Natural Selection 2 How To Make Your Own Sticky Header Bar Like MakeUseOf About a month ago, we introduced a new interface element to MakeUseOf – a floating navigation and search bar. The feedback we’ve been getting is almost entirely positive, internal search traffic has rocketed, and some readers having been asking about how to make one for their own site, so I thought I’d share. We’ll use jQuery to stick the bar to the top of the screen – but only past a certain point. I’ll do all this in the default WordPress theme – Twenty Eleven, though of course it can be applied to any theme or website which you sufficiently understand how to modify. The HTML First up, open the themes header.php and identify the navigation bar that we’ll be making sticky. Firstly, add a new DIV container surrounding this entire NAV section. <div id="access_container"><nav id="access" role="navigation"> ... Also, let’s move that default search bar into here. The CSS Open up the main style.css file and find the section for the search form: #branding #searchform { ... } jQuery Summary:

Quantum entanglement shows that reality can't be local. Either that, or faster-than-light communications is a go. : science WorkFlowy workflowy « Developmentality Today’s post is about WorkFlowy, a great, free web application for creating and managing lists. It is the best tool for organizing TODOs and random thoughts out of anything I’ve found. First, let me describe the two main problems I have with todo/note taking software I’ve tried previously. Secondly I’ll show how WorkFlowy alleviates these problems. TODO: fix these problems! There have certainly been other TODO list applications that I have used in the past, but they usually suffer from at least one of the following problems: 1) They require too much information about each item When I’m jotting things down, I rarely care about prioritizing it, giving it a due date, assigning it a label, tag, etc. 2) They force you into a flat mode of thinking When I’m trying to right down all the thoughts in my head related to a given project or task, they often are deeply hierarchical. (Here’s a visual representation of the nested list I described earlier:) A A.1A.2 A.2.iA.2.iiA.2.iii WorkFlowy Top level lists
Stepping Out of Squalor - Online organization tool: WorkFlowy I've been continuing to play with / use Workflowy. The play with part is mostly coming to grips with the keyboard shortcuts (On PC use: Ctrl ?). As for the 'use', as in ... continuing to 'use Workflowy'. A quick reflection:I'm thinking I don't even know what 'organisation' is.I'm trying to work on a 'To Do' list and I've been struggling.I think I know what being organised might look like, at least the results of it.I see someone / thing .... I additionally add this from the perspective that my Workflowy lists are 'a dogs breakfast' (as we would say here in Australia). So, I labor the point again that I lack organisation, even more relevantly, I don't even think I know what organisation is. I guess the observation I make is, use of Wokflowy highlights that I have trouble creating structure and organisation. Seeing my failure in creating order is very exciting to me (I must be nuts to say that). Functionaly Workflowy has been saving all my changes. The journey continues,Owl. P.S.
Should I learn PHP or Ruby on Rails Event-driven programming Event handlers[edit] A trivial event handler[edit] Because the code for checking for events and the main loop do not depend on the application, many programming frameworks take care of their implementation and expect the user to provide only the code for the event handlers. In this simple example there may be a call to an event handler called OnKeyEnter() that includes an argument with a string of characters, corresponding to what the user typed before hitting the ENTER key. globally declare the counter K and the integer T. While keeping track of history is straightforward in a batch program, it requires special attention and planning in an event-driven program. Exception handlers[edit] Creating event handlers[edit] The second step is to bind event handlers to events so that the correct function is called when the event takes place. Criticism and best practice[edit] and advocates the use of state machines as a viable alternative.[2][clarification needed] Stackless threading[edit]
Asynchronous I/O Input and output (I/O) operations on a computer can be extremely slow compared to the processing of data. An I/O device can incorporate mechanical devices that must physically move, such as a hard drive seeking a track to read or write; this is often orders of magnitude slower than the switching of electric current. For example, during a disk operation that takes ten milliseconds to perform, a processor that is clocked at one gigahertz could have performed ten million instruction-processing cycles. A simple approach to I/O would be to start the access and then wait for it to complete. But such an approach (called synchronous I/O or blocking I/O) would block the progress of a program while the communication is in progress, leaving system resources idle. When a program makes many I/O operations, this means that the processor can spend almost all of its time idle waiting for I/O operations to complete. Asynchronous I/O is used to improve throughput, latency, and/or responsiveness.
