I don't mean the standard mysql-client CLI, but rather something similar to what midnight commander is to filesystem management. The simple command history of the basic cli is not bad but really doesn't cut it when testing more complex query, and the layout of the data isn't that great. PHPMyAdmin is useful and all, but it's ugly and req...

It is clearly what is happening to me when using UI designers such as Windows Forms designer. Everytime I start a new project I am trying to reinvent a "seem-strong" naming co...

During that time, I want the UI to be reactive to any user activity, such as pressing a "Stop" button, or clicking a scroll bar. I know the technique is to peek at the UI queue (in a non...
I have an Ajax call that currently needs to be synchronous. However, while this Ajax call is executing, the browser interface freezes, until the call returns. In cases of timeout, this can freeze the browser for a significant period of time. Is there any way to get the browser (any browser) to refresh the user interface, but not execute...

For a pet project I'm working on I need my database schema to store the skin color of a person, and I'm wondering if a similar standard exists. All my life I've h...
