Direct SQL from the client definitely isn't for everyone, but these problems aren't insurmountable. Caching: This is true of any API allowing, for example, advanced search. If you can get by without it, great, but it's often

I'm currently working on a project to fully expose SQL to clients in some reasonable fashion. It's not going to be a great fit for every application, obviously, but just allowing users to filter any data any way they want by defau

No, databases that support multiple connections "properly" make sure that the connections are isolated, a connection only sees committed data and can run any valid transaction at any time. It's actually a large part of databa

I don't have any first-hand experience, but here in the Czech Republic (not rich by any means, but still pretty up there) there are some places that have the reputation of ghettos. They're mostly located in border areas, which had

The worse job you'd leave still need to exist, it's just going to be someone else toiling in unreasonable conditions. Sure, "get a better job" is something people in low-paying jobs should strive for, but it's selfi

I'd rather have the suggestions, I don't take hints from computer software personally :) Sometimes I just misremember a particular command (i.e. "submodule" vs "submodules").

An interesting UI paradigm I've run across [0] is using a keyboard-accessible hierarchical menu for all actions. It's similar to how AutoCAD works, but the "commands" you type are actually just sequences of menu hints. M

What's the alternative? Accepting the dev's favourite misspelling npm-style doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

Regarding email, I spent some tens of hours setting it up, including implementing DKIM, DMARC, SPF and getting my mail delivered to Gmail and O365. That was over a year ago and things mostly just work with the occasional upgrade or configur

Oh, alright. I know T-SQL and have actually missed variables in PostgreSQL before. Just please don't shorten it to "SQL", it's only one dialect of many.

by dvdkon 6y ago
What are you referring to as "SQL"? As far as I know, ISO-standard SQL doesn't have variables outside of its procedural language. I'm also not aware of any SQL-wide naming conventions. But I haven't read any of the

You keep saying that, but I don't see Termux dying unless Google straight up disallows fork() for all apps, even old ones.

I certainly couldn't afford Photoshop when I was a kid, but I can't imagine that being too different with a 20USD/month subscription. Maybe there are some people who can't afford 500USD software but are fine with paying

Definitely not "true enterprise", but I have fixed server issues with my phone on a half-hour train ride. Back then I just used SSH password auth to connect to a server, so no security measures stopped me. Nowadays I'd probab

So they can either put in a monstrous effort to end up with a worse product or not be on the Play Store. I know what I'd choose. The kind of people who want Termux are capable of downloading an APK, I wouldn't worry too much about

Oh, I thought someone made an addon for the original Unreal from 1998. I should have known better, but it's still funny to me.

I get that, and my setup is definitely not beginner-friendly. But I think we need to agree on what beginners actually do, because I wouldn't say customising power settings falls into that category. The problem as I see it is that even

Computer systems have gotten much more complicated. The closest you can get to the "full stack" ideal is probably Microsoft, and even they've given up on maintaining a web browser. Full-stack worked for a while, but nowadays

Agree with array/list, we don't need more contiguous chunks of memory, but tuples are very different, if only because they allow elements of different types. They're really more ad-hoc unnamed structs than collections.

Yeah, SFF PC of that era can be had for sometimes RPi-level prices. My grandma has one and it's still more powerful than most low-end laptops people use. I've also got one as a home server, it's plenty powerful for that too.

Unfortunately, it can't. Even something as simple as catching all keypresses globally is impossible with WebExtensions. Having to insert UI elements into pages is also pretty limiting and not a great user-experience with resource-hoggi

It actually is a problem for cheaper laptops whose exact SKUs often don't last more than half a year, which is my primary reason for buying "business" laptops.

I use my notebook's SD card reader all the time. Cameras, ARM SBCs, 3D printers, random SD cards I find laying around... There's plenty of use cases for an SD card reader, I certainly use video out on my notebook much less.

I don't get this either, is's not like the manufacturers benefit from the inflated prices themselves, as far as I know.
