  • Plays Well With Others - More Thoughts on the Job Search

    - by KKline
    Yes, I'm playing catch-up between my blog and here, since SQLBlog doesn't syndicate content automatically.

While searching for a job, the interview is your opportunity to showcase your talents and the strengths that you bring to an organization. But I have a few more random thoughts about conducting your...(read more)

  • What browser do you build in? [closed]

    - by Ryan
    Lately I have been using Chrome, but I am starting to think I should use FF. What are the advantages and disadvantages of the various mainstream browsers (with an emphasis on Chrome and FF) when doing web development? Is it easier to start with clean code for a relatively conforming browser, and later add hacks/workarounds for acceptable display with less conforming browsers, or is it easier to work with a variety of browsers from the beginning, so we never have a page that's completely unacceptable with, for example, IE 6?

  • Is it okay for programmers to be given the task of outlining database requirements?

    - by L'Ingenu
    In my current job, dba's and programmers are divided in tasks. Any code that needs to be written in procedures dba's write, and programmers do only application code. The strange thing is that whenever a task needs to be defined/specced, programmers get the task, and we have to define all the procedures needed and what they should return. Is this a common practice in software development? Are programmers generally the ones tasked with building requirements for the database side?

  • Path for a beginning web developer

    - by Trickerie
    I'm an experienced iOS programmer and have recently began to dabble in web development to expand my horizons. I've found it quite interesting and was wondering what learning path I should take through all the numerous languages. Here's what I planned on doing: HTML+CSS- PHP/Jquery Does that sound reasonable? Currently I'm nearly confident with my html/css abilities, and am planning to move ahead. Any good suggestions you guys could throw my way?

  • It's 2012.. why do we still need hacks like Micro Clearfix to do simple things? [closed]

    - by user72245
    I'm just dipping back into front-end development again. I seriously can't believe we're at "HTML5" yet the most basic thing imaginable - horizontal floating DIVs, still requires crazy esoteric hacks to work correctly? http://nicolasgallagher.com/micro-clearfix-hack/ Like this... why is this necessary? Why can't browsers just grow up and handle 3 dynamically-sized DIVs floating horizontally in a container row?

  • Good, simple reasons for having multiple environments

    - by smp7d
    Throughout my career I had worked at companies that had a collection of different environments for different purposes. We always had more or less our desktop environment, a test environment, a QA environment, a staging environment and a production environment. This went for both servers/applications and any data sources we were using. When I started at my current company I found that 90% of the apps were either developed on a desktop environment against production data sources or developed directly on the production server depending on the platform. I wasn't fazed because I was hired in part to make changes to improve the way the development team functioned, which was clear from my interview process. We slowly started to turn the philosophy and pretty soon, most of the apps could be run in either a desktop, test or production environment. Not too long after that staging came around as well. Now most of our developers see the benefit of this methodology and defend it vigilantly. However, we have a number of legacy apps that never got migrated. We also have a number of legacy programmers who think of this as a waste of time. Unfortunately, we got lip service but never full buy-in from management. We got what we thought was a commitment to invest substantially in this about a year ago, but nothing materialized despite the considerable planning that we put into it. Now we are finding that we need more and more environments. We need help from the server/network administration teams for setup and we need participation from the business stakeholders to support the release cycle. We are at a place now where a project can function what I consider "normally" only if you have the right people on the project and the time to set up the proper environments. I'd love to present a complete argument, but management really has no time and interest in hearing me out until there is a critical issue. I can't really articulate the benefits simply as it always just seemed second nature to me. I was wondering if there are any good, simple, irrefutable reasons for the separation of environments that would get managers with no development experience to get behind this idea. Are there any good resources/literature on the topic?

  • Why can't the IT industry deliver large, faultless projects quickly as in other industries?

    - by MainMa
    After watching National Geographic's MegaStructures series, I was surprised how fast large projects are completed. Once the preliminary work (design, specifications, etc.) is done on paper, the realization itself of huge projects take just a few years or sometimes a few months. For example, Airbus A380 "formally launched on Dec. 19, 2000", and "in the Early March, 2005", the aircraft was already tested. The same goes for huge oil tankers, skyscrapers, etc. Comparing this to the delays in software industry, I can't help wondering why most IT projects are so slow, or more precisely, why they cannot be as fast and faultless, at the same scale, given enough people? Projects such as the Airbus A380 present both: Major unforeseen risks: while this is not the first aircraft built, it still pushes the limits if the technology and things which worked well for smaller airliners may not work for the larger one due to physical constraints; in the same way, new technologies are used which were not used yet, because for example they were not available in 1969 when Boeing 747 was done. Risks related to human resources and management in general: people quitting in the middle of the project, inability to reach a person because she's on vacation, ordinary human errors, etc. With those risks, people still achieve projects like those large airliners in a very short period of time, and despite the delivery delays, those projects are still hugely successful and of a high quality. When it comes to software development, the projects are hardly as large and complicated as an airliner (both technically and in terms of management), and have slightly less unforeseen risks from the real world. Still, most IT projects are slow and late, and adding more developers to the project is not a solution (going from a team of ten developer to two thousand will sometimes allow to deliver the project faster, sometimes not, and sometimes will only harm the project and increase the risk of not finishing it at all). Those which are still delivered may often contain a lot of bugs, requiring consecutive service packs and regular updates (imagine "installing updates" on every Airbus A380 twice per week to patch the bugs in the original product and prevent the aircraft from crashing). How can such differences be explained? Is it due exclusively to the fact that software development industry is too young to be able to manage thousands of people on a single project in order to deliver large scale, nearly faultless products very fast?

  • How auto load image work when an status is post to social website?

    - by huahsin68
    When posting a status update on social website like facebook.com and linkedin.com which contain an URL, it will automatically scan the images available on the particular website and put it at the front of the status update. May I know how this could be done if I would like to do the same for my web app? Which web framework (JSF, Richfaces, JQuery, ...) should I use in such development? Beside that, is there any pre-build features available in blogger.com or wordpress.com?

  • How do I start implementing version control on legacy websites?

    - by Eric
    Assuming no experience with version control systems, just local to live web development. I've been dropped in on a few legacy website projects, and want an easier and more robust way to be able to quickly push and revert changes en masse. I'm currently the only developer on these projects, but more may be added in the future and I think it would be beneficial to set up a system that others can use.

    Which of these extra-curricular studies would benefit a CS student the most? Algorithms Advanced OS programming Image processing Computer graphics Open source development Practicing on TopCoder or Codechef Something else? I realize the decision can be influenced by a number of factors, such as personal preference, what's currently hot in the jobs market, and what is likely to be in demand more in the future, however I would like to ask more experienced programmers which one(s) of these would be most beneficial to learn alongside all the required CS academics.

  • Looking for an alternative to GameSalad

    - by Mr_Nizzle
    I have learned the most I could from GameSaldad in a week but now I'm facing one big problem I didn't see at the beginning: You cannot make API/WebServices call from GameSalad. So I am looking for alternatives on 2D game development, iOS or cross-platform, like GameSalad where you can actually make API calls, or web services call to keep track of the game and so on. Or should I go down to Cocos2D, CHIPMUNK?

  • Is it a good idea to make a native Android app, or is the environment too much hassle? [closed]

    - by desbest
    I've constantly been hearing bad things about the native development environment for Android, and that it should be avoided at all costs. Also it would require that I learn java and use Eclipse IDE. My concerns are mainly about how easy (or difficult) it is to code with the APIs. Is it good to make native Android apps without cross platform tools Phonegap/Titanium/Rhodes, or is it too much trouble than it's worth?

  • Error handling in Rails Controller for adding embedded Mongoid documents to Model

    - by Dragonfly
    I have a Item model that has embedded documents. Currently, the following comments_controller code will add a comment to the item successfully. However, if pushing the comment document onto the comments array on item fails, I will not know this. #this does work, but i do not know if the push fails def create comment = Comment.new(:text => params[:text]) @item.comments << comment render :text => comment end I would like to have something like this, but @item.comments << comment does not return true or false: #this does not work def create comment = Comment.new(:text => params[:text]) if @item.comments << comment render :text => comment else render :text => 'oh no' end end Nor does it throw an exception when the document push fails: #this does not work def create begin comment = Comment.new(:text => params[:text]) @item.comments << comment render :text => comment rescue Exception => e render :text => 'oh no' end end Thanks!

  • SWI-Prolog as an embedded application in VS2008 C++

    - by H.J. Miri
    I have a C++ application (prog.sln) which is my main program and I want to use Prolog as an embedded logic server (hanoi.pl) int main(int argc, char** argv) { putenv( "SWI_HOME_DIR=C:\\Program Files\\pl" ); argv[0] = "libpl.dll"; argv[1] = "-x"; argv[2] = "hanoi.pl"; argv[3] = NULL; PL_initialise(argc, argv); { fid_t fid = PL_open_foreign_frame(); predicate_t pred = PL_predicate( "hanoi", 1, "user" ); int rval = PL_call_predicate( NULL, PL_Q_NORMAL, pred, 3 ); qid_t qid = PL_open_query( NULL, PL_Q_NORMAL, pred, 3 ); while ( PL_next_solution(qid) ) return qid; PL_close_query(qid); PL_close_foreign_frame(fid); system("PAUSE"); } return 1; system("PAUSE"); } Here is my Prolog source code: :- use_module( library(shlib) ). hanoi( N ):- move( N, left, center, right ). move( 0, _, _, _ ):- !. move( N, A, B, C ):- M is N-1, move( M, A, C, B ), inform( A, B ), move( M, C, B, A ). inform( X, Y ):- write( 'move a disk from ' ), write( X ), write( ' to ' ), write( Y ), nl. I type at the command: plld -o hanoi prog.sln hanoi.pl But it doesn't compile. When I run my C++ app, it says: Undefined procedure: hanoi/1 What is missing/wrong in my code or at the prompt that prevents my C++ app from consulting Prolog? Appreciate any help/pointer.

  • Is there an "embedded DBMS" to support multiple writer applications (processes) on the same db files

    - by Amir Moghimi
    I need to know if there is any embedded DBMS (preferably in Java and not necessarily relational) which supports multiple writer applications (processes) on the same set of db files. BerkeleyDB supports multiple readers but just one writer. I need multiple writers and multiple readers. UPDATE: It is not a multiple connection issue. I mean I do not need multiple connections to a running DBMS application (process) to write data. I need multiple DBMS applications (processes) to commit on the same storage files. HSQLDB, H2, JavaDB (Derby) and MongoDB do not support this feature. I think that there may be some File System limitations that prohibit this. If so, is there a File System that allows multiple writers on a single file? Use Case: The use case is a high-throughput clustered system that intends to store its high-volume business log entries into a SAN storage. Storing business logs in separate files for each server does not fit because query and indexing capabilities are needed on the whole biz logs. Because "a SAN typically is its own network of storage devices that are generally not accessible through the regular network by regular devices", I want to use SAN network bandwidth for logging while cluster LAN bandwidth is being used for other server to server and client to server communications.

  • Static Data Structures on Embedded Devices (Android in particular)

    - by Mark
    I've started working on some Android applications and have a question regarding how people normally deal with situations where you have a static data set and have an application where that data is needed in memory as one of the standard java collections or as an array. In my current specific issue i have a spreadsheet with some pre-calculated data. It consists of ~100 rows and 3 columns. 1 Column is a string, 1 column is a float, 1 column is an integer. I need access to this data as an array in java. It seems like i could: 1) Encode in XML - This would be cpu intensive to decode in my experience. 2) build into SQLite database - seems like a lot of overhead for static access to data i only need array style access to in ram. 3) Build into binary blob and read in. (never done this in java, i miss void *) 4) Build a python script to take the CSV version of my data and spit out a java function that adds the values to my desired structure with hard coded values. 5) Store a string array via androids resource mechanism and compute the other 2 columns on application load. In my case the computation would require a lot of calls to Math.log, Math.pow and Math.floor which i'd rather not have to do for load time and battery usage reasons. I mostly work in low power embedded applications in C and as such #4 is what i'm used to doing in these situations. It just seems like it should be far easier to gain access to static data structures in java/android. Perhaps I'm just being too battery usage conscious and in my single case i imagine the answer is that it doesn't matter much, but if every application took that stance it could begin to matter. What approaches do people usually take in this situation? Anything I missed?
