Answer A: In MySQL, is it possible to disable triggers for only certain queries or users?
First of all, it seems that Mysql does not allow to disable triggers. One way would be to set a session variable which can be checked in each trigger. This still incurs some overhead (trigger is still fired for each record), but the actual trigger functionality is very small.

Answer A: In a stored procedure, is it possible to get the total number or rows updated by different statements?
One rather complicated way to get what you want (may be extended to multiple calls of statements and/or procedures) is through usage of MySQL Row-Based Binary Logs as explained here. This allows for MYSQL to generate logs with affected rows that will be output like: [Transaction total : 10 ...

Answer A: How to perform LINQ joins with multiple fields in a single join?
The quickest way is to make an equal join on two anonymous objects: var result = from x in entity join y in entity2 on new { x.field1, x.field2 } equals new { y.field1, y.field2 } Another way is combine the styles of writing the LINQ statements for more flexibility: ...

Question Strategy to migrate meaningful content from Stack Overflow
I was thinking about meaningful content that can be migrated (+ improved) from Stack Overflow. These categories pop into my mind: - closed questions: we know Stack Overflow is very picky when it comes to some matters ("primarily opinion based") and some questions are easily closed despite being ve...

Answer A: Getting rid of "company tags" early on
I agree that company name tags should not be used, since tag can point to a product, framework etc. and that tag description includes the information about the owner of the product. Of course, for the rare cases when the product name includes the company name or for disambiguation reasons (cannot ...

Note: This is basically a question from Stack Overflow that was closed for a very long period of time and I fear it might get closed again as primarily opinion based.

Comment Post #277551 @Lundin - I think the wrap can be achieved by using `overflow-wrap: break-word;` or similar. You will get the text displayed on multiple lines, but no actual line breaks are there (copy-pasting it in a text editor will get a single line). A similar behaviour is happening while editing code with long ...
