  1. I'd find more natural to find this in the MD5 palette.

  2. Hi guys How do you measure execution times/performance? I have 3 favourites. The Profiler (Profile Performance and Memory) Desktop Execution Trace toolkit (it give um timing accuracy very nice ) And a Timing Probe (see attached VIs) How do you do it? Timing Probe (Error).vi TimingProbe_Kernel.vi Cheers, Mike

  3. Anything that can be undone should not have a dialog, period. Get rid of it altogether. No checkboxes or ini settings.

  4. The price I quoted was high anyway. They are closer to $2K. Too cheap means more environmental impact. That's why I said that Toyota pays a bounty for them. They buy back even the dead ones. There is a sticker on every battery that says you can take it to any Toyota dealer for a $150.00 reward (source). You will not find many in the scrapyard. I don't know where the battery is but I will look for the sticker and try to verify this myself. In Oregon you hardly see any beverage bottles in the trash because of only a $.05 bounty. Also the warranty is 100K miles but the Prius is used by a lot of taxi companies and municipalities. Many of them have over 300,000 miles on the original battery. Of all the Prius' sold since 2000, 97% on the road. (source) Yes the battery is nasty stuff but it is just a NiCad. If you stuck all the cell phone batteries in a pile and all the Prius batteries in a pile I don't know which would be higher. Not that any of this means they don't have an impact. Maybe it is a step in the right direction but maybe not. The best way would be hydrogen fuel cells but they are not there yet. But at least things other than fossil fuel are being experimented with.

  5. Honestly, this is what makes the tool so appealing in the first place. If there's no overlays, using Windows Explorer is more advantageous to me. I hope they find some way to bring those back.

  6. When closing a project we get a "something has changed" that the detils seldom help reveal. I have given up trying to find the answers on occation. It should show us what has changed and the nauture of those changes. Ben

  7. Hello, I'm currently updating our probe add-on with really awesome probes designed by a colleague who need to deals with 1D or 2D array and string display. The goal is to obtain an easy and quick way to display and navigate array with the possibility to monitor more than 1 array element. In addition we have had the capability to string probes to change the display from normal to hex or code display. You can see a small demo on this video <object width="560" height="441"><param name="movie" value="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xktiqq?width=560"></param><param'>http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xktiqq?width=560"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://www.dailymotion.com/swf/video/xktiqq?width=560" width="560" height="441" wmode="transparent" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object><br /><a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xktiqq_newstringprobes" target="_blank">NewStringProbes</a> <i>par <a href="http://www.dailymotion.com/SAPHIR-Videocast" target="_blank">SAPHIR-Videocast</a></i>

  8. Immutable objects have this capability too. Build a class with creator method(s) and getters but don't provide any setters. Once the object (not class) is created it is immutable and can only be read. This also has the handy feature of being able to create as many objects as you want from a single class rather than having to create a separate vi for each piece of data or deal with dynamically launched vis.

  9. People don't hate Prius'... they hate Prius drivers. Or at least the Prius driver stereotype. (Every time I see a Prius I think of the South Park episode.) [Edit - 10 minutes after I posted this that very South Park episode started on Comedy Central. Coincidence?]
