In a prior article on Oracle's Block Browser and Editor tool (BBED), the installation of the tool was covered. In this article, we'll look at starting a session using a simple database and see how to view data.
<b>Technology & Life Integration:</b> "Programming across multiple operating systems is easy. I do it. I have done it for several years. I don't need to have seperate code trees for each operating system. I have a single set of code that I work on and it compiles on different operating systems without having to modify the code!"
The benefits of using an MVC Framework is that it helps enforce a clean separation between the models, views, and controllers within a Web application.
<b>Ksplice:</b> "We think that it’s important for developers and system administrators to be more knowledgeable about the attacks that black hats regularly use to take control of systems, and so, today, we’re going to start from where we left off and go all the way to a working exploit for a NULL pointer dereference in a toy kernel module."
<b>Chao-Kuei's Notes: </b>"Human rights are gradually eroding at several fronts as international interest groups lobby and pressure governments all over the globe to 'protect copyright' using big-brother-like information and communication technologies (ICT)."
I began coding in in Python primarily where there is no type safety, then moved to C# and Java where there is. I found that I could work a bit more quickly and with less headaches in Python, but then again, my C# and Java apps are at much higher level of complexity so I have never given Python a true stress test I suppose.
The Java and C# camps make it sound like without the type safety in place, most people would be running into all sorts of horrible bugs left an right and it would be more trouble than its worth.
This is not a language comparison, so please do not address issues like compiled vs interpreted. Is type safety worth the hit to speed of development and flexibilty? WHY?
to the people who wanted an example of the opinion that dynamic typing is faster:
"Use a dynamically typed language during development. It gives you faster feedback, turn-around time, and development speed." -

Using either XNA OR just the usual c# win forms application, which would be the best way to create the feature that enables text messages to be sent from me to my friend over the internet?
I don't know if this matters or not, but I now have 3 Mobile Broadband internet... so it's like... Wireless internet, does that matter?
<b>Ubuntu UK Podcast:</b> "We interview the awesome Stuart Langridge and discuss the Ubuntu One Music Store, beta testing, record tokens, Rhythmbox, MP3s, Britney Spears, file syncing, customer service, getting music into the store and Severed Fifth, Frequently Asked Questions, vinyl, reaching ‘real’ people and Shot of Jaq."
In this economy, IT professionals have to make smart choices when it comes to spending money on developer tools. Does the new Intellisense feature of SQL Server 2008 Management Studio make third party intelligent code completion tools like Red Gate SQL Prompt obsolete?
Seeking to pry market share from rivals Microsoft and Oracle, IBM Thursday launched a new version of its database software that bundles more of the autonomic capabilities the Armonk, N.Y. firm has been touting as a differentiator from the competition.
This white paper tells the story of how three Intel employees optimized DreamWorks Animation’s rendering, animation, and special effects applications without recompiling or relinking.
<b>Ian's Thoughts:</b> "I regularly sit in the #ubuntu channel on the Freenode network helping folks with Ubuntu issues. One of the things I see people often doing is attempting to install software from source before researching easier installation methods."
<b>eSecurity Planet:</b> "Symantec is ramping up its encryption software portfolio with the acquisitions of PGP and GuardianEdge for $300 million and $70 million, respectively."
Bash error messages, like so many error messages, can be more cryptic than helpful. But the good news is bash has a built-in mechanism for creating your own customized error messages, and you don't have to be an ace programmer to do it. Ubuntu and openSUSE already use this; Akkana Peck shows us how to do it ourselves.
<b>Phoronix:</b> "According to the release plans, the release of X Server 1.8 should take place, and while in reality it will likely not be released today, its release is coming soon. When this release does arrive, it will add a new set of features to the X.Org stack and a number of other minor improvements and bug-fixes."
<b>LinuxLinks:</b> " Now, let's scrutinize the 8 games at hand. For each game we have compiled its own portal page, providing screenshots of the game in action, a full description of the game, with an in-depth analysis of the features of the game, together with links to relevant resources and reviews."
