Trước Bình Minh Luôn Là Đêm Tối

This is a book telling about many stories of the book's author, Ta Minh Tuan. Each his story is not only a valuable lesson but also a heart-to-heart talk.

Think Big, Start Small, Move Fast

I accidentally attended a $2 meetup which was held by Hoithao.vn in 2013. It was the first time for me to see the author. At that time, he wanted the attendees to repeat many times a sentence "Think big, start small, move fast" (a mindset for entrepreneurs). It was really impressed to me. I've been following him on Facebook since 2013. This book was his recommendation.

Do It Anyway

Your success is defined by yourself. It is built by your habits. Habits are the things need time to tackle. To me, that somehow means JUST following your heart combining with your brain because you're the one who knows what you're doing. Believe in yourself and never betray your dream!

We Are One

The author said that "everything is connected". This is also the theory of Buddha. He believes the existence of Atlantis and its elimination is a lesson-learnt. In order to avoid the elimination of our world, we have to help rather than harm the others. His company called "YUP" (its pronunciation also means "help") is a school for training entrepreneurs which follows the philosophy: "bring values for the community".

Make simple music program with beep(freq, duration) with Pascal

Pascal is my first programing language when I have studied in high school. It was really exciting for me. :) The Pascal programming language was created by Niklaus Wirth in 1970. It was named after Blaise Pascal, a famous French Mathematician. It was made as a language to teach programming and to be reliable and efficient. Pascal has since become more than just an academic language and is now used commercially . I tried to make a simple music program by using Lazarus IDE on MS Window 7, 64-bit. It frustrated me a few times how difficulty to use Sound command to make a sound. Sound did not work on my compiler and my platform anymore. So far, I just could use beep(freq, duration) from window unit to implement my work. Here is my code. ;) program mysong; uses Windows, crt; const C: Integer = 512; { x = A * EXP(LN(2)/12)} C_: Integer = 542; D: Integer = 574; D_: Integer = 608; E: Integer = 644; F: Integer = 682; F_: Integer = 723; G: Integer = ...

Styling Sort Icons Using Font Awesome for Primefaces' Data Table

So far, Primefaces has used image sprites for displaying the sort icons. This leads to a problem if we want to make a different style for these icons; for example, I would make the icon "arrow up" more blurry at the first time the table loading because I want to highlight the icon "arrow down". I found a way that I can replace these icons with Font Awesome icons. We will use "CSS Pseudo-classes" to achieve it. The hardest thing here is that we should handle displaying icons in different cases. There is a case both "arrow up" and "arrow down" showing and other case is only one of these icons is shown. .ui-sortable-column-icon.ui-icon.ui-icon-carat-2-n-s { background-image: none; margin-left: 5px; font-size: 1.1666em; position: relative; } .ui-sortable-column-icon.ui-icon.ui-icon-carat-2-n-s:not(.ui-icon-triangle-1-s)::before { content: "\f106"; font-family: "FontAwesome"; position: ...

Daily Meetings - Coordinate and Communicate Every Day

Using daily meetings for frequent course corrections. However, you should keep the meeting short because time is burn rate . Though good collaboration doesn't guarantee a project's success, poor collaboration almost always guarantees a project's failure What benefits does the daily meeting bring to you? - Keeps inexperienced developers and experienced ones on-track. - Avoids reinventing the wheel. - Limits tumbleweed developers ' damage. - Leverages the entire team’s experience to solve problems quickly. - Improves team communication. - Helps every people have a big-picture point of view. Who are tumbleweed developers? We’ve all worked with a few tumbleweed developers. These developers lose direction and drift through their days. They wade through the random code and “improve” it, cleaning up method signatures, polishing algorithms, and reformatting brackets. Tumbleweed developers lack the discipline to finish any task you ask them to do and generally c...

The HelloWorld example of JSF 2.2 with Myfaces

I just did by myself create a very simple app "HelloWorld" of JSF 2.2 with a concrete implementation Myfaces that we can use it later on for our further JSF trying out. I attached the source code link at the end part. Just follow these steps below: 1. Create a Maven project in Eclipse (Kepler) with a simple Java web application archetype "maven-archetype-webapp". Maven should be the best choice for managing the dependencies , so far. JSF is a web framework that is the reason why I chose the mentioned archetype for my example. 2. Import dependencies for JSF implementation - Myfaces (v2.2.10) into file pom.xml . The following code that is easy to find from http://mvnrepository.com/ with key words "myfaces". <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.myfaces.core</groupId> <artifactId>myfaces-api</artifactId> <version>2.2.10</version> </dependency> <dependency> <groupId>org.apache.myfaces.core<...

What the heck is Meteor DDP?

I was using Meteor for my messenger project. I was so curious about the real time connection. I wanted to know how exactly this mechanism works. In this post, I will go through the DDP Specification, an overview of WebSocket, and a simple demo about how to subscribe a publication of Rocket.Chat (containing a DDP server) from an external webpage. At a glance, I knew that Meteor invented a protocol called DDP which uses for handling real time connection. So then, what is DDP? "DDP (Distributed Data Protocol) is the stateful WebSocket protocol that Meteor uses to communicate between the client and the server." [1] All right! Why does DDP matter? "DDP is a standard way to solve the biggest problem facing client-side JavaScript developers: querying a server-side database, sending the results down to the client, and then pushing changes to the client whenever anything changes in the database" . [2] In order to understand deeply the protocol, I decided ...
