Bobby Fishcer jugando tenis de mesa

Estas fotos de Bobby Fishcer jugando ping-pong son de culto:

Imagenes del documental de HBO: Bobby Fischer Against the World (2011):

Documental de uno de los mas grandes jugadores de ajedrez del mundo, Bobby Fischer. Muestra de forma agil y entretenida la vida inicial de este genio que de forma autodidactitca aprendio y supero las tecnicas de la epoca ajedrecistica.

Entrevistas a los principales actores del gran bullado campeonato del mundo de 1972 contra Spassky. Filmaciones de la epoca y como algo tan lento pudo tomar tanta atencion, que claro que por el tema de la guerra fria, hizo un impacto global.

Despues de llegar a una cuspide insuperable se ve la caid libre de este gran jugador que años despues pudimos ver por enfermedades mentales no tratadas cayo en un decadencia sin retorno. Entrega una triste y real vision de lo que sucedio con él y quizas deja un espacio al libre albedrio para imaginar si hubiese jugado contra Karpov y seguido una vida mas racional.
Curioso detalles es la locura de varios grandes jugadores mencionados en el filme... será un patrón o mera coincidencia ?

Para cuaquier persona que haya jugado a algun nivel o respete este deporte-ciencia, es una manera fresca y dinamica de ver esta biografia del mas grande los los jugadores norteamericanos.

Oreilly Second Edition of Regular Expressions Cookbook

I was reading the free sampler of this new edition and paid my attention the reference to Recipe 6.7:

So I tested it, but it doesn't work as expected:

String regexp = "(?:429496729[0-5]|42949672[0-8][0-9]|4294967[01][0-9]{2}|429496[0-6]?[0-9]{3}|42949[0-5][0-9]{4}|4294[0-8][0-9]{5}|429[0-3][0-9]{6}|42[0-8]?[0-9]{7}|4[01][0-9]{8}|3[0-9]{9}|2[2-9][0-9]{8}|21[5-9][0-9]{7}|214[89]?[0-9]{6}|2147[5-9][0-9]{5}|214749[0-9]{4}|214748[4-9][0-9]{3}|2147483?[7-9][0-9]{2}|21474836[5-9][0-9]|214748364[89])"; 

String text = "214748364 8 2147483648 2147483650 4294967295";

I get the following results:

214748364
214748364
214748365
4294967295

is this a typo in the book or maybe RegexMagic is wrong.

How to retrieve XML sent into SOAP Payload

Using WebLogic Server 10.3.5 , we need a way to retrieve XML payload that is not sent between CDATA:

<foo>
<bar>
foobar
</bar>
</foo>

To implement the solution, please use the following snippet code to achieve the requirement:

To achieve this, we use JAX-RPC and following webservice endpoint:
in the method nodeToString() we are getting the XML as String:

@WebMethod()

public String sayHello(javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement message) {

System.out.println("**************************ENDPOINT**************************************************");

System.out.println("sayHello:" + message.toString());

System.out.println("sayHello:" + message.getClass());



printNodeToConsole(message);

String xml_str = nodeToString(message);



System.out.println("****************************XML**********************");

System.out.println(xml_str);

System.out.println("****************************XML**********************");



return "Here is the message: '" + message + "'";

}





private String nodeToString(Node node) {

StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();

try {

System.out.println("Start string conversion...");

Transformer t = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();

t.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.OMIT_XML_DECLARATION, "yes");

t.transform(new DOMSource(node), new StreamResult(sw));

} catch (TransformerException te) {

System.out.println("nodeToString Transformer Exception");

}

System.out.println("end string conversion...");

return sw.toString();

}

There is a workaround escaping the XML with CDATA or XML entities < >
but the solution would be to use javax.xml.soap.SOAPElement as parameter of the webservice endpoint

Numbers with Thousand Separators

Estos son post antiguos que tengo en otro blog, creo que son interesantes de tenerlos aca ta,bien:

Colossus Chess 4.0 (a8) v/s GNU Chess

Por fin pude lograr hacer jugar (a través del protocolo UCI) a Colossus Chess 4.0 y GNU Chess para poder generar un nivel al muy buen producto de 8 bits Colossus Chess que era el mejor de la época.

Colossus hizo una buena presentación considerando los 8 bits y 1.67mhz del atari contra:

Hardware: Mobile AMD Sempron™ Processor 3000+ 1794 MHz with 1.152 MB Memory

Bueno el juego lo pueden ver a continuación (para algún tipo de análisis para jugadores) y el archivo PGN.

Colossus Tournament

Finally I made to play both Colossus Chess (3 & 4) against each other, where the last one won without any doubt 9.5 - 0.5

CC3 hardly got a the 4th game ending in a draw. Here it's the tournament in PGN to watch it in some chess software such as Arena.

Finalmente hice jugar a los Colossus Chess 3 y 4, donde el último ganó sin apelación 9,5 - 0,5

CC3 Apenas logró una tabla en el cuarto juego. Aquí les dejo el archivo del torneo en PGN para poder visualizarlo en algún software como Arena.

ADVAN COMPILER BASIC
http://www.atarimagazines.com/v4n12/Compiler.html
Advan BASIC is filled with shortcuts like this. By the way, it ran my version of the Sieve of Eratosthenes in 13.8 seconds. The MMG compiler took 9 seconds, BASIC XL took 67 seconds and Atari BASIC hasn't finished yet. If that isn't fast enough, you can rewrite key routines in assembly language from within BASIC. Advan BASIC recognizes assembler mnemonics almost as if they were BASIC keywords. Not only is this great for people who know assembly language, but it can be a teriffic learning environment too.

ADVAN OPTIMIZER
http://www.atarimagazines.com/v6n2/BASICBonanza.html
Advan BASIC was already pretty fast. Now it's the fastest BASIC in Atari history. In our Sieve Benchmark, the Advan Optimizing Compiler is about four times faster than the MMG Compiler, six times faster than regular Advan, 20 times faster than compiled Turbo-BASIC XL and 120 times faster than uncompiled Atari BASIC. In fact, it's more than half the speed of ACTION!- that's getting real close to pure assembly language.
