... I wasn't being completely sarcastic. We are a pretty big Oracle customer. Perhaps we can beat them over the head with examples of databases that do error...
... Sure. Oracle error reporting has been the same for damn near ever ;) ... As a DBA I find Oracle error reporting pretty damn bad. But usually you can go...
... That's awesome, Jason! My little guy is turning 2 in October. (Man time flies!) He alternates between being really cute and being a complete handful, but...
... We can just agree to disagree then that ms is best-equipped to handle my security. Personally I would find it foolish to think that a company with such a...
... Certainly. However I didn't say Microsoft knew better than you how to handle your security. I said they were better equipped than a given vendor to make...
Not surprising. But I think it'll all blow over - apparently some groups can do horrific things and nobody cares, except when similar horrors might possibly be...
if sp2 makes things more secure it would be a good thing. But I guess this would be the "you got to crack some eggs to make an omelet" This article claims...
You're assuming that these are rational people. By their actions it is obvious they are not. You're also assuming they're Muslims and this story has nothing...
Note that I didn't invoke Allah or any other specific religious group. I'm not assuming they're rational people - that's why I figure the only way to cure...
If I am not mistaken the Chechens are Muslim rebels. They are the same ones responsible for the plane bombings and the assassination of the previous Chechen...
... While I don't think it is the right approach and indeed would be fully against it, I would be interested to see how well it worked. Sometimes I think now...
A good read. I have to admit - I generally write an equals method in the bad way he described, and never considered what happens in the case of sub-classing. ...
... Indeed. It sorta adds gravitas to the decisions that people who DO have to make those decisions have made. I saw a blog entry a few days ago that pointed...
... It has everything to do with Muslim terrorists because the "rebels" in Chechnya are, in fact, Muslims. The media love to leave that part out. -- She drove...
Thanks to whoever responded to my query about spam filters. I have been using SpamPal with Outlook and it has been very effective with the Bayesian filter...
But even though you write them in a "bad way" do you have any bugs? I am wondering because the only time this really seems to be an issue is if you are using...
My bad then. But in general I thought that the reason they were doing these things was because they wanted to break away from Russia and not because of...
... No, because I don't think I've ever run into the situation he describes where I've got both a superclass and a subclass that both need to implement equals....
I don't think this would be much of a deterrent for radical terrorists. From my limited readings it seems most of the people who are following this way of...
yeah I was trying to justify a bit of DTSTTW In reality though the simplest thing that works is to really do it right the first time. We have tried to...
Also, eally interesting interview with some of the guys involved in making a free version of it (particularly page 3). http://osnews.com/story.php?news_id=8139...
The issue is whether a subclass object can be equal to a base class object. I would say, usually not, and Andre's implementation ensures always not. Adrian's...
Basically, I was failing to understand how two (out of a total count of two) threads could *both* get into that confused state. Some things I was failing to...
... No, you were right. This is a political fight over control of Chechnya. The fact that the rebels are Muslim has about the same relationship to the fight as...
