Hey Kerry, I didn’t know you were a resistor head. :-D Have you looked at any of the Arduino stuff? It’s cheap, has a pretty easy learning curve and it has tons applications / accessories. http://arduino.org/

Comment on Matrix Multiplication Performance in C++ by Steve

Steve — Tue, 02 Feb 2010 16:31:48 +0000

The Intel MKL library is very fast, but a warning to all of the .Net developers out there.

Its a real pig to work with. Intel do provide a sample set of example library calls, but they don’t provide the wrapper. You have to compile it yourself.

I am currently using MKL and wish I’d found a proper .Net compliant version or atleast a provider who does recognise that .Net does exist.

I’ve wasted so much time trying to get the wrapper compiled for 32 bit then 64 bit. It is not easy.

Intel fail to tell you that you must register MKLROOT as a global variable plus the Bin eg Intel\MKL\10…\em64t\bin should be in your path variable along with Intel\MKL\10…

Fast but painful.

Comment on Strange Windows Authentication Behavior by Matt Neerincx (MSFT)

Matt Neerincx (MSFT) — Sun, 31 Jan 2010 01:02:51 +0000

Yes, this is difficult behavior to explain but I can take a crack.

If the SQL Server is a default instance and running on a non-standard port (not running on 1433), then tcp protocol will always fail. You have to specify the port for tcp. What happens next is the client provider will try named pipes protocol after tcp protocol fails. Named pipes uses a well known named pipe and will work as long as the thread of execution has sufficient NT security to perform SMB request to remote server.

Depending upon how you configure ASP.NET security the named pipe can fail or succeed. Tcp is agnostic to NT security and will succeed as long as you supply the port.

This applies to default instance, if it’s a named instance client does not have to supply port the port is determined by running a UDP 1434 lookup.

My MIDI keyboard did not come with USB so I only tested it on the game port. Good luck with your setup!

Thanks for the cool howto. Did you ever try midi->usb cable with your MK-4903? I’ve got one for mine but haven’t gotten around to set it up and test it yet.

Comment on The Perfect UI by John Graffio

I agree; the 2007 ribbon makes me cringe. I wonder what population they did usability testing on to convince themselves this would work better.

Comment on An Alternative Illustration of Prime Number Distribution by John Graffio

John Graffio — Mon, 04 Jan 2010 08:48:49 +0000

I wonder if anybody out there is working on discovering a mathematical space where prime number distribution appears linear, i.e., non-logarithmic in this case. I say this because some savants who can calculate astronomically large numbers in their heads say they can “see” the numbers in a row. So I wonder if the brains of these individuals are able to do this mapping by some unknown mechanism.

As to the home page of Bing, I have to agree. If I could configure it to look like Google, and not load some image and associated info, I’d be happy.

Comment on Meta Refresh Bug in IE7? by Gorilla Grams

Gorilla Grams — Wed, 16 Dec 2009 14:50:41 +0000

Even BETTER would be if IE still allowed meta refresh. There are all kinds of work arounds, so I don’t see a whole lot of value in them coding around meta refresh. However, this is IE we’re talking about here, so it’s no surprise that it includes extremely stupid features while totally ignoring others (better understanding of CSS positioning for instance)

Thanks for the info though, I thought I was going crazy.
