JSON parse array of data

Summary The provided code snippet attempts to parse a JSON array containing objects with varying structures and walk through the elements to extract specific fields. The root cause of the failure lies in a fundamental misunderstanding of Perl’s reference syntax and the structure of the parsed JSON data. Specifically, the attempt foreach ( $data->[] ) … Read more

Python Tuple Importance?

Summary A developer questioned the practical importance of Python tuples, noting that elements can be added by converting to a list and back to a tuple. The core issue is a misunderstanding of immutability and its role in data integrity. Tuples are not meant to be mutated; they are used to ensure data remains constant. … Read more

“flutter run” starts the app but no logs / hot reload / debug output anymore

Summary An Honor device connected via USB debugging suddenly stopped providing log output and hot reload functionality after a successful flutter run. The Gradle build and APK installation completed, but the observatory/VM service connection failed to establish silently. This broke log streaming, stdin command processing (hot reload/restart), and debugging. The root cause was likely a … Read more

IfromFile add .net8 mvc service layer

Summary The issue at hand is caused by a combination of factors, including incorrect service naming, configuration issues, and inadequate error handling. The FromService class, which should be named FileService, implements the IFromService interface, leading to Dependency Injection errors. Furthermore, the upload logic lacks a crucial check to ensure the target directory exists before creating … Read more

Openlayers Static image

Summary A client required a static world map image (8192×5461) to display without external tile servers. After implementing the OpenLayers Static source with a custom geographic projection (-180, -90, 180, 90), the plotted coordinates were significantly incorrect (e.g., Tokyo appears in the wrong location). The root cause was a coordinate reference system (CRS) mismatch between … Read more

How to calculate magic constants for divide-by-multiply for constant modulo operation

Summary The “divide by multiply” optimization is a technique used by compilers like clang to perform modulo operations more efficiently. This technique involves using a magic constant to multiply the dividend, resulting in a value that can be compared to another constant to determine the remainder. The goal is to calculate these magic constants reliably … Read more
