Yeah, as long as every RDBMS has a JSON serialization method now (do they? I'm not up on SQL standards or where each RDBMS is implmenetation of them). Otherwise if we're shipping our own serialization as a procedure from core SQ

Yeah, I was just thinking of that, and how you'd probably want to concat with some level of structure to eliminate this. e.g. by adding a delimiter between fields and doing a find and replace on that delimiter (carefully, e.g. CSV rul

Hmm, CONCAT all fields in each row into a string, hash that string, use that as a derived table where you order the rows definitively, and concat all rows from that derived table into a string and hash that string. Repeat for second table.

Having kids is actually playing rather than being a bystander for the vast majority of people. How many people actually have an impact that actually means anything to the future otherwise? Vanishingly few.

If I was less scrupulous, I can think of a few ways to easily monetize that. The first and simplest is to have a toll line that charges on call and have a recording on the 867-5309 numbers that refers them to call it. Whether you go the su

It's ridiculous, but at the simplest level, it's not wrong. Your tools or the lack thereof will change how you think about things, for better or worse depending on the situation. If your goal is putting venison on the table toni

It's entirely valid to point at different items on the same trend line, even if they may be at different points along it currently. Florida and Texas may not be hosing down protestors or throwing them in jail, but this is hardly an is

It's less about it being difficult, and more about it being easy, obvious to read/write, and consistent within the new design. Was that not obvious?

Because now the type of join is an argument on the "join" operation, and join is the first word of that statement making it more obvious what the operation actually is? I also prefer foo(bar) over "bar to foo()" as well

That only makes sense if you don't understand all the things package managers generally do or why curl|bash is as bad as it is, and specifically why it's even worse than 'curl > file.sh; . file.sh' - Package managers

I don't disagree with that, but I think that's less of a "Linux security best practice" issue and more of a problem a community has, and that community isn't even necessarily "Linux users" as much as it&#x

I don't think that correctly encapsulates what's going on. Step by step directions on how to install are done because of what you say. An script you execute from the internet is a convenience method that automates those steps.

Whether regular users actually realize this or not, they shouldn't download random binaries or scripts from random sites and run them on Linux any more than they should on Windows. Contextually, it feels different, but it's not.
