by Joshua Porter You know when you meet someone and at first you don’t really hit it off so well…you don’t seem to have much in common? And then, all of a sudden, you hit on a topic you’re both passionate about and your relationship changes? You immediately lose a sense of time and simply talk and talk and talk because you have a shared interest? We all have interests like that; we all have something we’re passionate about. For some people it’s sports, others politics, others cooking, etc.

PyGTK lets you to easily create programs with a graphical user interface using the Python programming language. The underlying GTK+ library provides all kind of visual elements and utilities for it and, if needed, you can develop full featured applications for the GNOME Desktop. PyGTK applications are truly multiplatform and they're able to run, unmodified, on Linux, Windows, MacOS X and other platforms. Other distinctive features of PyGTK are, besides its ease of use and rapid prototyping, its first class accessibility support or the capability to deal with complex multilingual or bidirectional text for fully localized applications. PyGTK 2.24.0 has been released. This is a stable release supporting the GTK+ 2.24 API.

Lua Unofficial FAQ (uFAQ)
There is also an incomplete Lua Wiki FAQ ; this unofficial FAQ aims to fill in the holes and answer as many questions as possible, in a useful way. Although at first glance it looks like Basic, Lua is more akin to JavaScript; such as no explicit class mechanism and equivalence of a['x'] with a.x . There are very few types; string, number, table, function, thread and userdata. This simplicity accounts for a lot of Lua's speed and compactness compared with languages of equivalent power.Standard captcha are either broken or are an accessibility nuisance or both. In its most noble form - reCaptcha - it is used brilliantly to digitize books and provide people over at India with a living: Smart engineers all over the world are busy trying to invent the most inaccessible new generation captcha possible, which typically involves analyzing or playing around with images.

Programmer Competency Matrix
Knows space and time tradeoffs of the basic data structures, Arrays vs LinkedLists, Able to explain how hashtables can be implemented and can handle collisions, Priority queues and ways to implement them etc. Able to recognize and code dynamic programming solutions, good knowledge of graph algorithms, good knowledge of numerical computation algorithms, able to identify NP problems etc. Basic understanding of compilers, linker and interpreters. Understands what assembly code is and how things work at the hardware level. Some knowledge of virtual memory and paging.Crash Course | Smarty
include('Smarty.class.php'); // create object $smarty = new Smarty; // assign some content. This would typically come from // a database or other source, but we'll use static // values for the purpose of this example. $smarty->assign('name', 'george smith'); $smarty->assign('address', '45th & Harris'); // display it $smarty->display('index.tpl'); As you can see, Smarty cleanly separates your presentation (HTML/CSS) from your application (PHP) code.
Regular expressions (or regex) are a powerful way to traverse large strings in order to find information. They rely on underlying patterns in a string’s structure to work their magic. Unfortunately, simple regular expressions are unable to cope with complex patterns and symbols. To deal with this dilemma, you can use advanced regular expressions .
