How to fry a motherboard in 2 easy steps.... Or....everything you wanted to know about electricity but where afraid to ask.......YIKES Seems for whatever reason my motherboard decided that yesterday was a good day to give up the ghost...shuffle off it's im-mortal coil....become an un-motherboard...etc.... Spent ALL day re-building the system. Thank goodness for backups. I've been a software developer for about 18 years now. In that time I've had just about every possible disaster I care to think about (and some I'd just rather not). Everything from bottles of coke spillt inside a case (*shudder*) to my dog running by my desk, getting caught on a cable and destroying my monitor. Out of this I've learned one major lesson.....Make Sure you have an up to date backup. For some odd reason those disasters never seem to pick convenient times to rear their ugly fiendish heads. So I take yesterdays happening in a laid back manner because (other then the cost of the motherboard and the time it took to re-build everything) I didn't lose anything...this time. As for which motherboard did I buy? I ended up getting a Gigabyte GA-7VRXP board as it was the one recommended on Tom's Hardware page. I also took advantage of the fact that it has built in RAID-0 support and striped two 40 gigabyte drives (actually one is a 60 but because of the striping is now considered a 40...). The system is fast, stable and so far doesn't have any smoke coming out of it.....further updates as our story progresses....hehe |

JBoss 3.0 From PSquad's Corner : Just spent some play time with JBoss 3.0.0 final. Wow, I must say, I'm very impressed. Not only did all my modules that worked in 2.4.4 deploy with no tweaks, the entire thing is FAST. Like... REALLY fast. Here are some VERY rough numbers when generating 1000 unique keys using an EJB-based sequence utility: JBoss 2.4.4: ~600 keys/secJBoss 3.0.0: ~1300 keys/secOrion: ~1900 keys/secWebLogic 7: ~900 keys/sec Now, these are very very very far from conclusive test results. They are running under no transaction context (I didn't post Pramati because it "cheats" and doesn't even save the changes, so it flies through the test). There has been no optimization, and the test is so simple it's stupid. But it does show the general coding quality and speed the developers of said products were able to do "out-of-the-box". Anyway, I thought it was interesting at least. OSCore, OSUser, and OSWorkflow all run on JBoss 3.0.0 now too, which is great news! |

The Internet as a Pyramid Scheme... Read this interesting article about the internet bubble. It provides a very intriguing perspective on the whole process and what drove it. |

An Interesting Comment from an Dynamo User... I got this in reference to my "Tomcat is Dead" rant: Well, in defense of Dynamo, Tomcat doesnot have the Caching elements. Try Tomcat + JBoss and You will be closer. Do Jetty + JBoss as an alternative. The predeployed version of Catalina that comes w/ JBoss is pretty good. It supports the servlet spec (2.3) and the auto deploy from JBOss is nice. I also have a trick to speed up redeploying JSPs: Bash script follows. Some part of it is custom to my project. #!/bin/sh { if [ -n $1 ] then FILE_TO_COPY=$1 else FILE_TO_COPY=activepca.ear fi if [ -n $2 ] then cd $2 else cd $WEB fi DEPLOY_DIR=$JBOSS/tmp/deploy/Default/$FILE_TO_COPY/ WEB_DIR=$DEPLOY_DIR`ls $DEPLOY_DIR | grep web` for SOURCE_FILE in `find . -name "*.jsp"` do cp $SOURCE_FILE $WEB_DIR/$SOURCE_FILE done } This will copy over all of your jsp files into the temporary directory created by JBoss keeping you from having to redeploy. Thanks!!! That certainly IS useful. |

The rumors of Real Network's Death have been greatly exagerated Saw this post on John Robb's Radio Weblog : Whoa. Real Networks is about to die. I just upgraded my computer, and therefore I want to install a new Real player (reluctantly). So I go to the corporate site. All I can find is a small link to the premium Real One that requires a credit card to use (although it says free). Finito. Actually you have to search real hard but there's a link to the Free Player after you click on the Free Player button. If you click anywhere else you won't in fact get the Free Player as you'll have to pay and paying dictates that it isn't free. Does that clear it up? hehe |

Resistance is Futile.... Microsoft seeks converts to .Net - seems that JUMP has been renamed JLCA (Java Language Conversion Assistant). I wonder if this new beta still only converts Java 1.1.8 source (which I'd suggest isn't really that useful for anyone). [rebelutionary] Because as you must know by now you can ONLY build Web Services in .NET. That's according to the $200,000,000.00 marketting campaign anyway..... Why would anyone want to do this? I can see it from a conversion issue I suppose (Company B wants to use Company A's web app but is running on the .Net platform). I'd think though that once Company B realized that Company A didn't have to shell out mega bucks for the server, database and programming talent they'd just switch over to the app server Company A was using....but then again I may just be wrong. hehe |

My VERY first Story.... Categories, Hierarchies and the GUI that is the browser. The poignant tale of java geek and his trials and tribulations on presenting a hierarchal category list to the user in some meaningful way within the browser all the while fighting off the fiendish minions of sir limiting browser interface. Don't worry...it's NOT a story about a man named Brady.....*phew*.... |

There's a pretty interesting article on Open Source and specifically a J2EE Weblogger named Roller here. |

Mono....you can't get THIS version from kissing.... Anyone know what's happening with Mono? There's a an article written by Miguel de Icaza and Brian Jepson here but that's from January. I'd love to try C# but am resisting the temptation because it means I'd have to start messing with my main development box. Just not going to happen. |

Morons Inc.... [Gordon Weakliem's Radio Weblog] posted: Morons.org. Found in My Neighborhood: Morons Dot Org. Is this one of those things like AARP that I get an automatic membership to when I've reached a certain point in my life? I'm going to have to anser "Yes" and just leave it at that. Move along, nothing to see.... |
