Havard Eide is asking for your help in a new entry to his blog. He's looking for ways to speed up his development in Eclipse, specifically in the debugging.   There is one thing I do need over everything else: remote debugging. Having used Zend Studio for 3 years now it hasn't been the best editor ( I'd rather prefer PHPEclipse/PDT ) but the remote debugging facility is superb [...] Eclipse it has all the tools you need to develop with but the debugging is slow, way too slow!   He's looking for anyone out there that might be able to help him speed up the debugging on his Leopard-installed version of Eclipse ("So slow actually that I had to install Zend Studio 5.5 for whenever I have to debug a file...")

Tycho:  I don't know whose fault it is exactly, mine or theirs, but I won't be installing Vista anytime soon.  I would like some crazy shit to happen when I minimize something don't get me wrong.  I want my windows to go Waja-wajow(!) is possible.  But if there's a great reason to "trade horses midstream" or whatever the going metaphor is I haven't discovered it.

QUESTION: What is the best approach to protecting me from ID theft and related activities? Will a software package work best, or must I go to a hardware firewall?

Jonathan Street has a few tips for developers out there looking to speed things up on their site - seven tips towards "lightning fast sites".   I was recently creating a small tool in PHP and found myself hitting the max execution time and getting a fatal error. As it was only for my personal use I just bumped up the max execution time but it made me stop and think about how I could improve the speed of those scripts I do put up for public use. Most people aren't going to wait for 60 seconds for a page to load. Naturally I hit the internet looking for tips.    The tips he came across (each including the simple benchmarks to show the differences) were:   sizeof vs count is_int vs is_integer chop vs rtrim doubleval vs floatval fwrite vs fputs implode vs join ini_alter vs ini_set   Be sure to also check out his follow up post talking about building better benchmarks to test the sorts of tips he's given above.

By James Coates  Q. When I start my computer, the files are shown as fat icons. I would like them to open instead in list view, with each file shown by its name on just one line.

eBook Tools is a collection of tools to assist with creating and modifying ebook OPF files and ebook content files.   Welcome to eBook Tools ----------------------  eBook Tools is a collection of tools I have written to assist with creating and modifying ebook OPF files and ebook content files.  There is currently no Icon or Helpfile for this project, if you would like to donate either please see the About dialog in the program for contact details.  This program utilises MS-Word very heavily to perform most of the tasks available.  So if you do not have MS-Word installd do not install the application as it will not work. It has been tested with Winjdows XP (SP2) and MS-Word 2000 and also with MS-Word 2002 and was found to work ok. I have not tested it with Vista. So reports on how it does will be much appreciated.  The features available in the current version are as follows ------------------------------------------------------------  Open, modify and save OPF files eBook meatadata, x-metadata and guide items. Supports Metadata lookup from the internet  Create new OPF files Drag and drop file ordering for ebook spine, exclude items from ebook spine   The Tools available are as follows ----------------------------------  Convert docs to HTML - batch convert all documents (MS-word docs) in the file list to HTML documents.  Split Document - use on either Word documents or HTML documents,  helps split a large file into seperate chapter files. Note:  whens using the document splitter the main windows is hidden and the splitter is controlled from an icon is the system try.  Format documents - removes forced CR's and changes the font and size of all documents in the file list to a pre-selected format.  Create Toc file - helps create a TOC file to all the files in the filelist,  has several options for the naming of the hyperlinks in the resulting Toc file  Change Dialect - Changes the dialect of all files in the filelist - eg, American to English spelling, or vice-versa.   Dictionary file ---------------  The dialect change tool uses an MS-Access database file containing a list of words and their english spelled couterpart. The copy of the DB file that comes with the initial install contains only a few words. I plan to post updated database files as the list grows longer. If you would like to contribute to the word list database please see the 'About' dialog on the application for contact details.   Licence -------  Free for everyone for personal use, for business use please contact me.  Disclaimer ----------  Whatever happens to your computer or data, it's not my fault and I will not be held liable or responsible in any way. Use at your own risk, if you don't read this and use anyway, it is still not my fault (ignorance cannot be used as a defence).

At Fry's this afternoon, where I bought two 500GB Firewire drives. Which it turns out I needed because after I got home all three external drives attached to my desktop were reported as damaged beyond repair by the new Mac OS. Coincidence? Lucky that I had exactly the hardware I needed to dig out of the mess? Who knows!

A GTK/python frontend to the news leecher "hellanzb" providing most functionalities available from the "hellanzb daemon" and Drag and Drop file-enqueuing.Hellanzb can be obtained through your distro's package manager or at http://www.hellanzb.com   looks like hellagui only worked for me. There was a major bug : if no config file was present, hellagui would crash on start.  Now, if a developer, even of such a lowly glade hack as this one, says "this is working" and has even got screenshots to prove it, and the package doesn't work for you, it's very probable that there is some weird bug he (the developer, in this case me), missed.   It seriously doesn't hurt to just drop a small mail stating "sorry dude, but your application is just a pile of bugdung and it crashes". I'll even welcome "U 5vXX0r. it Cr4sh3d" messages ... If there is a shell output, even better. If not I'll survive and ask myself WHY it crashed and then fix it.  Anyway ... this version should work ... please DO tell me if it doesn't.

In his his latest blog entry, Felix Geisend&ouml;rfer makes a recommendation for anyone working with the CakePHP framework. He suggests doing something that most might avoid - diving into the source to find out how things work.   When hanging out in #cakephp I usally try to answer questions people have as good as I can. A lot of the times I have no idea what the answer is and in most cases the fastest way to find out is by looking at the core code. Ok, the manual is pretty decent these days and I would recommend most people to look for an answer in there first. But if you take the time to study the core code, you'll be able to answer almost any question by yourself, no matter if it has been answered somewhere before.   He talks about other advantages like finding those hidden, undocumented features already supported by the framework. Since this is the first part of the series, he just looks at how to get into the source. He starts off with the basic index.php file that comes installed with the distribution and a chunk of code that helps run the index file and is at the heart of how CakePHP works - the Dispatcher.
