For anyone who's fooled around with them, how is the language?

At least when silly developers try to do business logic in the procs…

At my current job I do a lot of data mining so it's pretty natural to put the logic into the SPs. I've really only started to play with it, but I expect to speed-up my applications a lot. Moving loops into SPs when doing zillions of iterations should be a huge performance boost.
I'm just saying that sql + stored proc extensions are built for manipulating a database, not general purpose computing and busines logic, so it's inevitably a bit ugly. I'm not saying you should never do it. It's kind of like the trade-off between programmer power and computer power. As computers get faster, the programmer becomes the weak link and we try to use tools that push the extra work off on the computer. But if you're in a situation where you can improve performance safely by doing it the hard way then it's got to be done :) I just don't want to be the one doing it :P

Re:That document I linked was actually not that useful. Those guys could use an editor, trust me.

Anyhow, stored procedures are good to go. Be sure to update the MySQL ODBC driver if that's what you're using, because otherwise you may have problems with SP's.

Re:Bah, no good info online that I could find on stored procedures. There's at least one book out listed as in-stock at BookPool.

Edit: MySQL's looong PDF on stored procedures (http://dev.mysql.com/tech-resources/articles/mysql-storedprocedures.pdf). Looks like a good place to start!

Re:Our new database server is supposed to be here "any day now" so I may experiment with it a bit before putting it in service.
Re:Production version is out, wo0t! Now to find a good tutorial on stored procedures…
Re:So it's a couple of months later, anybody? I have a running in parallel for testing purposes. I think there's now a "RC" version out now ("release candidate").

A propos, any good places to learn about MySQL 5's stored procedure support?

Re:Yeah the stored procedures part has got me excited too. I'm still working on getting us MySQL 4 (yeah…I know, I said the same thing) here at work, so I haven't touched on it yet. I might try it at home tonight.

Live long people!]]> Q: I know this was posted in the other but I thought I might get a better response if I post my own. My brother and I want to play together before the goes away. He started the download and of course it took hours and hours to download. So, by the time he finished the was closed and he couldnt get in and create an account. If anyone would be willing to PM me their account when not using it anymore or I would still appreciate it. Thanks.

Live long people!

Re:im not sayign your post isnt true but after just reading on a lot of forums to try and make a decision on buying the game…

i have seen every plea in the book to try and get a key….its kind of funny actually with the thinks they come up with.

Re:Lol sorry man no one in their right mind is going to give away their key to you.
Like the dude above me said, you'll have to get one from EBAY illegally or something.

I'm glad I got in during the stress test.

Re:Yeah I know… I did it fine.. my younger brother didnt do it right. :) But we'd like to play together if possible before the is gone…. was just hoping that someone created an account and didnt successfully download the file or played and decided they didnt like the game and wouldnt mind giving away their name and psswd. Who knows…
Re:You were supposed to get the account before you download. Or download while waiting to get an account. Their signup page was readily available tuesday morning.

However if you are in dire need to get into the your only solution is to buy working accounts from ebay. Which I totally don't support.

[163] [beta] http://www.ssnsoftware.com/nv-driver-163-69-beta-good-163-beta/ http://www.ssnsoftware.com/nv-driver-163-69-beta-good-163-beta/#comments Thu, 08 Jul 2010 14:57:31 +0000 admin http://www.ssnsoftware.com/nv-driver-163-69-beta-good-163-beta/ Q: Just wondering if I use the new driver (163.69), when I return to the campus and plug in my new 8800GTS installed: D
Best Answer: Ubuntu is a great OS! I run it on my computer in the background with Windows 7 and I love using it for servers and so forth. Wether it will run with your printer I'm not sure I would go to your printers brand of website and find out there if it isn't listed call or post in there forums.
Re:is it me or is the description/position of the "GPU FAN SETTINGS" in these drivers are mixed up?

on the left they have "Direct fan Control", but then u roll over it with ur mouse it gives the description for "Automatic fan control" and same for the "Automatic fan Control" selection box

do we have some nubs at nvidia making these drivers?

Re:And now they've re-released it a day later, now with WHQL certification.
Re:"Added PureVideo? HD decode acceleration for GeForce 8600, 8500 and 8400 series GPUs."

Do the 8800 series have that functionality too?

Re:certainly if you play any of these games

"Improved compatibility for The Way It?s Meant To Be Played? game titles: BioShock, Crysis, Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, Hellgate: London, and World in Conflict."

Re:nice. i guess theres no harm trying, esp since i want to try out that new crysis demo when it comes out, and the drivers say some things were optimized for crysis.
Re:I just installed the new and my performance index score on Vista jumped up from 5.1 to 5.5 on my 7600GT. I also noticed my framerates and overall gaming experience has improved in WoW. I was previously using the latest stable driver from Nvidia.
Re:It works as well as 163.44 and 163.67 for my 8600GT in Vista x64.
