A: What is the point of tagging a question with both a parent and a child tag? I can provide an answer based on Stack Overflow experience. SO offered watches by tags. By using a general tag along with a more specific tag, users interested in [sql] will also get the question in their feed. While I could find this feature on Codidact, it makes sense to implement it in the futu... (more) |

Not sure, but shrink gets the database to 4GB and reindexing gets it to about ~5GB. (more) |

A: How can I can I reduce the size of a SQL Server database after being restored and massive embedded files stripped? One way to solve this is to shrink the database and reindex all tables to fix the indexes fragmentation: DBCC SHRINKDATABASE (TheDatabase); GO -- reindexing all tables to optimize performance after the DB shrink declare @TableSchema varchar(255) DECLARE @TableName varchar(255) D...

Question | — |
How can I can I reduce the size of a SQL Server database after being restored and massive embedded files stripped? My project has the following set up for the production and preproduction ("clone") environment. - Production is not accessible at all for the development team, only the preproduction database. - Preproduction database is restored each day, but a post-restore script is run to strip away sensitive ...

A: How to create a delayed loading indicator when working with ngrx/store? This heavily relies on this question which deals with another matter. In order to delay the loader, there must be a clear difference between the start of loaded from the caller's perspective and when the loader is actually displayed (i.e. `isLoading = true`). The following code does the trick: ... (more) |

Question | — |
How to create a delayed loading indicator when working with ngrx/store? I am working on an Angular application using ngrx and I have a loader state + reducer that is used to display a loader. However, very short AJAX calls cause a flicker and I need to delay showing the loaded to avoid being shown for very fast responses (e.g. < 300ms). My state is very simple: ... (more) |

@Lundin Automatic removal would be really nice, but current caching makes things really confusing as shown in my example. (more) |

Question | — |
Is there a way to add expiration for questions tags? Comments from this question reveal that there is some aggressive caching related to question tags (what tags are used for a question). Unfortunately, after changing tags for several questions I have realized that glitches are quite often. Example for [formula] tag: - search indicates 6 usages ... (more) |

On-topic now includes a quick introduction for those in a hurry (thanks to [this suggestion](https://software.codidact.com/questions/278648#answer-278666)). Having "a separate Meta post for every rule, and link to these canonical posts from the FAQ" is indeed possible, but leads to even more stuff to... (more) |

I understand what "questions asked not to learn, but to off-load work", but it might sound too vague for newbies. From my experience with SO, I know there is a large number of posts that show no effort or do not include any attempts. It is such a serious issue that I favor explicitly mentioning our e... (more) |

Answer | — |
A: What is our policy on tags? Thanks for raising this question. My answers to your questions: What type of tags will we allow? (Should specific tags like [UrlRewrite] be allowed?) I am not sure what is the best way to deal with this and I am waiting for community feedback. How many tags will we allow? (Should we delete a... (more) |

I agree with these points and I have used Stack Overflow as a model because they have the advantage of time and size. They have millions of questions asked over years and by now tags must be in a stable state. (more) |
