  • How important is the programming language when you choose a new job?

    - by Luhmann
    We are currently hiring at the company where I work, and here the codebase is in VB.Net. We are worried that we miss out on a lot of brilliant programmers, who would never ever consider working with VB.Net. My own background is Java and C#, and I was somewhat sceptical as to whether it would work out with VB, as - to be honest - i didn't care much for VB. After a month or so, I was completely fluent in VB, and a few months later i discovered to my surprise, that I actually like VB. I still code my free time projects in C# and Boo though. So my question is firstly, how important is language for you, when you choose a new programming job? Lets say if its a great company, salary is good, and generally an attractive work-place. Would you say no to the perfect job, if the language wasn't your preferred dialect? VB or C# is one thing, but how about Java or C# etc. Secondly if the best developers won't join your company because of your language or platform, would you consider changing, to get the right people?

  • Unable to execute gs program: No such file or directory

    - by Imran
    I've setup CUPS + Avahi on my NAS box in order to enable AirPrint with my existing network printer. Printing a test page via CUPS and printing us lp works fine, and I am able to see my printer on the printer list on my iOS device. However when sending a print job from my iOS device the printer status is set to paused and doesnt print anything. When checking the error_logs I have found this line which I believe is causing the error. D [04/Sep/2012:03:20:25 +0100] [Job 11] Started filter gs (PID 7485) D [04/Sep/2012:03:20:25 +0100] [Job 11] Started filter pstops (PID 7486) D [04/Sep/2012:03:20:25 +0100] [Job 11] Set job-printer-state-message to "Unable to execute gs program: No such file or directory", current level=ERROR D [04/Sep/2012:03:20:25 +0100] [Job 11] PID 7485 (gs) stopped with status 1!

  • Bacula windows client could not connect to Bacula director

    - by pr0f-r00t
    I have a Bacula server on my Linux Debian squeeze host (Bacula version 5.0.2) and a Bacula client on Windows XP SP3. On my network each client can see each other, can share files and can ping. On my local server I could run bconsole and the server responds but when I run bconsole or bat on my windows client the server does not respond. Here are my configuration files: bacula-dir.conf: # # Default Bacula Director Configuration file # # The only thing that MUST be changed is to add one or more # file or directory names in the Include directive of the # FileSet resource. # # For Bacula release 5.0.2 (28 April 2010) -- debian squeeze/sid # # You might also want to change the default email address # from root to your address.

  • Hadoop streaming with Python and python subprocess

    - by Ganesh
    I have established a basic hadoop master slave cluster setup and able to run mapreduce programs (including python) on the cluster. Now I am trying to run a python code which accesses a C binary and so I am using the subprocess module. I am able to use the hadoop streaming for a normal python code but when I include the subprocess module to access a binary, the job is getting failed. As you can see in the below logs, the hello executable is recognised to be used for the packaging, but still not able to run the code. . . packageJobJar: [/tmp/hello/hello, /app/hadoop/tmp/hadoop-unjar5030080067721998885/] [] /tmp/streamjob7446402517274720868.jar tmpDir=null JarBuilder.addNamedStream hello . . 12/03/07 22:31:32 INFO mapred.FileInputFormat: Total input paths to process : 1 12/03/07 22:31:32 INFO streaming.StreamJob: getLocalDirs(): [/app/hadoop/tmp/mapred/local] 12/03/07 22:31:32 INFO streaming.StreamJob: Running job: job_201203062329_0057 12/03/07 22:31:32 INFO streaming.StreamJob: To kill this job, run: 12/03/07 22:31:32 INFO streaming.StreamJob: /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../bin/hadoop job -Dmapred.job.tracker=master:54311 -kill job_201203062329_0057 12/03/07 22:31:32 INFO streaming.StreamJob: Tracking URL: http://master:50030/jobdetails.jsp?jobid=job_201203062329_0057 12/03/07 22:31:33 INFO streaming.StreamJob: map 0% reduce 0% 12/03/07 22:32:05 INFO streaming.StreamJob: map 100% reduce 100% 12/03/07 22:32:05 INFO streaming.StreamJob: To kill this job, run: 12/03/07 22:32:05 INFO streaming.StreamJob: /usr/local/hadoop/bin/../bin/hadoop job -Dmapred.job.tracker=master:54311 -kill job_201203062329_0057 12/03/07 22:32:05 INFO streaming.StreamJob: Tracking URL: http://master:50030/jobdetails.jsp?jobid=job_201203062329_0057 12/03/07 22:32:05 ERROR streaming.StreamJob: Job not Successful! 12/03/07 22:32:05 INFO streaming.StreamJob: killJob...

  • Loading a UITableView From A Nib

    - by Garry
    Hi, I keep getting a crash when loading a UITableView. I am trying to use a cell defined in a nib file. I have an IBOutlet defined in the view controller header file: UITableViewCell *jobCell; @property (nonatomic, assign) IBOutlet UITableViewCell *jobCell; This is synthesised in the implementation file. I have a UITableViewCell created in IB and set it's identifier to JobCell. Here is the cellForRowAtIndexPath method: - (UITableViewCell *)tableView:(UITableView *)tableView cellForRowAtIndexPath:(NSIndexPath *)indexPath { static NSString *cellIdentifier = @"JobCell"; UITableViewCell *cell = [tableView dequeueReusableCellWithIdentifier:cellIdentifier]; if (cell == nil) { [[NSBundle mainBundle] loadNibNamed:@"JobsRootViewController" owner:self options:nil]; cell = jobCell; self.jobCell = nil; } // Get this job Job *job = [fetchedResultsController objectAtIndexPath:indexPath]; // Job title UILabel *jobTitle; jobTitle = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:tagJobTitle]; jobTitle.text = job.title; // Job due date UILabel *dueDate; dueDate = (UILabel *)[cell viewWithTag:tagJobDueDate]; dueDate.text = [self.dateFormatter stringFromDate:job.dueDate]; // Notes icon UIImageView *notesImageView; notesImageView = (UIImageView *)[cell viewWithTag:tagNotesImageView]; if ([job.notes length] > 0) { // This job has a note attached to it - show the notes icon notesImageView.hidden = NO; } else { // Hide the notes icon notesImageView.hidden = YES; } // Job completed button // Return the cell return cell; } When I run the app - I get a hard crash and the console reports the following: objc[1291]: FREED(id): message style sent to freed object=0x4046400 I have hooked up all the outlets in IB correctly. What is the issue? Thanks,

  • How would you explain your job to a 5-year old?

    - by Canavar
    Sometimes it's difficult to define programming to people. Especially too old or too young people can not understand what I do to earn money. They think that I repair computers, or they want to think that I (as an engineer) build computers at work. :) It's really hard to tell people that you produce something they can't touch. Here is a funny question, how would you explain your job to a 5-year-old?

  • Having a problem displaying data from last inserted data

    - by Gideon
    I'm designing a staff rota planner....have three tables Staff (Staff details), Event (Event details), and Job (JobId, JobDate, EventId (fk), StaffId (fk)). I need to display the last inserted job detail with the staff name. I've been at it for couple of hours and getting nowhere. Thanks for the help in advance. My code is the following: $eventId = $_POST['eventid']; $selectBox = $_POST['selectbox']; $timePeriod = $_POST['time']; $selectedDate = $_POST['date']; $count = count($selectBox); //constructing the staff selection if (empty($selectBox)) { echo "<p>You didn't select any member of staff to be assigned."; echo "<p><input type='button' value='Go Back' onClick='history.go(-1)'>"; } else { echo "<p> You selected ".$count. " staff for this show."; for ($i=0;$i<$count;$i++) { $selectId = $selectBox[$i]; //insert the details into the Job table in the database $insertJob = "INSERT INTO Job (JobDate, TimePeriod, EventId, StaffId) VALUES ('".$selectedDate."', '".$timePeriod."', ".$eventId.", ".$selectId.")"; $exeinsertJob = mysql_query($insertJob) or die (mysql_error()); } } //display the inserted job details $insertedlist = "SELECT Job.JobId, Staff.LastName, Staff.FirstName, Job.JobDate, Job.TimePeriod FROM Staff, Job WHERE Job.StaffId = Staff.StaffId AND Job.EventId = $eventId AND Job.JobDate = ".$selectedDate; $exeinsertlist = mysql_query($insertedlist) or die (mysql_error()); if ($exeinsertlist) { echo "<p><table cellspacing='1' cellpadding='3'>"; echo "<tr><th colspan=5> ".$eventname."</th></tr>"; echo "<tr><th>Job Id</th><th>Last Name</th> <th>First Name </th><th>Date</th><th>Hours</th></tr>"; while ($joblistarray = mysql_fetch_array($exeinsertlist)) { echo "<tr><td align=center>".$joblistarray['JobId']." </td><td align=center>".$joblistarray['LastName']."</td><td align=center>".$joblistarray['FirstName']." </td><td align=center>".$joblistarray['JobDate']." </td><td align=center>".$joblistarray['TimePeriod']."</td></tr>"; } echo "</table>"; echo "<h3><a href=AssignStaff.php>Add More Staff?</a></h3>"; } else { echo "The Job list can not be displayed at this time.

  • How to handle recurring dates (dates only) in .NET?

    - by Wayne M
    I am trying to figure out a good way to handle recurring events in .NET, specifically for an ASP.NET MVC application. The idea is that a user can create an event and specify that the event can occur repeatedly after a specific interval (e.g. "every two weeks", "once a month" and so on). What would be the best way to tackle this? My brainstorming right now is to have two tables: Job and RecurringJob. Job is the "master" record and has the description of the job as well a key to what customer it's for, while RecurringJob links back to Job and has additional info on what the occurrence frequency is (e.g. 1 for "once a month") as well as the timespan (e.g. "Weekly", "Monthly"). The issue is how to determine and set the next occurrence of the job since this will have to be something that's done regularly. I've seen two trains of thought with this: This logic should either be stored in a database column and periodically updated, or calculated on the fly in the code. Any thoughts or suggestions on tackling this? Edit: this is for a subscription based web app I'm creating to let service businesses schedule their common recurring jobs easily and track their customers. So a typical use might be to create a "Cut lawn" job for Mr Smith that occurs every month The exact date isn't important - it's the ability for the customer to see that Mr Smith gets his lawn cut every month and followup with him about it. Let me rephrase the above to better convey my idea. A sample use case for the application might be as follows: User pulls up the customer record for John Smith and clicks the Add Job link. The user fills out the form to create a job with a name of "Cut lawn", a start date of 11/15/2009, and selects a checkbox indicating that this job continually occurs. The user is presented with a secondary screen asking for the job frequency. The user indicates (haven't decided how at this point - let's assume select lists) that the job occurs once a month. User clicks save. Now, when the user views the record for John Smith, they can see that he has a job, "Cut lawn", that occurs every month starting from 11/15/2009. On the main dashboard when it's one week prior to the assumed start date, the user sees the job displayed with an indicator such as "12/15/2009 - Cut lawn (John Smith)". A week before the due date someone from the company calls him up to schedule and he says he's going to be out of town until 1/1/2010, so he wants his appointment rescheduled for that date. Our user can change the date for the job to be 1/1/2010, and now the recurrence will start one month from that date (e.g. next time will be 2/1/2010). The idea behind this is that the app is targeting businesses like lawn care, plumbers, carpet cleaners and the like where the exact date isn't as important (because it can and will change as people are busy), the key thing is to give the business an indicator that Mr. Smith's monthly service is coming up, and someone should give him a call to determine when exactly it can be scheduled for. In effect give these businesses a way to track repeat business and know when it's time to followup with a customer.

  • Why do we have reinterpret_cast in C++ when two chained static_cast can do it's job?

    - by Nawaz
    Say I want to cast A* to char* and vice-versa, we have two choices (I mean, many of us think we've two choices, because both seems to work! Hence the confusion!): struct A { int age; char name[128]; }; A a; char *buffer = static_cast<char*>(static_cast<void*>(&a)); //choice 1 char *buffer = reinterpret_cast<char*>(&a); //choice 2 Both work fine. //convert back A *pA = static_cast<A*>(static_cast<void*>(buffer)); //choice 1 A *pA = reinterpret_cast<A*>(buffer); //choice 2 Even this works fine! So why do we have reinterpret_cast in C++ when two chained static_cast can do it's job? Some of you might think this topic is a duplicate of the previous topics such as listed at the bottom of this post, but it's not. Those topics discuss only theoretically, but none of them gives even a single example demonstrating why reintepret_cast is really needed, and two static_cast would surely fail. I agree, one static_cast would fail. But how about two? If the syntax of two chained static_cast looks cumbersome, then we can write a function template to make it more programmer-friendly: template<class To, class From> To any_cast(From v) { return static_cast<To>(static_cast<void*>(v)); } And then we can use this, as: char *buffer = any_cast<char*>(&a); //choice 1 char *buffer = reinterpret_cast<char*>(&a); //choice 2 //convert back A *pA = any_cast<A*>(buffer); //choice 1 A *pA = reinterpret_cast<A*>(buffer); //choice 2 Also, see this situation where any_cast can be useful: Proper casting for fstream read and write member functions. So my question basically is, Why do we have reinterpret_cast in C++? Please show me even a single example where two chained static_cast would surely fail to do the same job? Which cast to use; static_cast or reinterpret_cast? Cast from Void* to TYPE* : static_cast or reinterpret_cast

  • Global variables in hadoop.

    - by Deepak Konidena
    Hi, My program follows a iterative map/reduce approach. And it needs to stop if certain conditions are met. Is there anyway i can set a global variable that can be distributed across all map/reduce tasks and check if the global variable reaches the condition for completion. Something like this. While(Condition != true){ Configuration conf = getConf(); Job job = new Job(conf, "Dijkstra Graph Search"); job.setJarByClass(GraphSearch.class); job.setMapperClass(DijkstraMap.class); job.setReducerClass(DijkstraReduce.class); job.setOutputKeyClass(IntWritable.class); job.setOutputValueClass(Text.class); } Where condition is a global variable that is modified during/after each map/reduce execution.

  • What's the Erlang/Haskell job market like in the U.S.?

    - by Krystof
    I've heard that Telecoms are the big source of Erlang jobs but I'm not sure how much of a market there is. How likely is it that someone could find a job in Erlang/Haskell if they decided to learn it? In my case I have a lot of programming experience in Java but am tired of Java and want to try something different.

  • Should I work with multiple recruiters for a job search or just pick one?

    - by BuckeyeSoftwareGuy
    So I posted my resume on dice and monster last night and today I've received 5 voicemails and about 6 emails from different recruiters wanting to talk to me. What's the best way to handle this situation. I want to reply to them all of course as I'm very interested in making an imminent job change. Is there some sort of rule of thumb here? It seems to me they would want to work with me exclusively if they could. I don't want to limit my options though..
