Wouldn't a single application of a temp table be sufficient?[0]

On a technical level, it sounds near-trivial... Would need a very strong bizdev posture


Ahem, Ticketmaster owning the contracts to almost every venue.


That's built in to this approach.

Ticketmaster owns the contracts to every major venue.

Great... there's a hell of a lot of smaller venues, festivals, and other events that can be taken whilst Ticketmaster ignores you and you add significant value. By the time you worry about Ticketmaster or they worry about you, you already have momentum from artists, promoters and fans, and due to the bad press Ticketmaster gets through their tout-resell sites you also have political pressure.

Ticketmaster is built in to this plan. Their presence makes the grassroots stuff even more compelling as you don't have to boil the ocean, you figure out how to make it work on a small venue level, city level, and go for scale in the bottom layers.

Worst comes to worst, they're forced to consider purchasing you as you take all of the oxygen out of the system that feeds artists and promoters into them.


I'm sure they'll appeal again


They have the right to appeal in front of Europe's highest court, the ECJ. That decision is final.


Let them lose again then


been there, done that, got the tshirt and worthless equity ;)

these days, just spin up some disposable container/vm and tinker...


I'm happy with a high-refresh (>= 120) 1440p 27", both for gaming and coding


Which one do you use?


Not the person you asked, but I use an Acer XB273K GP 27" 4K as my middle/main screen. It does 120Hz just fine, is gsync too.

I also have 2 LG 27UD68-W 27" 4K screens, one on the left in portrait mode, the other to the right in landscape. These were cheap, work fine at 60Hz, but have an incredibly annoying bright standby light that flashes every 2 seconds. There's no way to switch it off, the light comes through the menu joystick on the bottom of the monitor so you can't cover it with electrical tape. And the whole back of the monitor is white plastic, so it glows/reflects some of the LED light. Do not recommend!!


Thanks!


A Lenovo Legion Y27-Q20, the stand is pretty big but otherwise a great monitor


Thanks!


Could your issue be related to this SF post?

I was happy with the old BigQuery UI and now they've finally moved it into the Cloud Console monstrosity :(


The simplest solution to storing people's names is a standard character field of reasonable length. Perhaps another one for "legal name" if needed. Maintaining a `tzdata` equivalent for names is a losing battle IMHO


Step 1 is "reduce dynamic content" but the bottom line is a plug for tens of KBs of JavaScript (per request) to track your users :)

I wonder if this is intentional trolling


It is meaning server-side dynamic content. That JS won't consume any noticeable CPU or RAM resource, it'll just be a static file pretty much always in memory, no templating engine in the web server process, no database hits, etc. All the significant processing load is either client-side or on another server (unless he is hosting his own analytics service), in fact the scripts are probably served by the analytics service servers too so even that miniscule impact is felt elsewhere.


The JS is not dynamic content as far as the WP server is concerned -- it's just a static JS file(s) that's served. The dynamic behavior it has happens (and impacts) the client (and whatever third party service does the tracking, e.g. GA).


3.3kb async loaded JavaScript actually. But the irony is not lost.
