  • Surface Pro 3 first impressions

    - by John Paul Cook
    I traded in my Surface 2 (the trade-in program is now over) and bought a Surface Pro 3 with an i7 processor and 8 GB of ram. I greatly prefer the 3 by 2 aspect ratio of the Surface 3. After only one day of ownership, I’ve decided to purchase a docking station. I have a 7 year old desktop with a quad core Q6600 processor overclocked to 3.0 GHz and 8 GB of ram. It has a Plextor 512 MB SSD as the primary drive. It’s a very capable machine, but it does have a little bit, and I do mean only a little bit,...(read more)

  • What steps/tools/apps are necessary to make local php development on a tablet viable?

    - by Tchalvak
    I do my php web development locally, as in, creating a local instance of a site and then coding it and then pushing code to servers via git/github. I'm considering getting an android tablet or ipad and a wireless keyboard for very mobile development, but I in no way want to go back to the bad old days of using ftp and syncing up code changes on a development server directly, that would be too much of a trade-off to interest me. Is there enough support for the stack to develop php websites locally on a tablet? Anyone had experience trying this sort of thing?

  • Apple soupçonné d'anti-compétitivité avec sa régie publicitaire iAd, une investigation d'antitrust p

    Mise à jour du 14.06.2010 par Katleen Apple soupçonné d'anti-compétitivité avec sa régie publicitaire iAd, une investigation d'antitrust pourrait bientôt être lancée D'après le très sérieux Financial Times, Apple pourrait écoper très bientôt d'une enquête pour Antitrust, afin de déterminer si l'iAd serait trop préjudiciable à des sociétés comme Microsoft ou Google au niveau de la publicité sur iPhone et iPad. Les régulateurs américains s'interessent de près aux agissements de la firme à la pomme. On ne sait pas encore qui de la Federal Trade Commission ou de l'U.S. Department of Justice investiguera l'affaire. Les nouvelles conditions d'utilisation du service pour les développeurs ajo...

  • Apple - Android : HTC contre-attaque en demandant comme Nokia l'interdiction totale d'importation et

    Mise à jour du 13/05/10 Apple ? Android : HTC contre-attaque En demandant comme Nokia l'interdiction totale d'importation et de vente des iPhone, iPad et iPod HTC met ses pas dans ceux de Nokia. Dans l'affaire qui l'oppose à Apple (lire ci-avant), la société a décidé de contre-attaquer en utilisant la méthode forte, tout comme le constructeur finlandais. HTC, principal utilisateur du système d'exploitation mobile de Google, répond à Apple en l'accusant à son tour de violation de brevets. L'affaire sera portée devant la décidément très occupée ITC (U.S. International Trade Commission). Mais HTC ne s'arrête...

  • New! EBS CRM Service Request Templating Online

    - by Oracle_EBS
    In an effort to improve the user experience changes have been made to Service Request (SR) creation process using My Oracle Support (MOS). This change is now online for several high-use CRM products. We aimed to streamline the process by reducing the number of questions, making subsequent questions conditional on previous responses, reducing lists of problem categories, and recommending key documents/evidence which should be supplied to help the Support engineer progress the issue. The process is now divided into three steps: Problem - prompts for a summary of the issue, and what steps have to be performed to re-produce the issue More Information - users will see the biggest change, as they select the ‘Problem Type’, which then presents a series of suggested attachments to upload Severity/Contact - section records who to contact, by what means, and the degree of urgency for the issue. The products included are: · Incentive Compensation · Trade Management · Site Hub · Incentive Compensation Analytics for Oracle Data Integrator · TeleService · Install Base · Quoting · Sales · Field Service · Service Contracts

  • Is it only possible to display 64k vertices on the monitor with 16bit?

    - by Aufziehvogel
    I did the first 3D tutorial over at riemers.net and stumbled upon that my graphic card only supports Shader 2.0 (Reach profile in XNA) which means I can only use Int16 to store the indices (triangle to vertex). This means that I can only store 2^16 = 65536 vertices. Also I read on the internet that you should prefer 16-bit over 32-bit because not all hardware (like mine) does support 32-bit. Yet, I am wondering: Do really all game scenes get along with only so little vertices? I though already faces of people used a lot of polygons (which are made up of vertices?). It’s not relevant for me yet, but I am interested: Do game scenes use only 65536 vertices? Do you use some trade-off to display more (e.g. 64k in GPU buffer rest on RAM) Is there some method to get more into the GPU buffer? I already read on some other posts that there seems to be a limit of 64k per mesh too, so maybe you can compact stuff to meshes?

  • Could it be more efficient for systems in general to do away with Stacks and just use Heap for memory management?

    - by Dark Templar
    It seems to me that everything that can be done with a stack can be done with the heap, but not everything that can be done with the heap can be done with the stack. Is that correct? Then for simplicity's sake, and even if we do lose a little amount of performance with certain workloads, couldn't it be better to just go with one standard (ie, the heap)? Think of the trade-off between modularity and performance. I know that isn't the best way to describe this scenario, but in general it seems that simplicity of understanding and design could be a better option even if there is a potential for better performance.

  • Is there any hard data on the (dis-)advantages of working from home?

    - by peterchen
    Is there any hard data (studies, comparisons, not-just-gut-feel analysis) on the advantages and disadvantages of working from home? My devs asked about e.g. working from home one day per week, the boss doesn't like it for various reasons, some of which I agree with but I think they don't necessarily apply in this case. We have real offices (2..3 people each), distractions are still common. IMO it would be beneficial for focus, and with 1 day / week, there wouldn't be much loss at interaction and communication. In addition it would be a great perk, and saving the commute. Related: Pros and Cons of working Remotely/from Home (interesting points, but no hard facts) [edit] Thanks for all the feedback! To clarify: it's not my decision to make, I agree that there are pro's and con's depending on circumstances, and we are pushing for "just try it". I've asked this specific question because (a) facts are a good addition to thoughts in arguing with an engineer boss, and (b) we, as developers, should build upon facts like every respectable trade.

  • Azure, a Beautiful Color, and So Much More...

    - by KKline
    Windows and SQL Azure Resources Cloud computing is more than just the latest buzz word in the IT trade papers. It is a remarkable paradigm shift with as much potential to "turn over the apple cart" of IT computing as client-server had for the world of mainframe and minicomputers. If you're not spending time to learn about cloud computing, in general, and SQL Azure, in particular, then you're missing the boat in a big way. (Ha! Two big metaphors in one afternoon. My high-school English teacher would...(read more)

  • Apple pourrait écoper d'une plainte d'antitrust, une conséquence de son opposition à Flash ?

    Apple pourrait écoper d'une plainte d'antitrust, une conséquence de son opposition à Flash ? Des informations assez sérieuses circulent et laissent entendre que les autorités américaines s'intéresseraient de près à Apple et envisageraient d'ouvrir une enquête pour abus de position dominante d'ici quelques jours. La Federal Trade Commission et le département de la Justice se disputeraient l'honneur de débuter la procédure. Il est important de ne pas oublier que l'ouverture d'une enquête n'implique pas forcément une condamnation. Comment Apple en est donc arrivé là ? Il y a d'abord eu la modification de sa politique de développement il y a quelques semaines, qui oblige désormais tous les programmeurs pour iPhone/iPad à...

  • Does low latency code sometimes have to be "ugly"?

    - by user997112
    (This is mainly aimed at those who have specific knowledge of low latency systems, to avoid people just answering with unsubstantiated opinions). Do you feel there is a trade-off between writing "nice" object orientated code and writing very fast low latency code? For instance, avoiding virtual functions in C++/the overhead of polymorphism etc- re-writing code which looks nasty, but is very fast etc? It stands to reason- who cares if it looks ugly (so long as its maintainable)- if you need speed, you need speed? I would be interested to hear from people who have worked in such areas.

  • What was your most useful/inspiring computer science course?

    - by MPelletier
    I'm currently taking one course per semester, remotely, in a short 5 year program. My aim is to get better at my trade (programming and analysis, not surprisingly). However, I find that I'm not inspired by my choice of classes for next semester. Maybe I'm being too judgmental. I'd like to know what positive experience was gained from a course in particular. Have ou had a course that turned out to be an idea catalyst?

  • Does Python's shelve module use memory-mapped IO?

    - by Matt Luongo
    Does anyone know if Python's shelve module uses memory-mapped IO? Maybe that question is a bit misleading. I realize that shelve uses an underlying dbm-style module to do its dirty work. What are the chances that the underlying module uses mmap? I'm prototyping a datastore, and while I realize premature optimization is generally frowned upon, this could really help me understand the trade-offs involved in my design.

  • Is there an equivalent of "OPTION(RECOMPILE)" or "WITH RECOMPILE" for an entire connection?

    - by kamens
    I'm curious. Is there any way to prevent SQL query execution plans from being cached for an entire connection's duration? Can I run a command that basically says, "use OPTION(RECOMPILE) for all subsequent commands until I tell you to stop doing so?" I'm acutely aware of all the performance trade-offs here, and I know this is not a step to be taken lightly. However, I'm in a unique situation where this behavior may be advantageous.

I have investigated using gdb and it seems the address of new_Message->Time is equalling to the address of Check->Time. They both are structures of different types I am trying to resolve this issue, because, when parser changes the value of new_Message->Time it manipulates the contents of Check-Time Please do suggest how to solve this problem. I have lost(spent) around 10 hours and counting to resolve this issue, and tons of hair. Soham

  • Matrix "Zigzag" Reordering

    - by fbrereto
    I have an NxM matrix in Matlab that I would like to reorder in similar fashion to the way JPEG reorders its subblock pixels: (referenced from here) I would like the algorithm to be generic such that I can pass in a 2D matrix with any dimensions. I am a C++ programmer by trade and am very tempted to write an old school loop to accomplish this, but I suspect there is a better way to do it in Matlab.
