I actually had a chat on slashdot with a developer of ff. The guy was so disillusioned towards why would people ever have expectations of an open source project and he can do wtf he wants cause he's not getting paid to do it. Well he's right, but what will he do when nobody is using firefox anymore?
Continue to work on FireFox? If he's really doing it for what it gives him directly (a product tailor made for him) then the number of users needs to be 1 for this person to be happy.
I've certainly released things like that. If it works for you then great, but if not then find something else and don't bug me about it.
Unlimited for me isn't what you use in a normal month; it's for covering the exceptions.
Such as the first two weeks when I moved into the country and was living essentially in a hostel without internet (15GB that month) and moving into a place.
Or, the month when I needed to backup a remote server I use for work purposes and my home internet provider decided it was a good time to cut their cables (excavation down the street) for a week. 25GB that month.
My carrier lowered my priority to the bottom of the list after crossing a threshold but I accomplished what I needed and will be their customer for a very long time as a result.
We are all ignorant. It would be challenging to find a single person who has all of the knowledge necessary to build a simple pencil (including extraction of raw materials; don't forget to include government applications to open the mine or take trees from the forest) let alone anything complicated.
The question is, why do we express opinion on subject matter we are ignorant in.
INSERT INTO (col1) foo SELECT * FROM (VALUES (1),(2),(3)) AS newdata(col1) WHERE col1 NOT IN (SELECT col1 FROM foo);
This will create a record for values 1, 2 and 3 if and only if they do not already exist.
Yes, the syntax is considerably longer.
FYI, the normal process for scrubbing during dataload is to create a temporary table holding the data, massage it there, then insert into the real structure.
There is a huge different in leadership requirements for a startup with zero to 3 employees versus an established firm with several thousand employees
Very few founders make that transition well. Most founders have a difficult time of letting go of the micromanaging and trying to take part in everything in order to scale beyond themselves.
Part of the golden parachute is being a fall guy for things you did not cause.
The board makes a decision which cannot turn out well and you follow it as directed despite logging opposition to that decision Bad things happen and someone (you) are to take the blame for the implementation of that decision.
The payment for leaving is for not arguing or airing bad laundry.

That's impossible. Often it is interaction with other automated tools at different companies that cause the loss of funds.
If they tweaked their algorithm over the weekend specifically to play on a weakness in yours; then there is no QA that can be done on your side to know that.
Losing money is also defined as not making as much as possible. If you were making $1000/minute on Monday doing something and only $100/minute on Friday (many bots only run for the first 5 to 10 minutes of the market); then that is also defined as a loss of $900/minute.
Another part may have adjusted their algorithm to be a more aggressive market maker and is taking all the trades.

If you're in a major Canadian city then you have another choice until Christmas at least.

Even solar is lower than that.
Sure, might have to run the dish/clothes washers during the day but I'll gladly pay $10 per load for each of them.
The high-end Androids have sold fairly well over the last year too.
The gmail application was very slow for me too until I purged all its data and resync'd from the server, now it's pretty reasonable.
Perhaps there was a storage format change and a poorly written compatibility shim in place.

There is no such thing as "less harmful" where censorship is concerned.
So there is no type of content that you would make illegal to distribute or possess?
Pretty brave using a term that even the Urban Dictionary doesn't know about.
You need to delete the account before being required to turn over the account.
Even better if you do it before the divorce is filed.

Normally I'm under 700MB for a month.
A downright wrong answer is "I'll add an index".
Oddly, a covering index could make it faster by reducing the IO for certain products.
Still not a great answer but it isn't completely invalid if you really need all columns and all tuples.
Step 1 was to remove his anger component.
You would have to start at nudist colony's. Most people hide themselves.
That somewhat implies he has a sizable nest-egg elsewhere which reinforces loftwyr's point.

Which phone operating system were you writing and using your own applications for before Android?
Coal mining deaths are measured in workers per 100,000 ton and the world currently burns roughly 1 billion short-tons per year.

How does manual verification help the bulk of the population identify fake certs?
You need a line to prevent eating what you reproduced.
If Android were GPLv3 then they wouldn't be in violation because they would not be selling Android based phones.
They began with the assumption you still bought a car so the bicycle was additional.
The math is quite different if you buy the bicycle instead of a car.
Possibly true for product but you can buy a near infinite amount of services and be environmentally sustainable.
