Instead of paving, you should use yellow paver stones.
Ever spent weeks on something that turns out to be a remarkably stupid oversight on your part?
I've been using the Reactive Extensions for .NET (Rx) a lot lately. It's a framework that works sort of like "What if instead of events, we had IEnumerables that added an item every time the event was raised?" I'm using it because I'm doing a lot of tasks that involve gathering data coming in at different rates, merging it, and processing it on a myriad of threads.
So I have this guy right here I wanted to test:
Items come in at a high rate, Buffer() collects all of them into a List for 10 seconds, then pushes that batch to my ProcessBatch method, and DefaultScheduler means ProcessBatch() is getting called on a worker thread. Whew.Code:_dataSource.Buffer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10))
.ObserveOn(DefaultScheduler.Instance)
.Subscribe(ProcessBatch)
I don't want my tests to take 10 seconds per test, so I was going to cheat. Things that work with time can take an IScheduler. There is a TestScheduler that lets you control the clock. So with a slight change, "10 seconds" passes when I say it does:
The way to test it looks something like:Code:dataSource.Buffer(TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10), scheduler)
...
I've revisited this test in my free time for a few weeks. Every time I tried it, the test failed with no data. I was stumped.Code:Dim scheduler = New TestScheduler()
_dataSource = scheduler.CreateHotObservable(
OnNext(10, <data>),
OnNext(20, <data>),
...)
' ...set up code so it uses that data source and the scheduler.
' Advance by 10 seconds
scheduler.AdvanceBy(10000)
' Test side effects of ProcessBatch()
It was only this week I got the bright idea to comment out the Buffer() call to see if I got data at all. And I replaced the "test" observable with Observable.Interval, which behaves like a timer. So I set it to have a 1s period and expected 10 data points.
I got 0 data points. What?
I hacked at it for 10 minutes until, out of anger, I changed AdvanceBy() to use "999999999" instead of 10000. I got some results. What?
Then it hit me. The name of the parameter that takes a time offset is 'ticks'. Ticks are NOT milliseconds. Whoops.
So....you were ticked off?
Or are you just clocking a tick talk?
He is stubbing his tick tack.
Looks like I dropped in too late for this thread's 17th birthday. Oh well, maybe next year.
What's a handful of days! It's never too late in Post Race anyway!
I hate PHP.
Yeah its not like we are in a race or anything.... What wait, we are? no one told me !!!Quote:

We forgot....long ago.
Sup guys! Finally finished pulling weeds in my backyard few weeks ago and already are growing back :(
Ugh, just had a windscreen repair. It was supposed to take 1 hour, turned into 3. And the light sensor's now not working. Total waste of an afternoon.
I'd have to say it's pretty obvious.Quote:

If you posted more frequently, no weeds.
It's California. There's lots of weed to pull out there.
I get that we have some interesting differences in language.Quote:

A screen in a window would let air through!
What do you call the mesh-like screens in windows that keep bugs out??
Why call it anything? After all, nothing has managed to keep the bugs out of Windows, thus far.Quote:

I had an appointment 2 hours away, only for the person to back out while I was pulling up in their driveway.
Wow! At least you didn't spend another hour or two trying to clinch that deal...Quote:

In what way is it like a shield, which tended to be solidly made of metal and used to deflect lethal blows with a Sword !
wind-SCREEN is a waaaaay better word.

We're just gonna have to cut NSA some slack.
After all, those poor blokes drive on the wrong side of the road and don't know how to spell "color"
Historically you guys preferred open windows anyway - without which defenestration wouldn't be so much fun!Quote:

Also, shields are commonly used to deflect a whole lot more than swords. They're for blocking....pretty nearly anything, depending on the shield.Quote:

Such is the life of an insurance man.
My point is they were never, ever made of glass. Literally No-one wants a glass shield !!!Quote:

They're better than those Elven shields, and look pretty cool.
I guess I only really recognize the last one, which appears to be the Skyrim version. I was thinking that the others might be earlier Elder Scroll versions, but I should recognize the Oblivion version...or maybe not.
I just got cancelled on... again... by the same friggen customer.

Watch out! Charms in the Louisiana area could be voodoo. You might be turned into a wombat.
I told my employee that if she calls back to explain that I'll take an appointment over the phone, but that I am NOT driving back out there.
Turns out, it was Lucky Charms....or at least one of them. He got a blue moon.Quote:

anybody could help me please? sorry for posting here. I'm really registered but I can't post a new thread on this site. So please allow me to post my problem. Thanks for advance ADMIN.
Here's my Problem:
Attachment 152491
Private Sub BackgroundWorker1_DoWork(sender As Object, e As System.ComponentModel.DoWorkEventArgs) Handles BackgroundWorker1.DoWork
AOB.BytesToScan = {txtboxAOB.Text}
Dim Address As IntPtr = AOB.AobScan(txtboxProcess.Text)
TextBox3.Text = Address.ToString()
End Sub
It's not working when I'm trying to use a text box as the value of my array of bytes to be scanned.
And not dirty if used to refer to Sally sitting on a loo
