If you want to generate code, make sure your target language is not Java

I tried to write a program using Java; it all seemed to be going well but then I hit a ridiculous limit. Java cannot be used for this type of problem. I have now completely re-written it in a different programming language, and that works fine. Be aware of this limit. I was unaware of it when I started this project. But it makes Java completely unsuitable for a whole class of problem.

Kyle Hailey has started putting together a much needed Oracle wait event reference. You can access it here . By the way, Oracle documentation also has a wait event reference section, it has more events, but it’s less detailed…

I've updated the browser plugin to finally support full online multiplayer! Go try it! I think the plugin is now stable enough that I am promoting it as the officially recommended method of playing the game. :) Of course, there are still some problems. Namely, in Internet Explorer the mouse control doesn't work. Testing so far has shown Firefox 3 and Chrome (on Windows) handle the game very well. So give it a whirl, and please post an..

Bugs are fun but this time I want to talk about win. Recently I finished work on a recursive descent expression evaluator in the Bandcamp code. (That’s a mouthful and I enjoy slinging that whenever I can—it’s up there with binary space partitions.) An expression evaluator is something that can take a sequence of characters […]

CVE-2007-4573 is two years old at this point, but it remains one of my favorite vulnerabilities. It was a local privilege-escalation vulnerability on all x86_64 kernels prior to v2.6.22.7. It’s very simple to understand with a little bit of background, and the exploit is super-simple, but it’s still more interesting than Yet Another NULL Pointer Dereference. Plus, it was the first kernel bug I wrote an exploit for, which was fun.

Here we’ll look at an example of a simple light. We draw a static ball in the middle that will serve us as a background. Four small balls will move around the big one and represent different lights. These small balls are not actually lights, but are there to show the color and position of the light.

Not dead... just really busy. Been doing a lot of network debugging and optimization; I added zlib compression to the network packets, which cut down network bandwidth by about a fourth. I also streamlined a few network issues, added a simple network performance logger, and implemented simple client-side interpolation; everything moves much smoother now, even if there is a slight delay. It's basically a fact of life these days in online gam..

sooner or later you’ll end up needing to do some argument parsing. the foolish end up writing their own yucky parser that ends up having a big if statement filled with things like: if len(sys.argv) > 1 in it. don’t do this unless you have a really good excuse. sooner or later, someone directs you to getopt , and you happily continue on with buggy manual parsing thinking you’ve “ found the way ”. useful in some circumstances, but sh..

In my Beyond Oracle Wait interface article I troubleshooted a test case where an execution plan somehow went “crazy” and started burning CPU, lots of logical IOs and the query never completed. I have uploaded the test case that you can run here (note that it drops and creates tables T1..T5 in your schema): /ast/02_bind_peeking_nested_loops.sql Basically what I do is this: I run the query with bind variable values where only a ha..
