Would you use it to play an instrument?

I'll be abroad for a year and I don't have any speaker to play my music. But in adittion I have a keyboard and I was wondering if it would sound nice to practice at home, to play with another instrument, for example, a guitar, or to eventually play in the street.
What do you think? Is the quality of the iPod Hi-Fi acceptable to play a keyboard for that purposes?
Thanks!

What sequence setting would you use to edit 1280 x1080 DVCProHD (P2) and 1920 x 1080 AVCHD (Sony) in FCP. Experiencing Quality and rendering issues.

What sequence setting would you use to edit both 1280 x1080 DVCProHD (P2) and 1920 x 1080 AVCHD (Sony) in a single timeline in FCP. I'm experiencing quality and rendering issues. I've tried numerous settings but can't seem to figure this one out. Thanks for your assistance.

Although you can combine the avchd 1920x1080 material with prores 1920x1080 in the same timeline, you might land up saving time just converting everything to 1920x1080 prores 422. You'd probably reduce the amount of rendering while you're working and exporting when you're done by a great deal. This workflow will require much more drive space.

What camera raw default settings would you use for the Canon 5D Mark 3. I have PS CS6. Thank you.

What camera raw default settings would you use for the Canon 5D Mark 3. I have PS CS6. Thank you.

Really, this is a question you should be asking yourself...
What do you shoot? Makes a difference...
Typical ISO that you shoot? Makes a difference...
Shooting for clients or yourself? Makes a difference...
Look, there is no magic bullet...the ACR/LR "Default" should only be changed for those adjustments you make 70-90% of the time and sould not be confused with image by image adjustments...
So, as asked, your question can not really be answered other than to say, use a default that suits you.

Would you use Macbook 13" as a DAW?

Would you use Logic on these new Macbooks? May be with a bigger monitor? It seems it's faster than the lower end Macbook pro (1.83).

Hey swan,
I don't know the specs, but usually "pro" machines have faster bus speeds than "consumer" machines. That makes the transfer of data faster in the "pro" machines. So, if you have two machines, one pro and one consumer, next to each other, with the same processor speed and you were to run, lets say Logic on both, doing exactly the same thing, the pro machine should be faster.
That's not to say that the Macbook isn't good enough to run Logic. I can't imagine them being slower than the last generation of Powerbook.

What would you use to clean a USB female connector on a TP X200?

I accidentally spilled some thick sugary drink in there which dried up. What would you use to make it usable again?Thanks.

Try a cotton swab dipped in isopropyl alcohol. Make sure to remove the power supply and battery and have plenty of swabs on hand. Don't soak the connector

What kind of printer would you use to print on a lorry?

Hi,
One of my client sells items from the lorry, so he wants his drivers to print invoices on the way. My question is what kind of printer would you use to print on a lorry? Any idea, experience?
Thx in advance,
Laci

Hi Laci,
There are quite a few mobile printers, for example HP does a range of battery powered Officejet printers which you could use on the go. For instance, check this out:

What function would you use instead of "IF" when referencing durations from a pop-up menu. Ie; if c4 equals 1h enter 280, if c4 equals 30m enter 160, etc. IF works fine if c4 is formatted as text but returns 0 when formatted as pop-up.

What function similar to IF would one use when the reference cell is a pop-up menu of items in duration format?
Example: if C4 equals 1h enter 280, if C4 equals 30m enter 160, etc
i can get it to work fine if I format the cell to text but I not only need it pop-up, I also need it to be written in duration format because it's used as duration in other functions.
thank you for your help in advance
Christina

Hi Christina,
A screenshot is always helpful.
C4 is your popup? You want to chose a duration there and have 280 or 160 show up somewhere else? Are they the results of a mathmatical formula or do you want a lookup table to show them?
I suspect something else is going on in your table. I have no trouble having a popup recognized as a duration:
The formula in C2 =DUR2MINUTES(B2) displaying "60" as expected. Note that "60" is not a duration. If I want C2 to be a duration I need the formula to read:
=DUR2MINUTES(B2)&"m".
I hope this helps, if not, post a screenshot including relevant formulas.

How would you use Aperture 3 Labels & Flags in your workflow?

Now that A3 has the ability to use Labels & Flags, I'm trying to incorporate their use into my workflow but am struggling to find the most effective way.
I've used the star rating for selections & refining the selections. In A2 I used keywords on images to indicate actions on the images, however I never thought this was an elegant solution because unless I forget to remove them they stay with the images as I export them. Fundamentally though I think of Keywords as attributes of the image, so using keywords to describe actions was always strange.
One thing I liked with this workflow though was I could place multiple "actions" on an image since there can be any number of keywords. In A3 you can only assign one labe at a time. So this made me think of how I'd use Labels.
So thus my question: how would you incorporate labels & flags into your existing workflows consisting of star ratings & keywords?

I've wanted flags for a long time just to be able to mark where I left off on a project. My inelegant solution has been to give a terrible picture 5 stars. Other uses are to quickly get back to certain images.
I don't yet know how exactly I'll use labels or what other uses I'll have for flags, but I'm happy to have the added versatility. Between flags and labels, I have 8 new ways to mark and filter images. (10 if you count no flag and no label.) Sure one can do a lot with stars, stacks and keywords, but now one can do more.

API design style I've never seen before - would you use it?

I was Googling for examples of a "Bean Comparator" and came across this strange API design I've never seen before (is it just me?). I'm curious if you have seen it before and what you think about it?
[http://cojen.sourceforge.net/apidocs/org/cojen/util/BeanComparator.html]
The basic problem is to create a Comparator that can sort on multiple fields within a given class.
First, a more traditional(?) API design might be something like:
Constructor Summary:
     BeanComparator(Class theClass);
Method Summary:
     addSortField(String fieldName, boolean isAscending, boolean isSortNullHigh);
     addSortField(String fieldName); // convenience method with default ascending and sortNullHigh
So you could create a BeanComparator that sorts on multiple fields by using:
BeanComparator bc = new BeanComparator(SomeClass.class);
bc.addSortField("field1");
bc.addSortField("field2", false, true);
bc.addSortField("field3", true, false);Finally, without listing the API, the equivalent code for the "strange API design" would be:
Comparator c = BeanComparator.forClass(SomeClass.class)
     .orderBy("field1")
     .orderBy("field2")
     .reverse();
     .orderBy("field3")
     .nullLow();So in this case:
a) there is no explicit "add" method to add a new sort field. The "orderBy" is an implicit add.
b) the reverse() and nullLow() methods only apply to the current orderBy field.
c) the creation of the class is "sequential" in nature as each method needs to be invoked in the proper order
In some ways this seems to simplify the API because you don't need lots of convenience methods or your don't need to use the full method and then restate the default values.
Also you can add new sort options to the API without affecting any existing methods.
What do you think of this type of API design?
Have you ever used it before?
Would you consider using this design and in what situations would you consider it?

What part is bothering you exactly? Its not that it bothers me, its just that it is "different" and I was wondering if it is an acceptable design of a class and when you would use it, since I don't think I've seen any examples in the JDK.
Usually the order of method invocation is not important. You can do:
component.setFont()
component.setBackground()or
component.setBackground()
component.setFont()However
orderBy()
orderBy()
reverse()is not the same as
orderBy()
reverse()
orderBy()So the API implies a "building" approach where you need to know you are building the components of the class in a certain order.
Again, its not bad, its just different (to me) so I was wondering if it is common and when you would use it.
The fact that the methods return the object itself...No, I've seen that pattern before and find it handy.
Your example (addSortField) also depends on the order in which the methods are called.Yes, but this is normal for most APIs. For example adding items to a Vector, or components to a panel.
In this case the orderBy() method implies a change of state because the next set of methods may or may not modify the state of the field being ordered.
Again, I said I thought that this potentialy does simplify the API, but I have not seen it used before.
I don't see the design as much of a problem. Me either.

Would you use scripts to take database out of archivelog mode?

Background: we do not use RMAN for this production database and we do cold backups each night.
I've been asked to take one of our databases out of archivelog mode for a few days and then to put it back into archivelog mode.
Being somewhat neurotic about these things - I've only ever done it manually - so that I can make sure nothing goes wrong and to check that there was a last successful cold backup prior to the switch.
However, management have asked that it be done automatically by scripts after the backup.
Whilst I can create a script that will do this - the question I'd like to ask the forum is - have you and would you?

I do not agree with taking any Oracle database out of archivelog mode and I do not approve of management's decision and have told them why and all the risks they run.
This is not a test database - it IS a production database and other users do make changes daily.
What I did not reveal until now is that I have also been asked to take this database out of archivelog mode for 5 days and suspend all cold back-ups for the whole server (with 3 other instances on the server - also impacted) - and have warned them accordingly.
However, management have been swayed by someone who feels they know better - who claims to be a qualified Oracle DBA - I'm OCP but seems to have little sway since this person has convinced management that my 6 years experience and qualification is less than his application experience in GIS.
They want to run an upload which will take around 5 days to do - I'm somewhat miffed that an upload can take that length of time and question whether a GIS system should need such an upload for such a length of time.
Let's no go into the problem with tablespaces and space within the tablespaces - the upload will fail because they do not understand that if the tablespace fills up - the upload will fail - but despite asking - I've been told that there is no problem - there will be a problem - since I refuse to allow autoextend on this database - because of the potential to run out of disk space.
I've explained until I'm blue in the face - never mind that even if the upload is successful - the cold backup tape won't be able to backup the data because it'll be potentially over the limit.
I've even warned of my past experience x 3 - when a RAID controller failed - literally died in front of my eyes - I just happened to be standing next to one of the servers talking to someone - and the whole server was lost - but because we had the archivelogs - and the previous day's backup - we got it up and running after Dell replaced the RAID controller - within 1 hour.
That's the joy of Oracle - nothing is lost other than the last archivelog - depending on the time you set the switch.
I love this system - it's so recoverable - it such a joy to work with.
But then when I get told to suspend cold backups and then at the same time suspend archivelog mode - I go mad.
Don't get me started - I've gone down the usual path of why hire an OCP when you won't listen to what I say, etc.
Management are demanding I switch it automatically out of archivelog mode etc.
I can do it - but my question is still - have you guys?
And why did you do it?
All I can say is that I hope that the server has a RAID contoller failure and finally they listen to me - the chances of that are minimal - so management are saying - do it or else.
Oh and by the way - the GIS team have asked for this to be bi-monthly - automated.
And have said that:
"You can not rollback or recover the loading process using the log files because it involves a far more complex operation that would most likely not be successful."
Nice phrase that to an OCP.
I welcome your comments - as I really am in a hole here.
Thanks.
