Talk:Kemsing, Kent

message: As Kemsing redirects to here should this article not be at Kemsing, if we have no other articles does it really need to have Kent added on the end when we have no need to disambiguate? MilborneOne (talk) 15:14, 31 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Article Name

message: A section on health has been added an IP user 81.158.200.104 which is not really referenced and I removed as not notable to Kemsing but it has been added again by the IP, as the edit has been challenged it really needs to be discussed to show some evidence of relevance and notability to Kemsing if it is to be added again. The vauge reference is to a book on a study in the United States and South Africa, I would be interested to know what it actually says about the village as as far as I am aware it is not in the USA or South Africa.

Talk:Fragile binary interface problem

message: Although there is a note saying that fragile binary interface problem (FBI) is different from fragile base class problem (FBC), the article itself is mixing the two concepts, especially the first sentence. Even, in the "Solutions" section, it talks inappropriately about FBC. Part of the section should be moved to Fragile base class. The link given should also be moved to Fragile base class. 
FBI is not restricted to OO languages; it even has a longer history than OO languages, I think. Application binary interface describes the origin of FBI more appropriately, if I am right, and may be merged with this article.
----
Many authors refer to the syntactic fragile base class problem (which is what is described as the "fragile binary interface problem" on this page), and the semantic fragile base class problem (described on fragile base class problem).
--EngineerScotty 21:47, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

message: I agree with the first comment on this article. FBI and FBC, are for most purposes very similar and in this article they claim them to be very different but actually end up describing FBC for the FBI problem.
:Exactly, in the solutions section it says: "The best solution to the fragile base class problem is..." while in the lead section it says: "Note: this problem is often confused with the fragile base class problem, which is different, but related." For this reason I have tagged the article with Template:Contradict. --Kprateek88(Talk | Contribs) 13:38, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

message: OK, a suggestion which was carried over from some other :Category:Lists of software pages:
* Why not make all the links here wikilinks

* If someone thinks an item of software is notable enough to include here, they can create a wikipedia page for it
* If others disagree, they can vote for that page to be deleted
* Either way, it prevents these pages becoming a link farm, and means that those of us who maintain software list pages don't have to worry so much about deciding what goes in them.

Talk:Point plotting

message: I found this word in this article:
Each ship could be rotated clockwise or counterclockwise, fire reaction engines that eventually ran out of fuel, and fire missiles of finite range and finite number. The ship obeyed Newton's laws, accelerating and decelerating under the influence of its engines and of solar gravitation...i like bi cocks.
But one thing it didn't do was do gravity on the torpedoes, and so there were a LOT of sexy techniques that took advantage of that anomaly. Also, Scott didn't mention the wonderful Starfield. Peter Samson had added it to the original SPACEWAR.
It was a real star field, generated by some incredibly clever code so that it had real constellations in their real positions and they slowly drifted across the background.
Collision of two ships produced a vivid, graphically depicted explosion on screen, and both players were out, whereupon the game restarted.
One should probably note that for folks weaned on 'Star Wars' and Super-VGA PC games, it wasn't really 'vivid'. Kind of a little star-burst. Very nice,and crystal-clear what had happened. But nonetheless fairly simple.
The display was a point plotting, no memory scope. ALL displays were 'animated' since there was no display memory: if you wanted something to persist on the screen, you had to be in a loop constantly redisplaying it. The scope had a neat, special phosphor which displayed green when fired, but then faded for short while in yellow. This made the display flicker a lot less, and it also meant that things left 'trails' as they moved around. It made for some quite wonderful 2-D effects.
