@PaulWhite Hi, Are you around here?
I will be in about half an hour
@PaulWhite I can wait, I am a patient man. :)
@TomV Yes. I'm hoping that will be a good thing.

@ConcernedOfTunbridgeWells Good morning. I was wondering how you were getting along
14:22
@PaulWhite looked like a self-answer
@Kermit Right. Just letting you know in case you had some boom to add.
I'm pretty boomed out
Oh dear. Sorry to hear that.
Thank you for your sympathy

Q: Community has 5 rep?

ErikI just noticed that the Community user has 5 rep instead of their normal 1 rep. Is this some weird bug or normal/expected behavior? If it is normal then what is the reason to give Community more rep on Meta. Note that Community only has one rep on our main site and on Meta.SE.

Curious.

Two first questions, one posted very soon after the other, and the posters' names are bdsl and bdem – that's curious as well.

Q: Opening mysql connection is sometimes very slow

bdemI have a weird issue with a an older Mysql server (v5.0.45) and a Java application. From time to time getting a connection from the database takes 7 seconds, 15 seconds, 30 seconds etc (most of them are 15 seconds) or sometimes timeout. This happens just from time to time. I don't see a pattern...

Q: Is it ever good practice to use a distinct database account for each user of an application?

bdslThe applications I'm used to are server based and use one database account for many users, with the application code controlling what the user can do, or single-user. Are there any successful complex business applications where each person needs their own database account, and the database serve...

I really miss getting ot hang out in here.

@AndriyM Coincidence.
@Zane We miss you too.
@MichaelGreen Very interesting. I think that using slang increases likeability between people who shares common backgrounds in other languages as well. The video is very funny: “I'll head back to the missus for din dins with the fam and watch some soapies on the telly...”

@billinkc My sister has come to take a shift at minding me, although I'm substantially on the mend. We had a nice sunny day, so drove to Chiddingstone, Tunbridge Wells via back roads and went to a nice kitchen shop (I could spend so much money in there), then down the A26 to Lewes and along the south coast to Brighton. Feeling a bit tired after that little escapade, but definitely better than a few weeks ago.
@billinkc Haven't seen one in the flesh but it's not outside the bounds of possibility.

And is there a limit on result sets? — ypercubeᵀᴹ 1 min ago
@ypercubeᵀᴹ That's not a term I'm really familiar with.
I assumed it meant the result returned by a select query, so 4096.
Or were you asking about the maximum number of rows?
@PaulWhite Thanks, not sure I'll post this weekend since busy, surely next week, I'll add an additional comment though
@TomV Thanks. I just happened to notice the anonymous edit. Not sure if he'll get his account issues resolved or not.
Being cookie-based, he might simply have been on a different device.
19:23
@PaulWhite I understood it as the maximum number of result sets returned by a single batch (or stored procedure)
@AndriyM Goodness only knows. Separate results? I don't think there's a limit on that.
Nothing good ever comes from getting close to limits anyway.
I mean, seriously, a table with 30,000 columns. Why?
thinking...
EAV apparently.
19:43
Nope, can't think of anything. Read briefly about wide tables and still have no idea how it can really be practical.
Could just be because it's Friday night
@PaulWhite you understood correctly. srutzky used the term in his answer.
20:30
@PaulWhite Maybe that was the reason I wasn't pinged, the anonymous edit
