Zotero - A Web-Generation Research Tool - 0 views

  •  
    Impressive Firefox extension helps you collect bibliographic & research information from sites like Amazon, Library websites, Journal sites, etc.  The ultimate bibliography building tool: you no longer need to copy all this out of books or off web pages ... Zotero can export/import BibTeX, RIS, Refer/BibIX, RDF, MODS, etc. and can even create APA, MLA, or Chicago style citations pages for import (as RTF) into your favorite rich text editor!
  •  
    Imports bibliography data from an astonishing list of sites ( http://www.zotero.org/translators/ ) via RDF and microformats ( http://www.zotero.org/documentation/compatible_standards_and_software ).  It uses the mozStorage API (backed by a SQLite database), and it's all open source ( http://dev.zotero.org/docs/ ).

In Search of Excellent Requirements - 1 views

  • Consequently, it is not reasonable to expect us to make sound business or technical decisions on behalf of the customers, or to resolve conflicting requirements supplied by different end users, or to set priorities for the many requirements that might be collected.
  • We have finally reached the state where if no project champion can be found to see that the right system is built, we cancel the project.
  • The consequence of not explicitly discussing these quality tradeoffs is a surprise upon delivery, when the customer finds that his implicit quality attribute requirements have not been achieved
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • One way to reach an appropriate middle ground in the specification process is to conduct formal inspections of the SRS. A structured document like the IEEE SRS is readily inspected by the design team, the project champions, other representative users, and other software engineers who are not directly involved with the project
    • Kevin O'Neill
       
      sadly, this is something that is always left to the end to 'clean up'. Meaning, the spec is complete when the project is delivered versus kept up to date and in sync with what we are delivering.
  • A prototype is intended to answer specific questions about functionality or interaction styles. If you don't have any questions, don't bother with a prototype
  • Even in a small software group, a focus on accurately and completely capturing, documenting, and modeling the user requirements is a major contributor to building high quality information systems

Radiant CMS: Why Radiant? - 0 views

    • Kingdon Barrett
       
      I was hoping to provide a list of my blog posts from RSS feeds, as well as links to all of the articles that I have commented on with my friends' blogs. I could list all of my friends' blogs and scrape them periodically, but I was hoping for a solution that uses trackbacks, or whatever pingback-style facilities are available on my friends' blogs. Granted this type of support will vary from site to site, but it should be possible to build a complete publishing record automatically, with the standards we have available today. I posted a comment on otierney.net (my friend Tristan is up on all the latest web standards) and I noticed that his blogger is collecting URLs along with emails. I filled in the link to my Radiant CMS on nerdland.org but I'm afraid my blogger is not going to do anything to collect these pingbacks, when they are fired. Can anyone point out an example code segment or project that highlights this type of behavior?

"Your File Is In Use" Demystified - Shell Blog - 0 views

  •  
    In Vista, Windows Explorer is applying an implementation of the IFileIsInUse interface to the file it encountered.  Now the user knows which program has the file open and can close the file from that program and click the Try Again button to repeat the operation that was being performed.

SgmlReader 1.7.2 - Open Garden - 0 views

  • The original community around SgmlReader used to be hosted by GotDotNet, but is now being phased out.
  •  
    SgmlReader was a source reference assembly from Microsoft which allows parsing Html as Xml -- that is, it takes poor, and even invalid Html and converts it to XHtml and gives you an XmlReader or XmlDocument from it.

Emacs, TRAMP, Ubuntu « What You're Doing Is Rather Desperate - 2 views

  • edit your ~/.emacs to include the line: (setq tramp-default-method "ssh")
  •  
    Remote editing with ssh - no need to tunnel X11 over ssh. This reminds me of a question that puzzles me: for those of us that use multiple machines, is there a failsafe way to have a master .emacs file for them all? Where do folks store it? On a web server, ftp, NFS directory, a favourite home directory, or a USB stick? Is there a low effort way to sync it: rsync, unison, a custom shell or Emacs lisp script, or a manual scp?

Stevey's Blog Rants: Execution in the Kingdom of Nouns - 2006 - 0 views

  • For the lack of a horseshoe, EquestrianDoctor.getLocalInstance().getHorseDispatcher().shoot();
  • the stories all take a definite shape: object construction is the dominant type of expression, with a manager for each abstraction and a run() method for each manager. With a little experience at this kind of conceptual modeling, Java citizens realize they can express any story in this style.
  •  
    The nursery rhyme looks familiar, but how realistic is it? Smalltalk and Self appear at first glance to be in danger of this kind of horror, especially Smalltalk where every object has a class, yet a Smalltalk statement consists largely of verbs. Yegge seems to have missed an important detail in his analogy - verbs are not functions - they are symbols (selectors) that resolve to a function (method) when they are looked up (depending on ... whatever - Smalltalk the class of the receiver, CLOS the types of the arguments and so on). C and FORTRAN don't have verbs, they just have functions (actions).

utf 8 nbsp - RE: nbsp is not that hard, folks ; reply by: Américo Albuquerque... - 0 views

  • " " " " and "\u00A0" have nothing, NOTHING to do with UTF-8.
  • There is a character -- an abstract unit in a "script" (a writing system; we are using Latin right now) -- called NO-BREAK SPACE by the Unicode Standard and ISO/IEC 10646. Unicode and ISO/IEC 10646 assign this character an integer number, 160, which is A0 in hex.
  • UTF-8 is an encoding scheme that provides a way of representing any of the approximately 1.1 million possible abstract characters in Unicode as a sequence of 1 to 4 bytes.
  • ...8 more annotations...
  • The UTF-8 representation of the Unicode character 160 (no-break space), is the pair of bytes C2 A0, in that order.
  • This thing: \u00A0
  • the no-break space character
  • This thing:   or this thing:  
  • is to SGML applications like HTML and XML what \u00A0 is to Java & Python;
  • is called a character reference (or "numeric character reference").
  • This thing:  
  • is to SGML applications like HTML and XML an "entity reference";
