Do it yourself

Anyway to identify and replicate existing grass?

Leave a comment

By knpnj

Hi All,
We removed a pool from our backyard last year, and the people who filled it up did a terrible job. They did not put a good topsoil and the area (about 20’x45′) did not grow back nicely with new grass.

So this year, we dug it up again. We just finished tilling and removing the top from the area that was the pool. We have cleared about 2″ all around and will get good quality top soil put in.
However, with the past experience we also noticed that the old/existing grass in the backyard did not match up with the new grass we put in. Hence the lawn/landscape did not “merge” nicely and the difference between the grass really stood out.

So the question is, can we even figure out what type of grass is it that exits and somehow put in the same grass over the new area to make a consistent lawn? Would this be even possible?
The old grass is really nice and resilient to saythe least. It survived over 3 yrs of neglect before we moved in a couple yrs ago and there is nary a bad spot, patch or weed in it. Which makes us want to replicate it even more 🙂
Any advice, ideas and help most welcome!
TIA.

Linux

Remote nodes – login and find number of processes

Leave a comment

By sunpraveen

Hello all,

This is my requirement:

1. I have 6 VMs running Apache (for Oracle EBS) as Linux user oracle.

2. From a central server (VM), I need to login to all the 6 VMs as oracle user (I have already set up ssh equivalence, so it is password less authentication).

3. Find the number of processes running as oracle user on each VM and if less than 20, something is wrong and the same information is written to a log file on the central server.

4. If it is more than 20 processes, then everything is fine.

5. My question or trouble is: How do I know that collectively, Apache is running fine for this application (Oracle EBS)?

TIA,

Regards,

Praveen

Have a Bunn coffee make, full of lime. Tried white vinegar, no luck. This is a later model. On the old models you could take apart and soak with vinegar, like new. Now they are sealed with some kind of caulk. Can,t get it apart. Tried heat, caulk would not release. Any ideas how to get the top off? TIA jps

Print one's place for 1 to N times, ksh Perl whatever?

Leave a comment

By KmJohnson

Hello all,
I would like to create a for loop or whatever is quick that will print the one’s place of a number for 1-N times
say for example a printed page formatting is 132 characters wide,
I would like a single line

123456789012345678901234567890… …012

That is 132 characters long. I am putting this in a simple print test program and want the recipient to see at a glance that the printing is not getting truncated for any reason.

I see in a similar thread a slick way to print a single character N times

In these below cases if one * was missing (due to printer/lp miss configuration) in a string of 132 your eye could miss it easily.. TIA. –KJ

nawk ‘BEGIN{$1000=OFS=”*”;print}’ < /dev/null
perl -le ‘print “*” x 1000’
printf “%01000d”|tr “0” “*”

A terminal controlling a terminal…

Leave a comment

By wisecracker

Hi all…

Consider me a dummy here…

I do not want any code or for anyone to show me how to do it at this time, but here is the question:-

I have had this brainstorm to be able to control the AudioScope.sh program in the “Shell Scripting And Programming” forum…

Is it possible, by piping say, for me to be able control the AudioScope in its termianl from a separate terminal in REAL TIME using the INKEY$ idea to change parameters whilst it is scanning?

This would give me parallel control instead of sequential serial control.

I do not mean like inputting data on the second terminal and sending it, but instead, terminal one polling the second terminal say after each plot and having the ability to change TB and SHIFT for example whilst in the same scan…

I hope this makes sense…

Again just a yes or no and something of what to type into Google say…

TIA…

TriQuint Expands Support of Optical Markets with New Transimpedance Amplifier Family

Meet TriQuint at OFC/NFOEC in Anaheim, CA, March 19-21, Booth 2127

ANAHEIM, Calif. & RICHARDSON, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)– TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. (NAS: TQNT) , a leading RF products manufacturer and foundry services provider, has expanded its optical infrastructure portfolio with five new transimpedance amplifiers (TIA), enabling the company to now serve both transmit and receive portions of high performance optical networks. The new product family complements TriQuint’s industry-leading modulator driver portfolio for 10, 40, 100 Gb/s and next-generation 200G/400G systems.

TriQuint’s new TIAs offer performance benefits tailored to key design requirements that support 40G, 100G and emerging optical systems. TriQuint’s new products are part of a recent technology acquisition from Micram Microelectronic GmbH.

“This new amplifier family perfectly complements our optical modulator drivers. We’re sampling next-generation products and receiving positive feedback from numerous customers,” said James L. Klein, TriQuint Vice President and General Manager for Infrastructure and Defense Products. “Our new TIA family serves today’s fastest networks as well as the higher modulation needs of future optical broadband systems.”

The continual worldwide growth in smartphone and tablet data traffic as well as other broadband mobile devices is driving global network capacity expansion. Optical networks remain the most economical means for long-distance, high-speed data transfers across wired and mobile device networks. Infonetics Research commented recently that the global optical market is expected to grow in 2013, with expansion primarily in North America, China, Europe and the Middle East.

“Our conversations with equipment providers continue to trend positive, particularly in North America where 100G spending is about to ramp…Meanwhile, there are positive rumbles in the EMEA region; preliminary results show that 2013 will be a huge year for 100G in China; China is about half of the global 40G WDM market,” said Infonetics Principal Optical Analyst, Andrew Schmitt, in a February 2013 report.

TriQuint’s first TIA release includes five new silicon germanium (SiGe) amplifiers for use in optical networks ranging from very-short-reach to metro- and long-haul. The products are announced in conjunction with the OFC/NFOEC conference and exposition in Anaheim, CA (March 19-21) and complement TriQuint’s wide selection of surface-mount optical modulator drivers. See our optical experts in Booth 2127, or contact TriQuint to arrange a meeting.

By wisecracker

(Consider me stupid here.)

I am new to this technique, but, I notice that my banking bits keep increasing by the day.

After some further research on here I understand why they are used… ;o)

What I don’t understand is why mine are increasing by the day…

Can someone either point me to a write up as to why on here, or explain, because AFAIAC I have done nothing special to earn these bit points…

There are 2 parts:
1) Take the XML statement and parse out. I have that with a sed script
sed -n ‘//,/XML>/p’ (yes, I know the / is missing)
2) Take the number from the previous line to the and put it in the XML portion.

The final output would be:
