  1. Re:If... on AOL Lays Off 50 Netscape Coders · · Score: 1

    Learn the standars and use them. Use Mozilla in your development phase. Save some time with things like View Selection Source, DOM-Inspector, JavaScript Debugger, LiveHTTPHeaders et cetera. Use this saved time to test with IE and add some hacks to make everything look and work the same.

    It's just so easy and it works (I do it this way). And you don't have to complain about these people using IE.

  3. Not as freezesafe as I thought on QNX: When an OS Really, Really Has to Work · · Score: 2, Interesting

    About one year ago an other student and I tried the QNX live CD. Neutrino looked quite fine and it was an interesting OS.

    But after doing a floodping at the QNX machine it stopped doing anything. I don't know if it crashed but even the window is able to handle these floodpings.

    However maybe it got fixed - I'll test it again in the next days.

  4. Re:Why WOULD you use classes and objects? on PHP MySQL Website Programming · · Score: 1

    Let's face it, by the time you've declared you classes, instanced everything a procedural approach would probably have executed and be wating for the next client...
    You could preload your code (and some kind of pre-compile) with a php script cache software like PHPA. BTW in PHP4 an object ist like an array with a table of its own functions-scope (its methods). Thus oop in PHP4 is pretty fast. PHP5 has a little bit more overhead (an object is a handle refering to the object table) but with many advantages and if it's too slow use something like phpa again.

  6. Re:Migrating to Apache 2.x on News from ApacheCon US 2002 · · Score: 2

    I'm wondering how PHP on Win32's Apache works if the libaries aren't thread safe. Apache on Win32 use two processes - some kind of watchdog and the multithreaded webserver - and it runs fine with PHP.

    To speak for PHP and Apache 2 support: IMHO the currently need their time to get to PHP 5/Zend 2.

  8. Re:This is great on Ogg Support For iTunes · · Score: 1

    I'm using Ogg for a while now. With 80kbps it is a least as good as MP3 with 128 which means it is "better enough". It means I can save much more on this cheap 64MB cards used in MP3-players.

    And OGG sounds in general better. I never had this eeks like in some MP3s and if there were some things badly converted it was just some missing things in the sound instead of distrubing sounds.

    I thinks this should be enough for the normal user.

  11. Maybe interested in a HTTP-server in PHP? on Code That Pushed the Language Envelope? · · Score: 4, Interesting

    The other day I played around with PHP's socket-extension. After some reading I thought about a normal server-service I could try. A webserver came to my mind. So I made up a HTTP-server/daemon in PHP. PHP should be an extension to a webserver not a webserver itself, that's why it might fit into this topic.

    I played around with it and tested it with apache benchmark. As I'm able to handle multiple request it got pretty fast and stable - even faster then pure apache (no wonder - it has more features).

    The advantage of this webserver is, you don't need any php-optimizer as everything in your application gets includes in the webserver and loaded with it. If anyone wants the code just tell me ...

  12. Re:I hope that they don't package everything. on Debian, Past Present & Future · · Score: 1

    I think the only working solution would be something like detailed categories with good names (not php/postnuke/plugins - this should be under php/cms). A voting in this categories should be made possible so you open php/cms and see "must users found postnuke the best, second rank to phpnuke, also avaible: ..." This should be supported in apt-get too. Sometimes it gets really hard to guess the package name. I'm sure many before me had such ideas, but no one has really done it ...

    I really hate this install comparisons. How often do you install a new system? Once a half year? Or once a year? How often to you use your system. Everyday? You see the point. If my mum tells me her system is fubar she calls me to install a new system. She doesn't call me everyday when she wants to use the system. Usability in daily work is much more important especially for the simple-minded user.
