  • It seems like people aren’t reading the article and just downvoting.

    So here’s another snippet from the article which shows you the kid needs serious help:

    Kurtaj leaked 90 videos of GTA VI gameplay footage last September while out on bail for hacking Nvidia and British telecom provider BT / EE. Although he stayed at a hotel under police protection during this time, Kurtaj still managed to carry out an attack on Rockstar Games by using the room’s included Amazon Fire Stick and a “newly purchased smart phone, keyboard and mouse,” according to a separate BBC report. Kurtaj was arrested for the final time following the incident.


    Like come on man, how many chances is enough? If there’s no real consequences for people’s actions, they just do whatever they please. Actions have consequences.




  • Transactions are the safe way of doing it.

    You can also return * to see the changes, or add specific fields.

    Like for example:

    Begin; Update users Set first_name=‘John’ Where first_name=‘john’ Returning *;

    Then your Rollback; Or Commit;

    So you’d see all rows you just updated. You can get fancy and do a self join and see the original and updated data if you want. I like to run an identifying query first, so I know hey I should see 87 rows updated or whatever.

    Haven’t had any issues with table locks with this, but we use Postgres. YMMV.











  • I agree, I think it does more harm than good.

    A repost bot could provide some value if it’s reposting say news articles or sports scores. Even then you would need to find a way to make sure the posts have some value and are not just spam. However if the purpose of the post was to provide some sort of advice to the OP, the repost is worthless.
