My first iPhone app - for JavaZone 2010 is now available via the app store.
JavaZone 2010 runs from 8th-9th September 2010 in the Oslo Spektrum.
This app provides access to the agenda for JavaZone and allows the user to mark sessions as favourites which can then be viewed separately (this can be used e.g. as My Programme or similar).
I was down at Trafikanten today to discuss Flexus ticket payment - money taken but no ticket :(
Apparently - I was the third person that day with this issue. Not exactly reassuring.
That said - the system is apparently clever enough that it can notice within a day or so a payment that it can't relate back to a ticket on a card, and will pay it back automatically. So - I should see it back in the next day - if not - I have a form to send in to claim it.
Tried to load a new month card onto my flexus card this morning. The ticket machine at Blindern was "Not in use" - but the one at Forskningsparken was active.
Insert flexus card - order a month card - adult price - pay by card.
Swipe the bank card and enter PIN - payment terminal says "Godkjent" (approved).
Ticket machine says "Betaling avvist" (payment refused).
Nothing Trafikanten can do until the payment goes from an anonymous reservation on my account to an actual transaction - and it's going to take another visit to Trafikanten in the centre of town too.
Have moved comments (currently just for blog posts) here over to disqus - gives people far more options of commenting without having to register here.
Old comments have been migrated over to disqus.
This drives me nuts. Forms that simply reject e-mail addresses with a + in them (perfectly valid according to the standards/RFC's - see http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2822.html 3.2.4 Atom - definition of atext).
Just updated the 120Gb slim PS3 to the latest 3.30 update.
After the update neither of the sixaxis controllers or the BD remote could get any kind of response wirelessly. The controllers worked fine over USB.
No reset seemed to help.
However - the following worked fine.
Ruby on Rails offers the ability to respond to a given request with different types depending on the URL.
For example - http://server/controller.html gives HTML where http://server/controller.pdf sends a PDF file.
However - what happens if the URL is just http://server/controller ? Well then rails will use the HTTP_ACCEPT header sent by the browser (at least in 2.3.x - haven't tested other versions).
So - when adding support for /controller.xls it seemed a little strange that all users apart from IE got the HTML page where IE8 (I suspect more but have only tested with v8) got the excel file.
I have a struts2 (2.1.6) based webapp which has two languages - english and norwegian. The default language for the app is norwegian - the application server (glassfish 2.1) is running under the english locale.
It didn't seem to matter what value I passed in to the request_locale parameter - I always got english.
Thursday the 11th February - the router from my ISP (NextGenTel) suddenly entered a constant restart loop. Start, find DSL, find settings, connect, 2 sec or so uptime, reboot and off we go again.
We've been investigating and now have found what starts the cycle but have no idea how or why - it just seems really odd ;)
The Pro series of NAS from ReadyNAS (Netgear) support iSCSI out of the box. But the NV+ 4disk unit does not. However - a third party plugin is available. Let's look at what is needed to get iSCSI connections between the ReadyNAS NV+ and an iMac running Snow Leopard.
