to introduce the CVS basics to CVS novices (in 2 minutes) and refresh and improve the knowledge of people who already know CVS. It's a CVS tutorial, a quick start guide but it's told like a story with lots of examples.
For the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae project of the University of California at Irvine, a method for representing Greek characters in ASCII was devised, called Beta Codes.
A Multi-Seat Linux Box: This tutorial shows how to build a multi-head, multi-user Linux box using a recent distribution of Linux and standard USB keyboards and mice. Xorg calls this arrangement a "multi-seat" system.
how to give a talk (using slides or transparencies) in computer science, concisely distilled. Most of these thoughts are based on going to conferences and seeing the same mistakes repeated by a plurality of speakers.
2.4GHz parabolic mesh dishes from Chinese cookware scoops & a USB WiFi adaptor! Called "WIFRY","WOKFI" or "WOKTENNA" (12"= 300mm diam) shows 12-15dB gain (enough for a LOS range extension to 3-5km)
This document explores methods for squeezing excess bytes out of simple programs. (Of course, the more practical purpose of this document is to describe a few of the inner workings of the ELF file format and the Linux operating system. But hopefully you can also learn something about how to make really teensy ELF executables in the process.)
10% of what we READ, 20% of what we HEAR, 30% of what we SEE, 50% of what we SEE and HEAR, 70% of what is DISCUSSED with OTHERS, 80% of what is EXPERIENCED PERSONALLY, 95% of what we TEACH TO SOMEONE ELSE
by Alan Green - These checklists are a tool for helping you focus attention on the critical aspects of your project at the different stages of its lifecycle.
Weekend Project Podcast: Make simple radios to listen too. These were made with materials that they could get their hands on and were small enough to carry around in a big pocket.
four-channel GPS receiver using a repurposed FPGA board from a previous frequency synthesizer project. Connected to a PC running a console app, the receiver is capable of tracking four satellites simultaneously, which is good enough to capture lat, long, and altitude.
Before you start working with photo images on your computer (or even view them), you should really make sure that your video subsystem is capable and is displaying things correctly. These pages will assist you in adjusting your monitor by providing various test patterns. They also give a brief introduction to issues involved in calibrating a monitor
rticle gives suggestions on how to set up your Mozilla application for extension development. Unless otherwise specified, those suggestions apply to both Firefox and Thunderbird as well as SeaMonkey version 2.0 and above.
from Glowdot Code by Rick Strom " if you start with Win32, you will have very little problem moving to MFC or .NET, since they just simplify the process."
basically the Flash Nap project with a few extra features and some work. It's also a minimal version of "Light/Sound" hypnosis machines that cost hundreds of dollars, but if you have parts, this one will cost just a couple of bucks. NO PROGRAMMING REQUIRE
the prototype version of the KeeLogger with full documentation, electrical schematics, and program. Operation of this device is similar to the KeeLogger Pro version, although download is initiated by a special button.
created for individuals wanting to develop full-featured extensions for the Mozilla Firefox browser. The tutorial has been constructed as a step-by-step guide providing many examples, explanations, and external references and more...
"When the lady at the corner market runs the package over the scanner (or whatever it is they do in your area), the computerized cash register reads the UPC code as a string of binary digits."
all the Linux subjects, in a well organized order, in 100 chapters in six courses: Base, WebMaster, X Window, Networking, System Administration and Programming.
Free mathematics tutorials to help you explore and gain deep understanding of math topics. The site includes several java applets to investigate Graphs of Functions, Equations, and Algebra.
by Marat Fayzullin. Covers so-called "interpreting" emulators, as opposed to "compiling" ones. It also covers a few common technical questions people ask about writing emulators. It also provides you with "blueprints" for emulator internals which you can follow in some degree.
trying to introduce people to Bayesian reasoning is that the existing online explanations are too abstract. Bayesian reasoning is very counterintuitive. People do not employ Bayesian reasoning intuitively, find it very difficult to learn Bayesian reason
Nice little guide to building an IR transceiver - uses the USB port for stable 5V, but includes a link in the comments to a decent circuit diagram that uses a voltage regulator and therefore doesn't need the USB port for power.
Instead of using a piece of paper, your calculator, or a computer math software program, you can now solve mathematical problems with Google’s built-in calculator function.
Fun, fashion & science in this quirky site about shoelaces. Whether you want to learn to lace shoes, tie shoelaces, stop shoelaces from coming undone, calculate shoelace lengths or even repair aglets.
