Ok some of you are probably already familiar with the Apache Commons‘ BeanUtils framework, so this might not come as a surprise, but I have just discovered recently a class which I found myself in the past implementing bits of, one way or another: the BeanMap class! I swear, when dealing with loading random properties […]
Winter Wonderland 2011 — Hyde Park
Not the best photos — partly due to me being useless at it, partly due to my camera (well BlackBerry actually!) not being the best, but it did actually look pretty cool from the other side of Hyde Park:
This Is Where It Began…
I tweeted this photo the other day as well but I thought it deserves a bit more than just a tweet — having just met up with some old ex-Vibrant Media colleagues, right in the neck of the woods where we all started from. For all of you ex-Vibrant Media (or still in Vibrant Media) […]
Java Catalog 1.1
It’s only been 1 day since I published Java Catalog 1.0 and I got already feedback on this from 3 visitors! This beats any previous “records” on my website, I must confess, hence the rush to incorporate these into the code/package and publish a new version! Simone Tripodi, being the helpful guy he always is, […]
Java Catalog 1.0
It’s amazing what you find when you look closely at how you use a computer nowadays — I only just realised that ages ago I have put together this little Java application to help me sort out my mobile phone image collection every time I download them onto my computer…yet even though I’ve been using […]
Cognitive Match Karaoke
Going through my phone, these are long-forgotten pictures from a karaoke session we had at Cognitive Match. Thank God that Lucky Voice has private rooms, otherwise neighbors would have complained no doubt! 🙂 Even more so as the warm-up session in Belgo Central probably made the singing later on even worse 😉 Check out Rowan […]
Configure autofs auto.smb on Debian Linux
Yet another post from my old website brought back to life — just as with the previous such posts, I hope this still stands. Nowadays I’ve moved most of my “infrastructure” to Amazon, I don’t have to use this anymore, but I remember at the time having to do a bit of research into this […]
Automating iptables on Debian Linux
It’s interesting to dwell occasionally into researching how people are reaching my blog and what are they looking for when they do so. As you have seen so recently I have brought back a few old articles that seem to have triggered the attention of some people on the net — at least that’s what […]
J2ME: Scale an Image to Fit the Screen Size
It’s more and more common with the new generation of mobiles nowadays to have a megapixel camera built in the mobile itself. And with that comes the fact that if you ever want to allow your user to select one of the images s/he has captured with this camera (see above) you are dealing with […]
J2ME: Read an Image from the Device Filesystem
As you’ve seen with previous posts, I’m trying to make sure that all the stuff that used to be on my old website and people are still looking for is being brought back to light; and one of the search terms that I see redirecting people to my website is “j2me read file” — for […]
