I would have a separation between what is on-topic / offtopic and what is worth upvoting or downvoting. Thus for the specific case of questions showing no research, but are on-topic, I would consi...
Is there any way where I can modify the original server code so that it accepts any port number instead of the predefined one (i.e., port number 8989)? Port number will be entered in the command li...
struct listNode{ char data; struct listNode *nextPtr }; Computer, when I tell you that any region of memory is a struct called listNode, that means that the region of memory contains ...
It works fine for me. Here's a minimal working example: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <body> <form> <input type="text" name="field" id="field" value="old value"> <i...
I have added some input to an input field element this way: const inputFiled = document.querySelector("#example"); inputField.value = "X"; I want to fire a change event for that field right af...
I have a website with a search box. Running search queries in that search box creates frontend/dynamic search result webpages in which search results based on a search query can appear. Let's ass...
Before I publish a new webpage in my website (in the content management system itself), I zoom in from say 100% zooming to 500% zooming and then re-read it, as a nice way to check for typos. The p...
An alternative to creating a userscript is to use a bookmarklet. This is a bookmark that contains an executable snippet of Javascript code. When you click on it, that code will get executed in th...
LazyCache provides CachingService as a concrete implementation of the IAppCache. When unit testing simply instantiate the tested service using CachingService: var testInstance = new FooService(ne...
Sometimes I will need to temporarily lock out other MySQL users when I am making large structure changes and want to make sure that nobody else is inputting or changing the data. The other use case...
If I have some text in a cell, how can I find the number of times another piece of text appears in it? For example, suppose A1 contains Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.. pick occurs 2...
A presently unanswered question on Stack Overflow asks: Does there exist a popcount function in libreoffice calc? and clarifies that "I often use BASE(A1;2;8) to show a number in binary".
As a person with no significant background in mathematics and computer science I thought that concatenation and AND are logically identical if not very similar because both add something to somethi...

The issue with using two separate databases is you need to: store both access strings back up both databases manage both databases keep both databases patched By the time you have done that, th...
The worst code I ever saw was when I was called in to finish the work of a consultant who had left the company for greener pastures. The feature had been in development for 4 months, and was, accor...
I have a couple of 3d example projects in gcode for my printer but the printer bed has a couple of bumps in the center (where things are printed by default) and in order to print the objects I woul...
I'm trying to set up a simple test project, to unit test a change I'm working on. The change is to a file inside some existing project. I've tried to set up the includes as the original has it, but...
Migrations are applied during the application startup (initialization) only when the application is not accessible yet. One way to go is to leave the existing user as it is and define a designated ...
I need to drop all of the stored procedures from my MySQL database before I recreate them. How can I do so?
This answers your questions, not what I suspect to be real issue. According to the specifications a VARCHAR(100) will need actual data stored length + 1. So, the actual size would have mattered if...
I'll readily admit I'm not too familiar with MySQL specifically, but personally, I would try to avoid listing all the primary key values in an ad-hoc query. What I would rather do personally is to...

I use CentOS with Bash and I would like to download, execute and delete the executed downloaded file (running a remote/cloud script locally). I often prefer to load my own shell scripts from my ow...
I host my website on a PaaS-modeled, shared hosting environment by SiteGround which is quite a well known hosting company with (as I believe) well-venerated email servers. I am trying to create ...
