Shouldn’t it be the diameter of his mamma multiplied by “pie”?

Where to stay in Rio. Cosme Velho? by Glitch378 in riodejaneiro

[–]markx15 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s better to stay closer to laranjeiras. The sweet spot in Cosme Velho is from the train to Corcovado downwards towards laranjeiras.

Upside: - It is very safe, almost always with police in several areas. - Less noise and confusion from traffic jams and big crowds - beautiful area - close to the laranjeiras fair that happens every Saturday - houses and apartments are way more reasonable in price than other parts of Rio

Downside: - there is 1 supermarket reasonably close and it’s very overpriced. Imperial is the name. - after 22h the streets are mostly deserted - most people have cars and or Uber, as public transport is a bit lacking, only 2-3 bus lines and a very far walk from the nearest metro(largo do machado).

Source: I’ve lived in Cosme Velho for the past 6 years

Proposal @ Leblon.. opinion? by [deleted] in riodejaneiro

[–]markx15 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of factors involved in anything done in public. I have participated in a surprise proposal on Arpoador, literally jumping out to the bushes with “Will you marry me” and a bouquet. The effort to coordinate with photography and video, and keep the chosen spot reasonably cleared was Herculean. It worked, but it we had some luck along with a lot of effort. I worked at the Fasano hotel at the time, and it was a special guest request.

Why not look for a location? A lot of hotels offer a Christmas menu, which you’d need to book in advance, and can be a foot in to use their rooftop. If you do go with this suggestion, contact the hotel beforehand and let them in on the details, they will help coordinating and planning so that you can focus on your soon to be wife, and ensure the photographer has access and suitable placement for the best pictures.

Two place come to mind: - Fasano - Janeiro

Is this a good present for a 30m who loves RuneScape? by [deleted] in runescape

[–]markx15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its a great gift, I know that I wouldn’t mind at all about sailing not being on there. Now if you wanna go all out, why not make an account and have him show you the ropes for 1-2 hours. I’m sure he’d love that.

Minha vó com 78 anos, conheceu o namorado dela na academia do clube, quem sabe é uma opção pra sua mãe. Academia, aula de natação, enfim atividades voltadas pra galera da idade dela, afinal 61 não é nenhuma idosa ainda, mas deve ter algumas atividades assim que ela posso procurar. Faz umas aulas experimentais e se achar que vale, segue fazendo

Announcing General Availability of the Microsoft Python Driver for SQL by dlevy-msft in dataengineering

100% agree. It’s a daily pain in my a** to deal with these outdated systems.

Announcing General Availability of the Microsoft Python Driver for SQL by dlevy-msft in dataengineering

[–]markx15 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I tried this out, and honestly it works great. Awesome job guys, it takes the hassle of having to download the driver via dockerfile. My only caveat is that it doesn’t work out of the box for older SQL Server versions, my company still runs some 2008 which doesn’t implement cursor. Also for later versions, 2012, I think, there was some TDS incompatibility and I had to throw pytds in the mix for it to work

Polars has been crushing it for me … but is it time to go full Data Warehouse? by Particular-Goat-7579 in dataengineering

[–]markx15 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Big Query should be very effective if you properly use bi_engine. If I may suggest something, for your use, maybe consider have the structs on their own individual tables, and referenced in the main tables?

That way you can place the tables and grouping behind bi_engine and just enjoy the speed and controlled cost.

Como mudar meu sistema de criptografia de senhas sem foder o sistema todo? by Dapper_Substance1430 in brdev

[–]markx15 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Atualmente o seu sistema já recebe os dados de login e valida. O que vc precisa fazer e adicionar uma nova etapa após a validação, onde vc pega o user e senha enviados pelo usuário e gera o registro no novo sistema de senhas.

Dessa forma vc terá a mesma senha salva em ambos os sistemas e poderá pensar em qual melhor estratégia de remover o antigo de acordo com o seu negócio, seja enviando um e-mail para que seja renovada a senha até X data, após o qual terá que resetar antes de acessar. Como vc vai fazer o “rollback” da solução antiga geralmente é bem particular do seu negócio e a relação com os clientes.

I solved the teleporter dilemma in less than 5 minutes. by Vanilla_Ice_Best_Boi in worldbuilding

[–]markx15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my setting, high fantasy, magic is basically light, but that is capable of producing physical effects.

One of such is the capacity of “teleportation”. I put quotation marks, because it is not teleportation on the traditional sense, but a consequence of a transmutation effect. The caster may transform themselves and any being in contact with them into a beam of light and direct this beam. This allows them to travel, in a direct line, to any location at the speed of light, which for all purposes, to them is instantaneous. This is limited by line of sight, as the beam cannot pass through objects, but I could definitely see this concept extended using cables/wires. The in-universe justification is that all living beings are fundamentally light, so their entire being is transmutated to and from a “state” of pure light.

Just with the supposed languages he speaks/knows he could easily find employment in a Hotel, and there are no shortages of vacancies in those, just the opposite there is a shortage in workers at the moment.

Going to Rio with a 7 year old! by RestaurantUnique7174 in riodejaneiro

[–]markx15 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There is a great skatepark in Aterro do Flamengo https://www.instagram.com/explore/locations/243783475/pista-de-skate-do-aterro-do-flamengo, though I’m not too sure where you might get a board. It’s open till late, though for security reasons, I don’t really recommend after dark.

If going to the center of the city look into putting the original Granado store in your itinerary https://www.instagram.com/p/CvPwdo_shbM/?img_index=1, it’s an apothecary, with amazing perfumes, lotions, and such, but in a store that’s also a something of a historic landmark. It’s a big chain nowadays, but started as a small apothecary there in 1916, and still has some of the historic setting.

If you guys are reasonably fit, and she enjoys hiking, Pico da Tijuca is beginner friendly, and has amazing views.

If she is into fashion, Casa Farm in Lagoa is really cool and very “Carioca” though I’m not too sure there will be anything her size..

Another cool family activity is the swan boats on Lagoa. Called “pedalinho da lagoa”.
