Too bad you're posting as an AC. I would have modded you up into the sky, not only for agreeing wholeheartedly, but also and especially for the (admittedly tiny) sound of common sense, a sound all to rarely heard here on/.
is dirt-cheap. Here in Austria, I pay around 18 cents per kWh for power that comes for 80% from wind and water plants. I guess this part of the country would have a potential comparable to that of Switzerland, due to comparable geography: a rather flat basin (of the Danube) with the Alps close.
Hieroglyphs are not a language, they are a notation system. Egyptian evolved into what is now known as Coptic, and nowadays written in a variant of the Greek alphabet. Language != notation.
all bearded guys in this stuff. Indicator: guy smells of garlic and cringes when someone steps upon the qur'an. Or otherwise just check for the fanatical glint in their eyes.
No, populism. Currently, conservatives ( and also neo-liberals ) thrive on it, here in Europe. Poland even has a conservative-populist government. So does Denmark.
Agree. But that is not caused by a heavy influx of techies; rather by speculation (Middle-East tycoons driving prices up) and London's position as financial centre.
1) This is Dice stuff, posted on a Dice website. Intrinsical value seems questionable, if not for that of a place-filler. Slow news night / day ?
2) Regarding housing and commutes: this concerns only Silicon Valley and the Bay Area, a tiny part of the world. A large, large majority of us techies work somewhere else: Australia, Europe, Asia, other parts of the world. Scope of post seems limited. Also TLDR.
Agree. It's something seen in the "natural" evolution of (computer) languages all the time. When the language ages gracefully, such "finer" options become part of it.
Lord Crc answered correctly. UPSERT = (INSERT iff not exists... else UPDATE ). The article is correct in the sense that other databases, especially open source one, do not always handle this one correctly. It was not part of "traditional" SQL and is rather new. Object-oriented and graph databases do not have any problems with such operators, as they're explicitly written to deal with this use case. For relational databases like PostgreSQL this is a harder one to get right. Whether PostgreSQL now really got it right, can only be proven by protracted use "out in the wild".
Thumbs up !! I have been using a Q 10 for two and a half years now, and am convinced BB 10 ( recently upgraded to 10.3 ) ist the best and most cleverly-designed mobile OS on the market. With the standard set of apps I can do all my daily "productivity" things: manage contacts, appointments, take notes, browse etc. etc. I only added Skype (which runs very well). And yes, indeed - you can run any amount of tasks simultaneously, as long as your cpu is not fully saturated. Ask for that on Android and iOS !

The process works. In 15 years, I've never had anyone leave (except to retire), and I've never had to let anyone go.
Killing them with subsequent, nightly incineration in an empty neck of the woods? I see.

You'd be a nice prey for my dog (cross-bred between German shepherd and Dachshund). He'd rip your calves off, even while being stomped to death.
Interesting. I'd not yet thought of this, living in an owned house. Darn yankee unbridled-cap'talism croonies!

You mean this scenario, don't you ?
With software encryption, you'll still be able to do what you want.

I'm at it. Again.

a way to put offline all these CCTV cameras in Europe's cities. Or aim them at the heavens. Bring it on !
upserted, this morning.
Yo mama so fat we're in her right now

That is, indeed, *a way to start. It is NOT a way to develop anything even close to sustainable.
none of that company's executives have a clue as to how to run a worldwide-operating outfit. Simply no clue. Prolly overpaid, undereducated hoodies ?
of mobile apps at all ? The world would be so much of a better place....
