Installing MySQL Cluster on Mac OS X Lion
We had to work with MySQL Cluster for our midterm assignment in AA class. Most of my group members were on Macs, and we found out that there were no precompiled Mac binaries for MySQL Cluster. Furthermore, the instructions given by MySQL were misleading. Their documentation stated that
Mac OS X users should download the Quick Start Guide for Linux.
But said nothing about the fact that the...
Trying out Play!
Play! is a spankin’ new Java web framework that looks a lot like Ruby on Rails, but in Java, of course. It’s cool and refreshing and exciting because it does away with complicated J2EE stacks and throws the concept of servlets out of the window. However, for not being able to deploy a Play! app in a traditional way, you get many awesome things that eluded Java web development for ages,...

Make SMU's Facility Booking System Use All Browser...
Hello SMU world.
It’s the time of the term again where people make mass bookings to secure GSRs for the study break. Which means, there’s bound to be a lot of cursing and swearing at the decade-old Facility Booking System which CIT (now IITS) doesn’t care to fix for modern web browsers like Safari, Chrome and Firefox.
So here’s something which I wrote to maybe help...

all that glitters: Bruno Mars type, →
sharonbunny:
You know I thought about it, an offhand thought. Bruno Mars is so popular because someone is finally writing positive songs. Not about some rap dirrrrty girl or about some hot mamaohyeahohyeah that completely objectifies and degrades women, making them believe that they are only valued…
(I’m a guy, but I really agree with this too. And that’s how my God, my...

Tumblr iPhone App?
I feel like writing an iPhone app for Tumblr. Not another clone of the official one, but something geared towards specially just viewing all of those pretty pics and quotes that Tumblr users love to reblog. :)
Or another idea is to write a script that grabs the day’s pretty pics and puts them on my desktop as wallpaper. How does that sound?
Guess The Language
This is a test post to see if syntax highlighting works.
def guess_the_language(a)
if a.strip == "ruby"
puts "YOU ARE AWESOME. We love you!"
else
puts "Neh. Try again."
end
end
print "Guess what language am I? "
guess = gets

Thanks ah, I feel really loved. What a way to start the year, Lord. :/

What does an investment bank do?
Straightforward Answer (after hours Googling and going to the library and reading):
Investment banks basically help companies and other organisations that need to raise money.
These companies will issue shares, the investment bank buys a bulk of those shares, giving companies the immediate capital it needs. The bank thus resells these shares to other investors, earning them profit.
In modern...

Hate = Benci
I hate you - Saya benci kamu
I don’t hate you - Saya tidak benci kamu
Stop hating me - tidak membenci saya

I’m not mad at you - Saya tidak marah sama kamu
Don’t be angry at me - Jangan marah padaku
Ok so what’s the difference...
