a more appropriate way.

• Have PL/SQL Outputs in Real Time.

  - by martilyo

  Is it possible to have Outputs from PL/SQL in real time? I have a pretty huge package that runs for more than an hour and I'd like to see where the package is at a particular time. Anyways, I currently do this with a log table, which gets filled up with hundreds of log descriptions per run, I'm just curious if this is possible. Thanks!

• If I allocate memory in one thread in C++ can I de-allocate it in another

  - by Shane MacLaughlin

  If I allocate memory in one thread in C++ (either new or malloc) can I de-allocate it in another, or must both occur in the same thread? Ideally, I'd like to avoid this in the first place, but I'm curious to know is it legal, illegal or implementation dependent. Edit: The compilers I'm currently using include VS2003, VS2008 and Embedded C++ 4.0, targetting XP, Vista, Windows 7 and various flavours of Windows CE / PocketPC & Mobile. So basically all Microsoft but across an array of esoteric platforms.

• Why BASIC had numbered lines?

  - by Helltone

  I'm curious about why early versions of the BASIC programming language had line numbering like in: 42 PRINT "Hello world!" The text editors back then had no line numbering?

• What are the best ways to store Graphs in persistent storage

  - by nicoslepicos

  I am wondering what the best ways to store graphs in persistent storage are, for later analysis, search, clustering, etc. I see neo4j being an option, I am curious if there are also other graph databases available. Does anyone have any insights into how larger social networks store their graph based data (or other sites that require the storage of graph like models, e.g. RDF). What about options like Cassandra, or MySQL?

• Where to wire up events?

  - by Jeffrey Cameron

  I'm using Ninject (1.5 ... soon to be 2) and I'm curious how other people use Ninject or other IoC containers to help wire up events to objects? It seems to me in my code that I'm doing it herky-jerky all over the place and would love some advice on how to clean it up a bit.

• Invisible sprites still take up a lot in memory

  - by numerical25

  Just curious, if I have a sprite on the stage with the alpha set to 0 does that take up just as much memory as a sprite that is visible? I imagine it does because it draws the sprite to the stage and then it has to set the alpha to zero. It may seem like a stupid question but I just wanted to verify.

• multiple validation errors showing up for single property

  - by Dave K

  i'm often getting multiple errors showing up for an individual property, when I'd like them to be prioritized, as in, if Required is satisfied, check StringLength, but if Required fails, show that message only. I'm getting inconsistent behavior here, and I'm curious as to how the framework determines this priority? has anyone else had problems with this? Thanks!

• Delay garbage collection?

  - by GeoffreyF67

  I'm using chrome (the dev version for my mac). I was looking at the timeline for my page loading and I saw that there is a 150ms delay due to some garbage collection taking place while loading the page. http://cl.ly/cce10619c698a5b276e2 It's the yellow line. I was curious if there's any way to stop this, delay it, whatever so I get the page to load faster? G-Man

• In C/C++ what's the simplest way to reverse the order of bits in a byte?

  - by nathan

  While there are multiple ways to reverse bit order in a byte, I'm curious as to what is the "simplest" for a developer to implement. And by reversing I mean: 1110 -> 0111 0010 -> 0100 This is similar to, but not a duplicate of this PHP question.

• Need a good way to store data in a DB from a table on a webpage that can have N columns.

  - by Abe Miessler

  Users need to be able to add a specific type of column to an otherwise static table on my web page and then save the information they enter in there to the database. I've been told that in reality they will almost never go over 5 columns but I would rather support N. The columns will all be of the same datatype. My first thought was to have an XML column with the values from all added columns in there but I was curious if anyone else had come up with a better solution. Suggestions?

• why do I have to commit explicitly when doing an UPDATE

  - by Tshepang

  Here's my code: import cx_Oracle conn = cx_Oracle.connect(usr, pwd, url) cursor = conn.cursor() cursor.execute("UPDATE SO SET STATUS='PE' WHERE ID='100'") conn.commit() If I remove the conn.commit(), the table isn't updated. But for select statements, I don't need that conn.commit(). I'm curious why?

• Open-source: licence header on each source file of a project or a single LICENCE.txt file?

  - by systempuntoout

  If i publish an open-source project, is it enough to add a LICENCE.txt file to the package or do i need to copy and paste it on top of every project's source file? On public repository like github or google code i saw mixed things and i'm curious on how this legal aspect should be handled correctly.

• Unsigned Integer

  - by viswanathan

  I was curious to know what would happen if i assign a negative value to an unsigned variable. The code will look somewhat like this. unsigned int nVal = 0; nVal = -5; It didnt give me any compiler error. When i ran the nVal was having strange value. Could it be that some 2's complement value gets assigned to nVal.

• jQuery and PHP suggested answers

  - by Samir Ghobril

  Hey guys, there is a form where the user select some of his friends and I'm curious on how I can implement a list that searches simultaneously while the user is typing a friend's name and when he selects the name the name is written in the text box(jQuery). And if the user wants to select more than one friend, when I'm inserting the names in the database, how can I separate the names that are written in one input field?

• Is it possible to use multiple languages in .NET resource files?

  - by Gabe Brown

  We’ve got an interesting requirement that we’ll want to support multiple languages at runtime since we’re a service. If a user talks to us using Japanese or English, we’ll want to respond in the appropriate language. FxCop likes us to store our strings in resource files, but I was curious to know if there was an integrated way to select resource string at runtime without having to do it manually. Bottom Line: We need to be able to support multiple languages in a single binary. :)

• What is the appropriate way to set a VB StringBuilder to an empty string?

  - by Wayne Werner

  I'm using VB's StringBuilder, and I was curious what is considered "best practice" for emptying the builder/setting it to a new string. Would it be something like this: Dim str As New System.Text.StringBuilder() str.Append("Some string to remove") str = new System.Text.StringBuilder() str.Append("Ahh, fresh new text!") or is there a "Better" way? Thanks

• On what platform did these popular programming languages originate?

  - by speciousfool

  Perhaps you know the story of HTTP and HTML being developed on a NeXT computer. I am curious which platform served as the first home for these programming languages: Ada C C++ C# D Erlang Fortran Haskell Java Javascript Lisp Logo MATLAB ML Perl PHP Prolog Python R Ruby Scheme SQL Smalltalk I thought it might be interesting to reflect on how the machine and operating environment lead to different design decisions. Or to see if some architecture or operating system variant was particularly fruitful for programming language development. A question for the historians among us.
