This is because your starting index is 0 for both loops. Breaking down the inner loop it will be run 0 for i = 0, 1 for i = 1, 2 for i = 2... to n times for i = n (executing from 0 to n-1). This equals the sum for i = 0 to n of i which can be solved to n(n+1)/2 not n(n-1)/2. In the scheme of things this subtly will not affect the big-oh. I just wanted to point out one of the intricacies of zero based indexing.

Apps are useless to developers now that they've been hidden behind a tab and I think many sites have moved onto fbConnect as a consequence. While I found FriendFeed to be guilty of over-aggregation, I feel like pulling that mess into facebook might actually start to balance that out.

Those who buy their computers ready to go from places like PC World will likely find it has IE8 pre-installed for them, and perhaps an alternative like Mozilla Firefox as well. The problem now though becomes which browser vendor has the money to pay for the prime spot on these machines? Judging by Opera's response on CNet over this issue, it's not them.

I think what happened was that there were subsidies in place to lay the networks years ago and regulations requiring telecom companies to share their infrastructure with the competition, so pricing is a little more competitive. Despite this most rural areas have limited access, so part of Obama's recent stimulus bill includes funding for that.

Scriptaculous can do the pulsate effect just by doing, Effect.Pulsate('id-of-element') - whereas at the time of writing mooTools did not have anything built in to do that which meant finding some code on the 'net that someones written as an extension, or writing your own. I do totally agree though that mooTools is designed to be more abstract, I was trying to aim this article more at users that have not used a framework before and may be relatively new to JavaScript and so tried to take the article from their perspective. You're absolutely right though, from a more advanced users point of view like the first poster, mooTools would probably be better as it is lighter weight and so isn't going to have so much of the "fluff" that prototype/scriptaculous has that is unlikely to be used. I might at some point in the future write an article on using and extending mooTools, and how to use it to get some of the functions that Scriptaculous has. I'm also planning on writing a jQuery one very soon.]]> http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/313 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/313 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/313#comment332 Wed, 28 Nov 2007 12:36:52 +0000 Java / JavaScript / JSP David G.

Some thoughts: I'm quite sure that mootools at this time can do many if not all of the effects listed in the effects comparison. It may be, however, that mootools does not include specific functions for effects that can be produced using more basic functions. The purpose of mootools is to be as compact and abstract as possible -- to avoid redundancy in function definitions, etc. That said, I often have a very hard time getting mootools to work -- it has a very steep learning curve and assumes a deep understanding of class-based object oriented programming. For beginning and intermediate scripters, then, scriptaculous is probably a better choice.]]> http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/313 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/313 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/313#comment249 Sat, 08 Sep 2007 04:14:53 +0000 Java / JavaScript / JSP David G.

First, I realized that I didn't provide my name in my last post. That?s rude of me and I apologize for that. My name is Rey Bango and again, I'm with the jQuery project. It?s my pleasure to meet you. Next, I want to assure you that I'm by no means offended. If anything, I want to ensure that if a person has any concerns about jQuery, that they get the information and attention they need to be successful. The jQuery project truly has a strong commitment to user satisfaction and we do our best to help developers get the most out of the library. The code that you mentioned uses a technique called ?chaining? (I?m sure you?re familiar with it) and it isn?t a requirement for successful use of the jQuery library. It?s a very nice and widely adopted functionality that allows you to minimize your code by chaining methods that affect a specific object or objects. Chaining can be found in almost every major JavaScript library including Ext, Prototype, MooTools and Dojo and is actively promoted as a development method by these libraries. I ask that you look at this link from the Prototype site, which explicitly promotes chaining because of its convenience: http://www.prototypejs.org/learn/extensions With a rather long set of chained methods, I can certainly see your point about debugging being a concern, something that would be equally shared if using any library that supported chained methods. With that said, there?s certainly nothing that would prevent you from making the code a bit more procedural in nature. The chaining is just there for convenience. I would ask that you take a second look at jQuery as you might be very surprised at its capabilities and impressed with the user community. And if you do come by, please let me know so that I can ensure you get the right answers to your questions. ]]> http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/332 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/332 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/332#comment229 Thu, 19 Jul 2007 03:49:34 +0000 Anonymous says: crap]]> http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/131 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/131 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/131#comment224 Wed, 18 Jul 2007 21:08:18 +0000 Adobe Photoshop David G. Paul says: Sorry for the lack of an explanation. I think my preference for Prototype over jQuery comes from a few things, mostly down to how I've seen other developers use it compared to my own personal preference for coding styles. The following examples is one of your own, and is for the most part what I'm not too keen on - the stringing together of so much. $("a") .filter(".clickme") .click(function(){ alert("You are now leaving the site."); }) .end() .filter(".hideme") .click(function(){ $(this).hide(); return false; }) .end(); Whilst it certainly has it's uses, and I'm sure one day I may end up using it for something myself too - I find the above code is one that can be difficult when needing to be debugged since you have to start breaking it up to find out where it's gone wrong. Obviously the above code will work, but hopefully you can suggest a way of easily debugging code in such cases when it doesn't. Sorry if the post offended you, it certainly wasn't meant to.]]> http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/332 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/332 http://www.newearthonline.co.uk/article/332#comment223 Wed, 18 Jul 2007 19:49:30 +0000 Anonymous says: Hi David. Being part of the jQuery project team, I'm always concerned about these types of vague posts and would certainly be interested in what concerns you have about the jQuery library. Since you're recommending folks not to consider it, I'd like to understand the rationale behind your suggestions. And of course, if you've had specific trouble in working with the library, I'd like to see how we can help. Considering that we have one of the most vibrant and supportive communities of any open source framework, I'm surprised that you've had trouble getting a grip on it, especially since the majority of jQuery users I've chatted with are ProtoType converts.

From http://www.feedreader.com/node/289: "Intelliupdate tries to do it. For example if there is only one new article in few days in some feed, there is no point of polling this feed every 10 minutes. And for example if there are new items every 10 minutes then Feedreader polls for new items every 10 minutes." Since there are some occassions where I don't update for a couple of days FeedReader is likely to assume it doesn't need to check again for a few days.

I thought I should inform you that there seems to be some sort of problem with your RSS Feed. I'm subscribed to your feed through the software called FeedReader and feeds from all other sources turn up in time.. except for New Earth Online. More often than not, your feeds appears 4-5days late and that too NOT in order. Say, I'd receive one of your recent posts and one post from 3-4 days back. This hasn't happened just once - it invariable happens everytime. A lot of times, if I find some new feed interesting and drop by your site to check it out I'm unable to find the post on the front page - coz by then you're made some more posts and that particular article has moved out to some other page. It might be some problem with my feed reader - but then it should act the same with all other sources too, right? So you might want to take a look and see if your feed mechanism is actually in perfect order.

There are places where you see other visual methods that are more complicated, where the characters are obscured - but in most cases a computer can read these better than a human. A possibly better way is to use a simple question to verify they are human, such as "What colour is the sky?" - it is true that a bot could also be trained to answer these, but it is less likely.
