Re: #lazytwitter If you were helping a complete novice to learn to program, what would you teach them first?

Ohh good question. Having mulled it over, I would go for HTML and Javascript. It can be done in Notepad so is free and has instant response (rather than having to compile it or some such nonsence).

It has similarities to C and Java so gives a good grounding in the basics of coding and can be taken to the level of objects.

Depends what you want to do but 127.0.0.1 (your local machine) should always work. If you want an internet address try 64.208.34.100 which should be Google.com.

Re: Dear Lazyweb, google is failing me. Can anyone link me the order of countries coming into the stadium? It's not alphabetical!

"Marching order for the athletes of different countries will be based on the order of strokes of the simplified Chinese characters. However, traditionally Greece will be the first team to enter into the stadium to march."

Re: Lazyweb, is it better to store files IN a database table, or to store the location?

CrimsonSoul — Wed, 06 Aug 2008 13:03:06 -0000

Many of the applications I support store the location. The files they refer to are generally small and only available in the app as a download (i.e. there's no need to display the contents).
