  • What are the best books for PL/SQL and Forms for BEGINNERS?

    I asked about learning Oracle Forms in an earlier thread. Some suggested Oracle training at official Oracle Training centers like Koenig. I just went to the Koenig site. The OCA & OCP Forms Developer Training Boot Camp is a whopping 2,610 USD. That’s like 1/4 Million LKR. It’s more that the yearly salary of both the 2 new developers we got and want to train. That’s out of the question.
    Some have suggested shadowing experiences programmers and team coding. Both options are out, since those things don't work here.
    Learning from sites such as Francois Degrelle's blog is no good for new people since they will get confused.
    I have come to the conclusion that the only way to do is to buy 2 books, one for PL/SQL and another for Oracle Forms, give it to them and ask them to follow the book and learn it and also give a time period like 2 or 3 months.
    What are the good books out there for BEGINNERS to learn PL/SQL and Forms?

    In addition to the books the chapter Application Developer's Guide - Fundamentals in the documentation is also worth giving a shot:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14251/toc.htm
    Just for the record: I believe leaving them alone with the books won't do it. I'd at least define objectives (e.g. $chapters of the books in a week) and after they achieved them I'd test their knowledge of the individual objectives (like it was back in school :p ). By that you have control over how they are proceeding, you can focus on the things they didn't understand and you are able to eradicate some bad habits they might adopt during their studies.
    If you don't take your time to train them proper you won't get good developers anyway and you will loose much more time and money...

  • What are the best dimensions to allow for iPad 3 Retina for full-page landscape images?

    What are the best dimensions to allow for iPad 3 Retina for full-page landscape images?
    I read an article and cannot find it that said something about trying to make it 2million pixels and JPG to keep it small, but what exactly should the dimensions be that I ultimately import?  Is there some kind of a "density" setting I have to use, as well, when exporting from Photoshop, for example?

    See Optimizing performance in your iBooks Author books
    Density is discussed by Apple in this context as 'dpi'...

  • What are the best settings to use for the newest AirPort Extreme (AC wifi) with my optimum online service provider?

    I have the current generation of the AirPort Extreme and a handful of devices that utilize the new 5Ghz A/C frequency. My internet speeds were blazing fast when I had first set it up but lately it has been lagging terribly. I was told that changing my dhcp did help, which it did it seems like it might be back to its normal speeds but I just want to know what are the best settings to configure for the airport so that I can get the most out of my service on all my devices? I'm using a CAT 6 cable which does help, I have a guest wifi setup with a wifi password which I understand will slow it down a little. Can anyone just point me in the right direction or just give me a step by step guide on what settings to configure? Should I really consider turning off the guest network?

    I am assuming that you are looking to configure your network to provide the highest level of bandwidth possible for your network clients. If that is the case, the following are a few things to consider:
    The Internet modem should support Gigabit Ethernet. That is the Ethernet connection between the modem and your 802.11ac AirPort Extreme should be Gigabit Ethernet.
    Use CAT-5e or CAT-6 Ethernet cables between all wired connections.
    Only expect 802.11ac performance with 802.11ac clients in the same room as the base station.
    Eliminate or significantly reduce any forms of Wi-Fi interference on both the 2.4 & 5 GHz bands.
    When streaming, especially HD video on your local network, use wired connections between the host and player devices when possible.
    Other than the above suggestions there are no "magic" settings that you can make on your AirPort. Note: The Guest network shares the same bandwidth as the "main" network. Unless you have a network goal to provide this type of network, it is best left disabled.

  • What are the best imovie, mpeg4 settings for making dvds?

    What are the best imovie, mpeg4 settings for making dvds?

    • iMovie'08 to 11
    - Share to Media Browser - AND as Large (or Medium) - HD or other resolutions degrades the final result
    iMovie'08 to 11 are not the tools of choise if quality is important as they all degrade the picture by discarding every second line when going from, Event's to Project's and this can not be mended.
    iMovie HD6 and FinalCut delivers 100% of what any DVD-Authoring program needs.
    • DVD is as standard MAX - intrelaced SD-Video - and can not be any better than this
    • iDVD does only care about TIME / Duration as
    iDVD 08, 09 & 11 has three levels of qualities. (version 7.0.1, 7,0.4 & 7.1.1) and iDVD 6 has the two last ones
    • Professional Quality
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - BEST (but not always for short movies e.g. up to 45 minutes in total)
    • Best Performances
    (movies + menus less than 60 min.) - High quality on final DVD (Can be best for short movies)
    • High Quality (in iDVD08 or 09) / Best Quality (in iDVD6)
    (movies + menus up to 120 min.) - slightly lower quality than above
    Menu can take 15 minutes or even more - I use a very simple one with no audio or animation like ”Brushed Metal” in old Themes.
    About double on DL DVDs.
    • iDVD Does Region = Zero (to be played everywhere)
    • Frame rate - DVD can be in two types PAL (25fps) and NTSC (29.97fps)
    If Your material is 30fps then keep to NTSC (29.97fps), if 25fps keep to PAL.
    One can feed iDVD the other frame rate - BUT RESULTING DVD WILL BE BAD
    I use JES_Deinterlacer (free on Internet) to convert all material to the same and final frame rate
    • NTSC - US etc
    • PAL - EU etc

  • What are the best printer deployment practices for Win Server 2012 R2?

    I have about 40 printers deployed around my school. My users move around my building and log into several computers throughout the day. I need to consistently get the correct group of printers to map to the computer upon startup and set a default printer.
    I have tried to use GP, but the inability to set a default printer within the computer policy is a crippling issue. I have tried using third party software (Kaseya DPM) where I can set printers and default printers, but the real-world, daily deployment is
    inconsistent. I have a logon script that I used to use, but the printers were trying to map before the network was established; the printer mapping was failing because the script was too fast.
    This is not a new idea. What is the best way to consistently deploy printers that are mapped to specific computers?

    Why not using user policy with item level targeting for the computer name?

  • What are the best Color "Display Settings" for both my Macbook Pro Retina and Thunderbolt Display??

    I have recently purchased a Thunderbolt Display for my MBPr (early 2013) and was wondering what were the best settings for both to obtain an equal color and graphic appearance. I want to have them identical for working on graphics and illustrations.
    Thanks

    I have the same laptop. There's nothing you really need to do to optimise the system. Perhaps just install the cuda drivers.

  • What is the best Book Cataloguing software for iMac. I have about 5000 books I would like to bar-code scan into my iMac. Thanks

    What is the best software for cataloguing a large book collection into my iMAc. I would like to use a hand-held scanner, and scan bar codes, entering ISBN numbers only when necessary. Currently using Book Collector (www.collectorz.com) on a PC. desktop

    I did something similar and used an application for my phone (Android OS at the time), which I can't recall the name of, to bulk scan the bar codes and subsequently upload the list to my mac in the form of an excel spreadsheet (it was a csv file). When I migrated to an iPhone, the application "Bar code scanner" performed in the same manner. Using my phone was by far the easiest method of bulk scanning (and subsequently cataloguing on my machine) in both instances.

  • What is the best book in Java for a begginer?

    Hi everyone,
    I would be grateful if you could recommend a good book on Java for someone like me who is a beginner, and has very little knowledge on C/C++.
    Thanks for your time

    Hi,
    Best is definitely a relative attribute. What works for you may not work for me. However, if you are like me, you will love this book.
    Head First Java
    Your Brain on Java - A Learner's Guide
    by Bert Bates and Kathy Sierra.
    You can take a look at the contents and sample chapters at the Oreilly site: http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/hfjava/
    This book has been made with the normal average learner in mind. It is not exactly a 'dummies' book. It is a smart book which uses the many ideas of learning theory well to help the reader "work through" it while having fun!
    You can checkout Kathy Sierra's blog "Creating Passionate Users"
    http://headrush.typepad.com/ to get an idea of the voice of the book.
    Again, as I mentioned in the beginning what is good is a matter of opinion, goals and preference.
    Cheers!

  • What are the best quality wireless speakers for use with iTunes

    I'm not sure which is the best forum for this.  SO here goes:
    I want to replace my wired powered speakers from my iMac with wireless so I can place them further away and clean up the desptop area.  I want decent sound and volume not tinny little portable junk.  But it doesn't need to meet audiophile standards either,
    What am I looking for?  Thanks.

    Intel processor in you MB Pro? Need it to capture avchd.
    regarding file size and the need for external drive:
    "AVCHD output files are about 120Mb per minute of footage. The converted output file will be about four times the size of the input. This is because AVCHD is a highly compressed HD format and we are uncompressing it into a Quicktime-friendly high definition format. Our example 1 minute AVCHD clip becomes about 500Mb in size, after conversion.
    The final size of a converted clip has a lot to do with the amount of movement in the clip. A lot of movement will mean a larger file. Action clips can be as high as 7 times the size of the raw clips."

  • What are the best portable Bluetooth keyboards for 3rd G and 4G iPod Touch?

    I have both a 32 Gb 3G iPod Touch and a new 8 Gb 4G iPod Touch which I am trying to determine the best choices of a portable (folding or otherwise) Bluetooth keyboard to facilitate faster typing than using that on the iPod.  I have reviewed similar excellent threads for recommendations for folding boards for the iPad, but these threads are two years old with last entries in 2010, so I am opening this thread in hopes that additonal product recommendations might be available.
    My purpose is to select a good quality one that functions well for a touch typist (moderately skilled).  I am thinking that the Apple one is a bit bulky to carry around, but also I realize the folding models also have limitations for touch typists.  One I have been considering recently is the Verbatum  Wireless Bluetooth Mobile Folding Keyboard for various later model Apple products for iPhone, IPod, and IPad that is currently selling around $50.
    I would appreciate any experience and recommendations that people that have use this product or others that they would reccomend.

  • What are the best accessories to buy for an iphone?

    I bought an iPhone this xmas, and i'm curious which are the better or best accessories one should buy?
    I'm thinking of another usb cord, so i can leave the dock on my computer and just bring the outlet plug and usb cord on when i'm mobile.
    But then i was thinking maybe just buy the Iphone bluetooth headset as it comes with the cord, and a new doc, as well as the bluetooth.
    I think it almost makes more sense to buy it since the usb cord by itself is a ridiculous $20.
    I already have my iphone covered with a bodyguardz skin (on the back) and a crystal film on the front for protection.

    I like that case. Its very nice. I wouldnt mind a pouch like case. I think i might get one of these. Thanks. So many colors to choose from
    I keep thinking that i wont drop the iphone, but i'm sure i will and some form of a case would probably be a smart idea. I just dread the idea of a case on the phone
    This pouch looks like a nice trade off.
    Has it scratched your iphone at all?

  • What are the BEST books for Oracle database architect/designer?

    What concrete books would you recommend for OLTP database developer (to start from the scratch, starting from data sources analysis, logical and physical data modeling, indexes, tuning, maintaining). It doesn't have to be a book particulary for Oracle but suitable for it..
    I don't mean books DBA's or overall Oracle handbooks, also not for OLAP.
    Thanks!

    For learning how to use Oracle database effectively, i would say
    Tom Kyte's both books:
    Effective Oracle by design
    & Expert Oracle Database Architecture
    Jonathan Lewis's
    Practical Oracle 8i
    They tell you all the stuff: what/how to do something? and most importantly what/how not to do ?
    And their writing style is just awesome :)

  • What are the best tools and software for iPad presentations (including remotes)?

    I'm using an iPad 4th generation device and my software includes Haiku Deck and Keynote. I've fully used Haiku Deck so I don't want to discuss that too much (love the software!). I'm curious about working with Keynote and PowerPoint and any others that are compatible. I also am looking for solutions for remote control devices. It's not clear to me what devices work with iPads, as most apps describe controlling a Mac computer with an iOS device. So far I've had trouble using an iPod Touch 4th generation which is troubling. I can connect all kinds of devices to my iPad, such as Bluetooth keyboards and an Android phone, but the Touch running iOS 6 will not seem to connect. In other words I can't use it to control Keynote on IPad which is disappointing. Please advise on software and remotes. Thank you.
