  • Is what GitHub is doing here a good practice?

    - by orokusaki
    If you view this URL, you'll see that GitHub is posting all sorts of technical information. Is this a good practice so that users can email info to you about bugs, etc? http://waitdownload.github.com/cheetahtemplate-cheetah-v2.4.2-0-gd20b523.zip It's at least a good design for an error page.

  • How much one can trust the information published in the wikipedia? [closed]

    - by AKN
    Wikipedia has answers for many question almost in all categories. Let it be Technical Sports Personalities Important events (this day, that day) Scientific terms etc... I know the source of contents are from volunteers (Please correct me if I'm wrong here). But what measures they have to ensure that contents are properly written. Even if they have admin/moderator and all that, they may not be experts in all areas. So how do they validate the appropriateness of the content?

  • Cryptic C++ "thing" (function pointer)

    - by m00st
    What is this syntax for in C++? Can someone point me to the technical term so I can see if I find anything in my text? At first I thought it was a prototype but then the = and (*fn) threw me off... Here is my example: void (*fn) (int&,int&) = x;

  • how to convince website users to use openid

    - by isolatedIterator
    Perhaps this isn't the best forum for this question. If so, would one of the other child sites be more suitable? I am wondering how to overcome the learning curve of convincing a non-technical bunch of users how and what open id is. how do you convince users that it is a good thing and that they want to use it?

  • C#, Java, or SharePoint to learn

    - by bmw0128
    I know a bit of each of these, but none enough to pass technical phone screens/interviews. I am looking for a job, and I'll take anything, almost anywhere (in the US). Any opinions on which I should take on and do a deep dive? I do not which technology, I am wondering if one is better than the other when trying to get a job, more in the entry/mid level skill level. I am currently in the Bay Area, but will go anywhere.

  • Does knowing a Natural Language well help with Programming?

    - by Earlz
    We all hear that math at least helps a little bit with programming. My question though, does English or other natural language skills help with programming? I know it has to help with technical documentation, but what about actual programming? Are certain constructs in a programming language also there in natural languages? Does knowing how to write a 20 page research paper help with writing a 20k loc programming project?

  • Why is J2EE scalable?

    - by py213py
    I heard from various sources that J2EE is highly scalable, but to me it seems that you could never scale a J2EE application to the level of the google search engine or any other large website. I would like to hear the technical reasons why it is so scalable.

  • Why do some APIs provide mostly interfaces, not classes?

    - by Lord Torgamus
    Some Java APIs provide a large number of interfaces and few classes. For example, the Stellent/Oracle UCM API is composed of roughly 80% interfaces/20% classes, and many of the classes are just exceptions. What is the technical reason for preferring interfaces to classes? Is it just an effort to minimize coupling? To improve encapsulation/information hiding? Something else?

  • 32-Bit Compiling in XCode

    - by user15386
    I was trying to get SDL to work on my mac but kept running into mysterious errors. After some googling, I realized that my issue was that SDL compiled in 32 bits, or was 32 bits, or something, and XCode was compiling my program in 64 bits. There were some solutions, as well, but all were very technical or required arcane knowledge which my novice brain did not comprehend. So, how can I either get a version of SDL that will work with a 64 bit compiler, or tell XCode to compile in 32 bits?

  • What is a good metaphor for c memory management?

    - by fsmc
    I'm trying to find a good metaphor to explain memory allocation, initialization and freeing in c to a non technical audience. I've heard pass-by-reference/value talked about quite well with postal service usage, but not so much for allocation/deallocation. So for I've thought about using the idea of renting a space might work, but I wonder if the SO crew can provide something better.

  • Explaining your system to a client

    - by Sir Graystar
    I'm currently developing a small Database Management System for a local company. How would you go about explaining how the system you have designed to a client? If they are non-technical and have no understanding of programming, how would you go about showing what the system will do and how it will do it? I guess some sort of visual representation of the system but this seems very patronising to me.
