  • How do you pronounce "Latex"?

    - by Brian
    How do you pronounce "Latex"? In university my lecturers all called it LAY-tec, but I was just listing to StackOverflow podcast #69 where Joel and Jeff call it LAH-tec. I've also heard LAY-tex (like latex rubber) but that pronunciation seems to be universally shunned but people who actually use Latex.

  • Are there old versions of Windows UX guidelines somewhere?

    - by Camilo Martin
    Since I've read Windows User Experience Interaction Guidelines (there's a PDF download avaliable) I've found it to be admirably self-deprecating, humbly pointing out their own horrible UI practices long scolded by Joel Spolsky. I'd like to know, however, what they had in mind while they made those mistakes. Is this (terrific) UX Guidelines document something new, or were there previous issues of such? If so, where can I find them? My prayers to Google yielded no leniency.

  • MySQL vs PostgreSQL for Web Applications

    - by cnu
    I am working on a web application using Python (Django) and would like to know whether MySQL or PostgreSQL would be better when deploying for production. In one podcast Joel said that he had some problems with MySQL and the data wasn't consistent. I would like to know whether someone had any such problems. Also when it comes to performance which can be easily tweaked?

  • SQL Server IS_NULLABLE

    - by J Harley
    Good Morning, Just a quick question what this field actually means? I am trying to create an export script which follows this standard: lname varchar(30) **NOT NULL**, So if last name is_nullable=yes then would I put NULL rather than NOT NULL at the *'d code. Many Thanks, Joel

  • hg serve simply hangs in terminal

    - by styx777
    I've started using Mercurial for my personal projects and I'm currently going through Joel's tutorial here: http://hginit.com/02.html The problem is when I type in hg serve in the terminal, it simply hangs. Other commands like hg init works perfectly. Anyone know what's going on? I installed mercurial by doing this: sudo apt-get install mercurial meld

  • ASP.NET MVC 2 - user defined database connection.

    - by J Harley
    Hello, I am looking to port my very basic DBMS software from classic ASP to ASP.net - however the user would need to input the connection details in order to connect to their specific DBMS server. Is this at all possible with ASP.NET MVC (very similar to DSN-less connections in ASP). Cheers, Joel

  • What was the single byte change to port WordStar from CP/M to DOS?

    - by amarillion
    I was re-reading Joel's Strategy Letter II: Chicken and Egg problems and came across this fun quote: In fact, WordStar was ported to DOS by changing one single byte in the code. (Real Programmers can tell you what that byte was, I've long since forgotten). I couldn't find any other references to this with a quick Google search. Is this true or just a figure of speech? In the interest of my quest to become a "Real Programmer", what was the single byte change?

  • Finding a Identity Specification using SQL

    - by J Harley
    Good Morning, I have an MS SQL database, of which there is a column that has an identity specification. However, if I do a SQL query such as: SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.Columns where TABLE_NAME = It doesn't tell me if the column is an identity specification - is there a query that will? Many Thanks, Joel

  • Is Unit Testing important?

    - by PieterG
    I've recently been catching up on my podcasts and reading and found this article from Joel Spolsky. The Question that I for all of you is the following. Is Unit Testing Important? What do you test? Do you write unit tests on all your projects? I suppose this question is a bit more of a poll on unit test coverage.

  • What's wrong with foreign keys?

    - by kronoz
    I remember hearing Joel mention in the podcast that he'd barely ever used a foreign key (if I remember correctly). However, to me they seem pretty vital to avoid duplication and subsequent data integrity problems throughout your database. Do people have some solid reasons as to why (to avoid a discussion in lines with SO principals)? Edit: "I've yet to have a reason to create a foreign key, so this might be my first reason to actually set up one."

  • jQuery $.ajax Not Working in IE8 but it works on FireFox & Chrome

    - by Sam3k
    I have the following ajax call which works perfectly in Firefox and Chrome but not IE: function getAJAXdates( startDate, numberOfNights, opts ) { var month = startDate.getMonth() + 1; var day = startDate.getDate(); var year = startDate.getFullYear(); var d = new Date(); var randNum = Math.floor(Math.random()*100000000); $.ajax({ type : "GET", dataType : "json", url : "/availability/ajax/bookings?rand="+randNum, cache : false, data : 'month='+month+'&day='+day+'&year='+year+'&nights='+numberOfNights, contentType : 'application/json; charset=utf8', success : function(data) { console.log('@data: '+data); insertCellData(data, opts, startDate); }, error:function(xhr, status, errorThrown) { console.log('@Error: '+errorThrown); console.log('@Status: '+status); console.log('@Status Text: '+xhr.statusText); } }); } I know for a fact that all the variables are passing the right content and $.ajax is indeed passing all the paramater/values. This is what I get on error: LOG: @Error: undefined LOG: @Status: parsererror LOG: @Status Text: OK I'm aware of the cache issue on IE and implemented a random paramater to clear it up. Finally these are the headers that are sent back from the backend: header('Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf8'); header("Cache-Control: no-cache"); header("Expires: 0"); header('Access-Control-Max-Age: 3628800'); header('Access-Control-Allow-Methods: GET, POST, PUT, DELETE');

  • mongodb: insert if not exists

    - by LeMiz
    Hello, Every day, I receive a stock of documents (an update). What I want to do is inserting each of them if it does not exists. I also want to keep track of the first time I inserted them, and the last time I saw them in an update. I don't want to have duplicate documents. I don't want to remove a document which has previously been saved, but is not in my update. 95% (estimated) of the records are unmodified from day to day. I am using the python driver (pymongo), for that matter. What I currently do is (pseudo-code): for each document in update: existing_document = collection.find_one(document) if not existing_document: document['insertion_date'] = now else: document = existing_document document['last_update_date'] = now my_collection.save(document) My problem is that it is very slow (40 mins for less than 100 000 records, and I have millions of them in the update). I am pretty sure there is something builtin for doing this, but the document for update() is mmmhhh.... a bit terse.... ( http://www.mongodb.org/display/DOCS/Updating ) Can someone give an advice on doing it faster ?

  • Highlighting dates between two selected dates jQuery UI Datepicker

    - by Ralph
    I have one datepicker with numberOfMonths set to 2. Arrival Date and Departure Date are determined using this logic (within onSelect): if ((count % 2)==0) { depart = $("#datepicker-1").datepicker('getDate'); if (arriv depart) { temp=arriv; arriv=depart; depart=temp; } $("#check-in").val($.datepicker.formatDate("DD, MM d, yy",arriv)); $("#check-out").val($.datepicker.formatDate("DD, MM d, yy",depart)); } else { arriv = $("#datepicker-1").datepicker('getDate'); depart = null; if ((arriv depart)&&(depart!=null)) { temp=arriv; arriv=depart; depart=temp; } $("#day-count").val(''); $("#check-in").val($.datepicker.formatDate("DD, MM d, yy",arriv)); $("#check-out").val($.datepicker.formatDate("DD, MM d, yy",depart)); } if(depart!=null) { diffDays = Math.abs((arriv.getTime() - depart.getTime())/(oneDay)); if (diffDays == 0) { $("#day-count").val((diffDays+1)+' Night/s'); } else { $("#day-count").val(diffDays+' Night/s'); } } Getting the number of days within these 2 dates has no problem What I want now is highlight those dates starting from the Arrival to Departure I tried working around the onSelect but had no luck. I am now using beforeShowDay to highlight these dates but I can't seem to figure it out Got a sample from here Basically, it is customized to highlight 11 or 12 days after the selected date (Here's the code from that link). $('#datePicker').datepicker({beforeShowDay: function(date) { if (selected != null && date.getTime() selected.getTime() && (date.getTime() - selected.getTime()) Since I am new to using the UI, and the logic is not clear to me yet, I can't seem to figure this out. Any ideas on how I can make this highlight dates between the Arrival and Departure using my aforementioned logic used in determining the two?

  • SQL - Count grouped entries and then get the max values grouped by date

    - by Marcus
    hello, I am out of any logic how to write the right sql statment. I've got a sqlite table holding every played track in a row with played date/time Now I will count the plays of all artists, grouped by day and then find the artist with the max playcount per day. I used this Query SELECT COUNT(ARTISTID) AS artistcount, ARTIST AS artistname,strftime('%Y-%m-%d', playtime) AS day_played FROM playcount GROUP BY artistname to get this result "93"|"The Skygreen Leopards"|"2010-06-16" "2" |"Arcade Fire" |"2010-06-15" "2" |"Dead Kennedys" |"2010-06-15" "2" |"Wolf People" |"2010-06-15" "3" |"16 Horsepower" |"2010-06-15" "3" |"Alela Diane" |"2010-06-15" "46"|"Motorama" |"2010-06-15" "1" |"Ariel Pink's Haunted" |"2010-06-14" I tried then to query this virtual table but I always get false results in artistname. SELECT MAX(artistcount), artistname , day_played FROM ( SELECT COUNT(ARTISTID) AS artistcount, ARTIST AS artistname,strftime('%Y-%m-%d', playtime) AS day_played FROM playcount GROUP BY artistname ) GROUP BY strftime('%Y-%m-%d',day_played) result in this "93"|"lilium" |"2010-06-16" "46"|"Wolf People"|"2010-06-15" "30"|"of Montreal"|"2010-06-14" but the artist name is false. I think through the grouping by day, it just use the last artist, or so. I tested stuff like INNER JOIN or GROUP BY ... HAVING in trial and error, I read examples of similar issues but always get lost in columnnames and stuff (I am a bit burned out) I hope someone can give me a hint. thanks m
