Enyo 2.0 gets new UI widgets for cross-browser support. HP snuck in just under the wire in keeping up with its Open webOS release schedule, updating Enyo to 2.0b2 and adding new UI widgets and performance improvements.
For the unfamiliar, Enyo was the JavaScript framework that powered webOS on the TouchPad and is now an open-source rendering engine for web apps, as well as Open webOS development. The update introduces Onyx, a UI library of pre-made elements for developers to take advantage of. It's based on existing webOS controls, but the underlying code has been re-written to improve performance across various browsers. The library is currently limited to commonly used elements — toolbars, text inputs, checkboxes, and various buttons, which you can test out yourself — but the Enyo team plans to add more widgets in the future. Also in the update is a layout tool that allows developers to create columns and rows that automatically resize based on available browser window space, a non-issue when Enyo was only powering the TouchPad.
Quatre limites très gênantes du Responsive Web Design. Très à la mode, le Responsive Web Design peut cependant ne pas convenir à certains sites.
L'expert Rémi Parmentier, du site HTeuMeuLeu.fr, explique certaines limites. "Il y a clairement un effet de mode. 2012 a sans doute été une année marquée par l'adoption du Responsive Web Design. Mais des questions vont aujourd'hui commencer à pouvoir sérieusement émerger autour de cette technique. En 2013, les limites et problèmes du Responsive Web Design vont commencer à mieux se faire connaître", estime l'intégrateur Rémi Parmentier, qui a déjà émis, de nombreuses fois, des doutes et critiques sur le Responsive Design sur son site HTeuMeuLeu.fr. 1- Le problème de l'affichage des publicités Le premier problème, rédhibitoire pour certains sites monétisés : l'affichage de la publicité, très fortement chahuté par le Responsive Design. 2- Le problème de la connexion des smartphones Le but du Responsive Web Design est de servir le même contenu web aux smartphones, tablettes et ordinateurs. Web analytics. Web analytics is not just a tool for measuring web traffic but can be used as a tool for business and market research, and to assess and improve the effectiveness of a web site.
Web analytics applications can also help companies measure the results of traditional print or broadcast advertising campaigns. It helps one to estimate how traffic to a website changes after the launch of a new advertising campaign. Web analytics provides information about the number of visitors to a website and the number of page views. Dyn picks up mobile monitoring company Trendslide and looks toward devops. Plenty of companies have woken up to the reality that IT administrators, executives, salespeople and others want to use their mobile devices to get a sense of their operations.
Now Dyn, which provides DNS and email-delivery services for enterprises, has bought Trendslide, which has built out simple mobile dashboards for keeping track of sales data and other inputs. But Dyn doesn’t want to offer that to its customers; it will transform the app into a tool for devops. In other words, instead of integrating with Salesforce.com, Marketo, Google Analytics and other data sources, users will be able to bring together application-performance management data from providers such as New Relic and Compuware’s Gomez alongside analytics on domain-name server queries and big email campaigns.
Understanding DevOps – Part 4: Continuous Testing and Continuous Monitoring. What is the goal of Continuous Integration?
Is it to enable Continuous Delivery of the code developers’ produce out to users? Yes, eventually. But first and foremost it is to enable ongoing test and verification of the code. It is to validate that the code produced and integrated with that from other developers and with other components of the application, functions and performs as designed.

Optimizer Enhancements in MySQL 5.7. The MySQL optimizer is getting better.
MySQL 5.6 introduced: File sort optimizations with small limitIndex Condition PushdownBatched Key Access and Multi Range ReadPostponed MaterializationImproved Subquery executionEXPLAIN for Insert, Update, and DeleteOptimizer TracesStructured EXPLAIN in JSON format This was in addition to the InnoDB storage engine now offering improved statistics collection, leading to more stable query plans. In Evgeny Potemkin’s session at MySQL Connect titled “MySQL’s EXPLAIN Command New Features“, two new features for 5.7 were announced.
They are both incredibly useful, so I wanted to write a little about them. Normally with EXPLAIN, what you would be doing is finding the execution plan of a query you are intending to run, and then interpreting the output how you see fit. GitHub hit with major service outage after three minor outages three days i. 30 November '12, 09:00pm Follow GitHub is having a really bad week.
The service experienced minor interruptions (Partial Service Outage, as classified by GitHub) on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. On Friday though, the social coding site was hit really hard (Major Service Outage). We’ve been monitoring the situation all week, but since GitHub often has minor interruptions, we didn’t think it was worth reporting.
