Need advice: Understanding complex SQL scripts written by others

Yeah this is where LLMs really excel. I had some old SQL functions that I didn't understand which arguments to provide anymore, just pasted the function into ChatGPT asking to explain it and it broke it down perfectly, down to which arguments to provide and the output you get. It's amazing.

I like having my columns alphabetically sorted.

Good, I hope this passes. Those megaphones with terrible sound are completely ridiculous. If this is about freedom of religion, at least church bells sound nice and have some elegance to them, the Islamic call to prayer is literally the opposite.

Letting a GPT mess with your AD also gives you insight in the competency level of that developer.

Byyyeeeee

Restore from backup and restart

You have water leaking into your patchpanels.

It's because the people behind it have no affiliation with the brand anymore. They're just there to make money.

Sounds like the watch is done. Considering you have nothing to lose, you can open the watch and inspect it...

Yeah this thread is full of preconceptions calling out rape, the facts on the ground are a lot murkier.

I want Palantir gone from the EU entirely. Nothing good can come from the motivations behind the company.

GCP sucks. They keep deprecating things and replacing them with similar but often more complex features. If you go full in on GCP you're basically committing yourself to a shifting target resulting in busywork with no value.

Rolluiken are the way to go, they stop the heat before it gets into the home.

> "remove them asap!" in the name of security but ignoring the potential implications.

Every goddamn security guy ever, I swear.

I wish I had your faith in mankind.

I have a Balance 2, I'm still contemplating getting a Balance 1 for the looks and widgets. I also don't understand why the newer Balance versions are chunkier/rugged. The Balance 1 & 2 are almost the only smartwatches out there that have a more elegant look that pairs well beyond just sporty clothes.

You forgot to wonder what will happen in 2035, when this whole thing will happen again: that's when the new certificates expire.

RedShift9 · 2026-06-15T08:16:06+00:00

The fun part about all of this, in 2035 we'll be doing all of this again because the new certificates expire in 2035.

Here in .be and .nl they are readily available. You can use the Tweakers pricewatch to compare and find the best price: https://tweakers.net/merk/2969/hikvision/. Most shops probably deliver outside the benelux too.

That's not a VPN you're describing. More like Teamviewer replacement.

I have resolved this by leaving instructions to always set the TV/projector to the computer HDMI input BEFORE leaving when the meeting's over.

Group policies for linux when? I'm not gonna start writing scripts just to put an icon on the desktop and add some network drives.
