Hmm, need to check why MariaDB got installed
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/07/06
The zypper dup has installed MariaDB; now I need to figure out which dependency did this, as I’m not happy with the update message:
Message from package mariadb: You just installed MySQL server for the first time. You can start it using: rcmysql start During first start empty database will be created for your automatically. PLEASE REMEMBER TO SET A PASSWORD FOR THE MariaDB root USER ! To do so, start the server, then issue the following commands: '/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root password 'new-password' '/usr/bin/mysqladmin' -u root -h misibook password 'new-password' Alternatively you can run: '/usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation' which will also give you the option of removing the test databases and anonymous user created by default. This is strongly recommended for production servers.

Wow:
- 52800mAH Ultimate External Battery for Macbooks
- 26000mAH Macbook External Battery & Car Adapter
That’s (nah Triad) 50+ and 25+ Ampere hour of battery capacity.
Which is the similar to what car and motor cycle batteries can hold.

Anyone who knows if there are equivalents for Mercurial/Hg?

Scala programming language and Venkat Subramaniam videos
Posted by jpluimers on 2015/06/30
A long while ago, someone (it was too long ago, so I sincerely forgot who, it probably was in the JBuilder era) told me that I should try out Ruby and Scala.
I did take a short look at Ruby back then, but since Ruby was so focussed on Web Development, and my heart really wasn’t there, postponed it to the times that the Web would be hot for me.
Then I should have taken a look at Scala (which compiles to Java bytecode), but since I abandoned Java (JBuilder wasn’t nice, Java programming was slow and modern IDEs like IntelliJ IDEA and Eclipse weren’t there yet).
Now that I’ve done truckloads of work in the .NET and Delphi world (including domain specific languages and Pascal based products), I bumped into these Scala videos by Venkat Subramaniam:
Boy, I should have taken a look earlier: like Delphi and C# it is a statically typed compiled language, but it is on steroids.
Yes, I know it leans on the Java bytecode as a run-time platform, but so does the Android SDK as one of the Java Platforms. Contrary Ruby, which with IronRuby runs on .NET and RubyMotion runs Mac and iOS, Scala does not run on the .NET platform any more.
Given the witty way of presenting I’m surely going to follow Venkat Subramaniam and watch some of his other videos too.
Shortly after watching the above I bumped into this video by Steve Yegge (Google): Dynamic Languages Strike Back – YouTube.
