Each product in the database will have a barcode (GTIN, EAN) and a PLU which is often a 4-6 digit code assigned internally. The PLUs are used as lookup codes when the barcode fails (usually because the product is not entered in the DB). The

It's the coffee question. Ask people if they like coffee and look at coffee marketing and it's all about "rich, dark roasts". Marketing focuses on deeply aromatic black espresso. Work as a barista for 5 mins and most of

I had a Volvo (in Europe, so not an expensive import, but 'domestic') and it cost me a fortune. It was so boring I could feel it sucking at my soul when I got in it, and the engine timing could only be set by Volvo using specialis

The country I live in owners change the timing belt before recommended date or else they pretty much can't sell the car for the price they want. It's a bid deal. So much so, that when I sold a car last year I was getting somewhat

When you add an event you scroll down, down, down. The final step is OK/Cancel and they are at the top of the page, centered. I can't reach those buttons with my thumb and have to use my other hand. They should be down at the bott

Has nobody thought to ask the Bosnian guy _why_ this ancient (which it isn't either) civilization would create these balls? Every archaeologist I have ever met, and I've met a few, would tell you what it is based upon what it woul

I felt when I was a student that some teachers just wanted everyone to know how clever they were and sometimes that could be achieved by putting someone else down. Someone who wasn't in a position to talk back. The good teachers gave

To be fair, I use VB every day and it is getting frequent updates and hasn't crashed in 2 years, it used to crash quite often when Sun developed it. Maybe it could be something better, or amazing and different, but it's still free

Google translate had this to say: Revolution is not a dinner party, or writing an essay, or painting a picture, not so refined, so leisurely, "gentle", as "温良恭俭让." Revolution is an insurrection, a class overthrows anothe

It's an edge case, but we recently asked for this 'feature' to be removed from a framework we use because the app opens programs in the browser and does not modify the URl, so backspace took the user to the last URl in histor

Platitudes are true for everyone, the comment you replied to was without value. Why do people seem to think all journalists are left-leaning?

Continuous, ponderous nodding. The listener's big gun. What I want is people in IT to stop using "super". Super effective, super this, super that. Super hard to stop, but it would be super if they did.

I detest the fact that the browser uses the F-keys for its own shortcuts. We have an a web-app ported from a mainframe app that uses the F-keys for functions the _user_ carries out and users love being able to press F1 through F12 to activa
