  • Creating a unique URL safe hash

    - by Ben Foster
    I want to hash/encode a unique integer (database ID) to create a similarly unique string. It needs to meet the following requirements: Must start with a letter or number, and can contain only letters and numbers. All letters in a container name must be lowercase. Must be from 3 through 63 characters long (although the shorter the better) The result does not need to be reversible, just repeatable - so a 1-way hash would be fine.

  • Table Valued UDF vs Views

    - by vaibhav
    I have never used UDF in sql server. Today I got to know that we can have functions which can return a table. So I just wanted to know can I use functions in place of views. If yes, which one is the better choice and why

  • Whats a valid strategy for a secure image upload from a flash client?

    - by WillyCornbread
    Hi all - I'm creating a flash application that will post images to a url for saving to disk/display later. I was wondering what are some suggested strategies for making this secure enough so that the upload is verified as coming from the application and not just some random form post. Is it reliable enough to check referring location realizing that I don't need bulletproof security, or perhaps setting authentication headers is a better strategy even though it seems unreliable from what I have read. Thanks for any advice - b

  • Parse XHTML using Ruby

    - by Anant
    Is there any way I can parse a remote html page, in Ruby, preferably using jQuery like selectors? For example, I could select all the div having a specific class, and get the content of all those elements in an array. I was trying to use Regex for this, but I think using XML parser would be better.

  • Does the openssl command line do key strengthening?

    - by chotchki
    If I run the openssl command line in hmac mode (as below), is the key used for the hmac used directly or is it hashed before using it as the key? echo "foo" | openssl dgst -sha256 -binary -hmac "test" | openssl base64 Similarly, when encrypting a file with openssl (as below)is the pass phrase hashed with the salt? (If so how is it done? A pointer to the right source file would be even better.) openssl enc -salt

  • How do I redirect example.com to example.com/subdirectory?

    - by Frode
    Hey, I’m trying to redirect example.com (and example.com/, www.example.com and www.example.com/) to example.com/subdirectory. I could do this easily using HTML but from what I read, it’s better to make a 301 redirect using Apache. However, I’m having a hard time finding documentation on how to do this.

  • What is the best way to flag some elements in MATLAB? using NaN or Inf? or something else?

    - by Kamran Bigdely Shamloo
    As you may know, in many occasions, there is a need to flag some elements of a matrix. For example when we have weighted adjacency matrix, and our graph is not fully connected, we have to flag some elements to show that there is no edge between those nodes. The question is how to do that? Is it better to put NaN or Inf on that elements in the matrix? or something elese(such as -1)?

  • Use hash or case-statement [Ruby]

    - by user94154
    Generally which is better to use?: case n when 'foo' result = 'bar' when 'peanut butter' result = 'jelly' when 'stack' result = 'overflow' return result or map = {'foo' => 'bar', 'peanut butter' => 'jelly', 'stack' => 'overflow'} return map[n] More specifically, when should I use case-statements and when should I simply use a hash?

  • Per-process CPU usage on Win95 / Win98 / WinME

    - by Hugh Allen
    How can you programmatically measure per-process (or better, per-thread) CPU usage under windows 95, windows 98 and windows ME? If it requires the DDK, where can you obtain that? Please note the Win9x requirement. It's easy on NT. EDIT: I tried installing the Win95/98 version of WMI, but Win32_Process.KernelModeTime and Win32_Process.UserModeTime return Null (as do most Win32_Process properties under win9x).

  • Temporary Onmouseover

    - by 2x2p1p
    Hi guys :) Css "over" selector applys a temporary style to an element, it isn't definitive: div:hover { background-color: red; } I can use the same thing with javascript but it is a bit complicate and impossible for several elements: var elem = document.getElementByTagName ("div")[0]; elem.onmouseover = function () { this.style.backgroundColor = "red"; } elem.onmouseout = function () { this.style.backgroundColor = "transparent"; } There is a better way ? Something like this: document.getElementByTagName ("div")[0].ontemporarymouseover = function () { // LoL this.style.backgroundColor = "red"; } Thanks

  • automatically execute an Excel macro on a cell change

    - by namin
    How can I automatically execute an Excel macro each time a value in a particular cell changes? Right now, my working code is: Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range) If Not Intersect(Target, Range("H5")) Is Nothing Then Macro End Sub where "H5" is the particular cell being monitored and Macro is the name of the macro. Is there a better way?

  • uses for dynamic scope?

    - by Stephen
    Hi, I've been getting my hands wet with emacs lisp, and one thing that trips me up sometimes is the dynamic scope. Is there much of a future for it? Most languages I know use static scoping (or have moved to static scoping, like Python), and probably because I know it better I tend to prefer it. Are there specific applications/instances or examples where dynamic scope is more useful?

  • What is Erlang's concurrency model actually ?

    - by arun_suresh
    I was reading a paper recently Why Events are Bad. The paper is a comparative study of Event based and thread based highly concurrent servers and finally concludes stating that Threads are better than events in that scenario. I find that I am not able to classify what sort of concurrency model erlang exposes. Erlang provides Light Weight Processes, but those processes are suspended most of the time until it has received some event/message of some sort. /Arun

  • Non-Standard widget size for Android

    - by heorling
    I have a use-case for a vertical 1x4 home screen widget on android. The supported size is 4x1 ie horizontal. Does anyone know if the vertical version can be implemented? I realize changing screen orientation would scrunch the widget together, which I'm fine with. Even better would be if there was an equivalent to "overflow hidden" in css. Has anyone come across a way to do this?

  • Lightweight CMS in PHP

    - by David
    Hi, I am building a site which will require some very limited content management for a client. There are only a few areas of the site which will require the client to be able to update the content themselves. Would it be better to create a very simple custom admin page for the client to log in and say add a news story etc or would it be best using a fully fledged CMS like Drupal etc which seems overkill to me.
