    For anyone into aircraft, the Reno air races are on right now. I was supposed to go this weekend but it’s super smokey in Reno so we’re sitting it out. However, there’s a live stream and an FA-18 is about to do a demo! https://youtu.be/b4aYb7jTNjc

    whoa that is some serious smoke, I can't believe they still want to fly in that

    Who needs StackOverflow when you have Twitter?
    Aaron Parecki
    my problem was I couldn't even figure out how to ask this with words so I wasn't sure what to search for!

    Select extract(date from date), sum(success) success, sum(if(success = 0, 1, 0)) fail from tbl group by 1 order by 1
    Aaron Parecki
    Nice!

    Apparently EXTRACT(DATE FROM col) doesn't exist in MySQL, but DATE(col) works instead. So:

    SELECT DATE(date) AS date, SUM(success) AS success, SUM(IF(success, 0, 1)) AS fail
    FROM results GROUP by 1 ORDER BY 1 DESC;

    Any clever SQL people out there? Given the raw data on the left, (a table of test results) how do I write a SQL query to give me the results on the right, (the results grouped by date as well as grouped by result)?
    Aaron Parecki
    That was fast, we have a winner!

    SELECT `date`, SUM(IF(success, 1, 0)) AS `success`, SUM(IF(success, 0, 1)) AS `fail`
    FROM `results` GROUP BY `date`

    something like this or similar (untested)?:

    SELECT `date`, SUM(IF(success, 1, 0)) AS `success`, SUM(IF(success, 0, 1)) AS `fail` FROM t GROUP BY `date`
    Aaron Parecki
    you win! That's brilliant, I didn't even think about using an `IF`!

    UPDATE: As expected, @PBOTinfo has shared a revised proposal with the neighborhood group. Looks like they’re willing to add one speed bump and a concrete barricade/planter. We’ve added the new plan graphic to our story https://bikeportland.org/2022/09/15/eliot-residents-meet-pbot-in-the-street-to-air-grievances-and-urge-more-traffic-calming-363545

    This is better, but I'm still concerned about the sharp right turn a bike will have to make to get on to the 7th bike lane when going west on Tillamook. How can I give them this feedback?

    I changed credit cards and they lowered my monthly price to 39.99 for the bundle.
    Aaron Parecki
    yeah I threatened to cancel last year and they lowered it to to $29 for the year or something but I am tired of playing that game and really have only been using Lightroom lately anyway. I switched to the Lightroom-only plan for $9.99

    This reminds me of an experiment I did back in the early days of Twitter when you could use the search API to find literally every tweet.

    I ran this a few years in a row, and by 2010 traffic had picked up enough that I was finally hitting rate limits.

    Wow no I was wrong, it's stupider than that: the bot apparently runs twitter searches for "remote work and remote jobs" and replies even to people who didn't tag it!

    Yeah that bot is getting absolutely hammered right now https://twitter.com/switchs03468828/status/1570499883894996993
    Aaron Parecki
    For those of us who have not followed this as closely, what is the bot *supposed* to reply back with? As in what did the company intend the bot to respond with? Also why do all the prompts start with "When it comes to remote work and remote jobs"? Is that part of tricking it?

    I bought it for live monitoring, with all the struggles I’ve had getting audio to the optimum levels. Then realized it has a plugin for Resolve, and 🤯

    Adding this @tcelectronic CLARITY M STEREO hardware to my Resolve setup has made balancing audio so much easier. It’s amazing to see your audio levels so clearly.
    Aaron Parecki
    what that's so cool, I need one!

    Is installing a Unifi Door Access system for my front door overkill? Yes.

    Do I want to do it anyway? Absolutely.
    Aaron Parecki
    It seems like with a fail-secure electronic door strike, you could put a regular doorknob with a physical key as a backup in case the power goes out or the whole system goes down, and it'll work like a regular door in that case.

    If you think about it, since most people have to get their eyes checked every few years. Aren't glasses/contacts just a subscription service for sight?

    LOL! We moved so I don't live there any more!
    BUT I keep a page of "straight text" for when I need to copy and paste into forms!

    Funny to hear from you! I was thinking about Indy web this morning and how much autonomy you have been teaching for a decade!
    Aaron Parecki
    It's a little terrifying that it's been that long tbh! Still living and breathing it though, including how I'm writing this post!
