Storing Media Files in MongoDB + Streaming Back the Chunks
In case you’re unaware, there’s a database system called MongoDB that stores documents in collections unlike an SQL relational database management system that stores rows in tables. And, unlike an RDBMS, MongoDB developers do not declare the schema for data that will go into each document. Anyway, MongoDB is really good at sharding data across a…

My Motorcycle Escort to Night Trips
This whole strip bar issue is really upsetting to some people. I was married to one of those people. And then I was married to a former stripper, so I’ve seen it from both sides. I said on Facebook a while back that I was sure that these strip bars were a gift from God.…

FlashDevelop and Greensock’s TweenLite
If you’re writing Flash applications in AS3 or using the Flex framework or wanting to write browser or desktop AIR applications, then you just have to get’ya FlashDevelop. http://www.flashdevelop.org/ Now, I’m sure Adobe’s own programming tools (Flex Builder?) are probably terrific, but I haven’t been in a position to pay for them so I haven’t…

State of the Union Address 2012
No, I’m not going to put a picture of me running for President this year. In fact, this is the first presidential election since Election 2008 that I have not run for POTUS. The State of the Union is good today. Actually, the state is always good. I try to buck against boredom and hate…

Intelligence is not Genetic
Intelligence is not genetic. I’m not smart because of genes, I’m smart because of people and me. Anyone, ANYONE, can be as smart as they want to be. Intelligence is built up by pouring information into a baby. She plays, she asks, she asks again.

Support Tanner Berryhill’s NASCAR Racing Dream
Man, the Berryhill family hired me to work for them when no one else would, and after I had been a total jerk to them (for which I have and do now again apologize profusely). They’re very excited about racing, always have been, and I know some people reading this blog know some people who…

So how does this work?
The plan in 2004 (or was it 2003?) was to pull off something so gigantic that it couldn’t possibly have been pulled off by one person, a crazy person, and therefore would prove the influence of imaginary friends.

Project Elbow: FileManager
Another night of programming. Since it’s just not a good idea for loaded modules to be calling the FileLoader (or SQLManager) classes directly, I’ve created the FileManager class to load files for them. The FileManager also limits the numbers of files being simultaneously loaded to a preset number so in case the files are actually…

Project Elbow: Storing Metadata Along with File
Woke up at 2:30, so decided to do some Elbow. Decided I needed a more spread out directory structure for the cache files. I could probably look up the most efficient way to do this, cross-platform, or by using some AIR facility, but 26 top level directories each leading to 26 second level directories is…

Project Elbow: Transparent Caching
The FileLoader class now moves the downloaded file into a hashed directory system. When a new FileLoader is created and load() called, the class first checks to see if the file already exists in the directory system. If so, it transparently dispatches the Complete event. The FileManager class is actually used to create FileLoader instances.…

Project Elbow: Using the Adobe AIR SQLite Database
Much happy face this morning. Yesterday I worked from like 1:30am ’till 5 on trying to store the media files downloaded from the Elbow service provider in the SQLite database provided by the Adobe AIR platform. In my mind, this was a better alternative than caching the file on the PC’s file system, but I…

Project Elbow: Files by Name
The SQLManager class was extended to manage a table that maps a logical filename to a cache ID. The FileLoader class was extended to accept either a FileId or string (filename) in its constructor. Once FileLoader.load() is called, if the class was instantiated with a filename, then it will search the database for a mapping…

Gravity: It’s a choice, lovely fool.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gravitation In the video I’m about to link up, I sort of make fun of how scientific minds like to say things are “facts,” but I don’t know that science ever actually calls something a fact. Look at this Wikipedia article about Gravitation – they describe gravity as a natural phenomenon. Wow, that is spot on.…
