Silly me;) I thought Google was proud to introduce an open source OS when it was introduced? And now it is not open source and comes closer to abandonware. I'm confused.
Why wait till the software is stable? Even if you do believe in the myth that software ever is finished enough, isn't the one of the purposes of open source to have a few extra eyeballs to check if it is mature? There are zillions of real open source projects with both stable versions for everyday use and current state for development. Why does Google think Andoid is any different?
I don't know the exact text of the proposed law (it is behind a flash lock), but could this be the best incentive to switch to a local currency (LETS scheme)?
If we vaccinate humans, we can fight a disease with immunity. But we won't vaccinate cattle. Rather than fight the diseases, we gladly slaughter our entire fauna, but won't fight the diseases.
On the contrary. The basis was, as in any science, observations. That we laugh about the theory that they developed on top of that observations is irrelevant. In a few centuries people will laugh about our current theories as well.
I agree wholeheartedly. And, like in the ancient Greek medicine, treat the elementary particle "person" as a human being again. The ancient Greek medicine is not a fight of symptoms, it is a whole healthcare. The basis was a balance, like in so many other medicine systems in other cultures. So the personal situation, mental environment, domestic environment etc. were all investigated when you visited the doctor. But off course the doctor knew you. He was a member of your own community. Not some unknown call-centre doctor routing his voice packets from the other side of the world.
The article also says that the VOIP thing was investigated as being good, as there was less time needed for administrative work and therefore more time for the patient. So I think it is the healthcare system itself that should visit an ancient Greek doctor. Its mental situation is very unhealthy, as is its domestic situation. And no, a Greek doctor would not necessarily subscribe pills. Often it was a diet, exercise or even telling the patient to play music.
But this time your hardware will prevent that. I once saw a small Apple computer with nice specs. It was actually that fact that I had to keep MacOS on it (disc space was not that large) to be able to reach the booting process that stopped me from buying it. I'm afraid that there just will not be any consumer-targeted computers anymore that will allow me to use the OS I want. Mind you, I already cannot buy a computer with the OS I want while having reasonable specs.
Given that I am using a database, "whatever language I am using" is SQL. Or should I write a program that writes a program that programs a database server? That is plain silly.
I think just the enterprise features won't be available. So developers won't use them if they can avoid them. What's more, you would have to have an "enterprise" licence for each developer and test machine. Ouch!
Live data
Should off course not be in an upgrade SQL script
Settings
Insert-only, should not be updated when present. This is where you would use INSERT IGNORE (or INSERT.. ON DUPLICATE KEY UPDATE somedummyfield=somedummyfield if you dislike INSERT IGNORE)
System data
For instance, Object-Relational-Mapping data. Should be set to the new value. INSERT.. ON DUPLICATE KEY is perfect for this. What's more, with MySQL's multirow inserts, you can make statements that are legible even if you set more than one field. Standard SQL's MERGE command is the least legible command I ever saw, and as far as I know Postgress does not even support MERGE.
In agile programming, both structural and content changes are often necessary. These must be done on both local development databases, test databases and live databases. So you would want the SQL script in your source code control system and be able to run non-interactively. For an example, see Evolving A Database With MySQL.

No. Steve Jobs. Or Freddy Mercury.

That is not a game, it is a 3D program. Why do it in 3D if you only have 48 hours?
Yes. Don't you see them competing fiercely in court?
You could possibly fit the entire American school system into him.
This whole thing would be funny if not for the fact that this womanizing shmuck is in charge of one of the largest economies in Europe
Well, at least he is doing something about that.
Brilliant! So the USA will fight even its own patent system with jet bombers?
No, we leave it up to the patent office to invalidate any prior art. No matter how much of it exists.
I already have trouble to fit a Christmas tree into my house. A square kilometer array is a bit too big for me alas.

Just out of curiosity, I did upgrade to MariaDB about a week ago, and I was pleasantly surprised how easy the transition went.
No, Blob Wars.

that malicious software (windows)
There, fixed that for you. I think this was exactly what the article was about.

Unless the conditions to have the "right" to sell Windows require this. For so-called "security reasons", for example.
I'm aware. Does that mean I will have a choice then?
My question: Now that "3d hacking" becomes mainstream, what (L)awful restrictions should we expect?

Because there are a lot of types of data:

Ah. And how do you convert the duplicate key / ignore inserts? I looked at postgress, but I did not think it was feasible for agile development.
