Maybe go on a site like meetup or find local events you are interested in. Go out and do something with strangers: help a charity, go on an organized hike, take a language class, do some volunteering.

Just hanging at the park putting out the vibe likely won't get you where you want to be.

Pocket sand!

That's kind of his thing.

"They simply go through the whole table".. that's the problem. A full table scan should be avoided at all costs.

Learn: how to run and read an explain plan, indexes, keys, constraints, and query optimization (broadly you want to locate individual records as quickly as possible by using the most selective criteria).

You also need to learn basic schema design and to familiarize yourself with normalization.

Avoid processing huge result sets in your application. The database is good at answering questions about data it contains. It isn't just a big bucket to throw data into to retrieve later.

Thanks, PoopMonster, that's a good tip!

If you have a server running, I wouldn't buy more hardware. They have good example documentation for just such a configuration:

https://docs.pi-hole.net/docker/

If your server already has those ports bound (specifically the DNS port 53) you are going to have to get creative; otherwise it'll work well!

Worst case, a cheapo pi 3 will do the job. At one point I had it running on a pi zero, so hardware requirements are pretty low.

How about multi level parking garages teeming with algae?

I've always been one of the developers at work that people bring their Spring questions to. Usually I just change the logging level and read the errors. Quite often it will tell you what you need to do or give you a good hint at least.

Another "trick" is reading the official documentation. There is a lot of cruft out there, so go straight to the source.

It's really a great framework but they do give you many guns to shoot yourself in the foot with.

Teams crashed on me today too! It's great because it was a meeting with external people, so I had to sit in the waiting room in shame until one of them let me back in.

I think he's trying to say that their AI writes code good enough for Microsoft. Which is a message to other business leaders that your company too can benefit from copilot, just hand over your credit card!

Microsoft has absolutely gotten worse in the consumer space, but that isn't really their business these days.

Kotlin is one of my favorite languages

I didn't get it until I saw the comments, but she is a pretty lady.

I ran slackware in college with fluxbox. I thought I was pretty darn cool.

Spectrum had a policy like this at one point. They'd shut you off after a couple of instances of p2p that were reported. Afterwards, they directed you into a captive portal with some plausible deniability where you had to say "I don't know what happened, but it won't happen again".

Nowadays they just send you an email but don't restrict access.

Either way the Internet isn't too safe, protect yourself with at least a VPN.

How about a potluck, and the company can provide the paper plates and napkins?

Give it a week.

This reminds me of the people that say they are anti-antifa.

"Anti-propaganda aims to undermine the effectiveness of propaganda by exposing its manipulative tactics, providing alternative perspectives, or offering factual information to counter biased claims.

I'd pick my battles and try to address the most harmful lines of thought first. Like anything medical for example. Deprogramming is a popular topic online so there are some resources out there.

Best of luck, it'll be difficult until you find a foothold.

Congratulations on keeping up with it so far!

The problem isn't getting him back. The problem for the administration is what he says if and when he gets back.
