Your body metabolizes MDMA into MDA, though. And MDA is actually just the amphetamine analog to MDMA. Just thought that's important to mention, despite it not changing the fact that putting mda into mdma is still "lacing".

I think this is a good product offering, and it's nice to see them compete with AWS on another front, as well as Digital Oceans' offering. However, I wonder if these abstractions are detrimental to developers understanding the und

I don't see this as a good thing. I would say that I declare (my admittedly insignificant) vote of no confidence in both any government and in corporations. When I look at the legislation passed in my lifetime, it's enraging. Laws

Because sometimes I DO use MySQL because a client requested it. At this point, I'll probably just explain to clients why pg is a much better alternative.

Well gold also has little intrinsic value. Of course, it has uses like in the manufacture of technology, but most gold is used for making useless shit into shiny useless shit. Crypto has uses, too though. Such as facilitating payments, DLT,

Yeah, but why would I use that over PostgreSQL? I already know postgreSQL and it's also THE gold standard for SQL implementations. AFAIAC PostgreSQL is the obvious choice.

This is demonstrably false. You need only look at the actions of our government (e.g. The CIA) to discern that the United States has gone to war (or "military conflicts" or whatever they call them these days) for reasons such as A

Hmmm, consistently deteriorating performance over time is rather suspicious. A move by Oracle to kill off competition for their implementations? I can only speculate, though. It seems odd, though. I guess it's all PostgreSQL all the ti

That would be a very firm "no". Guns are verboten in the education system, at least where I grew up and went to school. Even talking about guns was a huge "no". Of course, this was only 20 minutes from Sandy Hook, so per

I'm not so sure. Wouldn't a person on paternity leave be expected to perform less, if not zero work? By doing that, didn't he "meet" expectations? That seems, technically speaking, the accurate description. Of cours

Yes, perhaps the wording was odd. There is an actual... er, sequence of events that did happen. In other words, a reality. There is reality and speculation, but seeing as I can't know for certain, I can only speculate. The options I li

Real confirmation of an attack would be a nice-to-have in this situation. I can see 3 probable realities: 1. The sheer volume of commenters and responses took down the system. They cover it by saying a DDoS attack was the cause. 2. They are

What do you mean by "ask for a MySQL database"? If I were a client, I'd be rightfully pissed off if the developer I contracted gave me a completely different database than I requested in my stack. That's a complete breac
