Thanks. I checked and dbeaver can indeed store columns ordering as a filtered view. Seems like a bit overcomplicated to me but I guess I've been spoiled with mysql in which the ordering is trivial.

Reordering Columns in PostgreSQL

This is kind of a stupid question but I see lot of people here recommend postgresql so I decided to give it a try.I stumbled upon the fact that it's not possible to rearrange columns ordering.Is this not too much of a constraint ? I mean what's the workaround for eg for the analysts using it daily ? Columns just pile at the end of every table without any consistency ?Sorry for the broken...

Brilliant tool ! I started to put all my notes there. However I cannot figure out how to display a note at the bottom of the screen (below another one as in the featured page ?)
In France you could probably start a revolution in suggesting that the students should pay for university.

French guy here. I think a lot of comments miss the point of the new tax : Some US tech companies use fake transfer prices to avoid paying income taxes in France. Eg Irish facebook subsidary owns the Facebook brand for Europe and charges other subsidiaries for using it. The French Facebook subsididary was charged so much in past years that it didnt declare any benefits in France. This is fraud. But this is fraud at EU level and EU is not yet organized to face it. So French government is taking the lead and expects other countries to follow soon (very likely). You have to understand that French companies and French taxpayers a getting reasonnably upset for paying high taxes when some US companies dont.

However the situation is much better now. It was very common for us French people to discover a huge roaming bill after a trip in another European country. At least roaming cost are becoming predictable

Static typing is an excellent new for PHP developers. However I wonder if Hack has an some kind of included framework in it or if it's compatible with cake PHP, symfony, laravel, etc.
Re:Why Warren Buffett is wrong on Bitcoin on Tuesday March 18, 2014 @02:39PM (#7423997)
In my opinion a very partial reaction on Buffett's analysis. Bitcoin's value is nowaday more related to speculation than to what you can buy with it. This is true whatever the value of the technology behind and that's probably Buffett's point.

I think that mentionning the huge appreciation of the bitcoin in 2013 doesn't really make the currency more trustful. I would say it's the contrary.
