Latex: applying a style to everything in a block
I'm writing a math paper, and I want to change the style for the statement of theorems to \tt. However, I want this to affect things within math mode as well as normal text. Is there some way to force all math blocks withing an environment to change style?

What shapes can you Draw in Css?
I recently came across a [trick for drawing triangles][1] in css (it's the 'point' of the comment). And it's obvious how to draw a circle and rectangle/square. It seems like this would be enough to draw pretty much any shape (as long as you don't mind ignoring IE for circles) <span class='red-triangle'></span> <span class='blue-circle'></span> <span class='green-square'></span> css: .red-triangle { display: block; height: 0; width: 0; border-bottom: 1em solid #f00; border-left: 1em solid transparent; } .blue-circle { display: block; height: 10px; width: 10px; background-color: #00f; -moz-border-radius: 5px; -webkit-border-radius: 5px; -khtml-border-radius: 5px; border-radius: 5px; } .green-square { background-color: #0f0; display: block; height: 10px; width: 10px; } What other useful and clever tricks should I know about? :) [1]: http://desandro.com/resources/css-speech-bubble-icon

c++ Any type of array as an argument for a function
I tried to make a function that takes a vector for an argument: class class0 { ... ... } void function (vector <class0> random_vector) { ... ... } int main () { vector <class0> the_vector; function (the_vector); ... ... } It worked. I achieved it with a simple experiment. But I don't know if there is more to know about doing something like this. Is it the same with the other types of arrays? Is this the best way? So I need is more info about using any type of arrays as an argument for a function.

How do I upgrade postgresl database? Incompatibility error
I installed postgresql via Homebrew.

Should I put error handling in T-SQL?
As a developer, error handling and try/catch is a very important part of the code I write. However, in SQL Server Stored Procs, is it best practise to write error handling within the SP? And if one does not (which seems to be the common case), does the exception propagate to the .NET code? I ask that question as I am under the impression that T-SQL behaves like C# error handling. And what is the best way to write error handling in T-SQL? Thanks

how to swap values of two rows in mysql without violating unique constraint?
I have a "tasks" table with a priority column, which has a unique constraint. I'm trying to swap the priority value of two rows, but I keep violating the constraint. I saw this statement somewhere in a similar situation, but it wasn't with MySQL. UPDATE tasks SET priority = CASE WHEN priority=2 THEN 3 WHEN priority=3 THEN 2 END WHERE priority IN (2,3); This will lead to the error: Error Code: 1062. Duplicate entry '3' for key 'priority_UNIQUE' Is it possible to accomplish this in MySQL without using bogus values and multiple queries?

How indent this Objective-C code?
I have a simple question. How I indent a very long line. Let's use the traditional 80 caracters. This is a line in my code: NSString *count = [[NSString alloc] initWithString: [sTemp substringFromIndex:[sTemp rangeOfString:@"count="].location + [sTemp rangeOfString:@"count="].length]]; One solution was NSString *count = [[NSString alloc] //line 1 initWithString: [sTemp substringFromIndex: [sTemp rangeOfString:@"count="].location + [sTemp rangeOfString:@"count="].length]]; This is not the best sample, but the idea is: 1. Ok, the first line is the assignment and alloc thing. 2. The line 2 indent with a fell more right space. But, if the name of variable or type is very big, I will have the situation above. What I do? NSStringWithVeryBigType *bigNameVariable = [NSStringWithVeryBigType alloc] initWithString: [sTemp substringFromIndex: 3. IN second line I create a new NSString. I can be confuse if the line 3 and 4 (in a bad situation, not this) is the main function creation, or is this new one. Have a good rule about it? And if it have a big name too, what to do again... In other words, in a big assignment line, what rule I have to fallow?

Git: Renaming a directory in a branch
I have a project using Git where I've branched off of master to rename a directory. The rename in the branch works as expected. When I switch back to the master branch the directory has its original name, but there's also an empty directory tree with the name that I changed it to in the branch. Is this the expected behavior? Am I missing a step? Do I just need to delete these empty directory trees as they appear? I know Git doesn't track empty directories and that may be a factor here. My current workflow is: # create and checkout a branch from master /projects/demo (master) $ git checkout -b rename_dir # update paths in any affected files # perform the rename /projects/demo (rename_dir) $ git mv old_dir new_dir # add the modified files /projects/demo (rename_dir) $ git add -u # commit the changes /projects/demo (rename_dir) $ git commit -m 'Rename old_dir to new_dir' I get to this point and everything is as expected: # old_dir has been renamed new_dir /projects/demo (rename_dir) $ ls new_dir The issue comes when I switch back to master: /projects/demo (rename_dir) $ git checkout master # master contains old_dir as expected but it also # includes the empty directory tree for new_dir /projects/demo (master) $ ls old_dir new_dir new_dir is an empty directory tree, so git won't track it - but it's ugly to have there.

Is LINQ-to-SQL + SQLite.NET + Stored Procedures + VISUAL STUDIO 2008 possible?
So I want to retrieve data using stored procedures. Preferably via Linq2SQL. So I can do something like this (example): var productHistory = dbname.StoredProcedureMethod(value); foreach(var product in productHistory) { //stuff } This is something I'd like to be able to do in Visual Studio 2008 in .Net 3.5. It is possible with Visual studio 2008 + .Net 3.5 + SQL Server 2008. But firstly, I don't like SQL Server 2008 and secondly, I need the database to be absolutely portable. I've always liked SQLite.net, but it is not a direct requirement - as long as the database solution is portable. I haven't been able to set anything up but Visual studio 2008 + SQLite.Net. So yeah, I am asking for your help :)

i have to do the following to the database, have an idea but its not clear. help!
note:- Please read the explanation of what is to be achieved and provide initial guidance, i know there must be a lot of concepts involved, i am not asking for complete step by step solution, need help in knowing what concepts need studying and a proper path to start with. There are a lot of resources on the internet, which makes it really confusing and tiresome. therefore asking this question to get proper guidance. my college assignment is to make an database, such that the database is able to generate a user interface which provides the best help to the TIME TABLE MAKER PERSON of the college it manages all the issues relating to timetabling and extra issues request by the college. my professor explained me that, 1) currently all the timetabling work is done on paper through mutual coordination. i have to make a database for it whose 'schema' must be common to all departments. 2) now have to implement it in an distributed environment. Each department will/must be maintain/having its own computer where its data will be stored. MY Answer 1) i have designed the database schema such that its one for all "can handle timetabling for all departments." MY Answer 2) for implementing this, i have to assume that 2a) each department will want to maintain its own database server.

The schema of the database will be replicated. Now to access these db server i will still have to use different connection strings in C# coding, as the dbs reside on different computers, so whats the big deal?? its just copying paste-ing the db file to all that need it!! am i right? i hope i am not,? please guide. Thank you.

i have to do the following to the database, have an idea but its not clear. help! === note:- Please read the explanation of what is to be achieved and provide initial guidance, i know there must be a lot of concepts involved, i am not asking for complete step by step solution, need help in knowing what concepts need studying and a proper path to start with. There are a lot of resources on the internet, which makes it really confusing and tiresome. therefore asking this question to get proper guidance. my college assignment is to make an database, such that the database is able to generate a user interface which provides the best help to the TIME TABLE MAKER PERSON of the college it manages all the issues relating to timetabling and extra issues request by the college. my professor explained me that, 1) currently all the timetabling work is done on paper through mutual coordination. i have to make a database for it whose 'schema' must be common to all departments. 2) now have to implement it in an distributed environment. Each department will/must be maintain/having its own computer where its data will be stored. MY Answer 1) i have designed the database schema such that its one for all "can handle timetabling for all departments." MY Answer 2) for implementing this, i have to assume that 2a) each department will want to maintain its own database server. The software used will be "SQL SERVER 2005 EXPRESS". 2b)The website will connect to the needed data base server depending on the request of the client. 2c) one computer running IIS 5.0 windows XP to host the website. 2d) Assume there are 4 departments, i will need four computers running sql server 2005 express. ***The Question*** what term to use here "the database is distributed or the database is replicated"?? { there is no distribute database feature in sql server 2005 express edition } "i do not think it will be distributed as the same schema will be running, on all computers" that leaves replication, if i use the "Replication feature" which is shown in micrsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express.

Updating an entity with NHibernate in Asp.Net
What's the recommended way of updating an entity? So far, I figured out two ways: 1. Just create a new entity with the existing Id and updated property values, and use session.SaveOrUpdate() 2. Use a DTO, retrieve the existing entity using session.Load(dto.Id), assign new vaues from the dto, then save. No1 requires much less effort, but sometimes I'm getting an exception: "a different object with the same identifier value was already associated with the session". Is there a simple way around that? No2 might require an extra trip to the DB I guess? Sorry if that's been answered already, just couldn't find the answer. Thanks ulu

Why is it so difficult to create a setup that provides the user with just a Setup.exe in VS2010
Does anyone have a full example of providing a clickonce install that provide the user with a Setup.exe. This should be simple! Clickonce is not a solution the user does not want to see loads of files in a folder; he/she wants a simple setup.exe. The msi setup wizard seems not to be hooked up to the clickonce system. There is some info about a bootstrap thing but again that is an addon :( I cannot understand why it is so difficult; does MS have shares in Install Shield :) Help please.

Use of null check in event handler
When checking if an event handler is null, is this done on a per-thread basis? Ensuring someone is listening to the event is done like this: EventSeven += new DivBySevenHandler(dbsl.ShowOnScreen); If I add code following this pattern above where I check for null, then why would I need a null check (code taken from http://www.codeproject.com/KB/cs/csevents01.aspx). What am I missing? Also, what's the rule with events and GC? Thanks

How to deal with long lines of code and commands in Python
I've tried searching, but I couldn't find any situations similar to mine. I am writing a program and so far I've stuck to the no more than 79 characters in a line rule. However I'm not sure where to break lines in a few situations. Here are the problem areas: self.proc.stdin.write('(SayText "%s")\n' % text.replace('\\', '\\\\').replace('"', '\\"')) For this situation when I break first line after the '(SayText "%s")\n', the second line ends up being 80 characters long. Should I then break the second line somewhere in the brackets like this? self.proc.stdin.write('(SayText "%s")\n' % text.replace('\\', '\\\\').replace('"', '\\"')) Or would it be better to bring the entire third line to the beginning of the first brackets like this: self.proc.stdin.write('(SayText "%s")\n' % text.replace('\\', '\\\\').replace('"', '\\"')) Another example of this is here: filename = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(filetypes = (("Word list", "*.tldr"), ("All files", "*.*"))) Should I do this? filename = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(filetypes = (("Word list", "*.tldr"), ("All files", "*.*"))) Or this? filename = tkFileDialog.askopenfilename(filetypes = (("Word list", "*.tldr"),("All files", "*.*"))) What would be a good convention to follow?

How to propagate changes done outside my View in a WPF app
I have a property called `IsVisible`: public new bool IsVisible { get { return base.IsVisible; } set { base.IsVisible = value; this.RaisePropertyChanged ( "IsVisible" ); } } So this property is set to `true` when left mouse button is down for the selected item in the`TreeView`. It works fine, but I also have a `CheckBox` I am trying to bind to the same property, two way. So whenever I change this property via left mouse button down, the `CheckBox` shows the IsVisible state if it's true. So this works partially. But the problem is, each time when I set this property to true for an instance, all other layers' `IsVisible` property is set to false, but the `CheckBox`es don't show the changes. They still look checked. So whenever I say: layer.IsVisible = true; all the other layers are set to false by the base class which I don't have access to the source code (shown above). How can I make my app recognize this change?

But the problem is, each time when I set this property to true for an instance, all other layers' `IsVisible` property is set to false, but the `CheckBox`es don't show the changes. They still look checked. So whenever I say: layer.IsVisible = true; all the other layers are set to false by the base class which I don't have access to the source code (shown above). How can I make my app recognize this change?

At least the first 31 ,or 63 characters of an internal name are significant?
Here's a direct quote from the book: "At least the first 31 characters of an internal name are significant. For function names and external variables, the number may be less than 31, because external names may be used by assemblers and loaders over which the language has no control. For external names, the standard guarantees only for 6 characters and a single case." and in c99 no length limitation on its internal names, but only the first 63 are significant. the question is why specifically **31** or **63** like in c99,why this number specifically why not **19,24** or any other number,and if it's implementation issue so sure there a benefit from make it **31** or **63** ...........please if anybody can explain i'll be appreciated.

Interrupting/stop a CSS3 transition with JavaScript
I am writing a jQuery plugin to animate elements via CSS3 Transitions. in jQuery there is as `.stop()` that interupts the current animation on the selected element. Any idea how i could stop a running CSS3 animation? Is there a native way to handle this or do i have to mesure the animation, and set the style of the animated element to the current position, color size or whaterver? This is the current state of the jQuery plugin: http://jsfiddle.net/meo/r4Ppw/

Suggestions for open source testing tool for cloud computing
I want to know if there is any open source testing tool for cloud computing. We have built a cloud framework with Xen, Eucalyptus, Hadoop, HBase as different layers. I am not looking at testing each of these tools separately, but i want to test them from the perspective of fitting into a cloud environment (for example scalability of xen hypervisor to handle multiple VMs). Would be great if you can suggest me some tool (open source) for the above.

Printing data from text file , the program always goes to the last record
I have written a program that stores booking information in a text file in c++. So far I can search the booking number and check if that number exists in the text file and print "Record is found". Now when I try to print the line in which the booking information is stored , the program always prints the last line in the text file. for example it says that "Record 123 is found" but it prints the record "999" which is the last in the txt file. Can you help me solve this problem by showing me some codes , about how I can print a specific line from a file.

Print on client using winform or application
I have developed ASP.NET programme. The probleme is: i want to select the printer on client and print it. i know it is almost impossible, maybe with activX, but i don't know much about activX and it work only under IE. So i created work around. i created Winfrom that run on PC client and connect to my ASP.NET via WCF. until now works fine, but the process become anoying for the client. because he has to work on ASP.NET to save the item and run the Winform and clic it to retrive the item from ASP.NET and print it. nowdays i use PULL methode, that's meant that my Winform PULL the data from ASP.NET i wonder if i can use PUSH methode, that meant the ASP.NET push the data to Winform and the client only clic one button on ASP.NET. or how can i make my winform always listen into ASP.NET. by the way, i want to simplify the client side, so he only clic one button instead of two. Thanks you in advance, Stev

OpenGL - ortho Projection matrix, glViewport
I'm having trouble wrapping my head around how these work. First, in a 2d game the projection matrix should be set up as ortho with left, right, top, bottom matching the window, right? But when the window resizes, should I just change glViewport, not the projection matrix? And how do I keep the aspect ratio? Could someone explain the purposes of these two things, in 2d orthographical game, so that I can understand it better? It feels like OpenGL is doing a lot of useless stuff in a 2d setup. Rasterizing and calculating fragments when the images are already there, converting vertex coordinates to NDC only to be converted back to what they already where by glViewport. Also, how come in legacy free OpenGL we have to make our own matrices, but not our own calculations that glViewport does? Thanks.

I am preparing a online boutique and would appreciate thoughts as far as developing it to grow with me
I have knowledge of HTML/CSS Javascript the DOM, MVC php and familiarity with flash although I am a novice in them overall. I have been researching and practicing usage of all the above over the past few years. I'm fervently building my knowledge of development because I can't afford to outsource for a web designer and the creative aspects in web design/development I enjoy. My plan is building an online clothing boutique in flash mostly (Look-Book/animated headers and logo). My thoughts are keeping it simple in order to launch it sooner then later and grow with the site as a developer/designer/administrator/stressed person!! :) ...the site would have fewer functions on the users end compared to the back end, [ user visits, enjoys the landing...looks through online catalog with the clothing, chooses sizes, styles, +/-things to their cart...purchases(paypal)/or not...leaves...hopefully comes back later to visit directed by new or seasonal updates ], (feel free to bump my elbow if I left out your thoughts[HERE]) I am loosely outlining the site and my ability/disability :( to receive input on constructing it efficiently. I plan on putting the most effort in design and properly scripting the site so I do not have to constantly change or revise it during its lifetime. I plan on creating a database of customers to e-mail seasonally or for events/promotions. I have not stated that my main concerns will be the purchasers safety, the integrity of the site from being compromised during their interactions and the ability of myself to easily update catalogs or individual garments. The other thoughts I have are the ability to change the look of the site seasonally without revising it in its entirety...so it always feels familiar to repeat customers even if the design is totally changed. Other thoughts I have in mind are the ability to be viewed on cell phones [I have something called adobe device central], and possibly not using joomla wordpress or any CMS so I don't have to compromise design for usability as well as the learning experience. Any thoughts are appreciated and hopefully I didn't break the rules of posting so this can be informative in new ways. Thanks to this site and users as well, you've all been a great help already!!

Running shell_exec() in symfony
I have a program that returns a comma-separated string of numbers after doing some background processing. I intended to run this in symfony using `shell_exec`; however, all I get is NULL (revealed through a `var_dump()`. I tried the following debugging steps. I ran the file (it's a PHP class) through a command-line lime unit test in Symfony - it works and gives the correct result there. Just to check, I tried a simple command `ls -l` at the same place to see whether I would get anything. Again, I had the same problem - the `var_dump` in the browser showed NULL, but it worked through the command line. What could be the problem? Are there restrictions on running `shell_exec()` in a browser?

What is the difference between a JBoss 7 domain and a Weblogic domain?
I'm writing up an architectural document about a Java EE solution suggesting two middlewares: JBoss 7 or Oracle Weblogic 12. I see that both application servers use the concept of "domain" but it seems in different ways. For example JBoss 7 domain seems a management option so that you can control all server with a single configuration point. On the other side it a Weblogic domain seems not a server mode but an integral part of the infrastructure. Is there any expert who can shed some light on it ? (especially on the Weblogic side) ?

Silverlight Animating Control in ListBox
I've got a user control that I'm using as my DataTemplate for all the items in my ListBox. There's an animation in said UserControl that's pretty simple - it just expands a certain ListBox, and it works. The thing is, when I scroll, every Nth item ALSO has the ListBox expanded, where N depends on how big my browser is sized to (in other words, how many items the ListBox is holding at any one time.) It seems as though new items getting loaded into the listbox as I scroll are tripping over this animation. Is there anything I can do about this?

Positioning nested divs
I am trying to position divs nested within a centred wrapper so that they don't move when I adjust the size of a browser. The idea is similar to the Facebook homepage where all the divs stay centred and don't move relative to each other when the page is made bigger. All of my divs are nested in this: #header { width: 750px; margin: 0 auto; } What do I have to do to position the divs within? Is it something to do with positioning? Sorry this is a bit of a vague explanation, please do ask for clarification! Any help would be much appreciated, thanks.

What is your preferred office size/layout?
This is a question about your preferred environment for software development. We recently moved into new offices, and before they were planned, we had a little poll among all the developers what their preferred office size was (this is Europe, so no cubicles, we are used to separate offices ;-) ). The result was that, before we moved, most developers seemed to favor small offices (1-2 people) over larger ones. We were able to create an office layout with differently sized offices in the end, and now that we moved, everybody seems to prefer the larger variants (4-5 people). So what is your preferred office layout and size? Do you prefer private offices or do you prefer layouts that enhance communication?

I'm working with Drupal and I want to diff between two databases, to see which tables have been updated in a given session. how do I do this?
I'm working with Drupal on a project, trying to find a way to speed up tests (we're using Cucumber and Selenium), and I'm trying to see which tables have been changed in a given series of steps, so I can just revert dump and out reset those tables between each test case. Right now, Simpletest, the Drupal testing framework works by installing and setting up the tables for every module needed for a test, which makes for slow tests, and I'm emulating a similar approach by loading a db dump for each test. Given that a site, if you're doing integration testing has a 'known good' state to be starting from, I think it would be faster to be able to just revert back to that point each time, instead of waiting twenty seconds or so to drop the database then pipe the dumpfile back in between each test runs. However, when I try diffing between two dumpfiles (ie `before.I.create.a.node.sql`, and `after.I.create.a.node.sql`) the output is an unreadable load of serialised php, that I can't make sense of. Ae there any tools I can use to help work out which tables I need to drop and rebuild between test cases, so I don't incur the 20 second hit on each test, short of reading the schema and code of every module I'm working with? I'm following the ideas outlined here with [getting cucumber to work with PHP][1], and yes, I have seen [this question here on a [similar subject][2] Thanks!

How are you structuring your Git repository workflow?
We've seen and watched the videos on how large distributed teams are using Git, but what about those of us who aren't distributed and who work in the office with the rest of our team? How should we be structuring our repository(ies) and our workflow? Think about the tradition office who has been using Subversion or CVS as the single point of authority. Certainly these teams could each maintain their own Git repository and push/pull between each other as necessary, which would quickly turn into a nightmare in many situations. Or, they could each maintain their own repository and sync with a single repository that's know as the "master" for the team. Or, there could be any combination of workflows with the possibilities a DVCS opens up. How does your team work? What have you found to be a useful workflow?

Accessing .Net WCF services from Android
(where it says huup it used to say http but your forum does not like http) I have a .Net WCF service (not a web service) with many methods, some accepting and returning complex data types. I use these services from my Windows Phone 7 apps. It all works great and it's easy. Now I'm evaluating the feasibility of porting some of my apps to android but I can't figure out how to invoke my WCF services from an android client. I have a working example I found at... huup://naveenbalani.com/index.php/2011/01/invoke-webservices-from-android/ (code pasted below) But this looks to be accessing a "Web Service" not a WCF Service. My service is at huup://www.deanblakely.com/Service2.svc and it contains a simple method named "SimpleTest" that just returns the string "Alive". Using the code below I put huup://www.deanblakely.com/Service2.svc in SOAP_ADDRESS and SimpleTest in OPERATION_NAME. But I have no idea what to put in SOAP_ACTION and WSDL_TARGET_NAMESPACE. I don't even know if this approach is valid. In .Net, Visual Studio builds us a "Service Reference" and everything just works. I also don't understand the following two lines of code... huupTransport.call(SOAP_ACTION, envelope); Object response = envelope.getResponse(); With WCF services the call is async so we make the call to SimpleTestAsync and leave a callback for the async return. These two lines of code appear to be synchronous, no? Hope someone can help. thanks, Gary Naveen Balani's code......(which I was able to get working with his web service) WELL, I WASN'T ABLE TO PASTE MY THE HERE BECAUSE YOUR FORUM SOFTWARE KEPT SAYING IT WAS NOT INDENTED BY 4 SPACES. I TRIED EVERYTHING I COULD THINK OF BUT YOU CAN SEE IT AT THE HUUP LINK (YOUR SOFTWARE ALSO WOULD NOT LET ME HAVE THOSE LINKS WITH THE H AND THE 2TS AND A P - IMHO WAY ANAL)

'$' of object [object Window] is not a function

The site is located <a href="http://www.firesidexpressions.com">here</a>. I realize there is a mess of javascript and jquery in the HEAD, and I am sure that is not helping matters. The error I'm getting is **Property '$' of object [object Window] is not a function**. Is there possibly a jQuery conflict going on here?

How do i detect keystrokes using objective c?
just wondering, how I go about detecting different keystrokes, and then detecting what key has been pressed I tried using this, `- (void)keyDown:(NSEvent *)event` but didnt seem to get any results. I've also had a search around but didn't find anything. I'm guessing I may have to set up something in interface builder to detect keystrokes? I also think that it has something to do with what is selected, if its a text field something. thanks.

Is it advisable to use the canonical form in a Silverlight application?
We are developing a LOB application using Silverlight and several team members are advocating the use of the canonical design pattern instead of creating simple WCF services. As the lead, I’m trying to balance best practices with an incredibly tight time line. Here are the reasons I do NOT think Canonical is a good approach for our project. - We have no immediate (<5 years) requirement to expose any internal services to the enterprise. - Time required for governance. (Developing adapters with data transformation logic, developing XSDs, and developing contracts [fault, data, and operation]). - No need to expose a different data contracts than what exists in the data layer - It doesn’t appear that we can easily use ‘self tracking entities’ with the Canonical approach. Here are some reasons I’m considering using Canonical approach. - We can use the XSD schemas for data type and length validation. - We will be prepared to allow consumption of our services to the enterprise, whether it’s 5 years or 1 year. - We can feel good that we’re implementing best practices. :) So, is it advisable to follow the Canonical approach with a Silverlight application? It does not seem that the benefits Canonical provide out weigh the additional work. …or perhaps I’m wrong and it’s not additional work.

When is enough abstraction enough [fixed]
I tried asking this and it got closed very quickly for being too long. (Which it was.) But I think it's a genuine question that needs to be discussed, so here's a much shorter version: Abstractions are supposed to simplify your code. But in my experience maintaining other people's code, I consistently find that the trade-off for making code easier to write is making it harder to read, understand, and debug, especially if it's someone else doing the reading and debugging. In a lot of cases, it doesn't really reduce complexity; it just hides it or makes it someone else's problem. Does anyone have any good principles or guidelines as to when to introduce new layers of abstraction and, more importantly, when not to?

When is enough abstraction enough [fixed] === I tried asking this and it got closed very quickly for being too long. (Which it was.) But I think it's a genuine question that needs to be discussed, so here's a much shorter version: Abstractions are supposed to simplify your code. But in my experience maintaining other people's code, I consistently find that the trade-off for making code easier to write is making it harder to read, understand, and debug, especially if it's someone else doing the reading and debugging. In a lot of cases, it doesn't really reduce complexity; it just hides it or makes it someone else's problem. Does anyone have any good principles or guidelines as to when to introduce new layers of abstraction and, more importantly, when not to?

Research topics for machine learning in computer games
I have to decide a topic for my Masters Thesis in Computer Science, and I'd like to work in the field of Machine Learning in computer games, specially first person shooters. I've looked around and found some decent amount of work done in this area in some universities. However, most of the research papers I found were quiet old. What are some of the possible thesis topics in this area? And what kind of work has been done in this field in the recent years?

How to read an installed feature (eclipse PDE)?
Is it possible to read a feature like its possible to read a plugin use the eclipse PDE API? Currently I read plugins using: Bundle[] bundles = Platform.getBundles(name, version); if (bundles == null) { throw new NullPointerException("No bundle found with ID: " + name + " and version: " + version); } else { for (Bundle bundle : bundles) { System.out.println(bundle.getSymbolicName()); } } But if I specify the name of an installed feature I just get null. Is there some other way that features should be read? And when I have read the feature I would like to iterate all the plugins that it reference.

php order form, passing multiple variables.
I am creating a order table. my problem I am having is with my form field for each row/record with in the table. <input type="text" size="4" name="buy_item['2']" value="0"> I am defining each identifier by a similar syntax buy_item[ item number ] my problem is when the entire form is sent to through the post request how do I know exactly which items were purchased? It is possible their could be up to 100 different items, so the post variables can always be changing. what i know how to do is hard code each item into the buy script but i feel that it is much to in efficient and would really lack the ability to add items or remove them. $_POST['buy_item[2]']; would be the equivalent to the example at the top. but what if someone bought buy_item['99'] instead of buy_item['2'] If anyone can lead me towards the right direction it would be greatly appreciated.

WiX tricks and best practices
We've been using WiX 3 for a while now, and despite the usual gripes about ease of use, it's going reasonably well, but i'm looking for what people consider best practice for: - Setting up a WiX project (layout, references, file patterns) - Integrating WiX into their solutions, build and release process - Configuring installers (both for new installations and for upgrades) I'd also be interested in any tricks or good hacks that you would like to share. To get the ball rolling, here are a few things that we do: 1. Keep all variables in a separate include file e.g. Config.wxi 2. Define Platform variables for x86 and x64 builds <!-- Product name as you want it to appear in Add/Remove Programs--> <?if $(var.Platform) = x64 ?> <?define ProductName = "Product Name (64 bit)" ?> <?define Win64 = "yes" ?> <?define PlatformProgramFilesFolder = "ProgramFiles64Folder" ?> <?else ?> <?define ProductName = "Product Name" ?> <?define Win64 = "no" ?> <?define PlatformProgramFilesFolder = "ProgramFilesFolder" ?> <?endif ?> An example using 1. and 2. <Package InstallerVersion="200" InstallPrivileges="elevated" InstallScope="perMachine" Platform="$(var.Platform)" Compressed="yes" Description="$(var.ProductName)" /> 3. For our products, the simplest approach seems to be to always do major upgrades, so our ProductCode is set as * (auto-generate for each build) and our UpgradeCode is fixed to a unique Guid and will never change (unless we don't want to upgrade existing product) 4. Create an icon in Add/Remove Programs <Icon Id="Company.ico" SourceFile="..\Tools\Company\Lib\Company.ico" /> <Property Id="ARPPRODUCTICON" Value="Company.ico" /> <Property Id="ARPHELPLINK" Value="http://www.example.com/" /> 5. On release builds (we version our installers) copy msi to a deploy folder <Target Name="CopyToDeploy" Condition="'$(Configuration)' == 'Release'"> <!-- Note we append AssemblyFileVersion, changing MSI file name only works with Major Upgrades --> <Copy SourceFiles="$(OutputPath)$(OutputName).msi" DestinationFiles="..\Deploy\Setup\$(OutputName) $(AssemblyFileVersion)_$(Platform).msi" /> </Target>

Arduino overheating when plugged in to wall outlet
I'm pretty new to Arduino, so I apologize in advance if there's a really simple answer out there that I wasn't able to find. :) I've been using my Arduino mainly to test LED's and other small components, so I've kept it plugged into my laptop without any issues until now. Recently, I built a project using a receipt printer ([Hello Printer][1]), so it was necessary to plug the Arduino (connected to an ethernet shield and the printer) into a wall socket. Almost immediately, both boards began to heat up to the point where it hurt to touch. I unplugged it as quickly as I could, and there didn't appear to be any damage. My first thought was that I was using the wrong adapter, so I checked and confirmed that it is a 9v AC-DC adapter. My next thought was that the printer was using too much power, so I unplugged it and tested a simple LED blink program. That made the Arduino and the ethernet shield heat up as well. Finally, I tried the LED blink program in a different socket, only to have the same results. I am aware that it's normal for the board to heat up slightly, but this seems a little extreme. What should I do? I'm all out of things to try. Thanks in advance! [1]: http://gofreerange.com/hello-printer "Hello Printer"

How to categorize Mime Types (PHP)
I'm looking for a code snippet which categorizes mime types. For example, <br> application/msword application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.text application/pdf Both of them are office files. When I pass these mime type to the function, I want it to return a result which is 'office', 'image', 'application', 'compressed' etc. However,as you know, there are hundreds of mime types and I can not collect all of them. Do you know where can I find it?

How do I select subdirectories in ant using a FileSet?
I'm using ant 1.6.2 and am trying to set up a task that will compare a source and a target directory, identify all the subdirectories that exist in the source directory and delete liked named subdirectories in the target directory. So, say the source directory has sub directories sub1, sub2, and sub3 in it and the target directory has sub1, sub2, sub3, and sub4 in it then I'd like to delete sub1, sub2, and sub3 from target dir. I thought I could do this by using a FileSelector to identify all directories in source that are present in target. However, I can't get the &lt;type> file selector to ever return a match for directories. Ultimately, I figured I'd do something like: <fileset id="dirSelector" dir="${install.dir}"> <type type="dir"/> <present targetdir="${dist.dir}"/> </fileset> I started by just trying to list the directories present in the source directory and print them out: <fileset id="dirSelector" dir="${install.dir}"> <type type="dir"/> </fileset> <property name="selected" refid="dirSelector" /> <echo>Selected: ${selected}</echo> However, I never get anything printed with the type selector set to directory. If I change the type to file I do get files printed out. Is there a better way to accomplish what I'm trying to do? Am I missing something in my use of the type selector?

What unsafe javascript should I block?
I am writing a PHP script that takes javascript code and writes it out in someones browser, works great, but I want the javascript to be able to be written by anyone, so I need to validate that certain things are not added to the javascript code like redirects and alert boxes. What I'm asking is simply for suggestions for things to be censored out of the javascript, I have a fairly extensive list right now but I just want to make sure there is not anything obvious, or extremely obscure I have missed. Thanks, Sam

how is java inspired by lisp? === > "We were after the C++ programmers.

I get that many features unique to java (over c++) like garbage collection were initially found in Lisp. But how else did java drag c++ programmers **half way** to lisp?

Re using deleted rowid in progress database
Can we re-use the deleted rowid(s) in progress database...? If it is possible how it is being carried out, after complete the full circle or take the immediate deleted entry or using configuration setup..?

git reset --hard seems to ignore .git/info/exclude
We have a shared directory (call it /shared) that we keep automatically up to date with our master git branch, by running these commands whenever there is a push to master: <pre> git reset --hard HEAD git clean -f -d git pull </pre> This works for the most part. However there is a directory /shared/media that we <b>don't</b> want to be touched, even though there is a "media" symlink checked into git. I've added "media" to .git/info/exclude, but regardless, "git reset --hard HEAD" removes /shared/media and replaces it with the checked in symlink. Is there any way to get "git reset --hard HEAD" to leave this directory alone, other than e.g. by moving it out of the way beforehand and restoring it afterwards?
