Google today announced a new project to improve its mobile search results: factoring page speed into its search ranking. I forecast a bunch of really simple (and small) home pages soon

If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about?

At the dawn of the millennium, somewhere in the depths of a company contracted by the United States Navy, D. Richard Hipp designed SQLite so that you could finally stick a database inside an application. Ignore the fact he's trying to sell you a competitive product. I'm sure that's just a coincidence.

ORMs are members of that class of "solutions" that are designed to keep newbies from learning to do things the right way.

I have no dislike for writing SQL and stored procedures at all. SQL Management Studio has auto completion and it's pretty comfy. And if things don't work as you expect you can debug it inside SQL management studio too, good luck doing that with your ORM. Performance is great too.
For basic CRUD access I've written my own stored procedures that generate CRUD stored procedures (in SQL you can query table and column metadata and generate output based on that), so for 90% of the things I need I can generate it, and the other 10% I can generate it and tweak to my needs.

That's okay, when I first saw "ORM" in the title, this came to mind: Operational Risk Management[^],

Hmmm, I have to say that article was poor. It stated that there was a problem, detailed what the author thought the problem was and.... well, that was it. If he'd taken it just that one step further, he could have talked people through how to solve the problem of poor performance; for instance, he could have made it explicit that you shouldn't do multiple updates when they should be set based operations.

I completely agree with you.
In fact, there are ORMs that allow set based operations (the WHERE part of a LINQ select can very well be used in an update).

University of California, Berkeley neuroscientists have tracked the progress of a thought through the brain, showing clearly how the prefrontal cortex at the front of the brain coordinates activity to help us act in response to a perception. Do they explain where it disappears to when you walk into a room?

There is a theory that holds that the human brain is not the originator of intelligent thought but merely the first observer... I forget where I heard that...

Tech support scammers are apparently a thing, and they’re out to steal your money and personal data. Four of them were busted in the UK last year, and according to Dutch Police many of them operate in the Netherlands as well (via Dutch News) People really need to think, "Would Microsoft really care enough to call?"
The last one I got had such a thick Dutch accent too!

I'd like to turn the tables on these people to see how smart they actually are.
"Seriously? Credit cards been stolen and you need my info to verify? You're right, I can't get into my account it says to login I need any valid credit card number and expiration date to make sure I'm a legit customer...I know you called to help me out but could you help me out first so i can get you my number. I just need a valid credit card number from you to get through...thanks!

This means that if Firefox will add support for a new standard/feature starting tomorrow, if that standard/feature carries out communications between the browser and an external server, those communications must be carried out via HTTPS or the standard/feature will not work in Firefox. I'm sure that will help their popularity with the kids

"$260 billion ‘cryptocalypse’ as cryptos plunge 30 per cent amid fresh China, South Korea fears" news.com.au Jan 17: [^]Quote: THE cryptocurrency market has lost $US206 billion overnight in what traders are describing as a “cryptocalypse”, with bitcoin heading back towards its $US10,000 milestone first reached last November.
But it was smaller currencies including ripple, ethereum and bitcoin cash that were the hardest hit in the latest sell-off, which was sparked by fresh fears of a crackdown on virtual currencies by governments in South Korea and China.
«... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12

Well... $12k for a single bitcoin?? Who wouldn't think that was grossly inflated? 
There has to be crashes at some point, and I'm thinking much greater than the 30% as of recent is way overdue.
What's hot today will be forgotten tomorrow...

Why do the world’s smartest and busiest people find one hour a day for deliberate learning (the 5-hour rule), while others make excuses about how busy they are? "Call me irresponsible. Call me unreliable. Throw in undependable, too."
