1. The lounge is for the CodeProject community to discuss things of interest to the community, and as a place for the whole community to participate. It is, first and foremost, a respectful meeting and discussion area for those wishing to discuss the life of a Software developer.
The #1 rule is: Be respectful of others, of the site, and of the community as a whole.
2. Technical discussions are welcome, but if you need specific programming question answered please use Quick Answers[^], or to discussion your programming problem in depth use the programming forums[^]. We encourage technical discussion, but this is a general discussion forum, not a programming Q&A forum. Posts will be moved or deleted if they fit better elsewhere.
3. No sys-admin, networking, "how do I setup XYZ" questions. For those use the SysAdmin[^] or Hardware and Devices[^] forums.
4. No politics (including enviro-politics[^]), no sex, no religion. This is a community for software development. There are plenty of other sites that are far more appropriate for these discussions.
5. Nothing Not Safe For Work, nothing you would not want your wife/husband, your girlfriend/boyfriend, your mother or your kid sister seeing on your screen.
6. Any personal attacks, any spam, any advertising, any trolling, or any abuse of the rules will result in your account being removed.
7. Not everyone's first language is English. Be understanding.
Please respect the community and respect each other. We are of many cultures so remember that. Don't assume others understand you are joking, don't belittle anyone for taking offense or being thin skinned.
We are a community for software developers. Leave the egos at the door.
cheers,

From this article
Apple’s $3,499 Vision Pro AR headset is finally here | TechCrunch[^]
"$3,499...Interestingly, it does appear to be a work-first device. It’s telling that the company is focused on things like email, rather than, say, gaming."
Email causes enough interruptions to coding without requiring me to put on a headset just so I can read a marketing blurb which has nothing to do with anything I am or will be working on.
Also nothing like going to the design meeting and then everyone needing to run to get their computer and headset because the the throw away working design has one diagram that requires it.

There will be enough hipsters to buy all they can make - just so they can view their Starbucks in 3D before ordering an Oleato™ Caffé Latte with Oatmilk just like they did the day before.

I have no idea if this gadget will ultimately be successful or not. At $3500, I have serious doubts...
However, I actually watched the Apple presentation on it and the TechCrunch author is mistaken. While Apply did present a case for it in business (in a contrived use case as far as I'm concerned) the MUCH larger portion of the presentation was for home entertainment. Movies, gaming, etc...
You also seem to be coming at this from a "we'll put this baby on only for those few situations where it might be cool" point of view. For business, Apple presented it as "you'll use this baby nearly all the time and we can make all your tasks better". For example, open windows are not limited by the number of your physical displays or display sizes. Most devs I know would love more displays... no?

Hi,
Anyone here used RFID, 13.56 band to be precise? I think the project I'm on is not using it correctly. I was an RFID guru but the company I was in got screwed by a customers non-payment and the skills weren't kept upto date...

You might want to search in PLC / SPS Forums, we usually work with RFID a lot too, sadly I am more like you, I haven't touch it for years and I forgot a big lot of information.

I thought "hey, I'll integrate a documentation search into my website documentation"
https://honeythecodewitch.com/gfx/wiki/index.md[^]
So I created an account with Algolia and spent more than an hour on it only to determine that their deprecated web crawler that they won't let me use would work fine (if they let me at its results) but the one in production won't follow links.
How do you make a paying service with a web crawler that doesn't follow links? Seems like an important feature for a crawler, no? Like, only the whole reason for its existence in the first place.
It gets my goat from a professional standpoint when people release things like this and then charge money for them.
I asked them to delete my account. Instead they want me to troubleshoot this with them. I told them to pay me.
We'll see how that goes.

I can't overemphasize how good and correct that response is. ![Java | [Coffee]](https://codeproject.global.ssl.fastly.net/script/Forums/Images/coffee.gif)
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

True but also probably the hardest feature to implement. For example what if the link requires a user login. Or if it requires a selection from the original page. And of course one must eliminate recursive cycles also.
|
|
|
|
|
I usually handle the recursion with a HashTable of crawled URLS.

Sure, but get it right if that's what your product does.
And handling recursion is pretty easy on a modern system with a hash table.
In the case of my site, it's nothing fancy. There's a bit of potential recursion is all due to back linking.

What are you using to render your files?
On CodeProject, I use Lucene.Net to index and search our content.
I've used Lucene.Net 2, 3, and 4 for various projects and I'm not sure which I like best due to the differences in APIs.
There are versions ported to several languages from the original Java.
Using Stemming Analyzer, you can index by word roots so that 'run', 'runs', 'running', 'ran' all index to the same thing.
I created a custom tokenizer to handle technical documents geared towards programming to weed out some fluff.
It is blinding fast, and looking at the code can be addictive as the algorithms used are quite interesting.
If you are using a 'standard' CMS such as WordPress, Orchard, or most others, they usually have a Search Plugin which is usually based on Lucene.
