Why am I not just using a Pivot Table / Database?
a) I've never ever used either before. And I don't have time to learn how before this project needs to actually be finished.
b) The final output is going to be a report for the Company Directors. As such, the flexibility of choosing which bit...
Generic code review remark: Keeping your identifiers in English is making things easier if there is any chance of your code being seen by other people (either because your company is hiring abroad, your project might be open source some day, or you intend to post questions on SO). Didn't really matter in this case, but I know I get tired of second-guessing the meaning of localized identifiers really quick. ;-) — DevSolar16 secs ago

The purpose of this code is to search the entire database for duplicate records and produce a script that a user could then run to delete all of the duplicates.
The stored procedure takes the following parameters:

Working through CodeEval's Interrupted Bubble Sort, I have a working algorithm, but there's a speed issue. I'm trying to do this with Ruby and I keep getting an error that it's timing out after 10 seconds. I'm not sure what else I could be doing here to speed things up, here's the code:

I almost exclusively play hardcore mode, and I much prefer it. The only downside, as I see it, is that lagging out or disconnecting may kill you (I'm fine with any other kind of death).

User posts off-topic question receiving downvotes, even with answers, and rants on Meta about said closure and downvotes. This can happen on pretty much any site.
@bazola I don't find that hard. We're probably not as nice as some months ago. On the other hand, some people got bored of always posting the same comments and there are always more and more questions to handle. It's not that surprising.
We can only be super nice regarding new questions for so long. Eventually, popularity will increase and we will have to find a balance between courtesy and quality control. As long as we're not wronging any users, then there shouldn't be a problem. Maintaining quality control will almost always cause frustration like this.
If Jamal wasn't there, the quality of CR wouldn't be so high. That said, it does not always prevent him from making errors. But that's ok, he probably salvaged so many questions...
Git might not be able to manually merge the changes for you, and you both might have to spend time together understanding how to incorporate both of your changes. That said, there should probably be some process in place to prevent this situation where one person is refactoring code that is being actively developed by another person; it does not sound like it is making efficient use of your team. This would more effectively be done during a code review phase. — mmccaff46 secs ago
@StackExchange left some comments there, but I'd encourage the community to at least listen to the complaint. I'm not saying he's right, but we should listen.
If the complaint is about his question, then he can talk about that. Bringing up the site in general and finding things to pick at won't help. The only example link was for this very question.
Agreed, but we don't often hear from the silent majority, we should at least hear what they have to say. I admit that I'm surprised about the "poor experience" though.
@Heslacher Haha, no, but wouldn't it be fantastic if it that was the issue?
When I connect locally, I use the server computer's IP directly, (IPv4 and IPv6 both work).
When I try to connect online I use my public IP (Which to my understanding connects to my router, which is set up to port forward it to my server computer).
I want to check a text for consecutive repeating characters. For example, with a minimum of 3 consecutive char's, this should match:
Okeee

This should not match:
No not okee, oh no

Speaking as somebody who joined CR very recently and didn't do a great job finding out all the rules beforehand, I've found the community to be very welcoming.
We have relatively few rules, and as a result we are quite strict about enforcing them.
The code must be your own
The question must ...
@Golden_flash: I think the issue with competitive programming is the horrific coding styles used. Most of the code is barely readable, loaded with idiotic macros and single-character variable names. Write-only code that wouldn't pass the simplest code review in the real world. — Blastfurnace48 secs ago

Once all the controllers and directives have been accounted for, then the first function that runs in th...

After reading this thread I am wondering whether OP is able to formulate a point without insulting the person he is making it at or at least insinuating something derogatory about their intelligence.
if this is "not the first time" he has had an argument like this, and then after throwing all of the shade he has at everyone tries to 'side with the voice of reason' even though he is the one doing the name-calling, I question his value as a member on this stackexchange
CR is absolutely the most welcoming online community I have ever been a part of - and that includes EVE. If someone doesn't fit, I would say they are probably the issue
His meta question does not seem to be wanting to discuss a valid point that is appropriate to the exchange as a whole but comes across as a rant from someone who feels their question was closed unjustly.
Indeed, this is backed up by the fact he mentions that his question was "not a real question" but was formulated to "prove his point" (whatever that may be) about "this sitd and a few others"
Well, again, read the title of the question. Don't understand? - look up the reference, which happens to be a CS textbook. But this my question, in general, has very little to do with my question on the CR site. That other question was specifically crafted to prove my point after repeatedly encountering the unproductive behavior, typical for this SE site and very few others from the same family. — wvxvw15 mins ago
And @Zak, I applaud you on having the maturity to not comment on a discussion that you feel you are too emotionally involved in. Not many could do that (including myself)
but the way it feels so far is "I deliberately wrote a question in a superior, difficult to understand part of the programming spectrum, conforming to my own ideals of what and how programmers should talk and communicate, in a way that I felt was likely to result in the uninformed masses downvoting and closing it. so that I could point out their lack of sophistication
@DanPantry believe me, I've come close to posting my comments several times now, but I can't seem to write one without it being needlessly personal and pejorative
Nice rant. My turn now.
"Perfectly on topic"

@Mat'sMug Yes, but to me it reads like the first part of your answer is in a non-mod style and the latter part in a mod style, but may just be my interpretation
I hardly consider talking in a public chat room that anyone can join 'talking behind his back'
Rather, I would figure inviting him to join chat to a room full of people who he has just slung mud at on meta might not be the wisest course of action.
Especially as @Mat'sMug said, he would need to calm down first.
I do not intend to talk about him negatively behind his back. I do not hold anything against him personally, only the discussion he has put on meta (and the way he has conducted himself).
