I can't comment on Oracle, but for porstgres this feature is MORE durable than the previous behavior (many people woul djust turn fsync OFF all together). Now you can leave fsync on and yet it will go as fast as when it's off, and you have zero chance of corrupting your database when the lights go off.
If a mere 5 megaton warhead could cause such worldwide devastation, I'm pretty sure someone would have mentioned it before now
Actually, a 5 megaton blast, even non-nuclear, over a major populated city would essentially wipe it off the map, killing millions, and most likely throw the entire world into a global depression that could last decades. The world is more interconnected now than aver before. Losing L.A. or Chicago or Osaka or basically any city over a couple million people may not affect you instantly, but most of what you buy, most of the companies that you work for and have dealings with, the networks your data passes through, the companies that transport the food you eat, etc will have some segment of their business pass through that city, or are related tangentially to that city. Losing that city would cause a ripple of chaos that would travel the world and fundamentally alter your life, most likely for the worse.
"There are no pink grues" is a negative, and subsequently you can't disprove it, because you can't search every location in the entire universe.
That depends... If, for example, not being pink were a DEFINING characteristic of being a grue, then this could be disproven. Just like "There are no shades of the color red that look exactly like cerulean blue" This is provable WITHOUT having to search through every color, simply because "not being a shade of blue" is sort of a defining characteristic of shades of red.
i believe that slander, libel, defamation, etc are... perhaps outdated concepts.
I would expect no less from a fascist wife beater like yourself.
Hey now, you can't blame him for that! She just went WAY too far when she forbade him to have any more sex with both the neighbor's kids AND the neighbor's dog.
To which you respond, "Ah ha, I found one after all, it says, 'MLB revokes ALL copyright on this worka nd it is not public domain, and whomever has a copy of this EULA next year own all the baseball teams.'"
You are so blinded by your hatred for America that you completely ignore the fact that N. Korea's population is starving in the dark while their army eats well.
Actually, the army does NOT eat so well either... but they eat BETTER than te rest of the population mainly because, well, if they didn't they have all the guns and there is little that you can do to stop them from using the pointy end to get food.
So when is this guy gonna start blogging about what happens to American soldiers captured alive by Islamists?
I think what you meant to ask was, "When is the U.S. government going to start classifying and redacting stories of what happens to American soldiers caught alive by Islamists?"
Imagine the radio really did belong to a terrorist... By coercing a confession from this guy, the FBI basically would be letting the *actual* terrorist go free and clear. If this doesn't make sense to you, imagine the case of a rapist on the loose. Imagine that every time a woman was raped, the police chose from a hat and arrested and tried a random person. Would that make your wife safer on the streets alone at night? Having a random guy in jail while the real rapist is still out on the hunt? What's more, thinking that the rapist is in jail, she might be MORE inclined to enter into riskier situations.
This kind of "law enforcement" actually makes us LESS safe than simply doing nothing at all. Is the FBI *really* staffed by living, thinking humans? How could they possibly do this kind of thing and not be incredibly ashamed of themselves!?
The real question isn't "ratio of pay to free", but "amount of profit made compared to last radio head album". Or even just "amount of profit made at all".
Then why don't you act like it, Mr. Gore? If there were a huge asteroid headed this way, I can guarantee you'd be out building a bunker to protect your family. Why not in this case? Is it, perhaps, because it really is NOT that scary to you after all?
If the chance is so low that life exists out there in the universe, then that means the chance of US being here is quite low too... and yet, here we are! Which makes you wonder how rare life ACTUALLY is after all.
I always find it amusing when people say money is "wasted". If I took a stack of bill and burned them, or buried them never to be seen again, that would be wasting them.
What about blowing crap up? i'm curious if the money we spent on the war was wasted or not.
FYI, *I* have a fiber line to may house in san francisco. It's real fiber. I get 6 Mbit/s. Why? they rate limit it to match comcast and such. Assholes! Seriously, it's insane.
In fact, what we should REALLY be doing is come forward as a group of 30,000,000 p2p users and admit guilt collectively through a single lawyer, and demand that we also be charged 9250 per track.
Betcha that would make news, "p2p community self assesses its guilt at 27 trillion dollars and wants to know where to drop off cheque?"
It isn't the employees that are giving the "performance", all they are doing is transferring the radio waves that are ALREADY IN THE AIR into mechanical pulses. It's the RADIO STATION that is actually sending out the offending material.

People like myself who design software requiring a database usually prefer speed over features.
Thats why MySQL is usually chosen.
Except that postgres DESTROYS mysql in pretty much every benchmark you can think of, except the one where you use versions from 5 years ago...
... when the SDK hits for real -- and the code is undoubtedly changed. ... and re-leaked.
Well no matter how bad they look, they'll still look better than mine.
Brian.
Hate to break this to you, Brian...
It's me. I'll take a personal check.
If you can ban sex offenders from the internet, why in the hell can't you ban murderers and rapists from sharp objects?

NOW see how fast they "find" the original.

So, where's my cure then?
That way they could have gotten off with only 5 years, two for good behavior.
I'm making a note here: HUGE SUCCESS
If by "classified" they mean mean "stuff that makes us look bad".
If my "stuff that makes us look bad" you mean "stuff that shows we *are* bad".

And then call the IRS.
