Something I didn't get : SQL server won't callback clients [or application-server] informing that new data is available. So how do you poll it? A query in periodic loop? Some other way? How much that scales, or how much load does

RIP : MySQL of the 90s that made the dynamic web possible. There were two options then. mSQL where you couldn't join between two tables. And Postgress95 which crashed sometimes as soon as a client connected. MySQL had been a breath of

I don't use null terminated strings. ptr+len struct everywhere. And when I need to call an API, like fopen, I make a temporary copy of that string + the null termination, do my work and then free it. You can printf non-null terminated

Gone are the days when hosting price was dropping every year. Now it's increasing. Blame it on inflation or market downturn or whatever, but a trend that was here since the beginning of the Internet, has now reversed.

And then industrial revolution didn't take out jobs, rather created more. So did computers in the 80s and 90s. I remember typesetters in our locality were protesting in the 80s that computers were taking off their jobs. They started so

Enable certificate authentication only, and turn off password authentication. And you are safe. A million bots attacking a billion times won't break in. You don't need to put anymore security over it, like changing ssh port or run

For me, it never gets more complex beyond the first 3 points you listed. Write a few wrapper functions sql() rows() row() map() value() insert() update() delete() and that's it. Use hashmap to send parameters and receive the result set

in short - as the universe expands black holes gain mass because of the expansion. - as black holes gain mass, they create more repulsive force. - that repulsive force expands the universe even more at an accelerated rate.

It replaces singularity at the center of Black holes and brings in Vacuum Energy in its place. But I thought Vaccum Energy theory isn't proven in practice, in the sense there's huge discrepancy between theoretical value vs observe
