No... for pete sake no! The whole point of mocks for data base is not to test schema changes, it's to test a unit of code. These most certainly do not change the additional requirement of integration testing with real database tables.

I did a bunch of research essays into medical uses of AI/ML and I'm not terrified, in fact the single most significant use of these technologies is probably in or around healthcare. One of the most cited uses would be expert analy

Hi bc569a80a344f9c, I also use a table for university, instead of a laptop I've got the bigass Samsung s9 ultra (or whatever it's called) because it's near A4 size for reading PDF papers, etc.. This tablet has a special acces

Hi Locutus_ I'm one of those people with "analysis paralysis" towards the E-Ink ecosystem. Remarkable Paper Pro came out while I was researching, and made me aware of the set of dichotomies around the notion of minimalism vs

This sounds like a cliche stereotypical IT problem. And firstly, not a not a bad thing, because it's new to you. Luckily there are mountains of best-practices for addressing this issue. Picking one feather from the big pile, I'd s

Is this going to murder those fancy shell scripts that self-extract a program appended to the tail, which is really just an encoded blob of some kind, presumably compressed, etc.. ???

Honestly, don't care... The machines simpley obey their instructions, which was presumably to fluff out some words about who scored points, who defended from those who wished to score points, etc... Ignoring the halftime events seems l

Back in the old days, early 1990s Net Neutrality actually meant something, and was not an overloaded nebulous term like today. It was very simple, being a boiler-plate contract clause between Internet routers, such as universities that peer

Paired characters... That's an interesting topic. Do you happen to know if UTF-8 contains more "pair" characters? In Latex we call these delimiteres, but that's just my limited experience coming in from math side. I tend

Also, the whole thing about "velocity" is just weird. It's as if some marketing goon heard the word "Velocity" and decided to over load the term in a manner that does not mean Velocity in the mathematical sense. Lik

Yeah, Europe has an interesting way of maintaining legal fictions. The geographical naming rights is one such thing. Anybody anywhere can make any kind of cheese, but one cannot say the cheese is parmesian (or any other given example) chees

Ugh... I used to have this conversation on a monthly basis with co-workers. Many people seem to incorrectly believe that network speeds are measured in base-2 (binary) where in fact they are measured in base-10, just like a hard drive. And,

Seems to me people are not easily impersonated. However, the false belief that a proxy persona, such as remote telephone, video call, or any other non in-person interaction are what give rise to impersonation. Might as well simply say that

Given the 50 years, I'd say the original investment has paid off many times over, and all the generic brands got their cut. It's more than fair to society to allow the medicine to go over the counter.

I think the cloud instance is a pretty good option, and is effectively what the old-gangsta CentOS team was doing, with more or different steps. Back in the old days the RPMs were manually imported, there was no RH provided pipeline to get

Correct. To add to this, Red Hat does offers a free developer tier subscription, which allows individuals to download Enterprise Linux free of costs, but with strings attached. One of those strings, somewhere in the fine print is legal lang
