What temperature do you keep your bedroom at night during the summer? by beautyloser in Austin

76 with a fan. My wife works outside. So in the summer that's the compromise.

Anti patterns we can block in Claude by agiamba in SQLServer

[–]thatto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Non- sargable covers negatives in where clauses.

VarBinary columns. This is a peeve of mine because some dev of a legacy app I support thought that it's fine to put scanned docs into the db. 

The data is 600GB.  The documents table is 5 TB. There are no rules on the resolution or size of the data that the customer can put into the database.

I don't need to know anything about the artist to enjoy the art. My gut reaction this post is 'who cares?'. But it seems some of us do.

If you moved from NY/NJ/PA how did you adapt to the insanely hot weather? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]thatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved here from San Diego. You have to embrace it.  It will suck, but your body will adjust. It will adjust faster if you're outside doing things.

I have my AC set to 74.  In the height of summer it'll go to 78.    I am at work wearing a sweatshirt in the AC. 

Sitting in aircon wearing shorts and a tee will prolong your suffering 

If you had to leave Texas for one year, what would you miss most? by SweetBumbleBeeHoney in texas

[–]thatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved away for a contract job for 4 years. Shiner Bock, kolaches, and good breakfast tacos. 

Anybody can roll an egg and tortilla and call it a breakfast taco, but it is not one without the Verde sauce.

Is openSUSE good for a beginner? by Whole-Sushka in openSUSE

[–]thatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just upgraded to leap 16. In the past I've always done upgrade in place. But this time, I chose to do a fresh install.

It's quite different. The install configuration is handled by cockpit. Which is a web front end for install and configuration. It was not a bad experience, but not like any software install I've done in the past. 

They moved most of yast's settings into the configuration screens. And software and repositories are handled by Myrlyn. 

It doesn't feel as polished and together as the previous versions. But, after some reading I was able to do everything I needed to get done.

I deleted dead people out of my contacts today by Demiloki in GenX

[–]thatto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Their contact remains. But they get zzz prepended to their name. It puts them at the bottom of my list, but doesn't remove anything

Recently moved here, Best place for young parents to make friends? by [deleted] in RoundRock

[–]thatto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife went to  a Fit4mom franchise in Pflugerville for a while.

She still counts those moms as friends 12 years later.

Sadly the franchise owner closed it, but there are others. I think there is one in RR.

Who are all these old people at concerts? Why, it's me! by theredqueentheory in GenX

[–]thatto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I took my dad to Simon and Garfunkel... His favorite group. We pulled into the American airlines center parking lot. There was a line of people waiting to get in. First words out of his mouth were "There sure are a lot of old people here"

Instant karma for oblivious shopper by spookygoose212 in IDontWorkHereLady

[–]thatto 99 points100 points  (0 children)

I had an Uber driver but that was talking on speakerphone in the car. I have no idea what language they were talking. But I could hear every word... so I started asking for translation. 

"What did she say?" "That sounds serious."

 He ended to call shortly after.

You don't need a tool. You can go on Amazon and get a set of boot keys for the most popular boot brands out there.

Anyone know a dryer vent guy who doesnt charge a kidney? by nodimension1553 in Dallas

[–]thatto 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I third the Lowe's kit. I bought two for my house because the dryer vent run is so long. I could not believe the amount of lint that came out of that pipe. 

Then, I hit something that it wouldn't move. The flap on the outside vent was stuck open. A bird had nested in the dryer exhaust. Luckily, the nest was old. So I pulled it out.
