Have you ever noticed how facebook says “3 friends and 33 others liked this”? I was wondering what the best approach to do this is. I don’t think going through the friends list, and the list of users who “liked this” and comparing them is efficient at all! Do they keep a track of this in the database? That will make the database size ver...
I have started learning Python by writing a small application using Python 3.1 and py-postgresql. Now I want to turn it into a web application. But it seems that most frameworks such as web-py, django, zope are still based on Python 2.x. Unfortunately py-postgresql is incompatible with Python 2.x. Do I have to rewrite all my classes an...

However now my ajax pages do not see the webservices anymore, because the webservice changed from SomeService to MyNameSpace.SomeService.

I have learned some basics, but it isn't getting me anywhere. Here's what I have so far: MailMessage message = new MailMessage(txtFrom.Text, txtTo.Text, txtSubject.Text, txtBo...
I've been finding that a lot of Github projects use Markdown. I originally thought this library was only needed on sites like StackOverflow that include the ability for users to add comments or posts that might include source code snippets. But some apps seem to use Markdown even when this is not the case. Markdown is a lightweight ...

Take for instance Yahoo Mail or Twitter. When someone signs up to use their service, they'll need to automatically deploy a new database, application folder and so on - I assume! I am planning to write an PHP application to let people add and edit invoices. Good examples would be Zoho Invoice, http://www.getballpark.com/, etc. They sure...
Hello I am used to develop web applications in Java (Struts, Spring, JSP...). But now I want to develop a desktop one. I never liked to design windows in Java (AWT, Swing, SWT): too much work for an ugly interface. So I think it could be a good idea if could take advantage of my web-app skills. One option is to modify the SWT Browser an...

The server is running on a Windows box. There was no indication...
