Croatia - Hrvatska is another... BTW people in the Netherlands will say Holland as well... when the Dutch team play soccer, hup Holland (come on/let's go Holland) is a common chant (there are even songs with that name)
two not one... Zuid Holland and Noord Holland
Some of mine
Was testing code and pushed a file to FTP 2 days early... vendor picked up, processed file.. the people who signed up in the next 2 days were in the file pushed later... but the vendor already processed the earlier file so they didn't get their metro cards that month
Somehow managed to rebalance underlying components for a Trendpilot ETF monthly instead of quarterly... daily audit that compares the values on NYSE vs in our DB caught it.. lucky for me there was no money in it yet
dropped a table once at lunch time right before taking a bite of my sandwich... did restore table within 10 minutes , didn't eat lunch that day ... lost appetite...
In ETL tool hardcoded something to test.... left it there when running for real
Most databases will use all the cores you can throw at it :-)
Not out of the ordinary to see a SQL Server query using 20+ cores for a query with a parallelized plan
so?.. still not equal to anything, two unknowns are not equal
if null = null
print 'true'
else
print 'false'
Same in SQL Server.. this is documented behavior
Also a null is no equal to anything.. not even another null
This will print false in SQL Server
if null = null
print 'true'
else
print 'false'
Interestingly in dutch oranje is the color but sinaasappel is the name of fruit in dutch.

Cooking is art, baking is science.
If you get the measurements wrong, your end product will be 'wrong'
Cooking gives you ways to fix your mistakes.. (add water, cook it more, add spices etc etc)

How about copying a $100 bill?
I have 3 kids in middle and high school in West Windsor NJ. The school gives each student a chromebook or you can bring your own (I believe BYOD that is only allowed in high school).. everything is done through google classroom + printed handouts....
If you are a DB developer, you can have a machine now that will have close to the number of cores on you prod/staging instance. A DB will use all cores available unless you restrict it
