Seems like you're confusing societal incentive structures for human nature there, bud

Why would Putin set one asset against another?

You're in a large building you're unfamiliar with. Particularly one with an unusual layout, like a mall or hospital.

For a variety of reasons I've set a personal best for time in large hospitals in the last year. They can be very difficult to navigate in the best of times, much less in the less-than-ideal mental state that often accompanies time in a hospital.

I get that SQL text searches are miserable to write, but it would have flagged it properly in the example.

The text says, "...no leaks..." The case statement says, "...AND LOWER(claim_text) NOT LIKE '%no leak%...'"

It would've properly been marked as a "0".


I thought the same. Having said that, the parenthesis in the example are really wrong for what they were trying to convey. I suspect that they built this sql sample for the document and made some mistakes in its generation.

Perhaps I could say, it isn't just generated--it is also hallucinated!


I want one that is shaped like the USB-C port. Like it was extruded from the port. About as long as a key, maybe a shorter key, like a mailbox key. Has a rounded end with a hole to make a very sturdy keyring hole. Capacity is limited to what would be reliable and not overheat. <1g.

It sounds like you're describing the yubikey 5c form factor. Unfortunately I haven't been able to find a flash drive matching that form factor in my years of searching.

Close! I'm thinking something like the Kingston DataTraveler, but usb-c.

Yeah, if that existed for usb type C then I'd buy 4 today. Such a perfect form factor, just stuck on the legacy connector.

This is the same pattern as versioning, but with an extremely short sunset for the old version.

That is a very reductionist view and not particularly useful either. It shares elements with versioning and you could likely implement this using explicit versioning, but it is completely independent of it.

The main difference I see is that of focus here the focus is to migrate a database without downtime or excessive global locks, keeping multiple versions of the schema is a detail.


Seems like you agree with my assessment.

:(

Things can have similarities without being the same. Also not being unique is not a moral failure.

I think I am failing to understand your stance.


Saying the pattern is the same isn't the same as saying two things fitting the pattern are the same in every respect.

Patterns are necessarily reductionist, like any sort of comparison of things that aren't 100% similar.

There is value in recognizing patterns. They're useful for comprehension and memory.


> This is the same pattern as versioning

I guess we disagree on the reasonable interpretations of this sentence


That's only half of the sentence

It's actually not.

Versioning is a concept where each version lives in non-intersecting time intervals.

This concept is completely focusing on the fact that your structures lifetimes must absolutely have non-empty intersections. It's close to the opposite.


> "Versioning is a concept where each version lives in non-intersecting time intervals."

Is it? Node.js publishes "Current", "LTS" and "Maintenance" versions, and there's always a reasonable time interval during which consumers typically upgrade from eg Maintenance to newer LTS or even Current. From the publishing side, that's very similar to "expand and contract", in temporarily expanding what's supported to include Current, and dropping support for oldest versions leaving Maintenance. It's continuous instead of ad hoc, and there are more than 2 versions involved, but the principle is basically the same (at least if you squint).

Though I guess if you're talking strictly about schema management strategies, then yeah, "versioning" might be very different from "expand contract", as you noted.


It is often necessary to use multiple versions at the same time

How ridiculous they're solving one part of the problem when other parts aren't solved.

I would change my name. Family tradition isn't worth the hassle. The older people in my family would eventually get over it. This harassment will not stop.

The Facebook founder can change his name, he already changed his company's name. Mark Metaberg would surely be a more unique name.

But he won't

"Why should I change? He's the one who sucks."

That was funny in the movie. In real life, he won't change. You're the one who has to deal with constant avoidable frustration.

The groups have very different histories within the US, and one group can pass as the majority much easier than the other. Not comparable.

OK, and what of the other hundred countries or so? The Jews just blended in?
