    @ChrisTurk just remember DROP TABLE* is guaranteed to increase performance. Everything else is details.

    * For anyone who doesn't know, this is a joke. DROP TABLE will remove data. If you don't know SQL, do not listen to me or your DBA will get annoyed.

    So my ex called to see if he could get the boy early this weekend since he's out of school AGAIN...it's his weekend visitation. Now, I never try to keep him from seeing my kid as much as he wants to. But this time, I was kind of dancing a little jig so I could actually get some work done this afternoon. Does this make me a bad mom?? :ap:

    Hey do you know what else is a great disk saver?

    UPDATE reviews SET pros = REPLACE(pros, '"', '"')
    UPDATE reviews SET cons = REPLACE(pros, '"', '"')

    Run that a few times, in various orders, for various messed up character encodings and your disk usage drops dramatically!

    I just look at it as a future investment, since some of the earnings probably secretly go to him anyway.

    Just discovered my graphics card can force my 1366x768 monitor to do 1080p. I don't know what manner of sorcery this is but I'm impressed.

    Not actually 1080p though. Your monitor is just taking a 1080p source and forcing it back down. Usually carries a very ugly effect with it.
