Steven 'lazalong' Gay's blog: UwAmp - Wamp Server with Apache MySQL PHP and SQLite
http://lazalong.blogspot.com/2009/11/uwamp-wamp-server-with-apache-mysql-php.html
Steven 'lazalong' Gay's blog. Friday, November 20, 2009. UwAmp - Wamp Server with Apache MySQL PHP and SQLite. For a small project I need to have a WAMP. Which is a LAMP. Solution for my WinXP). So I took a quick look on wikipedia Wamp comparison table. But since I reinstalled recently my pc and I used until now xammp. I wanted to see if there was another easier solution and I found UwAmp. It is so small and easy to use that it is frightening. Change PHP version in one click to test compatibility. No nee...

Steven 'lazalong' Gay's blog. Tuesday, April 29, 2008. Why reinvent the wheel again and again? Reading this post " Get that job at Google. On Stevey blog's made me wonder why we always reinvent the wheel in the software industry. At one point he says the interviewers usually ask to implement a well known basic algorithm (tree, sorting, .). Why? Do they expect that rooting learning existing algorithms makes a good programmer? Said differently: Do you really ask a Chief how to build pans, knifes or an oven?

Steven 'lazalong' Gay's blog: Obama versus McCain
http://lazalong.blogspot.com/2008/11/obama-versus-mccain.html
Steven 'lazalong' Gay's blog. Monday, November 3, 2008. One point I don’t understand is why all the attention is focused on one guy (Obama or McCain). A hundred year ago it was possible for the President to understand and study all the consequences of a law or decision he must make. Not anymore. The real persons that have the power are the “shadow men” - personal advisers, personal “friends”, high officials preparing reports, etc. The only measure that must, can and that both promised to do it is to amel...

Steven 'lazalong' Gay's blog. Thursday, September 4, 2008. I created my company: www.dystopiastudios.com. What can I say? It seems a bit surealistic that I did it after the ages I dream of it. I think I deserve my last calm evening for the next few years :D. Btw I trademarked the name "dystopia studios" :D. Now I must think about a nice logo. Posted by Steven 'lazalong' Gay.

Chris' Blog: System framework improvements
http://chris-jones-uk.blogspot.com/2008/09/system-framework-improvements.html
Tuesday, 9 September 2008. The System's code has had a lot of iterations to it which i do wish i could have gotten to quicker, but it's definitely worth it. It is now a lot slimmer, removing two classes (four source files) without losing any features. As it stands we now have:. TaskThread - Wraps a thread and provides processing of tasks. SystemGroup - Manages a group of System's and enforces a specific start up and tear down sequence for each System registered to it, as well as periodical updates (ticks).

Monday, 20 October 2008. I haven't blogged in a while because I've been busy with uni and trying to get as much programming done as i can. I've been working on the processor detection code as it is very important to allow OGE to scale depending on the hardware its running on. It has two possible methods of detecting the information it needs but it depends on the compiler and the operating system that it runs on. If both approaches fail, it will default to 1 package, 1 core and 1 logical processor. On Lin...

Saturday, 26 April 2008. I recently committed the new threading code for OGE. It's still work in progress with changes needing to be made and more features to be added but the basis is there now. Overall this keeps a lot of threading detail away from the user, so hopefully they won't need to know a huge amount about multi threading before using OGE. Posted by Chris Jones. Friday, 11 April 2008. The dependencies for the core is now POCO and Intel's Threading Building Blocks. The latter we added to be ...
