Actually, if you read /r/keto they'll tell you to "keep calm and keto on" - I lost 20kg on keto, and plateaued many times doing that. Just keep doing what you're doing, your body will adjust and adapt and it'll go down again. It's common. Drink a lot of water. I hopped off Keto for a bit for Ch

Hey all, What do we think of the Surface Studio? I've long said that it'll be great when we have that sort of touch interface directly in front of us to manipulate... My thinking is it'd be more powerful if instead of moving from the tilted position to vertical, if you had one or more screens ve

Document/Object DBs are kind of the solution for that, however, they still need to be managed. Grow a beard and become "full-stack". On Fri, Sep 16, 2016 at 11:56 AM, Greg Keogh wrote: > The people who think that ORMs are a good idea have a code-centric view of >> the world. >> > > Stored procs

I haven't had significant problems that I haven't been able to fix. That said, I think they're marking the current as Stable and just working on features of EF Core now, which isn't as complete by far yet. On Fri, Sep 16, 2016 at 10:40 AM, Craig van Nieuwkerk wrote: > Using something like PetaP

It happens. We were lucky to get tickets this year, and it was only allowing 1 per login - but a few of my team got them. The thing is, I can understand the organisers not wanting to grow it bigger, and even if they had more rooms/more sessions - that would require more management, and the risk t

Obviously the solution is to make VPN technology illegal - can't have people circumventing it. On Fri, Mar 27, 2015 at 12:44 PM, Greg Keogh wrote: > So the bill has passed, opposed by everyone but the two major parties. Oh > well, it's not all bad, as at least it was nice to see Libs and Labs >

One alternative that I haven't looked into much at all, so take this with a grain of salt - is to have anything identifying on a local network, firewalled, and accessible via a site-to-site VPN connection to an Azure hosted server. Like I said, I haven't looked at what an implementation would take

You could map the string for the months to a string in your class, and on the setter, do the logic to put it into the list, and on the getter make it back into the correctly ordered string? On Mon, May 31, 2010 at 2:02 PM, James Chapman-Smith wrote: > Hi Clint, > > > > You can easily use partia
