WangLu's Notes

Emscripten is a C/C++ -> LLVM -> JavaScript compiler. It's useful and interesting, but one of its biggest limitations is about the sync/async model: JavaScript is single-threaded event-driven languages, therefore you cannot do a sleep() in the hope of receiving and processing extra events. Demo First of all, please enjoy this demo , on which I really spent some time. tl;dr Motivation: to make `sleep` and other similar functions actually work in our Runtime, without lots of labor work porting the C/C++ code I actually made it worked  `sync->async` is doable and I think it's not too hard - there are already implementations for JS I think this is a feature that cannot be supported by merely an external library Does it fit emscripten? Or is it possible to write a plugin for emscripten? Demo explained(?) The demo is basically a stop-time animation: //draw something //wait for some while //draw something else //wait... You can verify this

png优化工具：pngnq（有损）和 pngcrush（无损） ubuntu gnome 13.10的input source里找不到输入法：手动修改dconf键值 org.gnome.desktop.input-sources.sources ，在数组里添加 ('ibus','sunpinyin') 和 ('ibus', 'anthy') 。 但是mozc似乎不行，原因不明。观望。 mozc在dconf里要打('ibus', 'mozc-jp')

一般来说遇到标题所述问题我马上会想到smbfs，不过好久不用，最近发现smbfs已经没有了，取而代之的是cifs，于是命令大约是 sudo mount -t cifs //hostname//folder /localfolder -o user=username 不过总是报 Input/ouput error google了一阵，有的说加上 sec=ntlm 有的说加 iocharset=utf8 ，不过都没用。其中加了后者还会出 Can not access a needed shared library 的错误。根据 http://wiki.openwrt.org/doc/howto/cifs.client    和 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/1067681 ， 安装了linux-image-extra-***的包以后才可以，但是mount还是不行。（我的linux是在虚拟器，装的最小内核linux-virtual） 于是尝试了一下smbclient，也是报错： tree connect failed: NT_STATUS_INSUFF_SERVER_RESOURCES 根据 http://klebom.net/melazy/tricks/ 查到是IRPStackSize过小的问题， 我在windows也确实查到了事件： Log Name: System Source: srv Date: 2013-10-20 14:08:29 Event ID: 2011 Task Category: None Level: Error Keywords: Classic User: N/A Computer: *** Description: The server's configuration parameter "irpstacksize" is too small for the server to use a local device. Please increase the value of this parameter.

I need to install Ubuntu 13.10 into an old Linux machine. The BIOS has been locked such that I cannot boot from CD or USB drives. The machine has grub 0.97 and a pretty old CentOS installed on it, which I've got the root access, so I decided to try to load the ubuntu iso file with it. Based on https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Installation/FromLinux I tried to enter the grub commands there, but then it failed with error like this: stdin: error 0 /init: line 7: can't open /dev/sr0: No medium found After spending hours in searching and trying, I found this url: http://askubuntu.com/questions/47076/usb-boot-problems which solved the problem for me. The full commands I used are: root (hd1,0) kernel /casper/vmlinuz.efi boot=casper live-media-path=/casper/ ignore_uuid initrd /casper/initrd.lz This link http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/karmic/man7/casper.7.html describes the parameters for casper

For windows 8, one option to disable driver signature enforcement is through "advanced startup settings", which lists a few options after a restart, and you can press f7 or 7 to disable it. However for my surface pro, it refused to recognize my keyboard, no matter it is a bluebooth keyboard, a usb wireless keyboard or a normal usb keyboard. I guess a touch/type cover might work, but I don't have one. Another option is to enable test mode (bcdedit -set testsigning on), before which you should also disabl

一直纠结是用中文写还是英文写还是都写，随心情好了。 Windows 8 FileHistory 不能指定外置硬盘 参考： http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-hardware/windows-8-file-history-does-not-recognize-my/361a527b-d35b-4753-b4a6-3ccff738ff62?page=2 - 确定该硬盘没有被加入任何library - 删除 C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\File History 给我妹家里配无线路由，主要是希望用一个小路由增强一个大路由（外接adsl）的信号 一开始给小路由设的repeater模式，但是不太好使，于是用ap模式+开启wds，然后小路由自动禁用了dhcp。这时在小路由的信号内手动设置ip和dns可以上网。最后把小路由dhcp打开，然后把两个路由分配的ip段分开就可以了。 两个路由的ssid，信道和加密方式都应该相同。 按理说WDS应该可以的，但是似乎小路由不太行。 利用PuttyGen声称公钥然后让服务器信任 参考： http://www.dailyiteration.com/howto-passwordless-ssh-authentication-with-putty/ 主要是需要用sshkeygen -i -f 转一下格式 Gmail里拖拽图片附件，如果拖到正文，就会添加成inline image；如果拖到下方工具栏上，就会添加成附件 参考： http://lifehacker.com/add-images-as-attachments-via-drag-and-drop-in-gmail-561870021

'tc' and 'netem' allow you to simulate some network environments http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/netem#Delay_distribution For example, I can delay every packet for 1s, such that in some case I can cheat in games.

Is it a bug of IE?

使用tc + netem可以模拟一些网络环境 http://www.linuxfoundation.org/collaborate/workgroups/networking/netem#Delay_distribution 比如我可以让每个包都延迟1秒，某些情况下玩游戏还可以作弊 Google Chrome说Profile无法正确打开： 把配置目录里的'Web Data'目录干掉 http://www.fourleaftechnology.com/index.php/General/google-chrome-profile-could-not-be-opened-correctly-error.html 用gs去除PDF的密码： http://www.cyberciti.biz/faq/removing-password-from-pdf-on-linux/ gs -q -dNOPAUSE -dBATCH -sDEVICE=pdfwrite -sOutputFile=unencrypted.pdf -c .setpdfwrite -f encrypted.pdf IE10下如果TTF字体的空格宽度是0，就会无视word-spacing的css规则，不知道是不是IE的bug。

To reset all shortcut definitions in evince, run rm ~/.config/evince/accels GCC would complain if you define a variable without actually using it. To silience it, use (void)var; DNS is not working in VirtualBox: Run VBoxManage modifyvm "VM name" --natdnshostresolver1 on Ref   A useful link talking about ravlue reference in C++11 http://thbecker.net/articles/rvalue_references/section_01.html   To clear disk cache in Linux: Run sudo sh -c 'echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' Ref  "screen-256color not found": Run infocmp xterm-256color > screen-256color.ti on a machine without this error, copy the file to the target machine and then run tic screen-256color.ti Ref Just switch to fcitx from ibus.

之前evince的快捷键乱套了，使用 rm ~/.config/evince/accels 复位 定义了变量var又不用的话，gcc会报warning"unused variable"，解法是 (void)var; VirtualBox中DNS不工作：运行 VBoxManage modifyvm "VM name" --natdnshostresolver1 on Ref   一个讲c++11右值引用的link： http://thbecker.net/articles/rvalue_references/section_01.html   Linux清除disk cache: sudo sh -c 'echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches' Ref  遇到错误screen-256color not found需要支持新的终端类型：找一台支持screen-256color的机器执行 infocmp xterm-256color > screen-256color.ti 把文件拷贝到目标机器后执行 tic screen-256color.ti Ref  最近从ibus换到了fcitx，起初是由于sogou发布了，不过后来还是卸掉了。anran主题不错。fcitx在firefox中光标跟随有点问题，按官方wiki说法打开preedit后就没事了。  最近在vim里折腾youcompleteme这个补全插件，挺好用。顺便也装了vundle来管理插件，很不错  vim更新.vimrc后想直接应用，执行 so %

It's been 6 years since the start of this blog, I still remember that soul-stirring accident which made me decide to start blogging.

这个blog写了6年了，还依稀记得当初促使我开始写blog的 那次事故 ，那次真的是惊心动魄。

1. Javascript 图表库比较 Ext JS 各种模型比较折腾，画出来还不错。 flot，配合jQuery写着比较顺手，但是功能不够多，内置符号只有圆圈，加个插件发现图例中不能显示符号。logscale还有坐标的分点都要自己实现。。。 2.gnuplot编译时报错，libpng冲突 http://harvey.nu/compiling_gnuplot_on_mac_os_x_libpng_conflict.html 3.Excel中方向键不工作 按一下ScrollLock试试 http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~edlee/microsoft_excep_tip_1.html 4.Linux播放白噪音 http://dirk.net/2009/07/14/white-noise-generator-for-linux/ install sox play -n synth 60:00 whitenoise 1. A few JS libraries for plotting Ext JS, with rather complicated data models, but worthy. Produced figures look good. flot, a smooth coding experience with jQuery, but also lack of features. E.g. by default the only available symbol is circle. There are plugins available for extra symbols, but only in legend...Also I have to specify all the ticks... 2. libpng confliction when compiling gnuplot. http://harvey.nu/compiling_gnuplot_on_mac_os_x_libpng_conflict.html 3.
