Note that it the converted package might install but not work correctly, so you are at luck whether it will work after that or not.

cd ~/Downloads

Then you probably installed Visual Studio, Visual Studio service pack, then the Team explorer. Doing it in that matter overwrites parts of Visual Studio SP hence giving you such errors.

The correct way to install would be:

1. Visual Studio (Team Edition)
2. Team Explorer
3. Team Foundation 2008 October Power Tools
4. Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1

To fix the error now, just re-install Visual Studio 2008 Service Pack 1.

1. Project settings:
   1. Add new build configuration S60_5th_Edition_SDK_v1.0 (Qt 4.6.0) Release
      
   2. Change its Tool Chain to be WINSCW
      
      
   3. Add a new Run Setting (ProjectName in Symbian Emulator)
      
   4. Open the project file (TestLBSWS.pro) and add the following to enable network usage:
      

      symbian {
          TARGET.CAPABILITY = NetworkServices
      }
      

2. Mobile deployment:
   1. Without smart installer (Qt 4.6.0)
      • Open command prompt
      • Navigate to project path
      • Run:

        qmake && make release-gcce

      • Then run:

        make sis

      • You now have your .sis file ready. Make sure qt in already installed on the device
   2. With smart installer (Qt 4.6.2+) steps

Assuming I have a property in the code behind that returns a GUID

protected Guid CustomerId {
 get { return new Guid(); }
}

And assuming I have a link in my aspx page that I want to append this property to, here is how to do it

<a href="upgrade.aspx?id=<%= CustomerId .ToString() %>">Upgrade</a>

Note that this will not work if you specify a runat=server to the href for any reason, for example. to show the link or hide it according to specific logic.

If you need to show and hide the link, you can enclose it in a place holder and access that placeholder from the code behind

<asp:PlaceHolder ID="UpdgradeLinkPlaceholder" runat="server">
<a href="upgrade.aspx?id=<%= CustomerId .ToString() %>">Upgrade</a>
</asp:PlaceHolder>

Now when I was trying to login with this password, whatever I tried to do it gave me a 401 Authorization required. It just didn’t accept my password. I contacted the support of Bluehost but they weren’t able to help!

After some searching, I found this forum post http://forums.cpanel.net/showthread.php?t=112117 which makes me wonder why hasn’t cPanel fixed that bug so far?

If your password or the generated password contains greater than (<) or less than (>) characters (or maybe other ones that I haven’t discovered yet), they will be filtered out by cPanel before the password is saved, effectivley changing the password you set.

As a work around if you really need to use those characters (I liked the generated password ) you can set it through the shell

htpasswd -n username
New password: w7WY/a3HIUx>
Re-type new password: w7WY/a3HIUx> 

username:hash

Then copy the last line (username:hash) into your .htpasswd file which you can find by editing the .htaccess file in the directory that you were trying to protect. (Does this make sense?)

I was editing a model, then saving it. For some reason, my form action was changing from

/controller/edit/1
to
/controller/add

it was making me go crazy!

After seaching around (finally) I found this: https://trac.cakephp.org/ticket/5871
I came to realize that I have actually omitted the

<?= form->input('id'); ?>

from my edit view because I thought “why the hell do I need to edit the primary key?”

As it turns out, CakePHP needs a field (hidden or not) with the name ID or else it will revert to the ADD form.

Luckily though, it is smart enough to render it as a hidden field.

Google is your friend.

Indoor Localization Using Wireless LAN/WiFi Infrastructure

Indoor Localization using Wireless LAN/WiFi Infrastructure

Abstract:
The rapid advances in wireless technology as well as in the manufacturing of portable devices caused a growing interest in location aware services. A location sensing
system responsible for locating a mobile user, is a crucial factor for the success of such services. With the prevalence of wireless hotspots and wireless area networks, the use of a wireless network infrastructure as basis for an indoor positioning system becomes a viable option. In this work, we propose an indoor guide system that provides information about points of interest and objects within the vicinity of the user. Our system can be deployed on a university campus or inside a museum equipped with a wireless network.

The system uses the fingerprinting technique to associate position dependent information such as the strength of the received signal with a location. A range based matching algorithm for matching the physical signal strength with the fingerprints in the database is used and its performance is compared to an Euclidean distance based matching algorithm. The properties of the wireless signals and their distribution under several controlled experiments are analyzed.

I came up with this simple solution

public class PowerOfTwo {
	public static void main(String args[]){
		for(int n=0,limit=16; n<Math.pow(2, limit);n++)
			if(isPowerOfTwo(n))
				System.out.println(n);
	}

	private static boolean isPowerOfTwo(int n) {
		double logNbase2 =  Math.log(n)/Math.log(2);	
		int logNbase2Integer = (int) (Math.floor(logNbase2));
		
		if(logNbase2-logNbase2Integer==0)
			return true;
		else
			return false;
	}
}

maybe not quite as elegant as the bit hack, but I understand it!

Update:
Actually, I understood how the bit hack function below works:

	private static boolean isPowerOfTwoFast(int n) {
		return ((n!=0) && (n&(n-1))==0);
	}

1:  000001
2:  000010
4:  000100
8:  001000
16: 010000
32: 100000

and so on, so we need to check if the number only has one bit that is set, and that the number is not 0 (because zero is not a power of two).

We can count the number of set bits (which is another interview question!), and if the number of set bits is one, then the number is a power of two. A smarter way to do it would be bitwise ANDing of the number and the number-1, and then check that the result == 0.

For example, to check that 32 is a power of 2, convert 32 to binary to be 100000, convert 31 to binary to be 011111. Bitwise ANDing of those 2 numbers would obviously result in 0.
