Let's demonetize Spotify. Cancel our accounts and campaign to others to do the same. I cancelled my Spotify account, and now I am using Tidal, which pays the artists a higher percent.

My remark is not about the quality of college education. It's about his mindset. You don't need a college education to read research articles, books and journals. But you certainly need an open mind and some discipline to not try

I would say that's more a Windows feature than something tied to MS Office. But yes, Active Directory is unmatched for administration of a big number of computers and local networks.

Serious question: Why don't you use LaTeX to prepare the presentations? A few things I could think of: the templates for presentations are less varied, less diverse, could look repetitive. With Office, you can make the most crazy des

Annotations, citations, bibliography management I can understand, even if I use LaTeX for that and consider it a far superior tool. But video recording and streaming? Why would anyone prefer to use MS Office for that when OBS exists? Is it

This is a serious failure of the backup mechanism not being able to restore from a backup, and a serious failure of the operating system, not being able to delete files in a mounted external disk. Luckily, all important files were in the cl

There was a time PostgreSQL did not run under Windows, and that is IMO what gave MySQL the market share edge. Without these windowless years, PostgreSQL would be the most used RDBMS right now.

I am used to the curly brackets, and my keyboard muscle memory is used to the curly brackets. I put the cursor over a curly bracket, press CTRL-M, the cursor navigates to the other curly bracket. My eyes also parse code much faster when it

Ohh, I wish it was only a factor of five. It would even be acceptable! Discord the Electron app uses 1.2 GB of RAM. Ripcord the compiled client uses about 30 MB of RAM. That's a factor of over 42 times.

We don't use Teams because it is fancy, or smooth or appealing. We use Teams because the company that pays our salary tells us to use Teams. End of story. And I would definitely trade opacity and fancy buttons for a client that loads a

Same as you. I am trained to add Wikipedia or search in another way, because of the namespace conflict. Even that is not enough, after a while, and more and more words are needed. Some search engines are better or worse about this.

It doesn't matter. The important point is we are no longer being tied to Oracle for it. Now the code runs in both MariaDB and Aurora in AWS. We only pay AWS for the servers now.

I have worked with Oracle and MySQL was the replacement. I rewrote the dozens of PL/SQL SP into the retarded language that MySQL has. It's not impossible in any way.

It's not that complicated. All our business logic was into PL/SQL stored procedures, I migrated them to MySQL stored procedures. The MySQL language is a bit retarded, and some extra work was needed, but everything was doable.

I simply see it as search word-space collision. In the future, whenever I search for "sugar" I will have to deal with hundreds of unrelated results for a programming language. I see the same issue with go, d, eclipse, and a few ot
