Joe Celko's "SQL for Smarties" ... and then the other SQL books by Celko


Great book! Also, go read jOOQs blog: https://blog.jooq.org/


Then buy it back from Norway. (99% hydroelectric) :-)


We also some times just give the excess power to Germany, or pay them to take it. The Danish power grid is funny like that.


And apparently Cobol is coming back from the dead


I'm new to PostgreSQL and get nervous twitches from using pgAdmin. At the moment I run my queries in Toad. Tried PSequel, connected but it say (no schema) in the dropdown top left. Hope It will move forward, would be great if it came close to Sequel Pro. Think the uptake of Postgre among novices and webdesigners would increase if there at least was an easy way to connect and backup restore a db.


Did you delete all schemas in your db, including the "public" schema? Could you report a bug at http://www.psequel.com/report_bugs? Thanks!


Hope not! Connected to a live DB :-) I'll try to post a bug report tomorrow (GMT+1).


Obviously Apple has outsmarted us again. I love my Hackintosh with the "free" OS X (That I have had the last year (Coming from MS). But ... I finally got a iPhone a few weeks ago and I have bought for me and my so and children in the last 3 years: 6 iPads, 4 iPhones, 1 MacBook Pro, 2 MacBook Airs and 2 Apple TV's. We are now totally entrenched in the Apple Ecosystem. I love how all my devices now play together. The next six months we will likely buy 1-2 new iPads, 1 iPhone 6, 2 iWatch, 1 Apple TV and possibly another MacBook. So ... As long as Apple do not have any reasonable priced / hackable desktop I think they will be very carefull to not make osX harder to run "unofficially" on Hackintoshes. I actually get a feeling they make it easier all the time ...


Wow you won the lottery ? I don't think I could ever afford these many devices in a lifetime !


Have not read all three parts of this, but Kerr obviously is unaware that Apple actually sell a lot more in foreign countries than in the USA. (He is probably unaware that most of the world now have access to mobile phones). Now if Apple got banned from selling Apple products in the US it would hardly make a dent in their profits ...


I'm still in denial.


Noticed it was gone from Ninite yesterday. Good riddance and a nice one of Ninite I thought. Still on fresh Windows 7 the Adobe monster suddenly appeared. Not sure where it came from, IE10 or Chrome?


Unable to get write lock on 'subscribe' method for: com.commafeed.backend.services.FeedSubscriptionService

Another waste ...


I was more in 2009, still, it has probably taken a lot of work and a lot of time so the design became dated in the process ...
