Изображение
Gee, you guys reinvented the repository. the Average linux user We prefer to be called AppStore or app store for Windows. Well actually, it doesn't matter. The main thing that we are doing something that is already there on other platforms — App Store for Mac OS, Ubuntu Software Centre samiznaetekto. And of course, under all mobile platforms: iOS, Android, Windows Phone 7. In General, we are able to install apps without "next", "next". The idea to launch this project appeared last winter. By looking at competitors, such as Ninite or AllMyApps , and analyzing their advantages and disadvantages, we have decided to launch your store with the cards and ladies. So meet Soofty. Now we have already published ≈60 popular programs, and as many more waiting for checks in the queue for moderation. Of course, not to compare with hundreds of thousands of other stores, but we're going to success For those who are not faced with anythin

Developing applications for mobile devices for many may seem not so difficult. With this statement in principle, we can agree, but with one "but": to develop functional, beautiful, and most importantly, convenient application is extremely difficult. In the article I would like to talk about the complexities in mobile application development and how to use our developed engine WP7PUBLISH you can save time on writing apps for Windows Phone. Introduction Writing a simple RSS reader can steel easy task even for a student, but the development of convenient content delivery system – a task much more difficult. What you need to remember when writing mobile applications: the mobile app is not a desktop or web application, so apply the usual rules is impossible. You need to remember that the smartphone is not a full computer, so questions of performance and convenience come first. the the user may not always have an Internet connection, and the tariffs for mobile I

There are even x

Nigma.ru added to your piggy Bank a new feature for users. Now right across the search bar, you can solve various math problems, for example, x2-3x+2=0 , sin2 x + cos2 x , 2 h * 30 m/min = x , of the system of equations of type 2x-y=4, 3y+x=9 , x2+y=1, x*y=0 , etc. (detailed list here ). The service is designed for students of class 6-10. For more information you can learn by reading dokumentaciju news on our website. To create this feature we asked real students — were asked to enter a search string in a mathematical expression the most convenient way. Of course, few of them know the syntax of programming languages — nobody could write something that looks like normal syntax. Therefore, the most important task for us was the recognition of a free syntax — because this is the task of any search engine is to give the user the ability to answer his question without studying the documentation for the system. How does our algorithm? First, we recognize mathematical q

About the project What is a standard blog or publication? Comments are usually separated from the text and users have to quote fragments of text to comment on them. But if the dispute between the readers tied around certain statements in the article, as often happens in Habra, only what came in the post the reader is difficult to catch this interesting part of the article. How can I make the comments more contextual, interactive, attention-grabbing? I want to share with apachename project, which is developing one of our teams. It will be useful to bloggers, online media, and just sites with a high text content. The project SSO offers a new perspective on comments. Comments can be as fragments of text and individual words, pictures. It allows the author to spice up the article to see the most talked about, hottest parts of the text, make the article content more intense due to the activity of readers. the How to use the the On site set is very simple: there ar

Search 2.0 what it might be

we Take as a starting point, there are two pretty well known quotes: the "Search engines have become one of the two new wonders of the world, leaving Homo Sapiens unlimited and instant access to information." Ilya Segalovich, "How search engines work" the "the Internet is like a large dustbin: there is everything, but find it impossible." Folk wisdom Select three major problems faced by modern search engines. the Main problems of information retrieval the Instead of searching information search references . You have not yet tired of snippets? How much time is spent on the campaign the links and subsequent search of the information on the pages. Yes, while we twist banners, counters and other visitors, pleasing the owners, but from the publication of the RSS stream nobody suffers? In 90 cases out of 100 we are looking for information and receive a link where she might be located. Instead of instant access to the desired information is

Music lovers is dedicated to, or make Internet radio "grown-up"

Welcome abrollsoftware! This is an interesting story about what legal differences work in the Russian Google and Yandex, as almost single-handedly to make a commercial product, while not knowing the Unix system, and even, in General, poorly understanding of Windows, but very loving music, and how not to splurge on advertising in the Internet. We also dispel some famous myths about the creation and operation of their radio station) Under the cut seven circles of hell and all my ordeal in the world of beauty (music, of course) with all the details and some photos. We all (well, almost) love music and radio including. Perhaps someone in the head climbs thought that it would be nice to be a DJ, languid voice into the microphone to attract the opposite audience to put songs on the air and to be popular and in demand. But the illusion quickly shattered against the reality. It so happened that at completely random circumstances I had to work in his time first on one of the T

Dissection of a startup

Regularly reading Habr, I have noticed that very few articles written about Analytics development services and the logic of building startups. I believe that to raise this kind of topic is very useful for abrasheva. I have a lot of posts I read about startups. All told about opportunities, some indicators, methods of monetization prospects, but none I couldn't follow the logic that guided the team in developing the project. Although, I think the logic of thinking to start-UPS much more interesting, because it reflects what is in the mind of the developer, not some qualitative characteristics of the product. Soon will be the official launch of our project, and I want to share with you the logic that I had in mind in creating and developing the idea. I think this post will be more useful for those who want to do something, as well as a description of the operation of the engine and some technical solutions in the development of the car is much more useful for engine

Hyper Estraier is a small search engine for the lazy

Small — because in comparison with Sphinx speed is really not impressive, and lazy — because it's very simple. What attracted the attention, in spite of the modest performance? 1. Opportunity real-time indexing. 2. The attributes of the document and use the search and sorting the result. 3. Easy operation and compact clear documentation (in a couple of days on the study, in fact a cursory glance at the diagonal of the docks and was the impetus for a more detailed study of the product). My impressions of Hyper Estraier : This search engine belongs to Peru FalLabs , one product which I test recently. Short User's Guide (34 on a laptop screen, of which two thirds for the parameters and configs), with some interesting features tempted to experiment. Personally, I'm about a day spent on the study of the description, a few moments to install plus half an hour to deal with the simplest version of the work, indexing of three documents and playing with the r

Josh Berkus (Josh Berkus) announced the release of PostgreSQL 8.3beta1 (see official Changelog ). More than six months it took developers to complete work on the handling of patches (we will remind, feature freeze on 1 April 2007). It's time to tell what will please us this year the most developed from open DBMS in the world. I break the whole list into four parts. First, for many the most important part I will list the changes that touches on the performance. Secondly — here is the list of new features for database programmers, designed to enhance further the already strong set of "features" of PostgreSQL. The third part discusses the innovations intended for database administrators. And finally, at the end I will mention some Open Source projects that are projects-companions of Postgres (in other words, have their own development cycle). the Performance Let's start with the fact that today (currently stable branch is 8.2, the latest version is 8.2.5) P
