@Charlieface It's all actually .NET objects, just created and methods invoked in Powershell so that it can be one script that can be tweaked on site as necessary.

Gold nail polish on the thumbnail ? I see it

Man, I h8 the HOLDLOCK hint synonym for SERIALIZABLE.

Erik Darling

3:01 AM

@PaulWhite it's sort of like unalived being a synonym for killed

Paul White

If it needed to exist at all, it would be a synonym for REPEATABLEREAD

Erik Darling

repeatable read is nearly as useless as read committed

also ran isolation levels

mustaccio

REALPETEALBREAD

Erik Darling

i want some realpeatydrinks

mustaccio

they don't lead to isolation at all, no they don't

though perhaps they do sometimes; depends on the repetition count i guess

Erik Darling

3:08 AM

hah

they don't start off that way

i wonder if paul has linked his phone yet

speaking of isolation levels

Paul White

3:55 AM

no!

@ErikDarling Well, it's useful for demos where you want to hold a lock

My pattern turns into an immortal frog here - you have to squint a bit, but it's really cool (and no, I haven't consumed psychodelics this morning...)!

Zikato

So is it a leftover from yesterday's psychedelics?

Vérace

:-)

I wish!

hey look it's a post about not posting with a promise to post more.

Paul White

articles > tweets > memes

scrabble > wordle > frogs

Erik Darling

1:57 PM

i think the music one is a little off (singles have existed for ages), but yeah all the scrolly swipey stuff seems accurate

Paul White

yep, posted for the vibe, not necessarily all the details

quite a clever observation though, I thought

it was the sport one that pulled me in

Erik Darling

i do enjoy writing letters

wish more people liked exchanging them

Paul White

indeed

Erik Darling

most of the time you write a letter and someone emails to say they got it

or worse, tag you in a photo of it on some social media

Paul White

one rarely even receives an email that could have been a letter

i.e. the sort of letter people used to thoughtfully compose

choose the right paper & pen, best handwriting, nice envelope & stamp

content worth reading more than once

I suppose people had more time back then

The music point, as I took it anyway, is that people rarely listen to whole albums

Yes, singles were a thing, but it involved more conscious effort than playing individual tracks from a library of albums stored on some digital device

'people' at large, excluding present company

other people

Erik Darling

2:08 PM

oh sure

gelly roll pens are great for letter writing

Paul White

really tough to find a really good pen

even the gel ones aren't created equally

fountain pens were high risk/reward

I wonder how many people would even recognise blotting paper

I'm not about to suggest farming your own geese to produce the perfect quill

But a really nice manual pen is a beautiful thing

Time was when people would admire the pen clipped in your top pocket as they boarded an aircraft

I remember being quite fond of an ink cartridge pen I had once, particularly with jet black ink

Of course, I lost it

Zikato

@PaulWhite Should be called "The fall of attention span" instead

Paul White

yeah

@PaulWhite they are. i wish i wrote enough to invest in one. i'd feel bad for how much it'd sit around idle.

perhaps when i get hit by the lottery i'll finally take a calligraphy course

It's probably bad that I use the Pilot Frixion erasable gel pens and the Rocketbook pads and notebooks and end up erasing everything in the notepad eventually...

Erik Darling

7:03 PM

i'm not entirely sure what that sentence means

but it sounds bad?

Cade Roux

10:24 PM

It's just I have a pen, but never keep anything I've written because the paper is always re-used
