 | Small world. I was working with a company back in 2009 and we wanted to move off the Palm Pilot to a smart phone which there were not a lot of choices back then. We** investigated the iPhone but** it's lack of the SPP Bluetooth Profile (serial port profile) meant … |
| | Lines 59 to 61 look dangerous for any version of VB. That is, that could seems to make an infinite number of message boxes but never exits so the boxes would never show. This may be new ground for you but line 60 does not instantly put up the message. …  |

| | My recurring fixes: 1. New batteries for the mouse (doesn't always apply.) 2. Another mouse. 3. Rare but once in a while I find folk the increased the polling rate or tried other tweaks. Fix? Go back to stock. |
 | For me such would not work because of the rather onerous document specifications. This work was for hardware design documents and later, the user manuals. But for you, maybe such could be used because what you need is doable by such or with say https://rytr.me which I'm trying out. But …  |
| | First, no. I don't use this one but there's a nugget at https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.Web.WebView2 "The WebView2 control enables you to embed web technologies (HTML, CSS, and JavaScript) in your native applications powered by Microsoft Edge (Chromium)." I'd be sure my HTML, WWW and other references all are default to Edge for … |
| | It's now 2 years since we permanently shuttered our last VB6 projects. The cost to develop was climbing as fewer and fewer programmers were available and then the final blow was the client thought the ongoing maintenance costs to be too high. Given this, it's time to move to a … |
| | Re: DoublePrecision Share the number type. Read https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/numeric-types.html Given this is usually a floating point number, almost every language will convert that to an internal floating point format and you'll lose digits after the decimal point. That's normal but let's hear why you need all the digits. Found a fiddle for you … |
 | I did find a nice old missile silo in Kansas. But my SO knew I was joking. I haven't bought a simple thing off a SocMe campaign and wanted to note how many scams there were there. It's not just me but the folk I know but hey, that could … |
| | Given the tag Windows-9x it seems unlikely there are many folk left running that old a version of Access. I certainly would have no hope of trying anything or testing any ideas today. Is there a chance you can move to something current? If so, here's a tutorial that looks … |
| | Frankly, this omits all the other details needed to craft said routines in assembly. The target system is unspecified and one might divine it's for some pre-EUFI 80x86 machine but with the changes in PCs and I might only have an Apple M2 computer, I would find this difficult to … |
| | The problem is that many ask for step by step often meant they want others to write it for them. My step by step would be to think how such would work and then automate it. Of course this would require the second step being to familiarize myself with the …  |
| | Which brings me to the following saying. > Jack of all trades, master of none. Another problem is there is NO ACCEPTED DEFINITION of Full-Stack because the stack changes from company to company. At this point I'm going to write this is some company wishing for that uber-programmer that will … |
| | So much left unspecified. Did you want to use MySQL from a C app? What's wrong with mysql_store_result? |
| | Show the code. Maybe your code is reading a string and while we could attempt string to integer why not input the number? I'm reading the tutorial at https://www.javatpoint.com/how-to-get-input-from-user-in-java and it doesn't seem too hard. |
| | Some told me FTX. I delayed and missed the ride. More at https://www.investopedia.com/ftx-exchange-5200842 |
| | I'm reading https://pypi.org/project/truth-table-generator/ and it seems to be a trivial exercise today. The code examples there are small and easy to copy, paste into your app. |
| | It could be you need the full Visual Studio and not the free VS Code. Visual Studio Code is an open source, free code editor that can be used with different programming languages like Angular, NodeJS, Java, JavaScript, C#, etc. VS Code can be integrated with git. Try it with … |
| | Or just phishing. Here's the message I received from another Daniweb member. I redacted their name: > It is my pleasure to contact you discreetly as to discuss a mutually beneficial business, I will want to have your trust and to go into partnership investment with you which must be …  |
| | I'm reading https://www.tutorialspoint.com/cryptography_with_python/cryptography_with_python_quick_guide.htm and it does seem like it's easy to implement.  |
| | I don't see anything new here. To me it's all about your app dynamically adjusting to screen size, aspect ratio and rotation. All this should be part of your app or web design now. A folding display does not add anything new to the development cycle EXCEPT getting example devices … |
| | One big problem. No one today would write that in any of the languages you listed. It would be web based with the usual backend and the frontend being a web browser. You might have to support smartphones too. I have to ask if there's something untold here such as … |
| | What's the timeframe here? Why I ask is that the Verizon and other outages may be a factor and it could bounce back. |
| | I see ideas at https://stackoverflow.com/questions/74385397/multiple-python-files-and-folders-to-dmg-file They mention macOS and py2app. Since we have many systems today, try to add those tags or mention which OS. |
| | I think you're the first to write "deriving" when it comes to app creation. Tell more. Right now I like TABNINE when I code. It's been a hoot to see how that works. What modern day tech are you using? |
 | Latest W10? There's some issue with associations. No, I can't tell if this is your issue but I found myself back at the command line to fix it. https://www.cnet.com/forums/discussions/windows-10-file-associations-text-files/ "Use the ASSOC then the FTYPE command in an elevated command prompt. Read how at https://superuser.com/questions/841497/windows-open-with-application-not-appearing-as-an-option/1020255 Using this I changed my … |
| | pradeg. Avoid old posts. http://www.techrepublic.com/forums/questions/how-do-i-replace-the-cmos-battery-on-a-vaio-laptop/ and many other priors about some models don't power up with old batteries. This includes the CMOS battery. Again, don't bury your post. |
| | Small world. There was a recent reddit on that and the conclusion was that the laptop was incompatible with Windows 10. The final advice was to run Windows 8 till the laptop dies. Said laptop was over 10 years old so it's not going to last much longer.  |
| | I cheated last time. I kept my old WiFi SSID and password on the new router to avoid setting up all the smart stuff. |
| | This is usually homework. Feel free to share what you have so far and share what is stopping you. |
| | Maybe it's one line? > Input value and units used such as 0C and print out the conversion is similar units such as Kelvin and Fahrenheit. Add support for other weights and meassures. |
| | Sure, let's do this one better! https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Factorial shows solutions in over 300 languages! https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Factorions shows the harder trick of Factorions! https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Sum_of_a_series shows summing up a series of numbers in over 160 languages. So let's get the PRETENTIOUS FACTOR up to 10 and say "The truth is out there!" |
| | Are you Carol? |
| | That's a bit vague. Some will want graphics, some are ok with ascii output. But hey, did you see if there's a ready to use open source version? I'll try. https://github.com/carlosmccosta/Dominoes is interesting as it claims to have an AI component! |

| | > l, I am talking about a tool which work for all online stores like Etsy, Alibaba, Walmart, etc. I've read such requests before and see why it's hard. Not only would it take a lot of work for the app's author but changes by the online stores means the … |
| | First we'll have to define those terms: From a Wikipedia, "Assume that we need to estimate average number of votes for each candidate in an election. Assume that country has 3 towns: Town A has 1 million factory workers, Town B has 2 million office workers and Town C has … |
| | I won't write code for this for a few reasons. The first is .NET doesn't reveal the language we would be using and second, I can't divine what the app in question is intended to do. Big picture matters so if I was doing research about tokens, refresh and my … |
| | While I never do this on laptops because, my choice to have a stable laptop over one the BSODs, I suggest another audience for the question. Try https://www.reddit.com/r/overclocking/ |
| | I'm out of date but didn't tracking pixels and a lot of other tracking burn down with browsers implementing blocking for tracking? > The tracker blocker in Opera does exactly that. Block known online trackers like analytic scripts, tracking pixels and other methods of data collection. Everyone I know turns … |
 | I must be in a weird circle. The only reason I and my friends have facebook is to take our page before some scammer does. I might check facebook every other month or less. I never found it to be interesting or necessary. Then again there's a joke about the …  |
| | I'm going to answer that intension, while explained at the web site you finally linked to appears to be much like "intention." I feel the English dictionary definition will suffice here. |
| | I lived in Canada for 8 years. We only had to go to the ICBC since we were in BC and ask. Our drivers license from the USA was good for many months as we navigated ICBC's requests and testing. |
| | For inspiration see the 111 (one hundred and eleven) or more solutions at https://rosettacode.org/wiki/Strip_whitespace_from_a_string/Top_and_tail |
 | My only worry would be if my new app was too close an imitation of say Doordash. Doordash might take offense and I'd be dealing with a cease and desist order. There are also concerns of copyright issues. But hey, there appears to be a market for such things. Let's … |
| | Keep in mind I am not an expert on Python but I do know that if you close a file that isn't open, that's the error message that I've seen. I am guessing the entire code wasn't shared because I can't seem to find the open and close code. Maybe … |
| | There's a lot left out in your requirements. For example I can't tell what coordinate system you use. Also, what defines best? Anyhow I was on a team on a GPS tracking system which we built from almost scratch (we didn't launch satellites but used an off the shelf GPS … |
| | With a steep decline in the use of books, today I read about "[Chuck Finley](https://www.huffpost.com/entry/librarian-rebellion-chuck-finley_n_586ff320e4b02b5f8588c1b6)" and how the people behind this scheme tried to save library books from being burned in Florida. If you have want to have books in the future, you may want to find a way to … |

| | Is this in raw native c++? No GUI or extra libraries? Maybe the old print a numbered list and you accept input in a string then parse to see what numbered items were selected. |
The End.
