I’m not familiar with that term. What does that mean?

Oh, you’re a person. My bad. I thought with so many posts in such a short time that it was a bot.

Edit: it’s not a big deal. There’s a setting to mark an account as a bot. So I was more looking for that.

Edit 2. Here’s where I got the number from

Also, this is an account that’s 1 day old with 64 posts on news articles and doesn’t appear to be marked as a bot.

You’d think, but maybe not. One thing that China does is it’s really strict on not letting people bring money out of the country. I have friends that have money back home that they can’t get out of the country.

The main reason for that is that when the gov’t opens that up, billions start flowing out of the country really fast. So, if you leave, you’re leaving your money behind.

I see these things all over Latin America and stayed at a bunch of places that have them. It can get SUPER hot. The cool thing about them is that the pipes that heat the water are vacuum sealed and don’t heat the water directly. I forget the exact mechanics of it, but it pretty much doesn’t matter what the temperature is. It can take that solar energy and add it to water.

This bot is off so often, and I just realized I never actually use it. I’m just gonna block it.

I think this website and this website may be a more fitting place for you.

It’s how CPUs do floating point calculations. It’s not just javascript. Long story short, a float is stored in the format of one bit for the +/-, some bits for a base value (mantissa), and some bits for the exponent. As a result, some numbers aren’t quite representable exactly.

I was curious, here’s the driving route on GMaps

One thing to know about transactions is that they track data and then write it. It’s not the opening that slows it down. I have a question though, what is your source data? Do you have a big CSV for something? Can you do a db to db transfer instead? There’s another tool called the BCP utility.

Edit: SQL server/ssms have tools for doing migrations and batch imports

I’ve done a lot of work and no, that is not normal.

A few things: First - SQL server has tools for migrating data that’s pretty fast. SQL bulk copy can use some of these. Check to see if the built in db tools are better for this.

SQL bulk copy can handle way more than 15,000 records

Why are you wrapping a data dump in a transaction? That will slow things down for sure.

You generally shouldn’t be doing huge queries like that to where you’re nearing the parameter limit.

Can you share the code?

It looked like it was a combination with that and the chemical they washed it with. Also, for this particular product, it isn’t healthy to use the sulfur treatment, it seems. The producers said something to the effect of, “we know this will cause problems for people, but the fruit is prettier and we get better prices for them”.

The news company said that they tested them as well and found them to be toxic.

You know there’s a bit of irony here, b/c I’ve had essentially both of these conversations with my parents, meaning, they strongly opposed ending the embargo if you bring it up, but simultaneously not realize there was an embargo.

They’d say things like, “Why won’t the Cuban government allow the imports of things they need? Why won’t the Cuban government allow American tourists?” and then I’d tell them that’s not Cuba, that’s the US.

But they support an embargo while not really seeming to know what it’s doing and probably because they’re boomers so communism = evil and therefore if there’s bad thing for Cuba, then they support that.

The conversations get really strange really fast. My parents tend to get very ideological and often contradict themselves within a 5 minute span and I’m just staring at them like, really?

I’ve been using it for forever and also used it for DnD, based off of…what’s his name, one of the bigger DM guys on YT. It works great.

I’m using Obsidian for work since cloud note apps are blocked and I don’t like it as much. It works, but I’m not as wild about it.

One issue I recently had with one note is that I wanted to export a section to share on the web and wasn’t able to do it and the web interface doesn’t really let me do the management that I need. My work machine is my main one right now, so I’m stuck with what I’ve got. That all being said, aside from privacy, there isn’t really a direct reason to change.

But I’m not super wild that MS is reading my notes since I’ve also used it as a diary at points. I’ll have to figure that bit out later.

I just read the 25 pages and they used a lot of hard data from China’s own databases, though the data is very limited access and particularly opaque even when compared to other regions according to the report, and it looks pretty compelling.

Edit: I’ll add that I’m changing my mind about it. I used to believe it, then I started to distrust it, but now I guess I’m coming back to it. What’s pretty wild is I’ve watched videos of people going to Xinjiang and it looks totally normal. Mosques everywhere, arabic text, people smiling, etc. Then on top of that it’s pretty clear that western capital wants to reduce China’s gains, so of course we’re happy at these reports.

But the quickest way to clear it up would be for China to let the UN come and look and interview people, but they aren’t. I do recognize that UN investigations tend to come with US spies, but I don’t really see what’s over there to hide, anyway.

I wonder if any American president has the spine to not let another country drag us into another war.

nah.

F# also does that

The fact that they lead with crocodiles and don’t elaborate…

Funny thing about that, I used to do sound stuff and we’d tell people to practically kiss the mic. Just put it right on the chin and make out with it. Not the last part, but just about that haha

I’m so tired…

I’ll watch it
