I want some project ideas for the theme: 'Risks and Benefits'

My high school organizes a C# contest on the theme 'Risks and Benefits', and we have to anticipate what they can give us to do.
I would appreciate some ideas!
...Sorry if I put the question on a wrong forum...

Hi OVlad,
Actually this forum is to discuss VS IDE, so I’m afraid that it is not the correct forum.
In addition, the specific language development forum are discuss the issues when you develop apps, so if you want to develop an app or you want to get the whole demo, I’m afraid that it is out support the language development forum, but if you get any code
issues when you create the app, you could post this issue to these forums like the C# forum here:
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/home?forum=csharpgeneral
Anyway, since it is not the VS IDE issue, I will move this thread to the off-topic forum. Thanks for your cooperation.
Best Regards,
We are trying to better understand customer views on social support experience, so your participation in this interview project would be greatly appreciated if you have time. Thanks for helping make community forums a great place.

  • I want to accumulate rain for the day, month and year; What formula can I use?

    I want to accumulate rain for the day, month and year; What formula or expression can I use.
    I am using a Rain Wise product that converts pulses to an analog value.  The Rain Wise device can be
    set to measure up to 1", 5", or 10".  I will be setting the unit to 10 inches in increments of 0.01 inches.
    What I would like to do is everytime the signal increments I would like to count it as 0.01 then after reaching
    a period of time whether it be a day or a month reset back to zero.
    Need some advise on this problem.
    Solved!

    Hello Ryan,
    Lookout gets a Modbus over Ethernet signal which originates as a 4-20mA input to a Moxa Ethernet I/O Module (E1240) in the field.  In Lookout I created a ModbusEthernet Driver and a tag which scales 0 - 65534 RAW to 0-10 Eng.  [0 - 10 is inches of rain]  Also, another piece of information is that after the rain gauge maxes out at 10 inches it will zero out and start over.
    I though the accumulator was time based and took a sample over a specific time period, for instance, one sample every 30 seconds then accumulate.  If this is so then if I have 5 inches of rain and then it stopped raining, then 30 seconds latter it would sample, it would see 5 inches and add that to be 10 inches when actually it had only rained 5 inches. 
    I really need some help with this process,

  • Hey, I have $2350-2400 and I want some proper guidance for the macbook pro

    HEY!!!
    Guys I will try to make this as easy as possible!
    First let me tell you I am 15, I love graphics, music and literature and I have no credit card, my iTunes account has no money, I'm using an account that doesn't require credit cards! So (ugh) I buy all the free apps
    Anyway
    Dad gave me $2400 to buy a macbook pro and keep the change but since I live in Italy, I have to convert them to Euros.
    $2400-1821 EUR
    So I came up with 2 conclusions and I just want some opinions on which is the smarter decision.
    Well apparently there are 4 types of laptops I can get right now from the macs.....
    to make this as simple and as easy as possible (and to show off my ICT skills ) I made a table which includes
    1) the laptop mentioned
    2) the price in dollars (which I got directly from the apple store in the US)
    3) the price in euros (which I got directly from the apple store in Europe)
    Macbook Pro Kind
    Price in dollars
    Price in EUR
    13-inch: 2.5GHz
    $1119.00
    1249.00 EUR
    13-inch: 2.9GHz
    $1499.00
    1549.00 EUR
    13-inch: 2.5GHz with Retina Display
    $1499.00
    1549.00 EUR
    13-inch: 2.6GHz with Retina Display
    $1699.00
    1749.00 EUR
    But you can install somethings on to your laptop right there in the shop and I wanted two things,
    1) pages: I thought would help with my writing because I write poems, novels, stories, etc
    2) numbers: this program just deals with spreadsheets and charts and just the mathematical area and thought that this would help when doing A levels and GCSE math
    3)keynote: This is basically like power point and it just makes presentations.
    each of these programs are 18 EUR
    One more thing, since I am planning on using this laptop for several years, I change  changing countries often and so the laptop can come with an adapter that works in both European and American countries
    But thats 80 EUR
    The laptop (the edition i want) is 1749 EUR
    that means with all these additional stuff
    I calculated it on the apple store
    1749.00 EUR + 18 EUR + 18 EUR+ 18 EUR 80 EUR = 1883.01 EUR
    If we were in america then according to the website's store
    $1699 + $19.99 + $19.99 + $19.99 + $79.00=  $1847.96
    I'd be buying the SAME amount of things in the States for $1847.96 and I'd have 552 dollars change but in Italy everything would cost 1883.01 EUR which is the equivalent of $2481.61 which is more expensive than the US!
    BUT
    You have to consider the fact that this is with all the additional costs
    The additional things I thought I'd need
    If I said "no just buy the laptop"
    then the correct price in dollars is $1699
    the correct price in euros would be 1749 EUR
    the laptop only. No extra features.
    1749 EUR in Dollars would be $2305!
    Exactly $2305!
    That means I would only have had 95 dollars difference.
    Anyway the bottom line is all these additional things that I was talking about, the softwares and everything, they're going to help me in the near future, not RIGHT now.
    So what I can do is just buy the laptop and then as I progress in to year eleven, slowly by slowly, I can start buying the softwares.
    I'm sorry I'm unburdening ALL these different information on you, but I just wanted to approach this from as many angles and be as aware of all the variables as possible.
    SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
    (THIS IS THE CONCLUSION)
    OPTION ONE
    Buy the 13-inch: 2.6GHz with Retina Display Macbook Pro for 1749.00 EUR including all the additional features (the three softwares and the adapter which together have the total value of 134 EUR)
    Therefore the total amount of money we'd be spending is
    1883.01 EUR
    That means the total cost of everything would be $2481.62 and I'd get no difference
    OPTION TWO
    Buy the 13-inch: 2.6GHz with Retina Display Macbook Pro for 1749.00 EUR and then when I am 16 or 18 I buy these softwares with a credit card and apply them for my A levels later.
    That means the total amount we'll be spending is
    1749.00 EUR
    Which is $2305
    I will have $95 (72 EUR) pocket money.
    (BY THE WAY, MY PARENTS WORK FOR THE UNITED NATIONS AND DON'T PAY VAT OR SOMETHING AND SO WE KIND OF SOMEHOW GET A 20% DISCOUNT SO THE PRICES WILL BE A BIT OFF AND CHEAPER.... I JUST CAN'T BE BOTHERED TO DO ALL OF THE CALCULATIONS BUT YEAH.....................)
    Thanks for reading
    Please reply ASAP I'm buying the mac extremley soon.....

  • I want a job for apple in which I design the actual iPods, iPhones, iPads, and iMacs. What is this called? I do not necessarily want to do any internal stuff. I would like to design the actual device and help build it. I want to give ideas for the devices

    I would love a job where I can help make the blueprints of how I devices will be made. I want a job where I can more so help plan the creating of every new device rather than building the already planned devices.

    There is no simple job description or position that would fit. The jobs of design are generally split among many people and roles. You might try viewing the existing jobs; that might give you some clues as to avenues of education and job experience to pursue. Viewing the Design jobs might give you at least a start:

  • A great idea for the Live Chat and Website!

    My idea is -
    Invest some time to educate the BT.com website staff to type the correct information on the website or take a lesson on the 'BT Data Protection Policy'.
    I just wasted 30 minutes of life beacuse of total **bleep** up.
    The BT website states this:
    You can chat to one of our advisors who will let you know your account number online.
    At this address:  https://www.bt.com/appsyouraccount/secure/ebilling​.do# 
    But this is the conversation you get after wasting 30 minutes of your time:
    Vaseem : Hello. I'm Vaseem . Thanks for that information, I'll check it and get back to you in a moment.
     Vaseem : Hello David
     David xxxx: Hi Vaseem
     Vaseem : I understand that you wish to get your BT account number is that correct?
     David xxxx: yes please and clarify when my appointment is for BT broadband
     Vaseem : Not to worry , I am here to help you.
     David xxxx: thx
     Vaseem : Could you please confirm your address with post code and telephone number.
     David xxxx: xxxx
     Vaseem : Thank you. Please give me a minute, while I check the details for you.
     Vaseem : I am afraid that we are not supposed to give the BT account number over the phone/e-mail or chat due to data protection policy. However, I will arrange a copy of bill with free of charge to your billing address where you can find your account number.Is that fine for you David?
     David xxxx: The BT website brought me here????? -
    "Chat to an advisor: You can chat to one of our advisors who will let you know your account number online." https://www.bt.com/appsyouraccount/secure/ebilling​.do# 
     Vaseem : I am sorry David, according to BT policy we will not be able to give the account number, if you want me to arrange a copy I will do for you David.
     David xxxx: Can you please explain why the BT website says you can?
     David xxxx: "You can chat to one of our advisors who will let you know your account number online."
     Vaseem : I am really sorry for that David on Behalf of BT. If you want me to help with your order I will do for you.
     David xxxx: Please can you answer my original question: when is my appointment to fit my broadband?
     David xxxx: ?????
     Vaseem : Let me check please?
     Vaseem : I have checked your order details and can confirm that engineer's visit will be on 18/11/11.
     David xxxx: is there a time?
     Vaseem : Yes David, it will be at 8:00AM.
     David xxxx: well thanks Vaseem. You now need to go tell your manager that your website is leading people to you to get their account number which is directly contradicting your 'BT Policy'
     Vaseem : I agree with you David, this is completely misleading as we on chat are strictly not authorised to provide account numbers. We are allowed to provide the account number only via a method of sending you a copy bill therefore the link guides you to us.
     Vaseem : I have let my manager know about this and we will write to the bt.com team to get this fixed for you.
    To top it off I cant even find where to complain by email. I have to either phone or write a letter. 
    THANK YOU BT - lets see how long this post stays online for - this will probably be ignored anyway.
    Oh and here's a screen shot incase you NEED proof this actually happened.

  • Anyone still up? I just purchased from the itunes store for the first time, and don't know how to get them downloaded to my ipod.

    Sigh.....really late and I want to go to sleep, but I just purchased some Itunes online for the first time, and I don't know how to download them to my ipod. I've never done it before, and it shouldn't be rocket science, but I can't find anything that tells me where to go to download my songs. It said something about check purchases, but I can't even find that screen.  I connected my ipod to the computer, and now it says CONNECTED...EJECT BEFORE DISCONNECTING. My BF set up the acct when he bought my ipod as a gift, and as I bought these songs for a special weekend I have planned I can't ask him how to do it.  HELP!  For some reason the password I always use is not recognized for my account... and since I can't get anyone from itunes without a proper log-in I'm at the mercy of all of you more versed in tech and itunes than I.  Is anyone still up that can help me out?

    It should keep asking for the password, because it's trying to check for purchases... As soon as you login, it will see you have pending downloads and create the downloads section on the left below Purchases under the Store section. Then it will start the music downloads there, as they will be listed one below the other.
    You could just try to check your account balance or view your account and that will trigger a password request too. You can just click on that and say that now iTunes keeps asking for the password and ask him to help you with that. Trick would be to interrupt him so that he carries on with another task after, so he doesn't notice the download. Or you carry on with email or browsing which you were "busy" with when iTunes interrupted you for the password (stupid iTunes)

  • Give me some ideas for the project.

    Hi,folks
    I am not familiar with programming in web services. Now i have a project related to web services need to finish. I want to someone give me some ideas for the project. how can i implement the access control services. is there anyone can give me some related links for me to learn.
    Project Title: Implementing an access control service
    Project Description:
    Web services are emerging as a new approach to system construction and will make a major impact on the engineering of future business systems. They will allow a move from enterprise to inter-enterprise computing. However, with inter-enterprise computing, there are major problems with providing access to shared data, given that enterprises will not wish to share all data with partners.
    This project aims to investigate this problem by developing a prototype of an access control service that will help decide whether or not data access should be permitted. In essence, companies will outsource their access control to this service and so will not need to maintain their own access control lists for a potentially rapidly changing set of users.
    Suggested Platform: Windows or Linux
    Suggested Languages & Tools: Java

    Well, the approach I've come accross is a central server which is typically accessed indirectly from the web servers (e.g. through SOAP protocol or RMI).
    The remote server sends a user id and a password (or more likely a digest of the password), and receives a session token, basically just a random string of characters which is checked with the central server each time a secure transaction is attempted. The token will be stored in a session object, or perhaps directly in a cookie or in the URLs.
    Active session tokens are stored on the central server for comparison. This means the password doesn't have to be retained in the server.
    It's possible for the session token to be transfered if the user switches from one site to another on the same authentication server.
    Sun distributes one of these beasties, by the way, so you could take a look at their product specs.

  • For some reason i have two accounts and I want to cancel one of them. they are yearly contracts but i dont want to pay double for the same product. How can I cancel one account?

    for some reason i have two accounts and I want to cancel one of them. they are yearly contracts but i dont want to pay double for the same product. How can I cancel one account?

    Is it possible that you are using the same password for the old O2 Study and newer O2 Apple Base Station networks?
    If so, Keychain Access is storing the old information about the old network and may be associating it with your AirPort Extreme settings based on the BSSID that William has mentioned.
    If that's the case, open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access and look for a listing with the old network name. Delete this entry. You may need to power down both the computer and the AirPort Extreme and restart them.

    For the last few weeks, the iTunes store has been displayed with empty graphic rectangles (with a blue box containing a white question mark centered in the rectangles), bits of text, and some buttons. The page extends quite a ways, including what I assume would be all the links to all the music...
    If all you are trying to do is buy music, you can easily buy MP3s at any online music download store (e.g. amazon.com) and add them to your iTunes library.

    I cant believe this little comment has been so helpful!
    But yes it is:
    I explain, despite my efforts to find, googled it, forums, faqs, etc...
    no where it mentionned the manifest.fm file is... INSIDE the .jar!
    Your comment "a zip" made me attempt to open it with winrar, and I found a manifest.fm file inside!
    So far I was editing the one at the "source" of my project and rebuilding it with netbeans.
    I am going to try that now.
    Actually.... :( no its mentionning my main class!

  • I'm going on vacation and would like to have some movies rented for the flight. I won't have wifi so can i download rented movies?

    I'm going on vacation and would like to have some movies rented for the flight. I won't have wifi so can i download rented movies?

    Prior to going you can rent and download them on your iPad via its iTunes store app, or rent and download them on your computer's iTunes and connect and your iPad and move them to it - they will go in the iPad's Videos app.
    Some people have posted that they need to start playing rentals whilst they still have internet connection, so you may want to watch a few seconds prior to going offline - you have 24 hours if you are in the US, 48 hours elsewhere, after starting to watch a rental before it expires.

Maybe you are looking for
