Laravel vs Django

amunriel — Wed, 09 Oct 2013 20:54:44 +0800

Hi guys, for any sifus out there which have used both of these frameworks, mind sharing some insight as to their pros and cons? Also, in terms of their ORM, which is currently better? Can any of them contend with SQLalchemy from python?

GF/BF too Clingy or Too Dependent?

amunriel — Wed, 16 Feb 2011 17:32:19 +0800

Ever had a girlfriend/boyfriend that is too clingy or too dependent?

When I say clingy meaning she would want to spend 24/7 with you, and if you dont, he/she becomes unhappy and question alot on who you go out with etc. She will expect you to company him/her even just to get the newspaper across the street.

Dependent side meaning he/she does not know how to do alot of normal chores or solving simple problems, and will need you to teach or do them for him/her. For example, setting up a microwave or tidy up the wardrobe or even opening the suitcase kind of simple chore.

Also they tend to be quite emotional and can be pissed for little things and expect you to comfort them.In chinese we say siu hei/ xiao qi.

These guys/girls usually has a common symptom called "Princess Sickness".

They can be really nice and willing to sacrifice alot for you, but they can be too much and frustrating at times.

How do you deal with this type of partner?

Android settings for Maxis Mobile Internet

amunriel — Fri, 11 Feb 2011 02:01:31 +0800

I have tried all possible settings on the internet, even the one stated in Desire HD thread, is anyone using the mobile internet for Hotlink, kindly share your working APN configuration.

FYI, I activated Prepaid Broadband before, and swapped profile before, now I have initiated to swap back to Hotlink instead of Broadband Profile. But my phone still tells me incorrect APN configuration even when I have tried all possible configurations.

Currently network mode, I have set to GSM only, I doubt this is the affecting factor.

Quicksort

amunriel — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 18:48:38 +0800

How come this quicksort doesnt work? The test input was {3,1,2,11,9,6,4,5,14}
but the quicksort outputs 1,1,2,3,9,6,4,4,4 which is completely screwed up

I am setting the pivot using the 1st element instead of random.

Please any guru out there can help me with this, its sorta urgent.

QUOTE

void
quicksort(int test[],int n)
{
int p,i,j,leftsize,rightsize;
int left[n],right[n];
leftsize = 0;
rightsize = 0;

if(n>1){
p = test[0];
for(i=1;i<n;i++){
if(test[i]<=p){
left[leftsize]=test[i];
leftsize++;
}else{
right[rightsize]=test[i];
rightsize++;
}
}

quicksort(left,leftsize);
quicksort(right,rightsize);

for(j=0;j<leftsize;j++){
test[j]= left[j];
}
test[leftsize+1] = p;
for(j=0;j<rightsize;j++){
test[j+1+rightsize]= right[j];
}
}
}

Mergesort

amunriel — Tue, 12 Jan 2010 17:30:40 +0800

Segmentation fault for merge function, I tried debugging this code and found that the merge function is producing segmentation fault, can anyone tell me whats the reason? I cant seem to fix it.

void merge(int one[], int two[], int n, int m, int merged[]);

Or is there any better Asia located choices that I could choose from?

I would wish for similar prices with free domain for life and unlimited* shared webhosting will be suffice.
