JavaScript: Sort object by a value
Actually the headline is not really what I want to say :-). But I don't know any better yet. I just want to write down how I solved sorting the following: >>> var maxSpeed = {car:300, bike:60, motorbike:200, airplane:1000, helicopter:400, rocket:8*60*60} This is a list of vehicles with their (approx.) ... -
Just for always and for ever be with me
Idén is, ahogy már tavaly is, noha ezúttal új köntösben, van szerencsém bemutatni az érdeklődő hallgatóságnak a webes technológiák egy éppen aktuális gyöngyszemét. A 2006-os Magyarországi Web Konferencián Django: Python on Rails címmel fogok előadást tartani. 17-én, szombaton 22.00-kor a Love Alliance Soundsystem lép fel a Sarkban. Február 23-án pedig a ... -
(defun webconf () (”Jó volt, szép volt”))
Végetért a 2007-es Magyarországi Web Konferencia. A CEU konferencia központ négy termében párhuzamosan zajló, összesen 24 előadás komoly szakmai anyaggal várta az érdeklődő közönséget – a Java és ASP.NET gyakorlati bemutatókon keresztül az elméletibb síkon mozgó eszmefuttatásokig. Alkalmazásfejlestés Djangóval és GWT-vel címmel tartott előadásomat a teli hasú hallgatóság számára gondolatébresztőnek szántam, ... -
Web Konferencia 2007.programfüzet.publish()
A Lisp kódok hadát némileg félretéve örömmel jelenthetem be a már korábban meghirdetett Magyarországi Web Konferencia 2007. évi állomását. A minap közzétett programfüzet híven tükrözi a rendezvényen felmutatott a PHP Konferencia-sorozat óta egyre szélesedő technológiák halmazát. Idén az Xdebug eszközt bemutató előadásom mellett az elmaradt Workshop 2.0-ra szánt, a Django ... -

Customize admin for User model
Before django 1.0 I don't remember that there was a way to customize how the admin renders the User overview. Fortunately 1.0 does allow it. It took me a bit to figure out. After searching the web and the django docs I didn't find it right away, so I tried the ... -
Adobe Air Tour Europe stopped in Munich
Fortunately Tobias found out one day before that Adobe was touring with Air and coming to Munich. Adobe really had provided everything, from breakfast, drinks, lunch too I guess (we weren't there) and beer afterwards (that we didn't miss). It was really impressive. The talks were very Air focused, I ... -

Django’s dev server and UTF-8
From time to time I got this UnicodeEncodeError, but I had done all the things (sitecustomize.py, some more) right in order to configure the system in UTF-8. I thought. I did the usual ./manage runserver and since I assumed that on my Mac everything is already properly configured ... -

Video Blogging using Django and Flash(tm) Video (FLV)
I just added Flash-based (FLV) video blogging support to my Django-powered travel portal site, trogger.de. The whole process is surprisingly simple and straightforward and can be done entirely with free (FLOSS) tools. The video publishing workflow consists of the following parts: A Django model to store our video and associated information An upload form where the user can [...] -
Cited in Bangalore - How cool is that?
As Pradeep just pointed out in my Blog comments, he used parts of my posting on video blogging with Django (which is funnily enough always referenced as “Create your own YouTube site” - a claim I wouldn’t have dared make myself ) as basis/inspiration for a presentation at Bar Camp Bangalore. BarCamp describes [...] -

An interesting (well, to me anyway) tangent to my recent post about GetAFreelancer. While looking through my Google Analytics report, I just found a number of referrals from rentacoder.com. Looking further, I find that someone had been looking for a developer for build a solution for “Video Blogging using Django and Flash(tm) Video (FLV)”.If this [...] -
