		<description><![CDATA[If you are an Activiti and maven user, this will most definitely concern you. As of this morning, the Powers That Be have decided to upgrade our maven repository. As such, the old url (which apparently was an internal url not meant to be spread&#8230;) will not work anymore. You now have to use the following url [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Do you know that feeling when you spend an afternoon refactoring a bit of code to get a smaller memory footprint, only to notice zero-impact during profiling? That exactly happened to me today. From the Java perspective, it would have made perfect sense. However, Objective C is not Java. And definitely not when talking about memory. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Past days, I&#8217;ve been doing some Activiti benchmarking. By accident however, I discoverd that all my tables were using the MyISAM storage engine, which is non-transactional. This is *not* a good idea when using Activiti, as the engine does count on transactions for executing processes in a correct way. The DDL statements of Activiti do state [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This weekend, I was running some simple benchmarks for Activiti, when one of my threaded benchmarks using the Activiti engine within Spring consistently hanged until forever (or at least 30 minutes, when I killed it). After some googling, I discovered that this could be due to DBCP not releasing connections. And indeed, when switching to [...]]]></description>

Basically I&#8217;m just displaying some images fullscreen and swiping left/right gives you the next or previous picture. Plenty has been written about the memory/caching difference between using [UIImage imageNames] vs [UIImage imageWithContentsOfFile] (see this and this and many more), but I [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Two monitors = productivity++ It&#8217;s been a know fact that multiple monitors do make developers more productive. IDE on the one screen, browser with docs/webapp result on the other screen. It&#8217;s fairly easy to understand why this would make you more productive as a developer. I&#8217;ve been using two monitors non-stop for the past four [...]]]></description>
