Amazon RDS, MySQL, Hmm?

by marco
BTW if you follow their "use mysqldump" model for pushing data into the service, remember that --single-transaction will allow you to do a hot backup. There is no need to lock up your current database. I am still appalled at how few people know that. Years ago we should have renamed "mysqldump" to "mysqlbackup" and defaulted the settings for Innodb.

Between Mission Statement and Parametric Model: Places: Design Observer

by karlcow

The project also didn’t much consider the crews of low-wage farm workers that would be needed to plant and harvest the crops of the ambitious vertical farm; presumably these crews would share elevators and stairwells with the residents of the market-rate condos above.

Manque de culture des étudiants, environnement protégé, vouloir concevoir plus vert et plus social mais sans avoir la connaissance du terrain. Shahn dans « The Shape of Content » recommandait à tous les étudiants d'art d'aller travailler dans les champs pour comprendre la terre, sa couleur, sa matière, l'aspect social.

Are Your Controllers Playing Music?

by ms_michel

The metaphor that I like to use when describing MVC to them is that of an orchestra. In it, the individual musicians are the model, the conductor is the controller and the audience is the view.

Traffic Server is finally here | Ogre.com

by karlcow

# A scalable threaded asynchronous state machine model. On a typical setup, 2 or 3 threads per core is enough to drive a large amount of traffic.

# Feature-rich HTTP/1.0 and HTTP/1.1 support. We fair well in various tests like CoAdvisor.

# Plugin architecture, making it easy (well, easier) to extend and customize your server.

# Well documented.

RFID Global Forum

A massive increase in international co-operation and significant investment in awareness-building and training are essential if the concept of an Internet of Things (IoT) is to be turned into a meaningful reality, says a European Union-funded project in its final report, “RFID and the Inclusive Model for the Internet of Things.”

Top reasons your CSS columns are messed up - Warpspire

by mozkart & 1 other (via)
I believe the recent surge in popularity of CSS frameworks comes from a lack of basic understanding of the CSS box model and how it’s implemented across browsers. I wanted to share with you some quick tips on how to avoid easy pitfalls so you can create your own CSS framework in no time flat, without all the cruft of having ten thousand column combinations available. Keeping these quick tips in mind at all times will allow you to do something I like to call defensive coding — and really that’s all CSS frameworks are: defensively coded snippets of CSS.

Utilisation d'une "View Model" pour gérer les formulaires élaborés, dans lesquels les éléments du formulaire ne pas strictement calqués sur le modèle de la base de données.

No country has perfect system, but there are lessons to learn

by medtours06
Tackling the high cost of health care is politically bruising and difficult work around the world. Among developed countries, only the Norwegians rival our level of spending. The French wrestle with rising costs every year. The Canadians are searching for a better model, and have had their eyes on France. But for all their troubles, the French and the Canadians - two bogeymen in the American reform debate - spend much less and live longer than we Americans.

Internet Archive: A Future for Books -- BookServer

PragDave: Annotate Models Plugin

by karlcow

Enter annotate models, a really trivial Rails plugin I hacked up in the plane back from the first No Fluff of the year. The plugin adds a comment block to the top of each model file, documenting the schema.

Rails vs Grails vs Django models - Peter Krantz

by karlcow

in Rails, parts of the model design is actually stored in the database schema instead of in the Ruby code. I have started adding comments in the Rails model classes to be able to remember what properties they have without peeking in the Db. Typically I have a number of half-baked projects on my laptop and from time to time I forget what they do and these comments help me remember.

Marshall Alexander - Paper Engineer

by sbrothier & 4 others
I am a Dutch paper engineer, based in Arnhem, and my work mainly focuses on the creation of papertoys. I either create completely new characters from scratch or I transform existing characters into papermodels. My speciality is one-piece papertoys, models that consist of a single flat piece of paper, which by intricate folding is transformed into a 3-dimensional model. I also create more complex templates consisting of several parts that are glued together to construct the final model. I've have done commissioned work for the toy industry, for promotional purposes and for books and magazines. Growing up in the seventies and eighties, my personal work is heavily inspired by retro design, videogames, movies, bright plastic toys and TV cartoons. Most of this work can be downloaded for free from my site. So get your knives and glue out, download some of the models and start building. Enjoy!

JavaZone 2009, Qi4j and the NoSQL movement

by night.kame

If you have an EventSourcing architecture, based on Qi4j, this cost should be minimal, but if you want to DIY then it might be a quite considerable. An important point that Trond makes is that this model makes it much easier to have a domain model which you can evolve without disturbing other clients, as they will NOT be integrating with the application store as such, but will instead be working with the event stream.

Le mouvement NoSQL aka je reviens 30 ans en arrière et je remets tout dans un gros bloc clef-valeur est bien mignon, mais c'est bien tant qu'on reste chez soi et qu'on fait tout tout seul. Sinon on se retrouve à multiplier les interfaces et des routines d'import-export.

Hardware interrupt - IDE ATA and ATAPI disks use PIO mode after multiple time-out or CRC errors occur * In Windows XP and Windows Server 2003, this time-out value is always 10 seconds.

by decembre
* An alternate, less-aggressive policy is implemented to reduce the transfer mode (from faster to slower DMA modes, and then eventually to PIO mode) on time-out and CRC errors. The existing behavior is that the IDE/ATAPI Port driver (Atapi.sys) reduces the transfer mode after any 6 cumulative time-out or CRC errors. When the new policy is implemented by this fix, Atapi.sys reduces the transfer mode only after 6 consecutive time-out or CRC errors. This new policy is implemented only if the registry value that is described later in this article is present. To implement the alternate behavior (reducing the transfer mode after six consecutive time-out or CRC errors instead of after six cumulative time-out or CRC errors), you must modify the registry as described below after you apply the hotfix..

by fxbis & 2 others
Unknown Device Identifier enables you to identify the yellow question mark labeled Unknown Devices in Device Manager. And reports you a detailed summary for the manufacturer name, OEM name, device type, device model and even the exact name of the unknown devices. With the collected information, you might contact your hardware manufacturer for support or search the Internet for the corresponding driver with a simple click. With this utility, you might immediately convert your unidentified unknown devices into identified known devices and find proper driver on the Internet and contact the hardware device manufacturer or vender. Known devices recognized by Microsoft Windows will also be analyzed independent of the operating system.
