I will definitely see if I can try this out. I like what nTop is capable of yet don’t want to go through the hassle of command line.

Video Game ideas – No Hockey League

by on Dec.06, 2012, under Gaming, Projects, Technology

No Hockey league:

1. Simple 3on3 hockey + goalies.
2. Offensive strategies: pass, deke, shoot
3. Defensive strategies: check, steal, block

Special player attributes:
Goalies:
1. Defender: Great on blocking the first pass but after several ricochets he’ll break down
2. Experienced: May make a few mistakes here and there. But if you’re ahead he’ll shut down the game
3. Rookie: No telling what you’ll get.

Wing:
1. Offensive: Be the first to setup the initial shot on goal. Struggles on defense
2. Defensive: Strong at passing and stealing, terrible on finesse
3. Skilled: The go to guy for scoring

Center:
Captain: The master of setting up plays. Gets into key positions automatically
Brute: Master of checking
Balanced: The guy who fills in where needed.

Multithreading and Autowired beans

by on Sep.07, 2012, under Coding, Technology, Uncategorized

Today I learned you can pass beans by reference and use them in multiple threads without running into issues. I’m not sure if this is the proper way of handling spring access to the database via multiple threads. Nonetheless, it’s much better than auto wiring each thread to become a bean.

How Seamless caused Taco Chino to lose $27.23

by on Sep.20, 2011, under Coding, Life, Technology

Taco Chino delivers no further than 1.5 miles away. Seamless understands this and lists them as being within 1.4 miles away. Yet when placing an order Taco Chino is not within the range of delivery despite being eight minutes away. What has gone wrong?

There is a huge difference between driving distances and actual distances:

  1. Google maps reports the driving distance being greater than 2 miles
  2. The distance between location and destination is approx. 1.4 miles

Shame on you Seamless coders.

In one night…

by on May.18, 2011, under Coding, Projects, Technology

I learned how to:

  • Write a Hello world app in Android
  • Manually configure a device to work with a driver in windows when the driver.inf file “has no hardware information about your device”
  • Some android phones have driver software that is only obtainable through bizarre methods.
  • Decrypt an APK file to extract XML information
  • Use XML information to generate an R.java file in Eclipse
  • Debug someone else’s application to get it to run.
