Update Habra

Hello.

Today we have perhaps the most significant since the launch of the new Habr update: we finally redid almost everything that we did not like or just not really liked. Namely:

"Cap"
Old hat, tired, and in it a piece of navigation ("blogs" / "people" / "the company", etc.) caused some confusion, although it all used to. But now the whole navigation are collected in one place, the logo moved to the center, and the information in the unit of account became more austere, but more convenient form: for example, to find the remaining votes for the karma and comments do not need to wait for the viola at the "airship", which has now also become a part of history. Everything flows, everything changes.

Section: "Blogs"
This is the most my favorite new feature. From now on hundreds of blogs broken down into several categories and have convenient search. Adding new blogs we will include later. Around the same time its appearance will change and the profile of the blog, as well as the ranking of blogs: it will be calculated a bit differently now.

user Profile
Changes are more cosmetic. Removed arrows a vote for the karma in your profile, grouped actions such as "write a letter" and "add to friends" in the drop down menu, changed the output location of tweets.

Karma
No, karma didn't do anything, but as an experiment, placed next to the nickname by the arrow called "Yes, I want to put a plus in karma to this wonderful man for what he has written such a useful topic!" This was done in order to tweak the balance that is biased towards the cons because of some features of human psychology. Next to the review of this arrows will not be removed.

Miscellaneous
The rest of the changes are minor. In particular, changed the link styles in some places, slightly changed the appearance of the unit is "live", has become a little sleeker a pager, there is still some small changes that don't make sense to mention it.

And Yes, something special we decided to postpone for a while.

And again. I understand that many are accustomed to the past mind and innovations are considered slightly less terrible than the Apocalypse. And some do tend to think such changes are "the beginning of the end". Don't worry about it. It's just a habit: it will take six months and most of you will forget how you looked Habr in the summer of 2009. In addition, better or worse Habru does not the hat or the color of the links, and content.

PS: during the day may experience some bugs and other Satan-the process about which it is better to urgently inform us, and not in the comments. Thank you.

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...

Looking for books as you want

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...
