How to Use Flash Video (FLV) Cue Points
by Spone
& 1 other
(via)
Video cue points can be used for all sorts of things in Flash. Typical uses involve triggering other activity, such as peripheral movie clips whose animations enhance the video content, or triggering text, such as closed captions. I’ve seen some developers in the Adobe forums even use a cue point to signal that a video clip has reached its end. Strictly speaking, cue points aren’t needed for that last goal (see “How to Determine the Completion of a Flash Video (FLV) File”), but it’s certainly a possible way to go.
If you’re interested in cue points yourself, but don’t know where to begin, let’s dive in.

by cascamorto
inSSIDer is an award-winning free Wi-Fi network scanner for Windows Vista and Windows XP. Because NetStumbler doesn t work well with Vista and 64-bit XP we built an open-source Wi-Fi network scanner designed for the current generation of Windows operating systems. A year later inSSIDer was discussed by Lifehacker and Tekzilla Benefits Inspect your WLAN and surrounding networks to troubleshoot competing access points. Use Windows Vista and Windows XP 64-bit. Uses the Native Wi-Fi API. Track the strength of received signal in dBm over time. Filter access points in an easy to use format. Highlight access points for areas with high Wi-Fi concentration.

SearchWiki de Google s'enrichit d'une liste de favoris - Abondance : Référencement et moteurs de recherche
by srcmax
(via)
Google teste actuellement une option baptisée "Preferred Sites" en conjonction avec son outil collaboratif SearchWiki. Elle permet de fournir une liste de sites web que vous appréciez plus spécifiquement et auxquels vous désirez donner un coup de "boost" dans les résultats de recherche que vous affichez sur Google (si vous les consultez avec votre compte Google ouvert). Les changements ne seront pris en compte que pour vos résultats, pas ceux des autres internautes pour la même requête (même si on peut penser qu'il s'agira là d'un signal intéressant en termes de "TustRank" pour le moteur).

As ultrasound travels, air distorts the sound wave, creating audible frequencies. The correct ultrasound signal, Pompei suggests, can produce any kind of audible sound.

by karlcow
Across three days, the scrying workshop will explore and construct city-wide EM phenomena within the data space domain, examining techniques of digital forensics, of signal archaeology overlapping with contemporary artistic concerns. The scrying platform, an open hardware project concerned with the design and implementation of low power (enabling long-term, solar-powered urban installation) devices interfacing code and EM practice, will be used during the workshop.

PEAR :: Package :: System_Daemon
by kasi77
(via)
System_Daemon is a PHP class that allows developers to create their own daemon
applications on Linux systems. The class is focussed entirely on creating
spawning standalone daemons, and for example includes:
1. Methods to generate OS-specific startup-files (init.d) (currently only
Debian/Ubuntu are supported), so that your application gets started on
reboot as well.
2. Methods for logging purposes
3. Simple syntax
4. Support for PEAR's Log package
5. Can run with or without PEAR (PEAR adds more elegance & functionality)
6. Default signal handlers, but optionally reroute signals to your own
handlers.
7. Log levels comply with PEAR_LOG_ levels but are called SYSTEM_DAEMON_LOG_
for (in)dependency reasons
8. Set options like max RAM usage
