The opposite is also true: debugger changes timings drastically, it removes race conditions, code suddenly works when you run it in debugger, and stops working without.

Teams always show the (un)mute button. And if you start talking muted it will remind you you can not be heard!

Not DB2, but the meaning is the same. In a time-series (or event) table you have one date - when the data point is valid (event occurred). In a temporal table you have two dates - interval when the data is valid. In a bitemporal table you h

Yes, almost everything ended as temporal or bitemporal model. Pain to work with. Even for simple questions like "What is the customer #1234 company name?" the system needs to know when are you asking.

I was working on a billing system for utility company and it was a nightmare but not for the reasons from the article. Dates are no problem, everything is billed at the end of month, quarter or year. Upgrades are downgrades are simplified,

If I read this correctly, all the route components are evaluated (i.e. rendered to virtual DOM) and only then one of them is selected and shown (i.e. rendered to HTML DOM). This seems utterly inefficient, even for educational example.

My pet peeve with Lazarus, Deplhi and other visual RAD tools is lack of reusability and composability. The built-in visual blocks are great, but building your own is nontrivial, you can not build them visually, you must code. To add insult

Excel is great and versatile, yet lacks some critical features. - It's easy to load data from database or API without VBA, yet impossible to write updates back without VBA. With VBA it's still messy string concatenation of SQL que

Yes. If you are able to follow instructions you will not turn the oven on with the phone inside.

I think it tests latency of wifi connection. If wifi can not leak into the oven, microwaves can not leak out.

But who pays $2500/month for nothing?

by janci 5y ago
Pre-birth, there is 9 month period that slowly goes from nothing to something. Post-death, there is nothing. So they are not the same obviously.

Yes, the documentation was lacking, the consequences were unexpected, the API design was not great to prevent this and the dashboard did not show the problem. They are all Stripe's faults. But enabling an auto-magic feature for a busin

The usefulness of web3/crypto/blockchain is said to be in decentralization. However it is not the blockchain and crypto algorithm that enable decentralization. It is not even the distributed ledger. We do not need these things to

Wow, very smooth. Once I wanted to do a similar thing to the "Net" visualization with plain 2D canvas (without WebGL) and it was so slooow. Side-note to waste of battery/compute: it was not for a general purpose web page, but

I don't do intraday planning, but for TODOs I settled on a A5 paper with handwritten task list. It's very satisfying to strike out completed tasks. From time to time I rewrite pending tasks to new piece of paper. It is a physical

I guess this varies greatly between countries. I used to get these, but as the GDPR thing came they were less frequent. For the most persistent ones it was enough to say you do not give consent and request to be deleted from their database
