Icons with the image of a dog Fido (16×16, 32×32, 48×48, 64×64)

a picture is worth of a hundred words, and, moreover, faster and having the impression.

As you know, the symbol, the mascot (mascot) Network FidoNet is a lop-eared dog sitting with a floppy disk that carefully holds in his mouth. The text (graphical), the image is found, for example, in FidoNews weekly "Fidonews", where looks like this:

 __
/ \
/|oo \
(_| /_)
_`@/_ \ _
| | \ \\
| (*) | \ )) 
______ |__U__| / \//
/ FIDO \ _ //|| _\ /
(________) (_/(_|(____/


It is also well known that Thomas Jennings, the Creator of the network, drew her logo by hand:

Me several years and I have always thought (I expounded it separately, Harborside) — the idea that this dog would be nice to make the icons (size 16×16, 32×32, 48×48, 64×64 pixels) to use and in the HTML <link rel="shortcut icon" the href="..."> and Windows and other graphical interfaces.

I am pleased to announce today, DarkWood has embodied this idea. I represent to your attention drawn to them the icons that with his consent will be distributed under a license Creative Commons Attribution 3.0:

    • the

    [64×64]
    • the
  • icon 64×64 (option 2):

Black-and-white pixels, sharp lines, tending toward a strict rectangular forms. As you can see, DarkWood painted roughly in the style that was characteristic of the contemporary FidoNet — operating system Apple Lisa, which became once one of the first examples of a graphical user interface. Here is the screenshot from Wikipedia for comparison:

Retro. Vintage. Exactly what was necessary.

Automatically create Liquibase migrations for PostgreSQL

Изображение
Working with Liquibase always brings confidence in the fact that the database objects are in the same condition in which you want it. It is this confidence and makes system migrations so popular databases. Today I want to tell you how to make using liquibase a bit easier. If you write a migration by hand, and your target database is PostgreSQL, then read this article, I am sure, the time spent on reading the article will be repaid with interest. I hope you already know how to work with Liquibase, so only two words describe how the system works. In order to make changes in the database, you need to create a migration file (changeset) that you need to specify in the file change log (changelog), after which the migration can be successfully applied to the target database. Undeniable and obvious benefit of this approach is the ability to rollback the changes. In my opinion, liquibase, there is only one drawback — the automatic rollback of changes only works only if the mi...

this last week or two, as curious users can watch Russian search service on books from Google . However, the General public before the official announcement from Google itself remains in the dark. Meanwhile, already there is something to see and something to tell. Besides, Google has not gone unnoticed in Yandex, which last week began offering users with Store cards and the output presented there books. What, in turn, did not fail to say publicly. Let's take a closer look at what is offered book lovers the giants of the search. Let's start with Google. The California company offers us their traditional approach. Typing in the familiar search bar the title of the book, we get... well, what we will get, greatly depends on many factors. Mostly while where a book has been published. If it's a popular publication in the United States (as an example from reference service — exposing the social ills of America's best-selling book " Fast Food Nation "), the...

Vkontakte sync with address book for iPhone. How it was done

Изображение
the Background application on androidphone when you install the application Vkontakte is possible to use it as a provider of contacts to synchronize the contacts from Facebook with contacts in your address book. In this case stretches the avatar, date of birth, address, phone numbers, etc. When I after prolonged use HTC Wildfire S rated and are so used to this that he wanted to find a similar to the iPhone. Not found, so we took it and made his own — Synchronizer VKontakte :) It was back in November of last year. The application was done fairly quickly — it uses quite a few functions of Vkontakte API and functionality with the address book of the iPhone. But when we started to deal with the automatic matching of contacts, it was fun. Compare head-on by name, last name and phone number was easy to do, easy, and worked through it quickly. But found only 20 percent of coincidences of the contacts from what is provider in Android. Of course, only direct hits do not sui...
