My interests are mainly in assembly programming (FASM).

Check some of my assembly projects:

Fresh IDE - Visual RAD IDE and framework for assembly programming. Self-compilable. Allows writing of portable assembly programs. Has embedded FASM compiler.

MiniMagAsm - Ultralight and fast CMS for small sites. Uses markdown-like markup language for article formatting. Portable for Windows and Linux (32 and 64 bit) web servers.

phWeb - lightweight and fast web server for Windows, Linux and KolibriOS. (work in progress)

comment Delay on keystroke when search as you type
@LarsH: In my answer above, I described algorithm, not using explicit time delays, that will always work in the most optimal way, depending on the user behavior and the system performance. (For what was voted down several times). But if someone wants to create not optimal programs, I can't stop him from doing so. :)

I can't remember some bio process that to depend on time delays in order to control things. There is always some feedback and event driven control. You can't make "adapting to the environment" using hard delays. Using time delays, depending on some conditions is not actually the same, because the delay is not used for control in this case, but the algorithm that compute the needed time. The time delay is just a mediator to some event driven control.

This rule is proved by all my experience in more than 15 years of work on different engineering and software problems. Although it does not means that one never should use time delays. Sometimes there is nothing else possible, so we are forced to use this only option. But even in these rare cases, it is nevertheless wrong. :)

comment What is the best way to represent the difficulty level in a children's game?
@Mervin: Every graphical image, used for UI icon is stereotype of some sort. Or you save your files on diskettes only?

Well, for example "Dexter's Laboratory" and "Phineas and Ferb" both movies uses such kind of stereotypes.

@MainMa: Well, my statement was based on my experience. I never met normal people that have problems with well structured data. These authors maybe talk about some pathology?

The hierarchical tree search structures are very wide spread in the RL as well. The human brain works by summarizing the objects and incorporating them into some hierarchy.

comment Origin of “big green button”?
@BartGijssens these are different things IMO. For example I like red cars and the red color in generally and don't think the red cars are dangerous or forbidden. But we are talking about engineering and ergonomics here - where red indicators and red buttons always have negative meaning. Regardless of the culture.

So, in Japan the traffic lights are red for "OK to pass"? Good to know. :P Maybe it was true in 15-th century, but not now and not here.
