Decided to add to the B.E. it's been a while... From Run of the Mill Publick House (Saco, ME) Not Your Mama's Meatloaf 13.00 We stuff our home-made meatloaf with spinach and cheddar, then wrap it with applewood smoked bacon. Smothered in home-made gravy, served with our garlic smashed potatoes and veggies. Meatloaf wrapped…

Password advice - Experts rarely are, post-its, scotch tape and scrap paper undo security! Yup... in the end we deal with humans. Brad the game - Awesome. Good stuff sir! sqlrockstar​

Thank you mrs.alterego​

Open Source Motorcycle - Can a Mercedes knock off be all that far behind..... hmmm... 2038 - Retirement will have it's rewards!!!! Sorry... gonna miss this one! John Deere - Like our cars, tractors are the next victim to on board systems.... forcing people to do what they need to do to keep their heads above water. Farming…

I am not sure you can ever get to 100%/100%. Certain industries (financial) are getting pushed to encrypt everything, but the practicality of that is just not totally there yet. That said, the next cottage industry will be encryption hacks..... like sharks following a blood trail....

Nice stuff.... sounds like you need to come up with a giant thank you because "I owe you"... idea.

We do restrict access and have all kinds of filtering, but trying to stay one step ahead of these guys is a challenge.... I think social media apps like Facebook have desensitized users thinking that "everything is real".... Thanks pseudocyber‌ for that tool... will install at home...

It's been three years since I had to put my cat and buddy Oreo down. He would crawl up on my desk and then slowly try to lift my fingers away from the keyboard because he wanted to be petted. Most times he would just walk in front of my line of vision and stand there, looking for attention. If I was working from home and…

Great points... Love the graph!! I learned early on... automate... automate...automate..... 1. Because I hate repeat tasks. 2. I hate manually doing anything! 3. we get busy and distracted on other things and forget....

Great points.... # 6 and # 10 are too often overlooked.

Outstanding as always sqlrockstar​!!! You provide "Must Read" material on Wednesdays!!! Thank you!

adatole​ this is really great stuff... Thanks for putting this together... and getting some extra brain cells back to work.

Outstanding!!! Bacon makes the world a better place. rschroeder​ Great tribute to sqlrockstar​

Great point Jfrazier​!!! Optimization is most definitely not a set it and forget it process. The more we do, the more we find.... I've always likened it to maintaining an old car, or in my case an old house. You are never done, and at times what is need to be done is downright suprising. Outstanding article kong.yang​...…

@"rschroeder" very nice Rick... love it

Learned the hard way to annotate when I got a call three years after I left a company and had someone ask about a piece of "temporary" code I wrote that had an original shelf life of 4-6 months asking why I did something the way I did. (answered my former co-worker politely and then reminded them it was intended to be a…

Thank you!! works just fine now!

wow... some old memories there!!!!

Dez​ outstanding points. Too often we concentrate on the external threat and ignore potential internal ones. ScottRich​ we are a small shop as well.. but I am passing along as I type...

Animal!!!!! Animal!!!!

Well played!!!

Terrific idea... any way we could donate our points to help SW in their efforts?

Data is the currency of the 21st century. The greater the value, the higher the price on the legitimate and illegitimate markets. Collection of data is not a game for the faint of heart. He who has the most wins.... and then controls the market. The profitability potential is mind blowing. If you care about your privacy...…

Elizabeth Warren and Silicon Valley - As a former resident of Massachusetts, I can tell you she will always win because of her liberal politics, but outside Boston/Cambridge and other progressive areas, her politics and ideas area pretty much met with a meh! or a pronounced head scratch at the least. In this case she has…

A great day for Pats Nation! In a league designed for parity they continue to win, win and win.

they were....and reported to me on a scheduled basis... and yes... there are parts of the story... that are better told over adult beverages...

rschroeder​ I am guilty as well... I will add one more... I could fill a museum with the various technology, parts and manuals I've used over time.
