Yeah, that's kind of where I'm coming down, also. He'll be the only person using that monstrosity, and I'm not quite sure what he's using it for. As far as I know, he never needs both the count AND...

I can't believe I'm asking this, but here it is: We have a normalized database where somebody insists that it would be better if it were somewhat de-normalized. Everybody else thinks that's a bad...
-
At this rate, it'll just be another name for Court TV.
-
Yes, mostly. Do Events pauses the currently executing code and lets the system pump any messages that are queued up. There may be some paints, timer ticks, and whatnot, waiting to be dealt with....
-
Learning RegEx is kind of mind numbing. Better might be just to bookmark a good tutorial for reference. I'm on the wrong computer to share the one I was using, but this one looks pretty good, and...
-
That's funny for an odd reason. I've just spent a couple days dealing with an issue where "DS" has a very specific meaning (downstream, is probably where it came from, but it's much more complicated...

What I always say is that if you can avoid scraping from a website, then do so. If the site owners don't want you to have the data, then they wouldn't put it on a website. If they do want you to have...

That's just what we WANT you to think....

I have only known one Fritz in my life, and his last name didn't seem at all Germanic. Kind of English, really, but that doesn't mean much in the US. So many immigrants anglicized their names when...
-
I was wondering where the term came from. It looks like it has been around for over 100 years, and as so many of sayings that old are, the origin is unknown with any certainty.
-
That's not a telling remark. If you have a very public person, who darn near everybody has an opinion about, how can they ever get an impartial jury? Who is your pool of people? Those who voted for...

I AM the deep state, or at least a part of it. We are powerful the way a glacier is powerful: Slow, but effective if you wait long enough.
-
I was thinking of shorting it, too, but that was too active for me, at the moment. I still think it's a good short, because the more we learn, the worse the fundamentals look for that company. I'm...
-
That's an odd name. In the US, the term "on the fritz", means that the device isn't working right.
-
No, again. Biden is walking a difficult path. Parts of his base support Israel in whatever they do, while parts oppose Israel. He also doesn't get along with Netanyahu very well. He gains nothing...
-
Generally, that's done by joining the two tables, assuming you have fields that can join the table. You'd want to get away from *, if you do that, though * would still work after a fashion. The SQL...
-
No.
(but more seriously, they DID help Israel in the defense. If we're talking about what will happen in the future, I'm pretty sure that Biden won't help Israel with some kind of vengeance...
-
No, Biden said that we'd help defend Israel, but also said that we would not help attack Iran. I would say that's pretty reasonable from a couple different perspectives, both cynical and otherwise,...
-
I saw some trailer for that. It looks like it is tied to the Fallout video games. I played Fallout 4, and it was pretty good, but it wasn't just a nuclear aftermath, it was also a nuclear aftermath...
-
I have no idea how a jury trial can be fair in the case of a Trump trial. Can anybody be impartial about a guy who's whole purpose is division?
-
Don't do that. What you have there is a spin wait, or busy wait. It causes the CPU to run flat out while doing nothing. A few years back, I ran a test where I compared the power consumption on a...
-
I don't see what the problem is. For example, if you want to count down from 5 seconds, then the first interval will be less than 5. In fact, it will be 4.9. You'd only see the count down of 5.9,...
-
Trump doesn't want an immigration bill because he doesn't want any progress on immigration. That's his major position. If it got better in any way, or has the potential to get better, then he's lost...

I don't know how sleep works in VB6, but I would expect that it's the same across all languages in Windows. If that's the case, the sleep statement may not be doing what you are expecting. It will...
-
Frankly, as a person who enjoys the politics, I hope she does bring forwards that motion to vacate. It would provide for some delightful theatre. I have no idea which way things would go, though I'm...
-
Perhaps she could just go with "Impeach ___________"

If you can open that file in some other program, and the data is there, but when you open it with LabView, it is first there, then goes away upon closing, then it's the labview that is doing it. I...
-
That's actually what I meant, but after re-reading what I posted, one might think I meant that the two parties hate each other. I don't mean that. They are opponents, but the real fighting is...
-
Bwahahahaha!!!
You'd know!
-
Where are you putting that code?
-
It's even less clear why you aren't just using a timer. You have three of them built into the language that do what you are doing, and do so with far less code. The Sleep(100) is a good thing, as...
-
That sounds like you have the dynamic form shown non-modally, but the one behind it is shown modally. ShowDialog will show a form modally, Show is the non-modal variant. A modal form behaves exactly...

Remember, an app in your hand is like two birds in a bush....or something like that.

The loop is a downright bad idea. That's a spin wait, which will cause the processor to run as fast as it can and do nothing. It's a costly waste of time that will shorten the life of your computer...

He screwed up government, so it doesn't surprise me.
Our leading coalition in the house, has a majority, but also hates one another, and therefore they STILL can't pass anything.

Very active day today. Post Race dropped several threads down in short order.

By the people, and yes, it IS messy. It's very messy.
I knew it was the lettuce that outlasted Liz Truss, but when I think of Boris and his hair....lettuce does kind of come to mind. If he's a...

The Prius was sold more as a prestige car when it first came out. Sure, it got good fuel economy, and still does, but they were never meant to be cheap. These days, there's not that much point in...

TPS Report, or at least the cover sheet for one.
