It’s been a few weeks now since I have launched the Heisig Helper apps on Android Market. These apps are intended for people who are studying the books “Remembering Traditional Hanzi” or “Remembering Simplified Hanzi” by James W. Heisig and Timothy W. Richardson. I have links to these books on the Heisig Helper site. For [...]
Recently I’ve been listening to (mp3) audio books. First “The Audacity of Hope” by Barack Obama and now “The Diamond Age” by Neal Stephenson. Despite its apparent appeal as an alternative source of edification for those with meager attention-spans, it has never really occured to me to delve into them. I suppose the lull in [...]
不好意思，我太久没发贴子了。因为我到深圳来非常非常忙。你知道我最近开始新工作。这个工作比较好但是比较忙。我觉得这样我的生活比较充实，我不太喜欢总是闲着。 星期五我总算结束了三个星期以来要完成的一个新开发的软件项目。我用这个项目为了培训新来的人。我希望他们现在能使用这新知识。 我正在看奥运会的闭幕式，让我期待二零一二奥运会在伦敦。开幕式跟闭幕式的表演非常壮观。我不知道伦敦会不会媲美。 还有一件事我没说。我的手机全都破坏了。我讨厌这只手机，是Sony Ericson C600。我以前觉得Sony的东西都很好因为我的电视机，游戏机，照相机都是Sony的都也很好。。。除了手机。反正我买了一只新的三星SGH-U608。虽然这只手机不是完美的（不是一只iPhone)也是还可以。 明天要上班了那我就先走了。希望你有一个美好的一周。

One important bug that got fixed was that character and bigram frequency data was only getting partially loaded. This was due to a (possible, not yet confirmed) bug in MySQL’s [...]
I’ve update my CEDict application with a new “simple” query form, context-sensitive help, an about page, and several bug fixes. Next on my list of features is to implement user accounts so you can save word lists and such. Hah, now that I think about it I forgot to implement the autocompleter for the new [...]
After putting my CEDict application up I soon found that it was broken in IE. I have applied a patch so now all you IE users out there can use it without a problem. By the way, if you are still using IE you should really switch to Firefox.
I have placed a preliminary release of my CEDict web application up on the site. You can access it here: http://www.chrisdavaz.com/cedict At present you can query using English, Pinyin and Chinese characters. Autocomplete functionality is active for the English and Pinyin inputs however I have turned it off for the Chinese input as it was [...]
