Code from an English Coffee Drinker: Disposable Memories
http://englishjavadrinker.blogspot.com/2012/03/disposable-memories_04.html
Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! This post is going to be a very technical look at GATE. S memory consumption. This will involve discussion of Java's class loading mechanism and garbage collection. If none of that interests you, or if that first sentence didn't make sense, then can I make a friendly suggestion that you stop reading about now! Exception in thread "main" java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: PermGen space. This all means that the...

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! CORPSE: COld stoRage backuP SoftwarE. I've recently started using Amazon Glacier. To store the backup of last resort. Of all my digital photos (I've discussed the motivation behind this on my other blog. A quick web search will bring up links to quite a few different tools for using Glacier. I'm currently uploading my data using SAGU. And b) using git. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Quick As A Flash.

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! Arduino Without The IDE. Some of you may remember that I've previously blogged about shrinking down an Arduino. By buying the ATmega328P-PU. Project supports compiling Arduino code, uploading it to an Arduino, and has a serial monitor as well. As the project name suggests this is all implemented as a classic Makefile. Silence, Most Definitely, Isn't Golden. I travel quite a bit for work, which means I ...

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! To Track, Or Not To Track, That Is The Question. If you read any of my other blogs, then you may well be aware that I've recently opened a shopfront on Shapeways. To make a few 3D models available for sale. While I really like this feature of Shapeways I wanted to customize the experience a little and so built a seperate, more customizable, shopfront. The first problem I faced was that I couldn't get G...

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! In Out, In Out, Shake It All About. In the very abstract sense text analysis can be divided into three main tasks; load some text, process it, export the result. Out of the box GATE. Both the GUI and the API) provides excellent support for both loading documents and processing them, but until now we haven't provided many options when it comes to exporting processed documents. Class Before we go any fur...

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! Back To Front But Functional. While the circuit required for programming an ATmega328P-PU chip (i.e. a standalone Arduino) is fairly simply (regardless of whether you are running at 8MHz. Obviously I don't want to solder an ATmega328P-PU to the shield as that would defeat the purpose, so I've added a 28pin DIP socket. Double The Speed For Just 35p. In my previous post. For example. In these cases r...

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! At Sixes And Sevens. At work we are slowly getting ready for a major new release of GATE. The tests in question. Are all part of a single standard JUnit. Test suite that was originally written back in 2001 and which have been running perfectly ever since. Essentially these tests run the main ANNIE. You can probably already hear alarm bells ringing. For those of you that don't know what unit testing...

Code from an English Coffee Drinker. Rather than bore my family with code snippets I'll post them here! Over on one of my other blogs I recently wrote a post. About a Hummingbird Hawk-Moth which I'd seen in the garden. This post included an animated GIF of the moth in flight. I included an animated GIF rather than a normal video because I'd had problems with the camera and the longest video I manged to shoot before the moth flew away contained just 14 frames. As you can see this works to produce an anima...
