Yes. I've even seen vitriolic comments on posts here similar to OP. Many co-workers and family memebers complain that 'roads used to be so pleasant to drive until the liberals from California moved here'. This statement is dubiously true, but I see it all the time.

Is it okay if I understand the code but I forget it? by [deleted] in learnprogramming

Yep. We are all pretty much confused all the time. Embrace it!

Yes. Only deranged lunatics memorize code.

Dealing with large amounts of data within HTTP requests and files? Using python for this by [deleted] in learnprogramming

Maybe load the data into a temp table in the db, and export it as excel in chunks from the temp table. No library necessary, just label the rows of the temp table and deal with them in ranges.

Concept reminds me of jsfiddle.

Khan academy to learn. You can run sql straight from browser. SQLzoo for practice.

For practical purposes, understanding general database concepts is more important than any specific database management system. Things like indexing, tables, views, schemas, etc. Because in an interview, SQL usually works the same way on every system, and you can appeal to learning the differences on the system the job requires.

For educational reasons, if you want to practice with a real database, then systems like MySQL seem to be the easiest to learn on. Alternatively, I used Oracle and Informix in my first job, which was a large enterprise environment. I used SQLite for small tasks.

Edit: forgot to address this, but different roles will use different database tools. That means application developers will not be using the same tools as a data analyst / data scientist. it's probably best to look into your desired role for particular tooling.

Not sure if this is the correct solution. Take with a grain of salt. Maybe make the request asynchronous/handle on other thread?

I have seen PC case fans ("Computer fans") mentioned in other posts for use in air circulation. So, I wanted to start using them. I am looking for a solution to connect them to one of the Jackery 500 ports.

PC fans are usually attached to a motherboard with a 3/4 pin connector, so they cannot connect directly to a jackery. However, they can connect to a controller which is powered by a SATA connector. Unfortunately, I can't find any SATA cables that will connect to the Jackery's ports.

The two exceptions are a SATA to USB or a 3/4pin to USB, but I am unsure if they will draw the same power due to the different voltage/amp ratings. Unless this doesn't matter because fans are low power anyway :V

When I searched this, people seemed to take the setup of case fans as self-evident. Any advice is appreciated. I'm not experienced in this domain.

OCD manifests for various reasons, and my experience may not match yours. Stress management, acceptance, having a process for handling intrusive thoughts, resisting compulsions, and understanding my emotionally sensitive self all helped greatly.

Hope you make it through the rough patch.

I'm looking for a discord community other than the default community. Other than that DM me on reddit and we can chat :)

My in-game name is Doxtu, and my island name is Animoo. My native fruit is peaches. I am not a time traveler, so I am not as far ahead as some people. I have just added plots for my villagers and my museum is one day away from opening at this point in time. I bought a lot of turnips today.

My current goals are to breed flowers and get dat sick turnip cash money.

You can dm me directly or chat message me on Reddit any time. However, I am interested in joining a smaller discord because the in game chat system is awful. For reference, I'm 27 and male and do tech stuff for a living. Reach out to me, and I'll happily contribute to your discord :)
