How to Write Crap Code in C# - Anti-Patterns for PerformanceThis talk is all about writing performant code, not the other kinds of monstrosities that you might regard as crap code. We’ll leave obfustucated code to the Perl programmers, C# isn’t very good at it. Managed languages such as C# are often criticised for being slower than their counterparts such as C++. Often these claims are unfounded. I’ve worked on several projects where performance has been a problem and often people don’t understand why their code is running slowly. Typically they’ll blame the .NET runtime as the problem’s obvious there rather than in their own code. So what sort of performance pitfalls await the unwary? Inspired by the concept of proof by contradiction I decided to take a program and ignore Microsoft best-practises to see "How Slow It Could Go."
I’ve written a simple application to analyse the complete works of Shakespeare that will allow me to demonstrate various techniques. The analysers have been written as plug-in modules so can I select one, click Analyse and it returns statistics for the text. All the analysers implement the same functionality, some more quickly than others.
The operation is very simple. Each Shakespeare play is a separate textfile, the program scans all the text files in a folder. Splits the text into lines, removes any punctation and converts everything to lowercase. Each word is taken in turn and looked up in a master dictionary. If we have already encountered the word we increment the count of the number of times it has occurred, ifMSI MS-1029 15.4?

You may need your Internet access information. The P-660HW is referred to as “the Prestige” in this guide. See your User’s Guide for background information on all features.
This guide is divided into the following sections.
1 Hardware Connections
2 Configuration for Internet Access
3 Wireless Configuration
4 NAT
5 Firewall
6 Troubleshooting
1 DSL: Connect the Prestige to a telephone jack using a telephone wire.
2 LAN: Use an Ethernet cable to connect a computer to a LAN 10/100M port for initial configuration and/or Internet access.
3 POWER: Use the included power adaptor to connect the POWER socket to an appropriate power source (see the User’s Guide for power adaptors specifications by region).
After you’ve made the connections, push in the power button to turn on the Prestige. Look at the front panel LEDs. The PWR/SYS LED blinks while performing system testing. The PWR/SYS and/or WLAN LEDs then turn steady on if the testing is successful. The LAN LED turns on if the LAN port is properly connected.

We cover how to use it with both native plug-ins and script-based plug-ins, and assume that you are familiar with the general principles of how to write Desktop plug-ins. The latter part of this document describes methods for issuing Desktop search queries using HTTP and XML. This XML-based API is supported by both the Windows and Mac OS X versions of Google Desktop. Mac OS X support was added in Google Desktop Mac 1.0.3.
You can only use the Query API if you have registered with it and thus obtained a Query API registration cookie. Note that this is in addition to the general registration of your plug-in with Google Desktop.
There are two types of Query API registration cookies, read-only and read-write. Usually, you'll only need a read-only cookie. The read-write cookie is only needed when you remove an item from the Google Desktop index. We recommend that your plug-in encrypt the registration cookie when it saves it, and, of course, be able to decrypt it when you pass it to the various Query API methods and objects.
You'll need a global identifier (GUID) for your plug-in to pass to the registration method. You can use a tool such as guidgen.exe to generate.

Commonly this is used to allow an animated character to pick up and put down objects. It is also very useful when controlling the binding and interaction of two molecular structures in a scientific animation. In Maya, the easiest way to achieve dynamic parenting is through the use of constraints.
This lesson will go through several variations of dynamic parenting situations as a means to inspire you to develop your own creative solutions to the problem. As always, there are a million ways to achieve something in Maya, and only 500,000 of those ways are a bad idea.
Point Constraint: One or more other objects control any or all of one object’s translation channels.
Orient Constraint: One or more other objects control any or all of one object’s rotation channels.
Parent Constraint: One or more other objects control any or all of one object’s translation and rotation (but not scale) channels.
Note that the Maintain Offset option will allow you to maintain the controlled object’s current position at the time these constraints are applied.
Other constraints include Geometry, Normal, Tangent, Pole Vector, Aim, and Scale.

• sculptor-helloworld-parent - Only a maven project for building the other parts.
• sculptor-helloworld - Business tier. EJB project containing the services and domain objects.
• sculptor-helloworld-web - Presentation tier. Web application with CRUD GUI.
• sculptor-helloworld-ear - EAR package of the deployable application.
Setup maven projects
We start with creating a script that calls the 4 maven archetypes to generate the project structures and maven build files. It also does an inital build and generation of Eclipse project with the maven eclipse plugin. Of course you can execute these commands one by one from the command prompt, but the script is useful when doing this several times.
Copy the following script to sculptor-archetypes.cmd, located in the root of your Eclipse workspace. Adjust paths to your environment.

Now it’s a very rare day when these two constituencies can agree on anything, so imagine my surprise when both camps reached a consensus on the positive impacts that Web 2.0 services will have on non-voice revenues.
The operators expressed their envy and excitement about the pace of innovation and consumer adoption of Web 2.0 services on the internet, and with certainty predicted good fortunes and optimism for the entire value chain when these Web 2.0 services have been migrated to mobile.
Indeed this group isn’t alone in its optimism for this “Web 2.0 to Mobile” migration strategy. It seems not a month went by in 2007 without an announcement by a handset vendor, a mobile operator, a media company, or hundreds of entrepreneurial software startups, investing in technical and marketing initiatives and ultimately clamoring to align themselves with one of the Web 2.0 superstars.
Okay I admit it. I just don’t get it. Perhaps I’m slow because I’m Canadian, but I just don’t understand the business rationale or source of optimism related to this “Web 2.0 to Mobile” migration strategy.
If this optimism is being driven by the scale of revenues that Web 2.0 companies generate from advertising on the internet, and how this can in some shape or form lead to a new revenue stream for mobile
