I made it to Thursday afternoon with only three episodes here, as woefully underpopulated as last week’s issue had been. But then, as they say, a miracle happened: all of a sudden every show I turned on wowed me, and before I knew it, I had the sprawling list you see stretched out before you. A sprawling list of, as usual, the best podcasts curated from those I listened to over this last week; it doesn’t get much better than this. Unfortuna..

If you've ever setup a web-app on a Linux server, chances are that you've setup a MySQL server at least once. On the off chance that you haven't, we'll do a quick crash course now: apt-get install mysql-server It might seem like I'm being a bit sarcastic. I am, though not by much. I suspect that most of the instances that I've seem running have had no configuration past what comes stock.

Una de las cosas que son más comunes a la hora de diseñar interfaces en Android son las interfaces Holo. Actualmente, el elemento que es más común — en conjunto con los menús laterales y las ActionBar — son los elementos tipo tarjeta, bastante comunes en el Play Store. Hay varias alternativas de implementación. La que más se repite es hacer un nine patch, que requiere cierto esfuerzo, pero lamentablemente, el resultado no es pixel perfect, ..

According to the Hauppauge website, the Western Digital Live Hub works with the Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-950Q TV tuner. It does not. The Hauppauge app does the channel scan, but freezes when you try to change channels. In other words you have to reboot the WD Live box whenever you want to change channels. That doesn’t count as working in my books. Just sayin’… A bit of Googling has shown that 950Q hardware Rev B may have worked, but the ve..

pWe use a href=http://airbrake.ioAirbrake/a for our error reporting. An error happens, the error gets sent to Airbrake and then we#39;re notified via email. We can then investigate all the goodness from their website. Fantastic!/p pMost Ruby apps are centered around some kind of web service (mainly Ruby on Rails). As such, Airbrake has emreally/em good Rails integration – even on their rake tasks! Airbrake is in a lot of our projects, some ....

For the record, this post isn’t about ripping apart real snails and slugs. It’s about ripping apart pretty much all of my existing code, which is what I’ve been doing over this weekend.

Currently the user interfaces are getting advanced to the point of where they could treat us better than other human beings would, at least in some cases. For example, take the GPS navigation in your phone. Suppose your GPS gives you a route but you miss a turn. The GPS doesn’t get angry at you, the way a human navigator might. “Are you blind or stupid, didn’t you see the street sign?” This is something you’d never hear from voice turn-by-t....

Hello and welcome to another week of Lemma development progress updates! This time I did a lot more work on the player character. I spent a ton of time in GIMP working on the texture map. I didn't skimp on memory space, it's a full 4096x4096. The GIMP file is over 150MB. I also split the model into three distinct materials: a shiny one for the chest, neck, and pants, a less shiny one for the hands, and a completely dull one for the hood..

On last week’s episode of the Accidental Tech Podcast , John Siracusa spent a great deal of time explaining his disappointment in Apple for sticking to its long-held policy whereby it takes a 30% cut of all digital transactions, regardless of volume. He theorized that Apple’s strict adherence to this rule had led Amazon to remove comiXology’s ability to sell comics within the app, thus leading to a detrimental user experience for this segm....

There was an interesting question in Oracle-L about the JOXSHM_EXT_* files in /dev/shm directory on Linux. Basically something like this: $ ls -l /dev/shm/* | head -rwxrwx--- 1 oracle dba 4096 Apr 18 10:16 /dev/shm/ JOXSHM_EXT_ 0_LIN112_1409029 -rwxrwx--- 1 oracle dba 4096 Apr 18 10:16 /dev/shm/JOXSHM_EXT_100_LIN112_1409029 -rwxrwx--- 1 oracle dba 4096 Apr 18 10:16 /dev/shm/JOXSHM_EXT_101_LIN112_1409029 -rwxrwx--- 1 oracle dba 4096 A....

When Apple released iOS 7.1 to the public in early March, many heralded it as the version of iOS 7 that should have shipped last September in 2013; iOS 7.1 is what iOS 7 should have been. Faced with severe time constraints, however, the popular narrative paints a picture of Apple having no choice but to release what many would come to call a half-baked product or slip on their intended release date. Unsurprisingly, the desire to stick with ..

I’ve recently been working with the Azure cache client which, by default, is configured by storing the details in your app.config or web.config. Now this is great if you’re in the traditional world but for Azure Platform as a service solutions Cloud Configuration is key. It allows you to change settings easily across multiple machines without having to jump into web.configs or redeploy etc. I wrote the little method below to help me to..

Great to see Soylent popping back up in the news again, this time courtesy of Dave Pell’s The Next Draft and The New Yorker’s Lizzie Widdicombe. In the past, I have written about and linked to articles discussing this a number of times, but never took my enthusiasm for Rob Rhinehart’s creation any further. Now, however, that Soylent has moved past the beta stages and anyone can get their hands on it , I can’t wait to give it a ..

Starting the Big Data Journey When a company first starts to play with Big Data it typically involves a small team of engineers trying to solve a specific problem. The team decides to experiment with scalable technologies either due to outside guidance or research which makes it applicable to their problem. The team begins with the basics of Big Data spending time learning and prototyping. They learn about HDFS, flirt with HBase or other No..

If one of the industry lingo terms in title didn’t make your skin crawl a little then I need to try harder. At the same time you’ve probably heard someone use one of them in a non-trolling way in the last month. All three of these can often actually mean the same or similar things, it’s just people approach them differently from their world perspective. Personas don’t have to be marketing only speak, and data science doesn’t have to be on....

I have a tendency to write long, rambling, retrospective introductions filled with background information of dubious value that I, for some reason, nevertheless deign to include as a prelude to beginning my actual article. This time, however, I want to get straight to the point. Permalink.

The way you structure your code is a key factor when you define your source code organization. It will make your life easier or miserable, and once this structure is established it will become a really tedious task to redefine it. That’s why you know about the different patterns available and choose the one fits your project best. But, why should I care about modules? Well, is the way Javascript offers to organize and encapsulate your cod....

Ever wanted to implement a distinct over a custom object list in C# before? You quickly discover that it fails to work. Sadly there is a lack of decent documentation about this and a lot of FUD. Since I lost a bit of time hopefully this blog post can be picked up as the answer. Thankfully its not as difficult as you would image. Assuming you have a simple custom object which contains an Id, and you want to use that Id to get a distinct li..

Postgres has a variety of datatypes, in fact quite a few more than most other databases. Most commonly applications take advantage of the standard ones – integers, text, numeric, etc. Almost every application needs these basic types, the rarer ones may be needed less frequently. And while not needed on every application when you do need them they can be an extremely handy. So without further ado let’s look at some of these rarer but awesome....
