virtualbox bridge network with wireless card

I have bridge the network of virtualbox vm with my wireless card, and it may not working, some router found it ip or mac addresses conflict.

And I found the following in virtualbox manual:

Bridging to a wireless interface is done differently from bridging to a wired interface, because most wireless adapters do not support promiscuous mode. All traffic has to use the MAC address of the host's wireless adapter, and therefore VirtualBox needs to replace the source MAC address in the Ethernet header of an outgoing packet to make sure the reply will be sent to the host interface. When VirtualBox sees an incoming packet with a destination IP address that belongs to one of the virtual machine adapters it replaces the destination MAC address in the Ethernet header with the VM adapter's MAC address and passes it on. VirtualBox examines ARP and DHCP packets in order to learn the IP addresses of virtual machines.


So I switch back to wired network card, everything goes well

A simple implementation of DTW(Dynamic Time Warping) in C#/python

DTW(Dynamic Time Warping) is a very useful tools for time series analysis. This is a very simple (but not very efficient) c# implementation of DTW, the source code is available at  https://gist.github.com/1966342  . Use the program as below: double[] x = {9,3,1,5,1,2,0,1,0,2,2,8,1,7,0,6,4,4,5}; double[] y = {1,0,5,5,0,1,0,1,0,3,3,2,8,1,0,6,4,4,5}; SimpleDTW dtw = new SimpleDTW(x,y); dtw.calculateDTW(); The python implementation is available at  https://gist.github.com/3265694  . from python-dtw import Dtw import math dtw = Dtw([1, 2, 3, 4, 6], [1, 2, 3, 5],           distance_func=lambda x, y: math.fabs(x - y)) print dtw.calculate() #calculate the distance print dtw.get_path() #calculate the mapping path

Change the default user when start a docker container

When run(start) a docker container from an image, we can specify the default user by passing -u option in command line(In https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/run/#user ). For example docker run -i -t -u ubuntu ubuntu:latest /bin/bash We can also use the USER instruction in DOCKERFILE to do the same thing(In https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/builder/#user), note that the option in command line will override the one in the DOCKERFILE. And there is actually another way to start a container with neither DOCKERFILE nor -u option, just by a command like: docker run -i -t ubuntu:latest /bin/bash # with ubuntu as the default user This happens when your start the container from an image committed by a container with ubuntu as the default user. Or in detail: Run a container from some basic images, create ubuntu user inside it, commit the container to CUSTOM_IMAGE:1 . Run a container from CUSTOM_IMAGE:1 with "-u ubuntu" option, and commit the container to CUSTOM...

Install mysql-python with mariadb

mysql-python requires libmysqlclient-dev in ubuntu, but the installation of mariadb will have the lib with unmet dependenccies, so the error of "mysql_config not found" may occurred if you install mysql-python via pip. The case is that mariadb has a compatible package, if you have the ppa setup as in  http://downloads.mariadb.org/ . Just "sudo apt-get install libmariadbclient-dev".
