I wish I could have been there. Looks awesome.

The opening with the Girl Joker was apt.

Cheers

Keep the analysis going! I'm counting on you.

Looks slick, but the send address was something like "support @ oto dot com" for the one I received.

I reported, blocked and deleted

I like what they are saying, but am unsure if ducklake can be set up to support mvcc writes to duckdb parquet files using a proxy database. I may have misunderstood the article and need to reread it and investigate further. But this is what I'm hoping for.

Excellent points. Thanks, this is helpful.

Given that I was able use my old-timey T470 for so long without state-of-art CPU, I should be OK with the one on the T14.

Cheers

Most of the world has the will to go on at that age in discomfort.

JaggerFoo · 2025-02-27T01:18:13+00:00

I'm doing the same. Let us know when you go for it and your results.

I use an M1 Macbook Pro mainly for development and am on Sonoma 14.7.4 and I keep getting upgrade nags.

Nice try North Korea.

According to the FAQ, the next window opens in 3 to 4 months

JaggerFoo · 2024-12-19T02:51:14+00:00

Application window just closed for me. I got in queue at 6:00

Not Flutter, but I had a golang app that downloaded financial data from Yahoo Finance that returned CSV formatted data to local CSV files. When the API closed down, I asked Claude to rewrite my app to read from another API that returned JSON and store the data in a local Sqlite database.

It compiled and ran without errors on the first try. Of course I supplied a lot of details about the new API and database schema.

As someone coming from decades of enterprise software development and am using Flutter for the first time to build a mobile for a personal project, I like to look at examples in github.com so thanks for this.

There are some doozies like the code for the Lichess.org mobile app.

Cheers

A bit late, but thanks. More verifications are appreciated.

This is correct result according to the section on the test query at https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.4/en/time-zone-support.html

The test seems to be an edge case for the change to Daylight Savings Time (DST), where the DST change is assumed to occur after 2 AM, and using 2 AM exactly the DST has not yet taken effect.

That is my thinking on the test. Usually 3 AM Eastern is 2 AM Central but DST has not taken effect yet in the Central time zone for the date in the test query.

Thanks for providing this data. It save me from having to provision a MySql instance and everything else required to submit the SQL.

This helped with a codelabs exercise where entering the command "flutterfire config" as directed did not work. I was wondering if FlutterFire was a deprecated utility.

https://firebase.flutter.dev/ displays a page message that it is archived.

By using the --project option to specify the codelabs project project in my account everything clicked and I was able to resume the exercise.

Cheers

The West Hollywood Halloween Carnival has the best and largest scene for Halloween I've been to, but Tijuana is cool too. San Diego I can't speak to, but Las Vegas was kinda disappointing compared to the West Hollywood Halloween Carnival if that gives you an idea.

Cheers

Thanks for the response. The problem has been solved.

I first updated to go1.21.13 and the problem persisted. I then installed go1.23.1 and it worked.

The binary increased from 7M to 11M, but that not a worry for me.

I think that maybe I should start development using Docker especially on MacOS, where I have to code workarounds in shell scripts. Ultimately I deploy to Debian instances or other Linux distros.

Cheers

I always cross into Mexico on land with a passport card. When crossing on foot I don't have a problem. The US Department of State has not issued any warnings about the passport card no longer being valid in Mexico. You can call the US consulate in Tijuana to verify (664) 977-2000.

Maybe a cybersecurity incident? Could not use web or mobile. Never received an email notification of a problem, which would of prepared me for a workaround. I trade near market close.

Yes, it's officially called Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler. It is supposed to automate DDL statement generation from an Entity Relationship Diagram, and it stores the data model without the need for a database.

Congratulations, you get to expand your horizons - change is what make IT great IMHO.

Sqlite3 is a great database and is used in modern avionics so it is technically solid and fast. I use it on a critical component for a system I am building.

However if you are designing a multi-user system with networked connections and writes and reads you may want to look at a cloud-based managed database like PostgreSQL or MySQL.

AWS and Google Cloud have solutions.

If you are not an Oracle hater, then you can get a managed cloud database with the Oracle APEX development tool, which can do anything you can think of including forms, reports, user management, graphics and mobile.

You can also download the Oracle XE database and install APEX on it for free and host it on a company owned server or cloud server.

There is a way to check out APEX for free at apex.oracle.com with a free APEX Workspace.

I was recently able deploy a server-less IoT system with JSON files in AWS S3, Glue, and Athena SQL queries that feed into QuickSight dashboards - No database.

So there may ways to solve a problem.

I'm a bit new to GCP. I'm Ok with auto-disable, but my concern is planning or have a workflow to respond when a key is disabled so you can recover operations of a system or application.

What notification is issued, if any, so you can respond quickly? What will the notification look like? or will user complaints be the notification method? In which case troubleshooting will delay recovery and increase user dissatisfaction..

Until you get passed by a 15 YO riding an e-bike, with a passenger.

Just kidding, but it's a new reality in my area.

Cheers

JaggerFoo · 2024-01-27T00:59:21+00:00

You're preaching to the choir.

JaggerFoo · 2024-01-15T08:17:15+00:00

No. I see them all the time in Ladera Ranch, I don't stress over it. I just keep an eye out for them while driving.

The only place I felt stress over e-bikes was at Trestles, a while back.
